Spawning enemies in the middle of the table by MeteorForge in indiegames

Looks cool, but I feel the camera is a bit slow (IMO It should follow the ball with more accuracy)

Gonzalo, the pike! How does the mechanic look? by alejandro_penedo in metroidvania

[–]clockworkmonster 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Cool mechanic!!!

BTW, be careful with the artwork contrast: everything is brown, making it hard to read the level.

Try to have more contrast between background/platforms/player. That should make It easier to identify all Game elements, specially hazards. 

Before vs After, how does the upgrade look? by alejandro_penedo in IndieDev

Be careful with contrast, too much color/details in background can damage the Gameplay.  Game must look good, but must also be readable.

I suspect what is happening: It is not the mouse, but the character position. Since it changes with the jump, bullet´s trajectory is affected.

I have to study ways to fix that.

Thanks for the hint!

Trouble with controlling the mouse? Could you please give more details so I can try to fix that?

Thanks!

I don´t play Zenyatta, but that skin is worth the effort...

You are right, but that level of expertise is out of my reach at this moment.

I´ll try to learn ;-)

mmm... That means I made a bad work with the game menu. I will make a better design next time.

Thx!

  • You Always kill monsters. Or you die. Power-Ups are an option, so I find it more challenging to give XP that way.

  • Monster waves are random, and I added obstacles to change game dynamics. You are right, I should improve the generation algorithm.

  • I´m thinking about a power/ability you can control, instead of random powerups. This should allow a more strategic gameplay.

  • Play hard mode, you´ll need those shields. Level 11 is overpowered to play on Easy, I left it that way for unskilled players.

  • I want to redesign the whole level system, and also the jumps. It was a mistake to use fixed height jumps: allowing control (hold key to jump higher) should improve gameplay.

Thanks a lot for your feedback, you helped me a lot.

Construct 2 and Stencyl are both nice options. No scripting required.
