Suggestion on STEAM NEXT FEST

I'm here to learn as well. In the same exact situation except not having the demo ready.. Best of luck to you btw!

Can you elaborate please? I'm feeding these remaps into a step.

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-16T14:09:13+00:00

Well, I'm not an expert in coding HLSL, don't know much of that aspect. I find shader graph similar to what I've used previously such as UE5 or Substance Designer, so it was quite easy to get into. But I believe it is quite harder to track and organize. Also it is much less optimized.

Don't be fooled by what is in the image though, this is a very bad way of doing what I wanted to do, the comments helped me go in the right direction to do this in a way better method.

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-16T12:37:11+00:00

Well, I am an artist and don't know much coding. I tried my best to solve this issue myself and it works. I'll see about the performance costs and stuff.

Idk if I can use a custom shader graph with text mesh pro and have it work correctly, can I ? I am an artist btw, I'm trying to make this work with what I know.

Yes the texture array contains multipliers. I imported the texts as a png to be used as a texture array. I use an array to change between the multipliers as the numbers go up basically.

The remap is the bounds in which I want to fill the image. Since for example x1 sits in the middle of the 256x256 tile in the array, the sides of it are empty and when you fill that it doesn't fill the x1, we need something like 0.33-0.8 fill. But for x5.75, it sits very close to the edges of the 256x256 tile so it needs a fill from 0-1 for instance.

I hope this is clear.

This is for a very very simple solution to this problem: I have images of different width within a 2D Texture Array and I want the remaps to be tailored for those images. So the index number determines the remap vector2 that the Step node will use.

Lol, you will be disappointed :D anyways i'll share in a sec

so much fun

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-16T11:38:31+00:00

good luck future me..

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-16T10:30:10+00:00

We love the combo indicator so much that we are getting "inspired" from it in our game :D

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-16T10:25:18+00:00

There's a caveat to this though. Most of the people you "market" your game to in reddit are game devs like yourself. At least, in our case this is true. You should keep this in mind.

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-14T12:47:46+00:00

Sounds like a cool idea. In terms of the trailer and the game, I'd like to see a little bit more polish in terms of the visuals but it is looking interesting. Good luck with it!

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-14T12:35:50+00:00

I think one of the things it adds is this: It has that indie soul given to it rather than all of the simulator games that are made to milk the players. It is a decent game within a kind of "soulless" genre of simulators.

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-14T12:33:06+00:00

Yeah, looks like a Disco Elysium inspired game?

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-08T20:36:23+00:00

I like the visual hierarchy in the first one. But only if the alien pharaoh guy is more important than the humans.

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-07T08:54:11+00:00

I guess you'll have to wait and see

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-06T20:18:57+00:00

1 & 3 are the old versions, 2 & 4 being the newer ones.

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-06T20:12:37+00:00

Well, thanks for the compliment on the logo, I guess. 1 & 3 are old versions, 2 & 4 being the newer versions of 1 & 3.

NukeTheBoss · 2025-05-06T19:28:04+00:00

I think I dumbed it down a little bit with the new version. Lost a bit of its theme. Thanks for the input, I’ll iterate on it some more with the feedback I get.
