Games WIP Small Works Game / Programming Thread

Thanks for the feedback! The lambo is extremely fast with its 700 hp and since my simulation doesn't simulate any aids except abs yet it's a pretty chaotic car to drive The engine sounds for the lambo are just placeholder for now so hopefully that will be solved in the near future. Did you try the f40? the engine sounds on that car are way better and it's also easier to drive.
I will look into making the throttle input mapping better

 

New build of my racing simulator. Reworked the clutch simulation somewhat and tweaked some parameters. You can try it here : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f754dvqOj4QqAzrbr9S5i4akSTj-NdVs/view?usp=sharing

 

Experimenting with procedural hand poses for my interaction tool. Right now it feels a bit off and needs optimizations (0.5ms) and fingers are like snakes.

Workflow is like this. Transparent box is the are that holds desired object to cache. Then it creates points with given density like point cloud and creates the same shape. Discards inner points to get only edges. Then it only accounts x amount of closest points with given transform. So you get only interactable part of object with lower point count. For example for a door object, you can only get door handle where you need your procedural interaction. So these points are actually works like collider for bones.

 

An online remake of SEGA 1982 Arcade Hit Super Zaxxon (work in progress: everything is done except it has only one level for the moment). Depending on when Unity devs will decide to leave the cofee machine and make webGL player prefs work again in webGL, you will also have your prefs saved (it is already the case on all other platforms but webGL).

It uses custom player loops (UnityEngine.LowLevel.PlayerLoopSystem) for non mono-behaviour objects like audio mixers controllers, camera shake controller, shared particles animations etc. so there is very little GameObject or Component parasiting and polutions. Non-monobehaviour can unschedule themselves from the update loops once finished so you really only have what you need to have at any given time in the update loops.

If you want to record your score you will have to connect to your facebook account (top-left corner button in the start screen) if you dont use ad blocks or that kind of things, facebook having problems with them. Facebook having problems to agree with itself in full screen, if you wish to login you will also have to not be in full screen.

Fighting Attack Helicopter in my VR

 

You probably could solve the issues with few raycast. No need for points. Would work with any mesh collier.

 

Hello Unity users,

during the development of my latest game I made some recordings to capture the progress. I put that together into a little video. Maybe you find it interesting (EDIT: Maybe I should mention, it is a puzzle / logic game)

 

So I actually started a separate thread before I noticed this one; it may be better here though, since it is a small work. Long story short, I programmed an open-source demo of a simple AI enemy using a state machine and waypoints, playable here:
https://jhocking.itch.io/state-machine-ai

 

I made a silly April Fools video for my dev log Youtube channel. In actuality. My game is a cartoony, point-and-click adventure game that has nothing to do with Dark Souls whatsoever .

 

Made this simple Dismemberment system for Unity

I made some fixes after last feedbacks.
Still learning.

Working on a dynamic walkie-talkie effect for my game. Found this solution, wanted to share the knowledge.

 

Some ingame footage from our team Sanctuary RTS project.

Stranger VR Game Teaser 1. Except for the logo, the whole video was created from within unity.

And here's the separate thread.

 

I'll be expanding this in the future with additional worlds, characters, mowers and gameplay modes. The biped in the video is a modified "Elven Assassin" (free asset) wired with IKs (free asset). The current live build was created in Unity Engine 2022.2.0b1.

I love how the music reacts to what's going on in the scene. Well there be a riding-mower upgrade?

 

Yes - and riding mowers will cut wider paths ..I briefly considered adding mushrooms you drive over, that would make you bigger, with some wobbly, colorful post effects to go along with that - it could still happen eventually

 

Hey, hope you are doing great.
I made this little shield shader that highlights at the place of projectile impact. I am not good with shader graph so this was something I created to improve and learn some things (And I really learned a lot). I hope you like it.

 

Hi everyone, I recently post a thread about a Podracer game simulator I am working on. Here is a short gameplay video :

If you are interested, this is the link of the thread to give me your feedbacks, questions and advises :

https://forum.unity.com/threads/podracer-simulation-game.1314219/

 

I'm not a big Star Wars fan, but this is looking pretty awesome. The physics of the engines looks really good. I was hoping the thing would explode/break if it hit a wall, and I wasn't disappointed. Maybe there wasn't an explosion (yet), but I love that they break off.

