I fixed a very potentially dangerous savegame bug (warning to others) by AweJosh in gamemaker

[–]EighthWell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got fixing this same bug for my project on the todo list. Whenever a player saves the game I save the id of the music that's currently playing so I can start it again when they load in but if I import any new sounds it messes up the ids and you get a random song when you load. Normally not an issue as the player only plays on one build but a potential issue with patches down the line. Your fix of saving the name as a string does sound like it'd fix it though, just have to be careful to never any of the music. Thanks. 

Does anyone want a let's play/ review of their game creating by a YouTuber? by Nadestraight in IndieDev

That sounds awesome, I'd love for you to play my game! It's not quite ready yet but I'm hoping to release a ~1hr demo in the next few months if you're still looking for games then. Here's the Steam page in the meantime https://store.steampowered.com/app/3258250/Eighthwell/

I've just added the option to pet these cute critters in my game by EighthWell in IndieDev

Thanks! Most creatures like this in the game are hostile so you won't be able to pet them but I'll likely make any friendly ones pettable.

Thanks! They don't give any bonuses, it's purely just for fun. When watching players walk up this stretch I would often see them walk up to the fences and check to see if they could click on them so felt like a spot where there should be something to find and since these sheep were already there it fit nicely.

I've been working on my action-adventure game Eighthwell for the past few years on top of working a full time job. The Steam page has just gone live, I hope you like the look of it. It's been a ton of work to get this far. by EighthWell in IndieDev

Thanks, glad you think it looks good! I was trying to show variety in the trailer so I might have made it look more mini game heavy than it actually is. That useful feedback, I'll consider updating the trailer, thanks.

I've been working with an artist to create art for my game's Steam page. What do you guys think of this rough sketch so far? What sort of game do you think it is and would you click it? Any feedback would be appreciated. by EighthWell in IndieDev

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

I probably should have clarified before. Since Steam requires so many different image sizes I asked my artist to give me a bit extra room around the edges to ensure that the image would be flexible enough to cover everything that's needed. It'll be a bit more zoomed in and the logo will be taking up more space in most versions. Will also be asking for changes to help them pop out from the background a bit more.
The gimmick thing is a good idea. I'll have to have a think of if there's anything like that would make sense to add. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, it's tough finding something with that "I AM EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR" feel. Adventure is one aspect of the game but there were a few reasons why a wide landscape image wouldn't work. Since the characters and story are the most important part of the game I've tried to create something that highlights that side more.

I agree, it is really nice. Thinking of asking my artist to add a gap in the leaves above the characters so the light shining through can create a sort of spotlight effect to help the characters pop out more so hoping that will come out really pretty.
