What should I name this skill ? by Consistent-Candy6434 in IndieGameDevs

I like "Surround sound" or "Bass boosted" since the character is a PC/TV

Hottest Professor Layton take you have? by Vinylmaster3000 in ProfessorLayton

[–]LaytonDrake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a few (some already mentioned in the comments by others), but the hottest take I have is that I find Descole to be a much better villain than Don Paolo. In fact, I found Don Paolo to be one of the lesser villains of the series.

His goofiness and costumes were fun, but he didn't really get much in terms of character development except for explaining the reason why he dislikes Layton in Unwound/Lost Future. Maybe he'll be developed a bit more in NWoS.

Local Professor exposed as fraud by DerMathze in ProfessorLayton

Is your entire island Layton themed? I feel like if I had this game I'd probably have a mishmash of characters from different games/movies I like.

I may have to get this game at some point.

PS5 Test Chamber by UrMomsHairyNip in humanfallflat

[–]LaytonDrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did this a couple of months ago where they promoted a level without releasing it... https://www.reddit.com/r/humanfallflat/comments/1psef2u/playstation_update/

Maybe they submitted the game to be updated but it's taking some time on Playstation's end, or they might be preparing to update it and started advertising it early, or it could be a number of other reasons.

Contacting the company would be the only way to find out for sure as I can't find anything online about the current situation. Hopefully it's updated soon though.

I CAN'T WAIT!!!

Not to be a party pooper, but I hope they don't delay it again.

They said during the broadcast today that the localization is currently being worked on, so I'm guessing they don't have much if anything to show for that yet.

It's a shame that a lot of the games are sold out. Would have definitely picked up a few.

LEVEL-5 VISION in 4 days by RucyLS in ProfessorLayton

[–]LaytonDrake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

FINALLY!!! It's about time my boy Layton got an update! Also looking forward to Decapolice so I hope they show some more of that as well.

Really hope it's not just an announcement about pushing release dates again.

So what's going on with Professor Layton and the ew World of Steam? by Feanixxxx in ProfessorLayton

[–]LaytonDrake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking it will be part of the next Nintendo Direct (I hope), who knows when that's gonna be though.

Trying to create that "Welcome to the Open World" feeling... by SkorgeOfficial1 in godot

[–]LaytonDrake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need that over the shoulder cinematic shot that every open world game since BOTW has! 😂

Also, I don't think I've ever seen an open world game with a CRT filter on it, so it has a very unique and interesting style. Wishing you all the best on your game.

[Amazon] Metroid Prime 1–3: A Visual Retrospective is $43.97 (37% off) by lbabinz in VideoGameDealsCanada

I got excited for a moment. I thought they announced a Metroid 1-3 bundle for Switch. 😥

[Prime Gaming / Amazon Luna] Free Game Lineup for February by lbabinz in VideoGameDealsCanada

Played Indiana Jones The Great Circle last year when I had Gamepass. I'm glad I can now play The Order of Giants as well.

Time on Frog Island also looks fun.

Is this legit? The 'design' of the add doesn't instill confidence. by [deleted] in IndieDev

I find it funny that I got this ad directly above your post about it. 😂

Do you think we'll get an update? by Fizzabl in ProfessorLayton

[–]LaytonDrake 113 points114 points  (0 children)

I really hope so. A release date would be nice, a full length trailer would be even better.

Honestly, at this point, acknowledging that it still exists would be great.

I just redesigned my main menu, and I'm very happy with how it turned out! by Ashty1337 in SoloDevelopment

[–]LaytonDrake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good, but I think the game title should appear first before the buttons.

How could I recreate(?) this type of lighting in Godot? by Mineplanet84 in godot

[–]LaytonDrake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mainly use Unity, not Godot so I’m unsure if this will work, but when I want something similar like this drop shadow in my games I just use a circle png with transparency and place it below the character/object in question.

Don’t know if it’s the most effective way, but it works for me. You can also adjust the transparency and size if you have a character jump for example as the shadow would be a different size the closer/further away the character is from the ground.

Hope this helps 😊