If this thing grows enough, Disney could notice and shut it down. That would be a real shame. You might want to consider using your own name for these things, and nix the explicit "Star Wars" reference, just to be safe.

 

Thank you very much for this comment, I worked a lot on the physics to bring some life to this pod and because I hopped it would bring more satisfaction in play.

For VFX,I already did the smoke to alert player when an engine is damaged or has hit something and cause it to break. The only problem I have is the particule count spawn. The pod go to 700 km/h and if I want the smoke to be visible on race I have to spawn a lot of particules, A LOT !!! I know there is a distance spawn rate which looks better but has the same probleme from 300 km/h. I am still looking for a solution but I would like to finish the UI design before.

Concerning the potential shut down from Disney, I saw on youtube someone who did a remake of an old pod racer game which is free to play on Unreal Engine. I guess, it is the best way to distribute a Star Wars game with the lore and everything else without being stopped by Disney. Knowing the contract between EA and Disney for Star wars is coming over and after what EA has done with this licence, may be they will be more relax with fan games ... no ?

 

I never considered the issue of generating particles at high speeds. Interesting.

I don't know about the pod racer remake you're referring to, but I don't think Disney has ever been "relaxed" with their IP. They've gone after daycare centres for having murals of their characters on the walls. You can do what you like, of course, but it just seems like a big risk to put so much work into a cool game that could be shut down because it's using somebody else's copyright.

 

I see that as a way to improve my skills in modeling, texturing and coding. Thanks to this project, I started to do realistics 4k textures whereas before I only wanted to make stylized game. I learned a lot about vectors and physics in unity. But I won't lie, I am also scared to be stopped by Disney and won't be able to monetized this game. I hopped, if this game makes some noise and many people want to play this game, Disney may propose something but I think is a lost hope. However, if it brings me some support from people as you did and a little community, for me, it is win.

 

I'm afraid it's unlikely that Disney would respond to any fan project with a business proposal. That's not a knock against your game in any way. As I said-- I think it looks quite promising. I just don't think that's how they do business. I'd like to be wrong though. You definitely shouldn't try to monetize the project if you're using their IP without their permission.

Aside from all that, if it's working for you as a learning experience, then more power to you. Making games isn't always about making money. I only do it as a hobby-- I make games that I want to play. Judging by your passion for the project, I think you're in a similar position.

 

That why I thought. My goal was not to monetize this game because of Disney but just propose to other people my version of pod racer. And of course, I would never sell this game without their permission.

Just knowing two person interested in my game is very cool and I guess your not the only two. So I will continue this journey, publishing some project advancements on the youtube channel.

Thank you for your answers !!!

 

Hey, I am currently prototyping something. Started over with this 3 times already, recently posted about the shield shader I made. This time I added new movement type for bigger ships. The "game" idea is currently some kind of twin stick shooter thing. Movement is rigidbody based both for movement and for rotation because I wanted accurate physic collisions. This took me a while to get my head around it. Especially for the rotations....I hate quaternions like Anakin hates sand...

Videos contains comparison between big and small ship movement.

 

For my visual style, the look and vibe of a lot of PS1 games inspire me, specifically PS1 RPGs; Legend of Dragoon, Xenogears, and Vagrant Story are some standouts in terms of atmosphere, cinematography, color and composition. I'm aiming to make environments and styles to fit the vibe of a PSX-"ish" game, not quite constrained to the limitations of the hardware, but very clearly stylistically inspired.

I'm learning this style as I go, so I'm still very much practicing!

 

Worked on this Laser over the weekend, I hope you like it . Used Shader Graph, Particle System, Line renderer and code of course.
Maybe I will soon start a thread about this game.

Playing around with a concept for a survival game on Titan

 

Looks nice! Keep one small thing in mind. There's no way someone on Titan could see Saturn in the real world. Maybe add a quick explanation early on for the atmosphere being thinned - maybe by some impact that caused part of the atmosphere to strip away. Or maybe that would only even be noticed by nerds like me.

 

Ha yeah not sure how realistic it's going to be at this point, but since weather would be a big feature the atmosphere will probably end up a lot thicker.

 

Here's some videos of our new track
