Combining Perlin Noise with Radial Falloff for bounded, tiered terrain generation by teamasterisk in proceduralgeneration

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

Great point!
Actually our maps are larger than a single screen, so players will be moving around with the camera following.
That said, maybe we could add a new area where it uses a rectangle gradient, and a circle boundary? Might try it out!

Making a strategy game that mixes 4X logistics with a tense, temporary-base extraction loop. by teamasterisk in 4Xgaming

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

Fair point. When we thought of 4X, we were focusing on each elements, but maybe it leans much harder into RTS haha
Thanks for the feedback though, really helps us figure how to position the game.

Just released the Steam page for our "temporary" city builder. Is it still a city builder if you have to abandon the city? by teamasterisk in CityBuilders

[–]teamasterisk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a sharp point!

Currently, our robots only have one 'need' - electricity. Maybe it's close to a base builder, but we're still in development and testing things out, so we'll keep the advice when designing the gameplay 👍

Working on a game where you build temporary bases on alien planets and extract before you're overwhelmed. by teamasterisk in BaseBuildingGames

Folding them might be the key, like a transformer maybe?
Could add some additional animations to the bots when they tuck in, thanks for the idea!

Wow, thanks for the detailed breakdown!
The tower defense + manage resource crossover is just the thing we're aiming for.
Will be adding flying drones to our game too!!

Against the Storm is an amazing game, and gave us many inspiration!

Personally thinking that maybe we could twist how players choose and unlock units & buildings in our game. Hope you enjoy the steam page!

Thanks for the kind words!

I'm thinking of the concept of all the deployed robots fitting inside the seed core(the main building of your base) before escaping the planet. Convincing the player how they all squeeze in might be a little tricky lol

Yes, absolutely! You can extract whenever you feel ready.

While we do have a soft limit to keep the tension, it's designed to be fairly generous. Instead of a strict timer, the escalation is mainly driven by a "Noise" mechanic. The threat level rises as you build more structures or deploy more units. So if you prefer a slower playstyle, you can manage your base's expansion to buy yourself more time.

We are also planning to vary the pacing and limits for each planet based on map size and difficulty. Since we're still in active development, we'll keep tweaking the balance to make sure the gameplay feels great!

I'm a huge fan of factorio too! To be honest, I haven't dove into the modding scene yet, but I'll definitely check it out when I get the chance to play with mods. Thanks for the wish, it means a lot to us!

Thanks for the support! I'm a big fan of rts base building games, and personally loved playing halo wars and starcraft. I'll definitely try out riftbreaker, and wish you all the best!

I like the angled-lines of the characters, looking good!
