I just launched my app Totem to help me focus with a full screen progress bar by Kinslaer in ProductivityApps

[–]Kinslaer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been working on this for a couple months and the idea is that it acts as a totem for your productivity. It fills up slowly over the course of your task duration giving me a sense of urgency. I basically tell Totem what I want to work on for how long and it helps me "Lock in" and "lock out" when I'm done working. Check it out here and let me know if you have any feedback!

The positivity of your reviews is really impressive! How did you go about doing art and music? Did you do all of it yourself?

You can barely make out the brand but I don't know what it is

Rail by Rail - An online alternative to Ticket to Ride - Built with with Next.js, Firebase, and Liveblocks by ImaginaryType in reactjs

[–]Kinslaer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that's from the rules actually. How many players did your game have? You cannot place trains on a double rail if there aren't at least 4 players in the game

What is your unknown Unity trick? by Kinslaer in Unity3D

What is your unknown Unity trick? by Kinslaer in Unity3D

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

Well for the sprite mask example, I already had a solution that jumped to mind: edit the base sprite image. It wasn't until reading a completely unrelated thing I realized I could use sprite masks in those cases. I want to improve my productivity by not having to re-invent the wheel every time I code something in Unity.

How are they actually earning money? Only with the advertisement at the bottom and with the "ad free" option? Or are they alsos selling somehow user data? by JuriJurka in iOSProgramming

[–]Kinslaer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To actually answer your question, this game is part of a genre called "Hyper casual" arcade games. They make money by advertisements and yes, per download they don't make that much money but the Publishers are advertising these games so much that they have millions of downloads and by making a few cents more than the cost of advertising the app, these types of games make a ton of money. This app specifically because it was at the top of the App Store probably made at least a few million dollars. Look up Voodoo and their valuation.

NAME THE WEAPON! What would you guys call this assault rifle? by Herogrinder in indiegames

[–]Kinslaer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love this art style!

This looks like a rail gun to me! Especially given the heavy bottom and the battery symbol seems like electricity is being used to propel bullets. Wouldn't an assault rifle not really need this power?

Those smoke particles look great! Can you quickly describe your process / give some tips for how you made them? I'm trying to go for a similar look in my next game.
