have a look! https://vimeo.com/40625481 It will be asteroids meets diablo if you can imagine such a thing/ |
| ||
Video looks nice! |
| ||
hey, thanks! It's taking me a while to refamiliarise myself with where i was. I have a tendency to over-engineer myself into corners. :) Need to work on data i/o first of all then build the meta-game part, then it will be functional and playable. :) |
| ||
Looks good. |
| ||
Like it. Clean graphics and some fancy FX. :) |
| ||
btw. what does the blue circle around ship stands for? |
| ||
Could be a radar of some sort. |
| ||
Yes thought the same but can't see how it works from the video, thus not sure. |
| ||
Looks very nice. How's it going to be like Diablo, though? |
| ||
hey there, - yes the blue circle is a kind of radar. there are red chevrons for enemies and blue for asteroids (for now) As for the diablo-ness, it will be the structure of the meta-game more than the immediate gameplay. From a hub of some kind, there will be revisit-able themed areas each with some randomisation. Progression will be grind based and there will be some kind of bosses to punctuate the progression. I usually get too many gameplay ideas which can lead to weird tangents so I'm more focused on getting this all working smoothly this time. :) |
| ||
That looks amazing. Is it pure Blitzmax? |
| ||
Yeah just good old blitzmax. :) |
