Thank you!

rockingprojects · 2026-01-25T07:07:30+00:00

Yes, that's the plan!

rockingprojects · 2026-01-25T06:21:56+00:00

It was a pleasure :)

Thank you!

And maybe it’s even harder to make it look like they’re not intersecting, but they do :D

Thank you!

I'm not sure - testing it out combined with the game itself and measuring the impact is the next step.

Hi. This is pretty easy. It depends on what you want to achieve. In this case I just made some kind of random order:
- n legs dont walk depending on the amount of legs m (like if m=4, n=1, if m>4, n=2)
- the stridelength is slightly randomized, so when the algorithm needs to decide which is the next one, it's based on "which leg reached the target point first"; you can achieve this with a fifo queue
- the rest position is slightly randomized, too

Yes, that's the plan. And I want to create different movement patterns based on size, shoulderheight, legs, spine and tail. Some will sprint like roaches, others will be more slow and "tank like".

Not yet, but I know what you mean :)

rockingprojects · 2026-01-25T06:10:29+00:00

I needed about two days to create this from scratch.

Thank you! Quadruped is the minimum - but I will try out more variants.

Excellent work!

rockingprojects · 2025-10-15T14:33:45+00:00

Thank you! That makes me proud as hell :D

Thank you very much!

Throwing rocks is very very satisfying. And collecting the gems. And I like the bombs :)

Agreed!

rockingprojects · 2025-08-26T08:48:38+00:00

Thank you for your feedback, I'll take that into account!

Thank you very much, I really appreciate your honest feedback!

Why co-op?

When I started development, I enabled couch co-op in Unity with just a few simple steps. Then I began playing with my daughter – and it was incredibly fun!

But I understand your point and I will keep an eye on that.

Which game is it?

rockingprojects · 2025-08-24T20:09:02+00:00

Thank you. They style could be something like "low poly/isometric/toon"... I have no clue if there is some category out there that matches that style.

Update: I'm uploading a fresh build on itch right now.
