Bullet Storm!
completely insane, very hard but thats how these games should be (despite the fact you are granted infinite lifes)

-how do you do the collision handling? do the bullets have colliders?
-i felt that the hitbox of the ship is a bit to big (or at least it seems big), causing situations of inevitable death

 

Hi Maart, I'm guessing you are referring to my prototype? I think I've tweaked the difficulty so it's do-able for the the level, the boss is another story I think my personal best is using 5 lives to beat the level.

For the enemy bullets, they are setup as rigidbody triggers. The player's bullets and missiles are regular rigidbodies; mainly as I wanted to have a hit ray to spawn the hit particles at a correct orientation.

The hitbox is actually smaller than the hit box of the enemy bullets It needs to be, else it will be near impossible during the boss fight. The question is, where is the hitbox?

Answer: [ The hitbox is located at the very top tip of the canopy. ]

Thanks for checking it out

 

EDIT. Sorry not that thread

 

ahh, knowing that its way more comfortable to dodge bullets

 

This is a little puzzle game and my first project i am working on in Unity.
The goal is to move the little spirit (white sparkling thing) from start to finish (orange portal). Every few seconds the rings rotate in different directions. The ugly terrain and little puppy are just placeholders, i still have no final design in mind
(heck, i am just a coder, you know )

 

Just some shots of just some of the content we've shown

 

Im working on traffic simulation with traffic light and advanced AI. For now it is going good.


Brown - Truck
Green - Normal Car
Blue - Fast Car

Current Version:
AI check for cars in front, if he is to close he will slow down to follow leader car. If leader car stops every car behind him will come to safe distance and stop, if leader car start going again, rest cars will do same with speed and acellraction calculations so they dont crash.

Now I am working on traffic passing, so faster cars can pass slower one's if there is space for that...Soon webplayer.

 

Cool, I love simulations. Small details on the behavior of each agent could influence the final traffic behavior, like delayed movement for example. If every driver takes a fraction of a second to start moving behind the car in front it can take seconds or even minutes for the last car to move! that's why I get mad when someone starts sounding their horns to make the cars move, thinking someone clearly fell asleep or something like that

 

Blogging my progress on a little game play experiment based on pacman. Just for fun really, and document a little my own thought process as I play with game play ideas



Currently at update 7 but experiment starts here

 

Looking great!

 

I made an editor for myself to easily set tiling and offsets of materials for atlases. I always changed the position of my textures, so I wanted to make this so I didn't have to calculate all the offsets for my materials. It is free for any one to use if they need it.

It's building system, going to add stuff like wheels, rotating joints, guns, joint break force and torque based on surface area in contact, multiple joints per object, and a secondary way of placing things for gain stuff snap into place.
Only have to core working so far it, took a lot longer than expected.
The camera controls are pretty bad and every thing is way too big so it seems like it falls slow.

 

Looks cool ! @ jessee03

 

Ye i was thinking on similiar stuff, i will do soon a more randomness. I finally solved traffic network and traffic lights, it is alive now

And some screens how it works

 

Hi guy's currently Working on a zombie survival type of game in unity3d. The aim is to survive unlimited round's of zombie's and each time you survive a round the zombie's get harder, It's basicly going to be like Call of Duty Black ops zombies.

Story Line
None.

Pictures and Videos
Before some items added in house:

Some detail added to the building / house.





To Add
1) More detail outside the house to make it more zombie ish.
2) Trees out side of the map.
3) More detail inside the house to make it look zombie ish.
4) Weapons and scripts.

Why am I making this?
I am making this game to see if me and my mate can fully complete it, If we do manage to stick to making it then after the release of this survival we are going to attempt to make a massive online Zombie survival mmorpg like War-z and Day-z.

 

Not to take the wind out of your sails, but making an mmorpg is kinda hard and needs much knowledge. As long as you haven't this, i wouldn't recommended to touch this type of area... Cool idea thought.

 

Nearly finished my first editor extension. It's a quest/mission editor for my game, still needs some adjusting though.
After entering the info ( quest title, descriptions and dialogue for each "stage" or "act" of the mission, mission objectives etc. ) you assign a quest id.
After pressing "Save To" and having selected the target file (or created a new file) the quest/node will be added to the (xml) document, or in case the assigned quest id already exists, it will replace it.
"Remove From" works pretty much the same but ofcourse removes the node instead of adding it.

 

Hey guys,

I wanted to share a video trailer of a game that I am working on. I am in a indie team of two and sparing every second on this game. This is our first game

We decided to call this game Spectrum, This project is still very much in the early stages. Please take a look at our Alpha stage demo level over here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2r-Y1i7y3z8&feature=youtu.be

A bit of the background story can be read at http://www.spectrumgame.com

Thanks!

p.s. feel free to share your thoughts/feelings on the trailer/game. I am in the middle of recording the game play footage from start to finish for this level. I will upload it once it is complete.

