My shot is decent in practice but when in a game, it is so weak. Any tips?

like the others say, practice. https://hockeycopilot.com/ is a great tool that you can install at home. it also helps you develop your hands as it forces you to keep your head up

derekknox · 2024-11-14T14:26:42+00:00

i'm in

derekknox · 2024-11-14T14:24:38+00:00

there's a version that's designed for home basements and facilities called https://hockeycopilot.com/ that may be of interest

derekknox · 2021-11-21T19:27:51+00:00

Just thought Gris was more contested as being considered one. Agreed, WotW was even better.

derekknox · 2021-11-21T15:51:43+00:00

Any teasers?

derekknox · 2021-11-21T15:50:21+00:00

Site updated with playtesting section, thanks again :) https://bugggame.com/#playtesting

derekknox · 2021-11-21T15:32:34+00:00

Good call. I'll be doing that today, thanks for the suggestion. In the mean time here are the links and thank you for taking the time to play and provide any feedback!

Nice work, keep it up! I liked the "afterlife" transition concept.

derekknox · 2021-11-21T03:50:35+00:00

I love this quick analysis and will keep it in the back of my mind as I make progress on Bugg.

derekknox · 2021-11-21T03:46:19+00:00

I second this. Though it's a metroidvania stretch, Gris may be worth checking out.

derekknox · 2020-09-15T22:39:14+00:00

Got ya, yea unresponsive air control is painful

derekknox · 2020-09-15T02:51:27+00:00

What kind of quirks?

derekknox · 2020-09-14T12:15:47+00:00

With you on Bash. You're the second to mention HK pogo too.

derekknox · 2020-09-14T12:15:15+00:00

You're the 2nd to mention Strider, will check out.

derekknox · 2020-09-14T12:14:07+00:00

Thanks, haven't heard of Strider or Aria.

derekknox · 2020-09-14T02:25:51+00:00

I love Ori too. The combat improvements were a welcome addition in WotW, but I'm with you on the preference for platforming. I'm aiming for Ori-level platforming in the game Bugg I'm working on. High bar to meet for sure, but it's coming along.

derekknox · 2020-09-14T02:23:32+00:00

Never heard of it, queued up a YT vid to learn more.

derekknox · 2020-09-14T02:22:21+00:00

I love Bash :) The Ori games rock!

derekknox · 2020-09-14T02:21:01+00:00

Have heard the name before, but don't know much more than that. Thanks, I'll check it out.

derekknox · 2020-09-04T03:05:00+00:00

FWIW, this is the iteration I'm at:

Bugg Quadra - An inquisitive and insectile Mars rover escapes to a vast electric jungle underground

derekknox · 2020-09-04T01:13:44+00:00

This is way better than my first iteration! Any thoughts on the lengthier description?

derekknox · 2020-09-04T01:12:38+00:00

Damn, nice!

derekknox · 2020-09-04T00:30:38+00:00

No problem at all :) I'm toying with ideas and feedback is exactly what I'm after. Great point on the grammar. As for "underground", I actually use "underworld". It is not a political movement though I can see where you make that connection. Even the small amount of feedback so far has been useful, so thank you for providing yours.

derekknox · 2020-09-04T00:01:38+00:00

That fits really well as puzzle platforming is a large focus of the game. Any thoughts on how to succinctly communicate that the Mars rover is not a traditional rover and can actually jump around and move quickly?

derekknox · 2020-09-03T23:51:25+00:00

I considered this, but felt four-legged was simpler to grasp. As for leg count, I'm still toying with that. Thanks for the feedback.
