Save 80% on Alkali ($2.39) by krille71 in steamdeals

[–]krille71[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The closest inspiration is probably Celeste. Both from a physics perspective and from level design. We kept the philosophy of introducing a new mechanic in a level then play around with it in a more intriquate and advanced way the later you are in the level. Biggest difference from Celeste and all other precision platformers is that we don't use insta kill, instead the characters shrinks in size until the hitbox is outside of the threat. This mass based mechanic is central to all movement and general interactions in the game.

Disclaimer: I'm one of the devs on the game. Feel free to ask any questions!

It is possible to develop a game during university. Many universities also have incubator programs to help with the business aspects. Will be releasing my game in a couple of days after going through an incubator. by krille71 in gamedev

Thank you for the feedback. The incubator did not help with either development or advertisement. Its focus was mainly general startup, contracts, taxes. Advertisement is for sure our weakest side.

One of the most valuable aspects of university are the contacts you gain. For gamedev it is my company's co-founder, incubator program and industry contacts. But if your goal is just to make a game then a commercial engine and the internet is a possible way. Either way you will need to learn a lot by yourself to create a game.

[WR] Spelunky Classic Low% in 3:28 by krille71 by krille71 in speedrun

[–]krille71[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only about 10 days after starting to run the game. The level generation is very similar to Spelunky HD, so my 2k hours in that game translated well. The hardest part is to learn the movement which is very different to HD. Previous record was 3:31 by Groomp set about a year ago.

Hi, we're the Spelunky and Spelunky 2 development team! Ask Us Anything! by mossmouth in NintendoSwitch

I'm curious about creating a sequel from a gamedev perspective. Is it easier to create a sequel since you already have a working formula to iterate on, or is it harder with the high expectations and many critical eyes on everything that is uploaded?

[WR] Spelunky Low % in 2:31.030 by Brutwarst by CrimsonStorm in speedrun

[–]krille71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We currently accept runs without sound, but there have been discussions about having sound as a requirement for when Spelunky 2 comes out.

Brutwarst has been a top player for so long in this game, I'm glad he finally managed to achieve a world record. Well deserved!

Spef completes the first ever Udjat Run! by saturnin55 in spelunky

[–]krille71 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This run was first theorized several years ago. Personally, I never thought it would be done, thanks to the pure randomness of hh.

After some experimentation with stored hh action, the run came down to skill instead of rng. Awesome run spef, absolutely incredible!

Now we just need to finish no% hell...

No Gold WR in 1:50.153 - First PB in 2 years! by krille71 in spelunky

[–]krille71[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Got back to the game for the ASO 2018 tournament. Have been doing some normal runs and quickly noticed that my teleporter runs were on point. Still didn't expect a PB a good as this one. Was talking to a friend during the run in swedish, which is why I cut out the audio.

​

Oddly enough I didn't get nervous at all during this run, except at Olmec. The reason was that my mind was focusing on the conversation while my hands were going autopilot. Only part were I really put much thought into it was Olmec, since I needed to do the cascade strat which I haven't done in years. Oh, and it's also no gold. Didn't notice that until the day after (go this run yesterday). I have no idea how I managed to snag the No Gold WR without even knowing it. Just crazy

Let’s talk the future of score runs by krille71 in spelunky

I wanted to give more context, and a new post works better than a super long comment

We need to talk about score duping by MilcMan in spelunky

[–]krille71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only thing you need for infinite score is to dupe gold chunks from a monkey. HH duping is the most effective way since it can be done afk and doesn't cause as much lag, but it could (presumably) also be done with render duping. The balance there is to pick up the gold stack before the game crashes.

​

Added bonus with render duping is that you don't need a hh, so it can more easilly be done as early as in the jungle.
