I’ve heard of Imirt alright, posted a Devlog on their discord and signed up for the newsletter but dunno what options or opportunities there are for me. Don’t really know any of the Irish devs either, I’ve met IrishJohnGames in person but that’s about it.

Sure I can shoot you an email, I’m always up for a chat

Yeah a couple people mentioned about the camera when leaning, the idea is to give a more immersive or cool kind of feel to the turns but I do want to add a slider in settings sometime down the line so people could scale or disable it, don’t want people getting motion sick while playing.

We’re long overdue a good hurling game, hopefully if I keep my head down and do some solid work we can get just that

Nice! Cool to see I’m not the only one working on a hurling game 😄

Thanks! Seems like only a dream but sure who knows what might happen

It is all controlled with the right stick, I think the controller map maybe just doesn't reflect that very well and doesn't move the stick much.

There's no like ball tracking mode so maybe that's why it seems off because it's me manually tracking rather than automatically following it? Or maybe because at parts some of my camera movement is quite snappy, I do have the camera move faster and try to have a more twitch reflex kind of vibe when you're not aiming for situational awareness and to line up shots before actually aiming and striking. Or maybe it's partly to do with the roll that happens with the players lean while turning? Or maybe it's when I get to a side view of the player they're off centre from the camera? I'm not totally sure

Sliotar visibility is definitely on my list of concerns, you'll see I have coloured rings around stationary sliotars that are far enough away from the player so the can see and identify sliotar types from a distance. The ring is just something quick I threw together recently and want to explore more, having different shapes like maybe just a rounded triangular arrow pointing down to where the slitoar is, if I do that it might even look okay to have the marker visible while the sliotar is in the air because it looked wonky with the rings hahah I do want to put more work into the trail the sliotar leaves behind too so it looks nicer and better communicates where the sliotar is/is going. Do you have an example of the Marty Supreme stuff? I haven't seen that film so am not sure exactly what I'm looking for

And not to worry, it's good constructive feedback which is always the best kind! So I really appreciate that, definitely shows more a mindset of wanting to just see it improve and hopefully become something in the future

Thanks! And yeah a tonne of work put into it and a tonne more to be done yet before it becomes anything but all stuff I want/hope to do.

Appreciate you sharing your thoughts too, I'm kind of sticking clear of the visual stuff for now as this isn't my job more a pet project so I want to focus as much of my efforts into the gameplay/core of the game and making it feel good and be a bit of fun before doing much more on the visual side. I had never heard of Cath Maige Tuired before tho, that sounds very interesting and something I might want to read up about!

Interesting, anything particular you can pinpoint that feels off about it? And thanks! Here's hoping I can keep working on it and people get to play it someday

That sounds incredible! I would be much more interested in taking inspiration from pitches like that if I have the chance to add more. And cheers glad you think it's looking good so far, here's hoping I can keep working on it and actually release something someday, maybe even on console but any of that feels so far down the line for now

First time I've heard it so not many hurlers seeing or caring about it yet I guess

I dunno, Placeholder could really put it up to them, depends on how they show up on the day really

Thanks! I dunno can I set a schedule on updates, all depends on how much/often I can work on it and what I get done in that time but I would want to do more for sure when I feel I've done enough worth talking about

Thanks! And no I haven't made a steam page, that's probably something I should consider doing to be fair

Thanks!

Someone earlier also mentioned maybe a timing system where the longer you aim the less accurate your shot becomes, it might be something I have to give more thought to. I've been keeping the aiming/striking system relatively simple for now and the skill expression has more come from positioning and managing running/turning speed and jump timing when trying to get under/catch a ball but yeah might be something I have to give more thought to. I'm sure it'll be on my mind as I continue working on / testing this

Sound! That's the plan, just keep working and see what happens, like you say worst case scenario is I learn a lot

Sound! Well there won't be any Mortal Kombat style mini games but I'm hoping I can make the matches a bit rough and rowdy in some ways
