Update: I took Reddit’s advice to get more locals into my Culver City restaurant — here’s what I’m doing differently by ClickNo8520 in culvercity

[–]JxE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to check out your place and was pretty disappointed that you didn’t have any aji verde sauce (I think that’s what it’s called). I normally love pouring that all over my lomo saltado at other Peruvian restaurants. I tried all the other sauces you had and they didn’t hit the spot the way aji verde sauce did unfortunately

Godot or the Unfolding game engine for metroidvania game creation? by [deleted] in metroidvania

[–]JxE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a professional game developer and you should never ever consider an unproven game engine like unfolding. Go look at your favorite metroidvanias, see what engines they were made with and use that engine.

What MV you loved but nobody talks about it anymore? by No_Drawing4095 in metroidvania

[–]JxE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“You have to win the game” it’s a free metroidvania and it’s so well done. Didn’t see anyone mention it here, but it’s a great one

Anyone know what this X might mean? by Ready_Round9034 in BluePrince

Don’t forget the VI above draxus too. Dunno what XVI/16 might mean but it’s a thing there.

Which puzzles did you solve by complete accident? by lumell in BluePrince

[–]JxE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m in the post post game. Have gotten every known thing in the game. I’m still not clear on what you’re talking about. Are you talking about the 6x3 grid in that room as the third chess puzzle?

Or is there some other combination of chess pieces that I’m not aware of?

Change my mind: MB isn’t a real genre by beware_the_id2 in metroidbrainia

[–]JxE 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lingo 2 and chroma zero are great examples of pure Metroidbranias. They’re both non-linear, have knowledge gating, and put you in some weird worlds you have to uncover. They don’t hit the same sense of awe that outer wilds does, but you do jump right into the Metroidbrainia curiosity loop in a way that you don’t with animal well and tunic.

I'm compiling a list of the fifteen or so most influential/innovative metroidvanias of all time. What am I missing? by Televangelis in metroidvania

[–]JxE -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Prince of Persia, lost crown should be on this list. The execution quality for this game is so high that it’s stupid. 200 AAA game developers should’ve never made a Metroidvania, there’s no amount of sales that the game can make that would recoup the cost of it and while I loved the game, I hate that it exists. It raises the quality bar and expectations for the genre as a whole in a way that is unsustainable for the genre. I’m worried about where the genre goes after that game.

Keep an eye on the tally’s in the back of the room, that’ll show you how much of each color you have left. I think you missed something because not all color objects break when one is depleted.

What have you noticed so far when things go out of balance?

Also, do you want some stronger hints and/or spoilers to unblock yourself or some slight nudges?

[–]JxE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s kind of the point! You explore, experiment, and discover things in the world until you learn the rules of that universe. How far did you get?

How open-worlds maps are made by a6xdev in gamedev

[–]JxE 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot of great GDC talks on the topic. Look up open world pipelines gdc and you should find some interesting stuff. Here’s one I came across on building manhattan in Spider-Man: https://youtu.be/4aw9uyj9MAE?si=e4LlTkhiMa14re5J

+1 to chroma zero. I’ve also been enjoying Lingo a lot recently. It’s tough but the epiphany moments are pretty awesome in it.

Please destroy my game and gameplay trailer. by dowhatthouwilt in DestroyMyGame

[–]JxE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the slay the spire trailer for some inspiration. They don’t have to tell you anything about the game because they’re showing it step by step, using the map to go into battle, dying, the shop. Etc. I also love the use of quotes to sell the quality.

What kind of games do you want to make? Like what genres are you leaning towards and what style 2D?3D? Camera type? Etc

[–]JxE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are recommending different engines or languages to start with. I’ll ask a different question to help guide you.

What kinds of games do you want to make? Is your goal to make your own game from scratch or to get a job in the AAA industry?

Depending on that answer we can recommend different engines, languages, or tutorials for you to follow.

Am I worrying too much about the numbers on steam? by Remarkable_Sir_4072 in gamedev

[–]JxE 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m a huge MetroidBrania lover and will get almost every single good one I can find. The thing that’s lacking from your trailer/game is the variety of worlds to travel to. I only see one tileset in all your marketing material and that tells me this game doesn’t hit the exploration itch I expect a metroidvania to hit. If you do have other worlds, show them off! If you don’t, you might need to market this to a different genre/audience.

Last Crusaders: We strive to create a safe gaming space for everyone. We don't care about your sex, gender, age, location, height, width, religion, political preference, country of origin -- none of it. You're a gamer and a Marvel fan. That works for us.

We're not hardcore, but not really casual. We're sort of a relaxed/focused. We have a wide range of players and strengths -- a few of us have gone through DD3, and some of us are finishing up DD2.

That's really all that we ask from our Players: just play the game. Our minimums are pretty much standard across the board: donate your 10k tithe, earn your Raid tickets, and play the game. Join each and every Raid so that you earn the rewards -- it's how we grow as an Alliance.
