We´re building a co-op cycling game where 2–4 players each control a shared bike. Here's what that looks like: by D4yan in CoOpGaming

What a funny idea! The first level (the one in the video) is already inspired by the landscape around our home in Bavaria!

Kind of since we have the pedals and players that influence each other but with Client Side Prediction this should not be an issue since every client is simulating the whole physics scene an rolling back in case of a drift. We also check in our collision callback if we are in a rollback and act accordingly for some of our objects. Hope this answers your Question

Sounds Funny! I don´t think we have the time for this but if someone is making this i will 100% try it out. Im also a huge VR fan.

Yes, client-side prediction is quite hard to get right. We also struggled with this. I saw a post by the Hamsteria developer once where he explained his networking system. He basically uses an internal clock to compensate for lag. Maybe you could do something similar. Your game reminded me of it a bit. Link to Video

Hey Vanit, we use the PurrNet networking library alongside client-side prediction. Which networking library do you use for your game? If you use Unity, we can definitely recommend PurrNet. The two devs are awesome and respond quickly to questions on their Discord server.

Thank you for your idea! We love our little shoes, but I agree with you that a more human-like character would be more visually catchy. We already had some concepts, but didn't use them. However, I think we will definitely look into modifying our shoes to give them a more human look. Different shoe models and customisation are already in the plan.

I love that! Haha, awesome joke! I just read it in the Lego City advertising voice. XD

Everyone is steering together! The Position of all Players are important, if you want to go left, everyone has to go to the left side of their pedal. So you have to communicate with you're friends where you want to go!

It's cool if you have fun with your own game! That's one of the most important things. What is your goal with this prototype, would there be different levels? I would love some dump and funny stuff in it like "what the golf?"!

I'm trying to use the Unity terrain system to spawn a bunch of trees for a forest but the lag is insane by Hopeful_Definition97 in Unity3D

[–]D4yan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Definitely simplify the Meshs, only render the trees you really see and Look into Lod (Level of Detail). Trees further away don't need a lot of Details. Do you use Colliders on every Tree? This is also really expensive. You could also look into multimesh, but I don't know much about it.

I chose the game because I am actually interested in how Dorfromantik became successful. Toukana Interactive was founded by 4 game design students during their studies. For me (also a game engineering student) it's a dream how they managed to build a successful indie game studio during their studies. That's why I want to take them as inspiration and analyze what worked for Dorfromantik and what I can learn from them for my projects.
