Wow your game is gorgeous no wonder it did so well

Hooray!

For all y’all new players on Switch:
We’ve been doing A Year of UFO 50 since the initial launch, a weekly book club podcast, one game/episode per week.

We’re almost at the end, but you should start at the start!

Here’s our intro episode for the series:

eggplant.show/ep-a-year-of...

Tried and reviewed your game now, I loved it! I feel like at level three it escalates a bit too much, where you are introducing both moving runes and buttons/doors. I think I got stuck on level 6, which had a pretty tough jump puzzle with the jump pads.

In my game rhoeberg.itch.io/beat-invaders its not possible to survive longer than 150s which for most people felt brutal. I would make sure the difficulty is scaled way down so you can get a better feel of the game before its suddenly over.

I thought my game was simple enough for people to understand, its easy to assume when you make something yourself. Next time I want to make sure player understand whats on the screen and which inputs to use without having to read a text outside the game.

It has been so much fun to have people trying my game for the #gmtk jam and I'm very happy with the feedback lots of people seem to like the idea. Two things I have learned that I will make sure to improve next time:
1. ingame tutorial
2. balanced towards a 5-10min experience (depending on genre)

Very cool to see unity getting its run for the money against godot. Surprised there's not more people using game maker.

Oh no not Maschinen-Mensch :(

Seen on fiverr.com. Turns out AI creates more jobs now that programmers have to fix everyones vibe coded projects 😂

Uploaded the final version of my #gmtk submission. Its a rythm game/tower defence mashup inspired by music sequencers: rhoeberg.itch.io/beat-invaders
Looking forward to trying out some other peoples games as well ✌️

humble beginnings of my gmtk entry. A step sequencer tower defence mashup. Probably wont have time to finish it 🤷

I kind of want to participate in the GMTK gamejam, but I doubt I will have much time for it. How does anyone get anything done with kids and job on the side 😪

Currently not the rectangle just constrains the camera so it can't go out of it. If I set the rectangle to a single screen size it would just be a single screen "locked" camera. Was considering to be able to set the camera look ahead direction

If I had a thousand rectangles I would consider it, but i doubt there would be more than 20 rectangles in a single level. I generally prefer a cache less method when I can afford it, less bugs :)

Yeah I love it also, gives a bit of a cinematic feel. The current implementation is quite simple, I have an array of rectangles and check every frame which rectangle the player is in. Then i constraint the camera to that rectangle and handle camera movement accordingly.

Playing around with configurable camera constraints in my engine. Basically the same approach as Celeste where a level can be compartmentalized into multiple camera constraints. Its pretty neat already!

10000bc called and want it's snacks back

Was not sure about sounds in UI's until I heard the sheep eraser, I want to add sounds to my editor now

While I absolutely think AI art is soulless slop I do agree with you. Its the same when people get told they where manipulated into voting for the wrong person, people are not going to react the way you think they are when told something like this.

Ah yes the famous period in time when everyone was an aristocrat 🤨

Ooh wookash is a pretty good interviewer, I'm sure this will be interesting for us nerds 🤓

A quick sketch using my level editor

Went to see some art at the Louisiana museum in Denmark yesterday 👀

The great thing about writing your own level editor is that you can have it integrated in your game engine, so I can jump between playing the levels and editing with one button.

rooms odd sized, grid snapped. U overshoot is either 2 or 4.
zero other constraints.

This one feels nice and impactful
