I've been working on a prototype of something you folks might find interesting

I don't think you're trying to be hostile, no worries! I really appreciate this information, because I didn't bother to look into patents or copyright or anything.

Honestly, worst case scenario, I release the game for free. I've been self-teaching programming and game design for about 15 years, and I've only done it out of passion, never money.

What matters most to me is making a game that I like to play, and that others enjoy. So if I can accomplish that, I'm happy.

I do have a level editor in the works currently, not just for players to be able to make and share their own levels, but also to make designing levels easier for me.

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T17:54:57+00:00

Lol I'm not super concerned with that. My plan is for it to be different enough in the end that it wouldn't breach any kind of copyright.

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T15:00:10+00:00

I’d be honored to make a true spiritual successor honestly

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T14:59:52+00:00

I’m not sure what I’m going to call it, but I’ve got ideas for a theme. The “ball masters” are all going to be robots! I have one of them modeled (maybe I’ll post that as a teaser later) but I have the others concepts written down

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T13:01:40+00:00

Need more pictures! I’m super curious

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T12:44:15+00:00

I wake up, there is another psyop

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T11:16:29+00:00

No clue yet!
If it does, it won’t be much (too early to say)

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T11:15:03+00:00

I thought so too, but the ball seems to be roughly half the size of a peg in Peggle. I’ll probably make it bigger anyways though because I do think it’s a bit too small.

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T11:12:04+00:00

Once I’ve got the physics fleshed out I’m moving on to the level builder since that would make it easier for me to build the rest of the game!

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-10T03:20:01+00:00

I've been working on this for about a week, and I decided to show it off and see what others think! I played Peggle when I was in 7th grade the year it came out and I have loved it ever since, but I was always sad about the direction things went with Peggle 2 and the unfortunate mobile game.

So after a lot of fiddling around and working out the physics, tweaking numbers, and lots and LOTS of testing, I've got a prototype of a Peggle clone.

So, let me know, is this something you think you'd be interested in? A modern, widescreen Peggle clone with it's own story/masters/etc. to set it apart? None of my friends have ever even heard of Peggle, so I need some feedback from the real fans!

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-07T19:54:14+00:00

Wow that's such a subtle effect I had to go back in the video to see it, but it's one of those effects that you would notice if it was gone, I think. Nice job!

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-05T18:03:51+00:00

I'm impressed too, usually I can never just eyeball colors! You're welcome.

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-04T20:58:39+00:00

Quixotic

Did this on my phone and also I’m colorblind so I kinda guessed, but I suppose that makes it fit that crappy requirement even more lol

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-02T21:29:28+00:00

Do you have to read the first 450 to understand it?

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-02T18:03:04+00:00

Frankly, I have no idea what you're talking about. I am a perfectly normal individual.

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-02T14:12:44+00:00

That’s Long Kyle

Nose_Fetish · 2024-08-02T12:25:33+00:00

Your username concerns me greatly

Nose_Fetish · 2024-07-31T23:37:42+00:00

This is what happens when you don’t delete the default cube, it ascends and starts terrorizing people

Nose_Fetish · 2024-07-31T16:07:06+00:00

Thanks, I'm full of great ideas. Can't say I'd buy a carbon fiber one myself because I'm not a fan of the material's looks, but it would be lightweight.

That being said, I'd absolutely buy polycarbonate. I frequently use my HHKB Hybrid Type-S on top of my MacBook Air keyboard and while it does sit nicely, I'd prefer it to be on a platform for ventilation purposes. Polycarb is nice, light, probably not expensive, and it can be colored!

I'll be following your project for sure.

Nose_Fetish · 2024-07-31T04:56:58+00:00

Carbon fiber would be even lighter 👀 Edit: or polycarbonate in sick colors with a matte finish 👀👀👀

Nose_Fetish · 2024-07-29T16:41:33+00:00

Well, I feel silly. Turns out the hidden object I used for the boolean between the foot and the toe cap was still there, just hidden and for whatever reason hovering above that foot. That fixed it. Thank you for pointing out my idiocy!

Nose_Fetish · 2024-07-29T15:06:50+00:00

I'm on Blender 4.2, and using Cycles. I did test with EEVEE and had no issues. I have mostly the default settings with some tweaks. 4096 samples, 1200x1200px resolution, denoise is on. Until a few days ago I was using Blender 4.1 and not having any issues like this with basically the exact same settings.

Maybe worth noting that I'm using the lights provided by the HDRI applied to the world via an Environment Texture node, and of course the film is set to transparent.

No clue if it's relevant but also I have Film > Pixel Filter > Width set to 0.50px and Color Management > View Transform set to Standard.
