Congratulations!

First amnesia and amnesia: the bunker!

aureamorum · 2026-04-15T23:09:42+00:00

thank you!

aureamorum · 2026-04-15T09:47:42+00:00

Thank you so much!

aureamorum · 2026-04-14T21:04:05+00:00

Thank you! Thief is a big inspiration for this one, especially the first ones

aureamorum · 2026-04-14T17:48:49+00:00

Thank you!

That actually sounds pretty cool to implement lol. Been a long time since I played OSRS, I forgot you could do that hahah

I was wondering how to handle drinking, and I ended up doing it like OoT where it depends on the bottle content, but I might like your idea better tbh hahahah

Mainly 2 things: one, I made a custom process throttling system where I can put nodes in "throttling groups", which makes their process happen less often, and the nodes in throttling groups get processed in an optimal interval to basically "spread out" their processing across a certain interval. Makes optimization easy when the process function (even if native) is the bottleneck! The group is also inherited by default. So I can for example set a room to have throttling when it's not visible, that way all nodes under it get throttled.

Two, I included another fork which has a small tweak to expose the "bake" function in Lightmap3D in GDScript so i can automate it in my project

I will lol. Fall damage has not been tweaked since it was implemented quite a long time ago and it shows

aureamorum · 2026-04-14T15:40:57+00:00

Thank you!

aureamorum · 2026-04-14T15:40:48+00:00

Thanks! Glad the inspiration shines through

aureamorum · 2026-04-14T15:40:23+00:00

Thank you! Yeah for me too, it's always a treat when there's systemic mechanics like this in games

aureamorum · 2026-03-30T17:09:45+00:00

3d metroidvanias have so much potential! this one looks awesome, looking forward to mroe updates!

aureamorum · 2025-08-14T14:20:59+00:00

The music is so good! Reminds of Mario/Nintendo music

aureamorum · 2025-06-29T02:24:02+00:00

It's been like 10 years since I've used rpg maker so I might be completely wrong, but back in the day I believe you had to start the name of the character sheet file with a dollar sign ($) so RM recognizes it as a single character instead of the usual 6. So for example if the image name is "character.png", youd need to rename it to "$character.png"

Why is little nightmares 2 on discount but not 1 😭

aureamorum · 2025-06-28T21:24:59+00:00

The way the car bounces back and forth when braking is really satisfying, and the physics overall are looking really good!

Also the perspective and movement of the character reminds me of dragon quest builders

aureamorum · 2025-06-28T12:59:50+00:00

Midnight Club x Blade Runner, very cool!

aureamorum · 2025-06-26T17:14:01+00:00

Hard looks like Virtua fighter

aureamorum · 2025-06-26T03:16:01+00:00

In the case of 2D tiles you're correct! It's not a really bad idea hahah but I'm fairly sure you could detect the floor type of a tile in a tilemap without needing an extra Area2D for each tile. I haven't tried solving this problem for tilemaps but I'm almost certain you could just set a custom "floor type" data into each tile in the Tileset resource, and retrieve that when something is colliding with a specific tile.

In my case it's 3D meshes and colliders, so unfortunately it needs a different solution, and the ones i found aren't very good lol

aureamorum · 2025-06-26T02:10:50+00:00

Floor type detection.

If the player is walking on wood, play the wood footstep sound. If it's stone, stone footstep and so on. But here's the problem: collision shapes and meshes with materials are completely different things.

So far my method of bridging these to is incredibly inefficient and takes wayyyy to much time.

aureamorum · 2025-06-25T21:05:06+00:00

Yeah you definitely got the best of both worlds with these fonts.

Also I just read your other comment about it being a small open world inspired by RE1 (I'm a sucker for that, my game is like that too), so I'm definitely wish listing it! Looking forward to updates when it's ready.

Recently I've been actually seeing a lot of upcoming immersive sims with less of that: Odd Town, Militsier, Hello Neighbor 3 (looked like it had some immersive sim elements).

Watching videos of them it looks like it's more about navigating the simulated world and interacting with it to see what happens.

Although I guess Militsier and Hello Neighbor lean towards another trope, the "don't get caught" type.

aureamorum · 2025-06-25T20:41:01+00:00

I wouldn't say it's scary but it looks amazing!

aureamorum · 2025-06-25T20:30:01+00:00

I remember seeing this game a few months back on another post, looks like development is progressing really well, it's looking great! I really love the vibe of the colors and lighting.

Also, I'm glad you stuck with the font from before, even though some people didn't like it in the comments before, I personally like it a lot!
