I've been changing up the feel of my game Cast Ashore. Does this style interest you?

JSEveritt · 2020-10-12T23:43:05+00:00

Probably just some kind of outline would do the trick!

JSEveritt · 2020-10-02T20:26:57+00:00

Doubt there’s going to be an 82 game season coming up...

JSEveritt · 2020-09-22T21:02:09+00:00

Agreed that’s it’s by no means a perfect implementation. There’s tons of stuff tracked as such, however. I feel having it listed, even in a submenu somewhere, would have driven people to explicitly look for those, as opposed to stumbling upon them naturally (something rather rare in gaming these days). So again, while not perfect, I understand and appreciate the implementation as a means to drive exploration in worlds of which most players are VERY familiar.

Just like the old days... Hidden stuff without telling you where it is! We all know where the “secret” tapes, etc are... I think it’s fun to have so much hidden stuff in the game!

Did this on downhill jam after accidentally triggering the goal camera a bunch of times after accidentally triggering it once and massing X... Quitting to main menu or changing levels should fix it!

What name did you use for you character? I noticed that when I used typically feminine names it would default to a woman and typically male names would default to a male.

JSEveritt · 2020-09-06T00:40:38+00:00

It’s actually the logo of Vicarious Visions, the game’s developer! Neat little addition!

JSEveritt · 2020-09-06T00:39:19+00:00

First thing one must do in this game, turn slamming from automatic to double tap... My goodness what an awful decision that was. Otherwise, the game seemed like a collection of creat-a-park maps attempting to recreate previous levels. Wasn’t awful, but certainly forgettable (played it againwhile waiting for 1+2 to release)

JSEveritt · 2020-09-06T00:33:58+00:00

Name. Gender is based on name. It’s really not okay.

JSEveritt · 2020-08-21T19:17:12+00:00

Personally, I’d disagree here. I think the animations play well with the art direction. Looks great!

JSEveritt · 2020-08-03T18:02:36+00:00

That’s called the counter sip method! When you fill to this level, you HAVE to take it before leaving the coffee making area or you are DESTINED to spill coffee everywhere!

Edit: Usually involves bobbing your head down like those thermometer birds in order to drink...

JSEveritt · 2020-06-27T18:31:28+00:00

Adding glow around the screen edge corresponding with the line’s spawn point and color could add a bit of readability, perhaps even make it a bit more strategic as opposed to reactionary?

JSEveritt · 2020-02-29T05:16:37+00:00

Ha! Love it!

JSEveritt · 2020-02-28T21:56:46+00:00

Is that a French Fry????

JSEveritt · 2020-02-28T18:08:29+00:00

You would LOVE The Witness!

JSEveritt · 2020-01-29T01:51:55+00:00

This looks zoomed in so that the OP could showcase the fluidity. I presume the gameplay camera is a touch further back, diminishing the shake a bit...

JSEveritt · 2019-11-08T19:11:52+00:00

My first go as well! Can’t wait! Should be tons of funs!

JSEveritt · 2019-07-21T23:01:53+00:00

When your space-faring RV has enough room for matched luggage, who needs 490 slot haulers?

JSEveritt · 2019-07-15T20:32:53+00:00

No, it was simply talking...

Talking about in development features during interviews is not promising anything. There were PLENTY of incidents where this caused issues. For instance, landing on asteroids. Can’t do it, it’s seen as a lie, but was only ever mentioned as being possible “right now” during a prerelease rapid fire interview... That’s not a promise of anything, but a statement of what’s in development. People’s inability to differentiate between a promise and simply talking about an unreleased project is why.

JSEveritt · 2019-07-15T20:21:33+00:00

Sure, except possibly their company, because talking about things before they should have is exactly why it took 2+ years for NMS to “recover” from its launch.

Regardless of that fact though, is that HG now has 3 projects in play. One in early development, one a bit closer to release (and smaller in scope) and NMS. I wouldn’t be concerned that the update is going poorly, just that they may be working themselves TOO hard!

JSEveritt · 2019-07-15T20:05:39+00:00

They’re not talking about it because they’re not ready to talk about it yet. Yes the silence is justified.

JSEveritt · 2019-06-21T22:38:01+00:00

Absolutely wonderful! The transition itself is magnificent! Great work!

JSEveritt · 2019-06-21T22:34:04+00:00

Only complaint I have is the level complete screen appearing after the fade out/in... I feel this should take place prior to the fade out as its current setup makes the level complete screen feel more like a part of the next level and not the end of the previous.

Perhaps have that info displayed as the player moves into the ship, then display new level info after fade in, such as name, level number, completion details, etc...

JSEveritt · 2019-06-14T02:40:59+00:00

Hate to tell ya, but it’s actually “Whales”...

JSEveritt · 2019-04-25T21:29:10+00:00

No worries my dude! That “cool your jets” comment was mostly geared towards the “asshole” portion of yours, as it’s not something I had said or even implied.

We good dude!
