RIGHT dying to anime music like an anime OP that is my OP into heaven sounds so cozy desu.

Is there any way to perform arbitrary async tasks in GML? I'm trying to rig up a map streaming system and it'd massively benefit if it's possible, but it seems like there's a small set of very specific async tasks you can perform defined by the API...

>>148527415
Why is the top text pixel shit and the rest uses some shit font?

>>148527331
The problem, I think, with a lot of these ethical dilemmas is that they always establish a bunch of arbitrary rules in order to confine the user to a binary choice - i.e. "You cannot kill yourself". This means that despite being given a choice, the user still feels a lack of agency, which generally isn't a good thing in video games. So you'd have to find a way to work around that.

I didn't mention this in the vid but I think the biggest weakness to your game right now is the fact that you're relying massively on enemies and deadly obstacles and not so much on actual puzzle elements. Bokube is a puzzle game and makes a poor action game so I'd much rather see clever stuff that works my brain than having to avoid death all the time. That I believe is what makes it rather tedious currently.

The good news is that this is only a matter of level design and it looks like your levels are relatively quick to put together.

>>148528190
There is more puzzle stuff, its just that the first world of the game is the easiest puzzle wise, so the other 9 worlds can ramp up as you go. The Easter world you play in the demo has 14 levels and boss, and you only played through the tutorial and the first 4 levels of the Easter world too, so you missed how the puzzles get deeper there.

Though I will look into it some more.

>>148527331
what if the real answer is to save them by not playing the game

>>148528645
I think the main issue with the logo is that it's the only pixel element in the game/layout.

>>148528875
I recommend a complexity ramp up so

level 1: plain movement
level 2: simple obstacles
level 3: simple puzzle

and then increase the difficulty from there, and if it's not too much effort at this point you should probably have your obstacles add timing pressure to your other tasks, rather than be just by themselves, at least to some degree

A couple of orphans VS a noble lord that abuses his wife.

Which do you rationalize and why?

Orphans are more than the noble, but his death would affect more people.

Orphans are relatively good, but chances are that (like most orphans) they'll grow up to be thugs while the noble is a wife-beater but his job helps people.

Racism is what kept us alive until now. Avoiding bears and wolves(maybe not all of them want to eat us!), crossing the street when you see a group of people with a different skin-color than you at night, being on lookout for missing things when you have to work with a gypsy etc. all of these are effects of racism, and they more often than not help you.

It's an obvious minus. He doesn't work well with a subset of the rest of the group.

>>148529681
In group out group mechanisms.

It's important to be able to distinguish from friendlies from enemies, be it human or animal.

>>148529748
that's not the definition of racism

>>148529681
We have a tribe mentality ingrained in all of us.
We are going to feel more comfortable with our own race. All the mental gymnastics and anecdotes in the world cannot refute this.

>>148529340
Don't get a big head about it

>>148529854
Racism is gained not breed.

>>148529854
this is irrelevant to the discussion

>>148529709
Of course I don't actually expect him to change it for his game m8, I was just doing some light banter on the topic.

>>148529781
It's the base cause of racism, before it had a word.

>>148529052
Make the animation move much faster so it looks like a hummingbird or an insect. The wings don't have enough articulation for it to pass as a regular bird.

Clarentdev here.

Lots of people has requested blocking, so shield spell will be in.

Now the colors for spells are:
axe = green
scythe = purple
dagger = blue
grappling hook = yellow/orange

What color would be good for shield? The health bar is red so it's color I'd like to avoid.

>>148529918
Real racism, note: Not the lefty high-jacked definition, is inherited as I stated earlier.
>>148529920
Not really.
It's not a positive or a negative, it's just a character trait.
Dichotomizing it is silly and a sign of a shitty writer.

>>148529781
>the belief that all members of each race possess characteristics or abilities specific to that race

"All wolves eat us, all bears attack us", this is where racism comes from.

>>148529918

this is also irrelevant to the discussion. you might have replied to the wrong person.

>>148530431
Hyperbole*

Races are different. Some tend to be more dangerous than others. It is potentially beneficial for small groups, such as tribes, to avoid a higher-risk race.

He's wrong with the "All" generalization, but averages count.

>>148530550
It all went back to whether racism is a positive or negative character trait.