 

@dawgtothebone
maybe its completely clear as you upload the next vid, or i have a bad perception - but i have a question:
-when jumping, why is there a line and why is the ascending part of the jump a straight line and the descending part a physical correct parabola?
-there must be some special purpose for it which should be made clear, otherwise the jump feels irritating, even super mario bros. 1 had something like a parabolic jump afaik

 

Thanks to handpaintedtextures help we have our Berry Brew shop taken from Dull to Exciting!

Just testing few ideas with perlin dungeon maker.

Webplayer:
http://unitycoder.com/upload/demos/RealmOfSomething/

- 128x128 dungeon
- few 2D test mobs
- particle "fog" on ground
..

(still looking for some site, that would have free good dungeon textures..)

 

@mgear
Are the mobs supposed to respawn after a little while?
I cleared a rather small area, explored the dungeon, but couldn't find any new enemies or potions...
Good work btw

 

Very nice! Love it so far! Needs a lot of work but great start!

 

Thanks!
Added couple test spawners yesterday,
and some mobs do small damage now..
But yes, lots of stuff to do/fix.. : )

 

I would just like to show a little real time shadow system I made(well it can be real time, not real time sometimes real time what eva!)... just for fun tonight it has lots of issues that prevent it from being usable in game but I just wanted to have a go at it :

 

Level / Maze Generator

I'm working on a simple maze generator based on this Depth First search algorithm

I came up with some rather interesting results, as shown below. This is because walls are not removed, but the actual level blocks themselves, so at the moment it's more of a cool experiment generator thing, but in practice it could be converted into a maze generator.



-

Due to the nature of the system, it will eventually eat up the entire level, because all the blocks are considered uninvited, as shown below

-



Still pretty happy about it, went through about two straight days of cursing!

 

Do you "accidentally" delete the old threads on a regular basis?!? This is like the 3rd time this thread is renewed

Was working on Castle Wars but decided to put a pause on that game so I can take more time to develop something simple that I can (hopefully) finish.

-Minibase Wars-


- Webplayer -
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17783172/Minibase Wars Alpha/Minibase Wars.html

- Description
Started a new project that should be much simpler to make and complete. It will be similar to Castle Wars in that each player has a base and you have to take out the other players, but you won't rely on several units to defend and attack with. You have a single unit, other players and friendly AI to help defend the base along with turrets.

- Turrets and other buildings
Certain objects will be movable by the player and should be put in a good spot where you can defend.

- Powering buildings
Everyone starts off with 0 energy. There will be a core in the center of the map for which to get energy from. You will then bring it back and put it into storage containers. For now, turrets will use up energy from the storage containers regardless of how far away it is until I decide if I want to limit the distance or not.

- Vehicles
There is a single vehicle that the player will spawn as. This vehicle will be used to transport buildings such as turrets and storage containers. It will also be used to gather energy from the core and bring it back to the storage containers.

- Current progress -
-Basic level tiles are done
-Player movement control is done
-Vehicle AI movement is done
-Weapons need to be added
-Controls for attacking still need to be added

The energy system hasn't been implemented yet.

I hope you will find it nice !

 

Wow... looks great. I love the game mechanics and the graphic style.

 

Learning some pixelly stuff,..working out some code for a Zamboni type mini-game.

Fun with GetPixels

plugin for mixing animations with physics

 

Why are you so mean to him?

What happens if you throw a cube to his feet?

 

Looks better than Euphoria (fixed it), which was used in GTA 4

 

haha he deserved it.
nothing proper happens if you shoot it to his feet yet, it will simply bounce off with very minor affect to the character,
and thats what i will work on after implementing "falling down" and "getting up" states.

NaturalMotion technology (which used in GTA 4) is different, its designed to create fully realistic animation with character behaviors (which aren't good for mixing your existing animations with physics, but its good for super high level of realism).
I simply add physics to existing animation instead of doing everything the fair way, so its not fully realistic, but kinda looks like it.
programming is all about LIES

 

*Euphoria

 

Edit: whoops, wrong thread, I meant to post this in the small art WIP thread.

 

Oh thanks, didn't realize.

 

Webplayer

Showing off some new smoke trails. I've also updated the AI a bit so it's more aggressive.

 

I've been working on a biathlon game for PC, focusing on the shooting first. I've made a webplayer for it if anyone wanna try.

That's really neat. Are you looping through all the planets constantly and comparing their name against the string that has been typed out? I wonder how that would work out if that was done for a cheat code system. Timestamps would probably need to be added to each letter.

 

Cool, but sometimes I got confused with the font and then a simple mistake made me type it in again, I would suggest having the letters change color when typed.

 

Ooh yea, I got a little confused when looking at the O's. Couldn't tell if they were an O or a D half the time.

 

I've been playing with fully functional physics on a 'per-world' basis, initial tests are proving to run smoothly and not providing too much of a hassle; though there are some hick-ups that persist needing to be smoothed out. But here is what I have come up with so far, the camera controller is still a work in progress, needing to smooth out the rotation between planet transitions. Any feed back on this initial prototype would be appreciated!
