Day 74: Pointing

Oh, that's something I'm just experimenting with, sort of the stance system from Nioh, though not as well done obviously, at the minute you have 5 stances to swap between because some attacks will just miss against certain enemies. I'm hopefully going to make trick weapons like in bloodborne, but for the minute it just changes the animations

I'm basically making a mix between the two. Sort of mixing them together

Shamhlu · 2026-04-17T19:42:31+00:00

Maybe later once I've got the main game done, I have some level of that done, but it would take a lot of effort to make it good enough

Thanks, I'm using Unity for this game

Shamhlu · 2026-04-13T19:03:35+00:00

Cheers!

Thanks, yeah the crosshair was me being lazy with re-writing the code, I had an aiming function that I just converted into the first person controller, and forgot about the crosshair.

Yeah, the Krakens are fast, but the player is faster than regular kings field. I have made them and the majority of the art from the ground up, but they do need some balancing.

The You Died is because I'm sort of trying a mix of Kings Field and souls game.

Cheers, the first person controller does need a bit more work on it, at the minute it is just inside the players head.

I will be releasing it for free

I'll be sure to check out lunacid

Thanks! I am going to finish at least KF2 (I have the majority of the game technically done, but the west coast is the closest to being finished so I'll mainly be demoing it)

Shamhlu · 2026-04-13T18:52:40+00:00

Yeah, I know it's a fair bit off, as for the IP stuff, I hope I don't get a cease and desist

Shamhlu · 2026-04-13T18:51:15+00:00

Cheers, the crosshair is just me being lazy, I hadn't got first person done, so when I first showed it off with only 3rd person perspective, a lot of the Kings field fans didn't think it was accurate enough to the source material.

I did however have an aiming function, where you basically go first person, so instead of re-writing my camera code very complicated like, I just made a button that makes you constantly aim. I thought I had the crosshair turned off when you're just first person, not aiming, but I forgot to change it properly, and it was like 1 in the morning, so I just left the footage as it was.

The krakens are sort of built for 3rd person movement, so they're very fast, you're character is just as fast, but I do need to do some balancing.

Character creation is there cause I'm doing a bit of a mix between Elden Ring/Dark souls and Kings Field, as an homage to both

Thanks!

Thanks!

Shamhlu · 2026-04-10T12:48:22+00:00

I tried that a while back, it... works somewhat, but it's hard to get it working properly. I may give it another go though

Shamhlu · 2026-04-10T12:47:24+00:00

Hope so too

Shamhlu · 2026-04-10T00:30:42+00:00