It's neither, nor irrelevant to the original discussion presented.

Is it against the rules to reply to your own progress posts with "nice" and "good work"?

>>148530626
this discussion is about whether being warry about wolves and bears is racism. check who you're replying to

>>148530074
post a fucking picture nobody knows who you are

>>148530313
Now you're going into semantics. That's why I said it's where "racism" comes from, since racism is just a subbranch of xenophobia/generalizing/attributing some traits to all members of its species.
I mean technically there's even "positive racism" even though the word wasn't meant for that, like thinking all germans are punctual people, or thinking all those from Bahamas are joyful surfers. But again this is just semantics and moot to discuss.

>>148530653

>>148530675

Nigger you're new. Stop pretending everybody doesn't know who clarentdev is.

>>148530664
key-phrase is "original discussion".

Whether you're racist against e.g. black people means nothing about your ability to recognize a
bear as a danger.

However, it certainly says something about your potential to fuck up when collaborating with a black guy. This shit is not rocket science.

>>148530736
if your "original discussion" isn't about bears and wolves you shouldn't be quoting me.

I said "racism may lead someone to fuck up when that person needs to cooperate with a black guy" and you're spouting random nonsense about slacking off and how I'm ruining vidya.

No, when I say "fuck up" I don't mean the racist guy somehow stops working (???). I mean since he is racist, he is likely to not trust the black guy even in a critical situation, and when we're talking about group survival, that makes racism a real negative.

You don't give enough context.

>>148532097
Look into Space Station 13. It's compared to a simplistic version of space-DF quite often, though it's a multiplayer game rather than a singleplayer game where you control units like DF.

Drawing from that, some things you could order your dorfs to do could be: medical bay, science research, power generation, station sanitation, mining asteroids for raw materials, atmospherics/plumbing management, fending off space pirates, shielding from/repairing damage from meteor showers, et cetera.

Maybe have a look at FTL as well for inspiration as to what kinds of random events might happen to a dorf crew on a space station.

>>148528776
I understand, but the fact remains that you've put a buttload of action-death hazards into these levels and that's what makes it tedious because you're spending much more of your time and attention not dying rather than actually puzzling.

You are a black man with an orange spherical orb of ultimate power. Your goal is to cast it into the Ring of Eternity. Unfortunately, your fellow men have risen up to stop you and you must rely on sick jumping and dribbling powers to perform the ultimate three point shot while the buzzer ticks to zero.

Sorry, but I think there might be 3 kobold devs then.

Around April, if I'm not mistaken, there were two kobold devs. One with a browser game, and one with a regular game. They both worked on lewd kobolds. They often posted at the same time, so if you are not aware of the browser kobold dev, then you are yet another kobold dev. Besides, your style is different from the non-browser kobold dev's.

Sometimes I wonder what people like you feel or think.

I don't want to fall for your bait, but if anything, level design is in fact game dev. It's a shame there's so little talk about it. Everyone gets hyped by some pretty graphics, then gets buttmad at Demo Day when the game play and the levels are shit in the game. What did you expect when all you did was criticizing color choices when the dev posted progress?

You didn't make that music though did you? I mean it sounds amazing. That alone makes it. It's lacking a little visual detail.

Also you should add a little "space dust" here and there to enhance the sense of movement through space, and the astronauts should have little joysticks in their hands controlling their jetpacks.

Really hoping that is original music you have rights to.

But why? Model is not final but that's irrelevant, what I want to improve is the overall "design". As in how much should the beard cover the face, how "bald" should he be, what color should the beard be, how long should the shirt be, how long the pants, sleeves, etc. I didn't ask how to make a model with less polys and a normalmap.

i dont know how vectors are handled in whatever youre using but you could easily do it with 2d vectors like starting with

combinations of 1 and -1 should just cancel out or be a diagonal, but you can throw those out with a second operation

iv seen pixel FPS/sidescrollers but i think that style is shit for horror and same for top down

she should be much thinner and less muscular. as it is, she should be over 200 of just pure muscle, bitch is built like a linebacker

for reference, I'm 5'9" or 10" and pudgy and come up to 160 on a cheat day. someone 3 inches taller than me and weighing less should be downright lithe.

Simple level layout and design

I see a lot of shitty first person horror games played by youtubers. It can't be that hard for 1MA's
