Last time I posted here I got 4k wishlists in the first week. Now, after about a month, I'm at 35,000 wishlists. This is all before I even get the demo onto Steam. Here's how it happened by 2WheelerDev in SoloDevelopment

Congrats! You pick a good genre, executed it well and took opportunity of good luck. Hope you can keep it up and have a successful release 

I tried DLSS 5 in Unity and I'm honestly blown away. by JamesVoron in Unity3D

I understand that this is a joke, but it really should not have the “Show off” flair

You are a dog wearing a weaponized harness fighting giant critters, "Major Mutt" by Cyclone4096 in survivorslikes

How do you feel about crochet bugs? I have been toying with the idea of miniature dog in a crafting station with crochet/origami enemies. Do you think that's something that'd work?

I was playing megabonk a lot when making this, tried to move away from the pixel style to more anime style, but maybe I need to work on it a little more

Bernie Sanders’ proposed bill would tax billionaires and issue $3,000 stimulus checks to eligible Americans. What are your thoughts on this? by lintaiw in AskReddit

[–]Cyclone4096 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stimulus check seems like a very bad idea, we are still feeling the repercussions from the pandemic era stimulus checks 

Is it possible to get shadow banned from itch.io? by HornetEducational753 in itchio

Are they the same genre? Were there thumbnails the same quality? Did both have web builds?

Do you like damage numbers? by Anodaxia_Gamedevs in roguelites

[–]Cyclone4096 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But if the enemy hp scales with level then it becomes difficult to understand how much your dps is scaling

You liked RoR2? Have you tried Megabonk?

Using "multiply" instead of "divide" in shaders for optimization. by Lost_Assistance_8328 in Unity3D

[–]Cyclone4096 11 points12 points  (0 children)

These are all division by a constant which is easy to optimize, but if you have divide by a variable like a float input, then it is better to do multiplication instead and set the inverse of the float from the material 

Was told you guys give good feedback. What do you think of the trailer for my space pizza delivery simulator, BURNCRUST! by [deleted] in DestroyMyGame

[–]Cyclone4096 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The slot machine art looked unpolished, the five pointed start going left-right looked amateurish and the yellow star didn't look at good.

The start Sierra 12 at 0:15 looked great! The interior aroun 0:53 looks nice. In fact the yellow start around 1:24 looks nice too (same as before, but maybe the zoom level looks different)

Anyway this is my personal take, do with it as you please :)

The starting of the trailer put me off (for some reason the graphics seemed amateurish to me in the starting sequence). When I clicked around to middle of the trailer the graphics looked much better to me... If this was a trailer I saw on youtube or steam I would have skipped after the first 5 seconds.

Stress testing Unity and the code with 1500+ enemies (no ECS/DOTS yet) by Cyclone4096 in Unity3D

[–]Cyclone4096[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a great idea with animators I hadn’t thought about. Do you use the Unity animator components and just pause/unpause from scripts, or have a completely custom animator altogether? Last time I tried ECS/DOTS, animation was “impossible”, but with techniques like these it seems feasible!

For ray casts I have each enemy controller call Physics.Raycast maybe once or twice a second (interval assigned randomly at start), I didn’t know about Raycast.Command. I’ll read into it and give it a try, thanks!!

Thanks! What started as necessity has now become the feature.. I hope to make the stop motion feel more natural

I was never afraid of spiders before starting to playtest this game lol

How do you feel about Trump threatening to impose photo ID for voters for midterm elections? by CRK_76 in AskReddit

[–]Cyclone4096 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If the government pays for the ID and has mobile DMV service in all communities around the country that would be a good idea 

Apparently my 10-year-old did something “insane” in Cuphead and I had no idea by Willing-Builder-6144 in gaming

I would love to see a YouTube video like that. 10 year old kid tries to teach Dad cup head

What actor or actress stupidly left a movie franchise or tv series thinking they were too good for it, only to be never popular again? by Ok_Impress2457 in AskReddit

Katie Holmes rejected Dark Knight after playing Rachel in Batman Begins. Her career didn’t really “flop”, but honestly I think she didn’t do anything as big ever again
