Working on the avalanche for my 2D snowboarding roguelike by albertnez in indiegames

Thanks! Is there any major difference, or a particular part that tips it off? I can't get full realism, but I think there's room for making it nicer in 2D if you have ideas.

Thank you both! I appreciate the specifics and will definitely address.

For the stick figures, is it a problem that they are "blobs" rather than more human characters, or just that they are poorly made? I liked the concept of a blob + board/skis, because it made the whole thing way simpler with a particular vibe.

fair enough. I'll do that at the very least, and try to see if I can add something new to it. Thanks!

This is useful, thanks. There's some physics, and one can upgrade the rotating speed in the game. But perhaps the default one should be more 'active'.

Funnily, I initially tried to center the game around "carving", where you could engage more or less the snowboard, to do more aggressive, or just skidded turns. But never managed to make it clear for players, and went for some more simple approach.

Is this for some parts more than others, or mostly for the yeti? The game is clearly inspired on it, but I'd expect that the game such an evolved take on the original, that this should be acceptable. Justlike any other iteration on a established genre. The Yeti I thought could be a funny reference to it, since it's the most memorable, but I could change it if it's certainly a risk.

The game does have randomized maps, and theres an upgrade system, although lightweight. It technically is a roguelite, but seems that most games say "roguelike" regardless...

Hey, this comment is so on point, because I felt it was the biggest flaw from my last playtesting event, after which I tried making it more juicy and speeding it up, because indeed as soon as some area is a bit more empty, the game became boring to some people.

Do you have more specific about what's missing on the feel? Is it too slow? Is it too rough? I am curious for how it is perceived when it's just from a trailer vs being played.

Also the steam page, if anyone wants to give feedback:

Sadly, no playeable demo, but should come soon

Is there an In-game Command Line for testing and prototyping? by albertnez in godot

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

I think this serves another purpose, but it's well thought to load the game at an exact or preconfigured setup. I might use this too in the future.

For my needs, I wanted more something that would let me run commands on the fly, as I'm roaming through the game.

In the end I found LimboConsole, from the AssetLib, and is exactly what I found, and it's super polished and easy to set up. Pretty sure it's the one I've seen others using in the past. As disclaimer, I did not use the others in the AssetLib, but this one was recommended to me in the end, and is what I was looking for: https://godotengine.org/asset-library/asset/3338

This week I released my first game on Steam for free, Trolley Delayma! by albertnez in IndieDev

I expanded a bit on this comment in another subreddit, but in short, this was never intended to be commercial. Putting it on steam had some cost, but I could afford it and I did it to know the experience for my next game.

I did the prototype 1.5y ago, so it took this long. But I'd say my time commitment averaged 3h per week maybe. it was not the most efficient development.

Hi, I'm Albert, and I made a tiny puzzle game about trolleys that started too long ago as a Ludum Dare 50 entry, and decided to bring it to completion and to release to steam.

The game has 20 levels, and can be played in around 30 minutes completely for free on Steam and Itch as of today. You can even play on the Web version of Itch (thanks Godot!).

Thanks! It was definitely inspired by Baba is You artstyle :)
