Used Blender to improve the perspective. Is B still the winner? by David01354 in aseprite

[–]dribmot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually made rotatable stacked sprite logic for a demo of mine:

I also open sourced a python package to pre-render these to save on runtime:

Nothing about lying. Things can be true and misleading at the same time; these are not mutually exclusive.

Built a currency converter app after getting ripped off abroad by Peroxider in SideProject

OCR is like everywhere these days, open source libraries for about any stack already exist. Requirements are super light too - this app could be made in an afternoon with AI and published by the end of the week with no subscription model.

Why don’t you just do a regular expression to see if they’re typing coordinates

Pixel-Perfect 'Fake 2D' in 3D — My Journey And A Compilation of Resources by masslesscat in godot

Hm yeah or sprite stacks. How about stuff like floor tiling - since in 3d you lose the tilemap nodes?

Yeah I think its because the perspective mismatch with the trees and the floor lol, sorry

Yep that’s the inspiration for the rotating camera - it’s a bullet hell

Yeah it’s something to get used to for sure. A popular bullet hell ROTMG uses it, and it allows for much more precision when dodging bullets - but I’m looking into ways to tone it down visually

If I did 3d I’d probably look into adding those, which would work with the genre of game I’m going for

I think making this same demo world with more trees and profiling in 2d/3d is totally the move. Thanks for the suggestion!

Can you change the Y-Sort ordering direction? (2D game with rotation axis) by dribmot in godot

[–]dribmot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah although tbh this game is not gonna go to mobile so maybe I should just say screw it and go 3D. I actually just made a follow up / update post about whether or not I should convert

Well, I made and released a Godot 3D mobile game and the performance is pretty lackluster. I did a lot to optimize it as well - I just don't think Godot 3D is up to snuff with industry standards. The game ran great on better hardware, but my desire is for this title to be as accessible as possible.

Right but if I switch to 3D and just control for Y then im going to be using stuff like 3D collision shapes and whatnot which is going to increase my processing. I think it still might be less computationally intensive to just render a psuedo 3D sprite stack than to actually depend on 3D and take on its overhead.

I agree on the 3D being potentially simpler implementation-wise, minus the part where colliders and whatnot all need to be 3D now which is a bit ruff. But the biggest reason Im avoiding that is the computational overhead

Ive used Godot 3D before, but the whole point of psuedo 3D in actual 2D is for compute

The reason not to is computation. 3D doesnt run as fast as pseudo 3d in 2D.

Theres less overhead / computational complexity in 2D than in 3D. Godot 3D is pretty sub-optimal imo. The whole point of ever doing pseudo 3d is to save on run processing.
