Wait you have a gaming discord?

Congrats on the launch!

Amazing

whoops late response lol

The wiimote's accelerometer-based motion controls weren't very good, but its IR camera pointer controls were fantastic. It's a shame motion controls became synonymous with the former instead of the latter.

If you like cheesy live-acted cutscenes, I recommend Roundabout. Or at least watching its trailer. Or if you don't have time to actually play games, there was an SGDQ run where they did a speedrun but left the cutscenes on, but I think they end up skipping some due to tricks.

Level builders/editors

They're a lot harder to make with modern / 3D games.

But they also seem to boost a game's long-term audience by a lot, so it's weird they're not more common.

...I should make something that needs a level editor instead of always doing procedural stuff.

You could still squeeze a Wario Ware microgame into one of them.

I think it would be hard to fit a minigame into a loading screen without making the loading screen longer due to loading the minigame, though. Like it'd be easy enough if you were coding your loading system from scratch, but modern games are mostly built using big pre-existing engines, which are full of their own assumptions about how loading works.

Have you seen Backpack Battles? It's an autobattler that's 90% inventory tetris.

I've played way too much of it.

I'm surprisingly good at it, given the amount of practice I've put in so far. But I need to really buckle down and do daily practice if I want to get properly good.

Come to me for what? ? ?

If it's advice on how to do 3D modelling, the answer is:

• BlenderGuru donut tutorial

• Same guy UV unwrapping (not as good as the donut tutorial but it's simple)

• Some other guy on rigging

I don't know what that is!

Thanks!

Yeah that's Blender.
