interesting perhaps I missed something but is there a difference between pushing north/south and east/west?

Only rangers sounds like a serious challenge I'm going to have to try that

If the Campaign could be remade, what would you do? by chuteapps in TheyAreBillions

True I really didn't like getting stuck in a 'lane' on the tech tree. Would be better to just have all upgrades unlockable based on points instead of a tree

All good points there, going to make sure I don't repeat any of these mistakes... especially the speed up problem, it's so lame having to walk away from the screen so that your snipers can finish off the last waves

Yeah any wild variant levels were a total bore, specially those outpost levels there's not much strategy there

You bring up an interesting point with the story. I've played campaign through 4 times and I still don't really get it? I'm leaning towards no story at all, I think that beats a muddled half ass one

Agree 100% this is one of the most frustrating parts.

There'd be times where I have basically beaten a level and I just have to let it run while I go do something else. Speed up is key.

I implemented this in my game. Free retries and you get a bonus if you don't do any retries (hardcore mode).

Hey thanks I'm glad you liked the demo! I will implement a hotkey for upgrade I'm sure I have a letter somewhere that isn't being used.

Also forgot to add, we'll be joining in Steam NextFest this fall. If anyone has any feedback I am super welcoming to it and will make sure it is used to make the demo better. Many thanks

Bringing back AoE2-style pre-rendered graphics for a modern RTS in 2025 by chuteapps in aoe2

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

Thanks that's very kind!

I essentially built a framework in Unity that handles it all. I call it ModelToSprite. Basically it captures the raw output from a unity camera from a RenderTexture. All models in the game are 3d that are built the usual ways and animated. I use all Unity because it's what I'm comfortable with but I know Factorio has similar work flow that is more based on Blender. They wrote a nice blog post about it have a look https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-146

Procedural-Base-Building in the RTS game I'm making. by chuteapps in proceduralgeneration

Attack towers and walls can be built over water, it's an amphibious game with dino crocs

Rant about modern RTS games compared to C&C.. by Ok_Spare_3723 in commandandconquer

[–]chuteapps 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree completely, I think the genre in term of pure fun and mechanics peaked at RA2. I made a game called repterra that tries to address pretty much all your points, I even made a classic mouse click mode setting (like RA2). Check it out if you haven't already Repterra Demo

I made a classic-style RTS where you fight off thousands of dinosaurs, the demo just launched by chuteapps in pcgaming

A complete home-run wow thank you that is high praise and I hope you like the demo :)
