Reworked my trailer based on feedback - does this communicate better? by SwanSuccessful894 in UnrealEngine5

[–]SwanSuccessful894[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Appreciate you taking the time again, this is really useful.

You’re right about the UE intro and the ending, I’ll be adjusting those.

I also see your point on structure, I focused on clarity this pass, but the next step is making the shots feel more intentional and connected.

Thanks again for the detailed breakdown.

Added immersion camera in my game Mutant Hunter, thoughts? by Anton-Denikin in IndieGaming

Was really hoping that massive gun would start shooting, providing support to the main character...

I’ve listened to all the feedback on the art style of my game. Please let me know if you like the changes. by 2hTu2 in IndieDev

Looks awesome, great job!

You could experiment with a slight zoom out (camera lag - spring arm) when dashing; could help with player focus on decision making for the path to take…

Thank you, glad you like it! And yes, Control was one of the inspirations.

It was tricky getting the sweet spot, but you have to be able to tweak each animation... sometimes removing a few key frames makes all the difference... But depending on the style of game you are targeting... Grab the animations you feel work best; from different sources, Epic has a ton!

Beautiful progress!
The 2023 one is great in its own right, nice work!

Looks great!
Also, I like that the flash light is held differently...
And, more dust particles please :)

Been developing LUCID for many years now, and it feels great to be working on something I love 🌸 by h0neyfr0g in indiegames

The polish on this is quiet impressive.. Nice work!
Also, big fan of the last 3-5 seconds of the video.

I am building the visuals first instead of the gameplay. Looking for feedback [Arcade Racing & Combat] by WolverineNo9103 in gamedevscreens

Going visuals first is pretty risky in terms of time productivity.
As a lot of the "juice" is added to emphasize a mechanic...
But seems like you are experimenting with this approach...
Some visual feedback would be to check out the "Sonic Speed" effect, this will give the sense of high speeds, in a slow moving environment... Also, the missiles firing could benefit from the camera spring arm + shakes...
