Actually, the purple goo guy ha sbeen working on his for a lot longer, and it still looks like shit.

>tfw Godot devs, Nintendo, Gooman and Whimpdev are all making the same game

Neat

>>179926810
saying it "looks like shit" is too much honestly
assets are pretty damn good but what is lacking is polish, it just doesn't look well assembled and the juice/feel is off (square particles after the toilet chomp are the biggest offender)

>>179927052
I think the assets look pretty bad alone, but it really looks shit when you put it all together and give it (janky) motion.

I need to make a variable in Unreal that can hold any struct.
Is this possible? Can structs be cast?

>>179930581
I was worried that was it. Guess I'll just have to make objects.

>>179930539
I'm trying to design a save system to be as generic as possible. The data I want to save might vary by actor type but I should ideally be able to put all saved actors in a single data structure, so it would be useful if I could make a generic struct variable to hold a struct containing all data specific to a particular actor.

Is your game a Meow Mix or a Cat Food?

>>179931036
Cats also eat bugs

>>179930992
they recently did a stream on saving and loading maybe you should watch that?

>>179930992
This would only be possible if structs supported inheritance, which they do not in blueprints.

>arguably the prettiest platformer
Arguably not at all. Squishy and simplistic vector art with dubious hitboxes.

>tons of content
True enough.

>tons of mechanics
Yes

>good controls
Eh, Rayman always felt a bit sluggish and slippery. The movement has weird acceleration and feels floaty.

>great music
It's OK.

>charm everywhere
It's OK.

If you think it's the best platformer ever you're just weird, m8

>>179939248
Like i said, tell me one thats better thats not tropical freeze because its not.

>>179939321

Super Mario World 3
Contra 3/4
Most Castlevanias
New fucking Super Mario bros
SQRXZ
Cave Story (although also strangely floaty)
Super Meat Boy
Ghost 'N Ghouls
etc.?

I'd say most platformers are better than Rayman, to be honest. I really don't get why it receives so much praise.

>>179939642
Of course he doesn't.

>>179939530

literally no 2d game named so far has as many comparable attributes.

>>179940559
All the attributes mentioned are easily comparable, and Rayman does it worse than most other games in all categories, man.

Simple decal shadows for collectibles; I tried using dynamic texture render target generation for enemy shadows but unless I can figure out how to SERIOUSLY optimize the culling process for that, it's just not performance-sensible. Switching from lit enemies to shadow-projected enemies costs me 15FPS running in-editor with a grand total of like, 12 enemies placed in the level.

Now, if I can figure out an efficient, stable way of disabling that rendering if the enemy is X world units from Dixie it might be plausible.

In the realm of actual gameplay, added the 4th charge/toss attack for swords. Rather than being a rotating multi-hitter, this one is a smash attack that just flings the sword forward. Some new logic written to account for this type of projectile, and I'll probably also be adding summoned fist flags for these since typically smash attacks have summoned fists attached.

Not really sure how to answer that.

>>179947487
Unity converts everything to it's proprietary mesh/skeletal/texture/animation system without any indication of Maya's version. If you include the original asset in fbx form, however, Autodesk will be able to tell.

It's called Funny Story and it's a 2d rpg with really traditional turn based combat. It has a few gimmicks like enemies having emotions and being able to befriend characters or piss them off.
I'm fully prepared for people to blast it for being an undertale ripoff. I like to think it's different enough for it to be interesting still, though.

Yep, it's gonna be crap and you should feel crap for ripping of undertale.
Undertale was a one time thing thin skinned furry loving degenerates liked, ripping it off is retarded.
At least have the self respect to rip off a better title at least.
However, I like your attitude and dedication, so I'd say shill it to your heart's content, not here,but on reddit(they'll definitely appreciate it more than here). At least you worked on a game so that's a plus. Just don't expect a miracle, and use half of the funds you get for your next original game.

There definitely needs to be a drawback to passing or else it's too easy to just give all your turns to the strongest character.
In Nocturne, for example, you can normally get an extra turn by hitting an enemy's weakness, which causes one of your turn counters to start flashing instead of being consumed. Flashing turn counters are always consumed no matter what action you take, so you can't get infinite turns. The way Nocturne balances passing is by making it cause a turn counter to start flashing (or consume one if there are none that aren't flashing), potentially denying you an extra action.

Also, it looks like you pass two turns to the bee but she only takes one action. What's up with that?

>>179957435
It's not that I don't like it, I haven't played it yet. But from the first glance, it seems like an exact, colored copy of undertale. While this might seem like a positive idea for shilling, it turn off most people.No need to be sorry, I said that at least you made/are making a game. Plus, all great gamedevs are at first inspired by some other game they try to copy. Just that undertale is a really fucking shitty thing to even play, let alone copy. Good luck with the game ,world always could use dedicated gamedevs, they're miles better than ideaguys or nodevs at least.
>>179957570
>undertale invented x
Where in my post did I say anything like that ? However, undertale did pander to furries and tumblr newfags in gneral who never heard of other games who pioneered the idea, so for THEM, it might as well have.There is no arguing with those people, just like kids who think halo invented FPS.

>>179958235
The only thing it seems to have in common with Undertale is that it's clearly inspired by Earthbound.
Did you perhaps not actually play Undertale?

>>179958549
The dev literally mentioned undertale in his post

>>179958549
Again, it doesn't matter how much it's actually like Undertale. What matters is the perception. Post-Undertale, any classic RPG on kickstarter will be compared to it.

And this one uses the references feelings, so that's enough to say Nice Undetale Clone.

>it seems like an exact, colored copy of undertale
The only way you could think this is if you didn't play Undertale. The setting and gameplay are clearly quite different, and the art style is more SNES-like.
It seems to have more in common with Shin Megami Tensei than Undertale.

>But people who've never played any RPG that isn't Undertale will think it's like Undertale, so that makes it an Undertale clone

Alright, thanks for the honest feedback in any case. I know it seems derivative of undertale (which is why I mentioned it) but I also said I think it's still unique enough to stand on its own. But for that trailer I just needed a gimmick to put in there, so it came down to the feelings bit. If I didn't do that, it'd just seem like any generic jrpg.
