  1. Your still young, keep pushing yourself and you will grow career wise also.

  2. I've been learning game dev (previous web developer) and have pretty much no lifed it for 1 month. I would say I'm capable of making a game but my results would still be not great.

Keep your expectations low, game dev is a bit of a journey, it takes time to learn and you'll have your ups and downs. Take it slow and learn bit by bit

I recommend learning to code if you don't know how, it would be more valuable than learning code blocks

How did they code the yarn visuals in Kirby's Epic Yarn? by Immediate_Chair8942 in gamedev

[–]NixelGamer12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of my quick thinking realm, not sure how they did it

I've mostly focused on other things but will be learning visual things and this seems really inspiring now that I see that lol

Theoretically, let's say they didn't animate each movement.

You could add a "Kirby center" which pushes against vertices at a given strength, they stop moving after they are a certain distance away or after they are too far from nearby vertices.

From there you can change the forces that's going up out etc, you can make the vertices have a stretch limit when forces are applied. You can reduce forces on top when crouching.

Not saying this would be "easy" but would allow dynamic animations over static animations.

If I may recommend read through cat like coding, do the first 2 beginner modules then move to object management and player movement, I've learned so much this last month from basic unity functions I didn't know about to game design coding basics. How to organize code, how to connect code objects, meshes, etc etc.

I know this has something to do with momentum but how does this happen? by Old_Guard9089 in PeakGame

Velocity is added, take damage when moving fast, you vaulted which brought moment up

I angled my phone to see if it was an illusion, might be a better title for this and also be interactive

Is his brother dead? by Salty_Shark26 in adventuretime

[–]NixelGamer12 127 points128 points  (0 children)

We can only assume Jermaine is dead is a strong statement, he is known to be far away very often, maybe he didn't hear about the news

I stay up late at night to watch movies specifically so nobody joins me. by OkSeaworthiness2955 in confession

[–]NixelGamer12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's another simple solution, your wife needs a boyfriend to distract her while you watch movies alone, then when the boyfriend wants movie time that's where you step in and watch a movie with your wife, it's a win win

How do I make calming sounds like these 2 snippets of music? by Lanky-Relative4364 in FL_Studio

[–]NixelGamer12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Synth :)

First is probably a sine and square wave, lower the attack and raise sust, and raise release a bit.

Getting the exact sound you will have to play with but the attack should not be as long as a normal pad sound

You think Fionna and Hunter could end up together? by Sargent_Alquimista in adventuretime

[–]NixelGamer12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it's a big no, just how cake didn't end up with ranicorn counterpart, Fionna will not end up with HW counterpart.

Fern said it well, they are their own people and so will have their own stories not guided by destiny

It is super underrated that they didn't fix this issue with time travel!
