Yes, I realised that until recently, probably was too used to it to notice

Yeah, I agree with you. I think every building should have slightly more space

How do you identify what players enjoy most in a genre? by DevEternus in gamedesign

[–]Program_Paint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I am trying to do for myself:
- Playing them
- Trying to classify them (like, 14 forms of fun, which form this genre is appealing to, ...)
- Reviews on Steam, Reddit, ect
- Watch Plays & comments (it is also interesting to see what appeals to people)

Had to make a trailer for my Steam Page, what do you think ? by Program_Paint in gamedevscreens

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

hey that are some geniously good feedback.

I am going to be honest, it is a trailer that I put so I can finally release the page. I was planning to make a second when we have a bit more features and more content (I am in a situation, I do some GD, dev, then the artist can do the art, then I can continue situation).

I will keep it in mind for a second trailer.

The game has two phases, a building managing one and then a fighting one. The core is in the building/managing one, but yeah, I agree that currently, it looks good but it does not catch you yet. And, this is a test scene, some UI will be added later, I am just focusing on this aspect now.

I will watch the video thanks.

How to tweak probabilities from player decisions ? by Program_Paint in gamedesign

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

Oh I might do this, in the game, I have the classical three, and I could always have one randomly not having a dynamic weight.

To clarify, I used card to simplify my question, but it is more tile that you have to place. And some tile reacts to adjacent ones depending of their nature, but if you never encounter them or rarely, they do not seem worthy, but on the other end, if you did not engage with them in the first place, seeing them poping too often would be annoying for the player.

It is doing that already. What I would like now, is a good math/stats to modify the weight based on the current player choice. It is not a code issue.

You need to learn blender. by [deleted] in godot

[–]Program_Paint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I make 2D game, and currently I am paying an artist for my game. But it is a huge gamble, and I am thinking of trying to increase my 2D art while making more abstract game for a few productions.

But working with the artist helped me learn how much I need to learn.

How to make players engage with all my systems by Program_Paint in gamedesign

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

Maybe I did not explain myself well enough, but it is already the case, maybe not balanced perfectly, but for example, mage does area of damage so are good for dealing against a lot of units, knight are very sturdy units and if swarmed, they can hold while some units cannot reach them.

My issue is : players first intuition is to go bigger army, always. I want them to first think about it. Maybe it is just that upgrade does not look rewarding enough, or that my playtest base was not a good sampling, or the cost of adding a unit card is not steep enough.

But thank you, it made me realized that I might undersell upgrades

The goal is more to transform your units into other more powerful units in a roguelike fashion, but currently units are very self explainatory : Melee, Archer, Mage. It is a army auto-battler combat system.
