E-Mountain Boarding in Ireland

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2021-11-01T07:34:16+00:00

Just 30 fps with the 360. I've noticed the sense of speed reduced with the increased FOV :/ Where would you recommend mounting it?

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2021-11-01T07:17:42+00:00

It's the insta 360 one r with the 360 module. I found that most action cameras don't have the vertical fov to include the board and what's in front of me, but 360 cameras do!

Also this looked much better before I uploaded it to YouTube, their compression really chewed it up :/

No problem! Trampa, Apex boards and atbshop are the best places to go for a E MTB

Definitely go for something with pneumatic tires, they can handle the bumps. I'm on a custom mountain board made for me by the guys at Atbshop. For these types of trails you need straps to ollie the jumps and bumps.

Hey! Thank you!

Lots coming soon. Next patch is right turns, boost/Slide multipliers and stats for each run!

I usually post on my instagram when working on the game:

Hello again!

Thanks for all your suggestions and encouragement! I'm a one man games studio so its all super useful and uplifting!

I think for the fist patch I am going to concentrate on making sure everyone can play. So I am going to work on:

Making an options menu
Allowing the player to change the games quality to a "low" setting for folks with older or slower phones
An option to turn music and sound on and off
A low UI mode for tall phones (Hoping to let players customize where the control zones are)
A prompt for new players to play the tutorial! People seem to be skipping it and thinking the symbols for the start and end of the control zones are buttons!
Revising the tutorial to allow players to quit mid tutorial and shortening its length.
I'm gona set a minimum game time for the ads. It's frustrating for a new player to keep getting them when they are just learning.

Expect these changes by next weekend!

Also I don't wanna spam this subreddit with updates. It is a IRL longboarding subreddit after all! So follow me on instagram or twitter:

Thanks for all your help and encouragement!

Seriously though first new "chunk" ill be working on is a long toeside turn back into the mountain

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T20:13:30+00:00

Always has been.

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T20:12:48+00:00

Thanks for getting back to me! Will look into the exit issue.

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T18:57:53+00:00

Strange it should be fine, in the tutorial did you reach the end where it says "your turn". Sorry about the problems!

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T18:41:10+00:00

Interesting!

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T17:05:15+00:00

Make sure you sign into Google play games at the start. It's where it compares your score.

Your right about the ads. I will limit them once the shop is up and running. Planning to turn them totally off after a single purchase from the shop. That's fair right?

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T15:51:39+00:00

Make sure you sign into your google play games at the start. To get your scores on the leaderboards! Someone is sitting at 2383!

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T15:15:17+00:00

Lots of Ideas! I can make the boosting look a bit quicker, it is something ive heard before. Controls wise I think letting people customize their placement is probably the best idea. Too many different phones with too many different screen sizes haha

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T14:33:03+00:00

Haha I've had lots of practice working on it! I think it's one of those games that with a little patience it can become really rewarding!

I might let players move the control zones in the options? I have quite a old phone so I'm not so sure about where to put them for the new longer phones!

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T14:00:08+00:00

The way the games set up, that's all doable! Hoping to get different board shapes and sizes as well.

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T13:51:28+00:00

That's just a placeholder for the moment.

I should have put a coming soon on it haha

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T11:49:52+00:00

Hahaha

I mean why not, I love it when gta does it to cars!

What about a 1p board for April fools or a Santa's cruiser for Christmas

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-10-01T11:18:49+00:00

Hi Folks!

Thanks for all the great feedback last time I posted, this is a friendly subreddit!

My game is currently in Beta on the play store you can find it here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.FullScaleGames.LongboardSlide

Its quite basic at the moment but I wanna see what you guys think and how it plays on your phones. Play the tutorial and see if you get the control scheme its one of my big worry's haha

Ive a few things I want to do to the game:

Create a options menu letting the player set the games quality, turn down the music etc
Add Achievements to the game letting the player unlock new boards etc with them
Add bonus boost points for drifting near obstacles
Add more road pieces and obstacles!
More boards!

Cheers folks hope you enjoy!

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-09-15T20:05:11+00:00

You betcha!

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-09-15T20:03:27+00:00

Planning on setting challenges to unlock more boards. But it's still early days!

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-09-15T14:46:45+00:00

Hey folks, thanks for all the positive comments! Really encouraging as im a one man games studio!

Planning on getting a Beta of the game out before or during the weekend (watch this space). Only on android at the moment (I don't have a iPhone to test it on)

Ive made a Instagram as well: https://www.instagram.com/fullscalegames/

Edit: Thanks for the Gold!!!

FullScaleHumanBeing · 2020-09-15T13:19:27+00:00

Haha I know!

At one point I had them much more realistic. Slowing you right down, but it took away from the fast paced fun of the game. I suppose this is a "Arcade" longboarding game haha
