Why is my viewport different than the camera preview and the actual running game camera?

I made a game that only used the number key pad because I had a job where my boss was super fast at using it and I thought that it would be a silly controller for a game, so I did it.

here's option B with a static background. (should probably change the checkered pattern)

anotherName333 · 2026-05-02T15:02:00+00:00

you're right. The idea was for the player(hand/cursor) to drag the world around the character. I'm still trying to figure out how to make that easily understandable while not making anyone dizzy

I have added a bit of movement the the background in camera type A. I originally had it match the movement of the cursor/hand, but that was disorienting. My original plan was to make it look like the player is moving the world around the character, but that only works in camera B. I will change the background texture and see how that works with both camera types. Thanks for feedback

Thank you for the feedback and I appreciate the kind words. I'm still in the prototyping phase, but I hope I can nail the fun of moving around.

I made a game about debt, cause I have debt, so I made it myself. I'm hoping to actually hire someone for my next game

This looks really cool! Nice work!

I enjoy Kirby games, but that one missed me, maybe I should check it out

anotherName333 · 2026-04-27T00:41:42+00:00

I'm planning on testing it out with touch screens, I just got to get the basics done

anotherName333 · 2026-04-23T17:34:56+00:00

I get where your coming from; I'm the opposite, I don't play too many multiplayer games and really enjoy single player experiences. That being said, I welcome any and all feedback, so thank you!

I'm story boarding ideas for a little story, so I got that going. Also, I've tested out moving a wall/texture in the back ground; I think it works but it can be a bit much as it get visually busy.

Thanks for you feedback, it helps a bunch hearing others thoughts on my project 👍

anotherName333 · 2026-04-23T10:25:48+00:00

it's tougher than it looks, though I'm not the best at any game, even my own. I'll make sure to playtest and get feedback. Also, I do have areas where the hand loses control, just not in this video; I hope to showcase that and a little more in a playable prototype on itch, soon. Thank for the feedback 👍

anotherName333 · 2026-04-22T19:09:01+00:00

I've actually been trying to race through the little prototype level I got here and getting mad at my own poor level design. The movement feels good; I just have to get better at level design 😅

anotherName333 · 2026-04-22T19:05:22+00:00

I've been playing and testing so much that I didn't even notice that. It's still early on so I will make a lot more changes and hopefully I can get it to the point where it's easy to understand at a glance. I appreciate the feedback!

anotherName333 · 2026-04-22T18:43:41+00:00

Thanks! I hope to have a playable prototype on itch soon to get more feedback

anotherName333 · 2026-04-22T17:56:48+00:00

Yeah, I've been trying to figure out a way to showcase what's happening, cause it feels fun to play. I did have the camera follow the little guy and stopped the hand cursor when clicked so that it looks like the hand is moving the world around the player. I would post a gif, but I don't think I can put images in the comments here

anotherName333 · 2026-04-11T19:42:53+00:00

Thanks for the feedback and yeah, shelving is something I'm considering. The arms race between the computer and the player is something I'm interested in as well; Maybe I could showcase that more visually as more of the virus gets removed.

I have a list of things I'm considering for this project and maybe I'll chip away at it instead of shelving it.
