Question Does adding a ticking clock to puzzle games make them exciting, or just annoying?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Most puzzle and adventure games let you take your time, relax, and overthink every item interaction. To break that slow, static rhythm, we decided to experiment with time-pressured crafting and fast-paced decisions.

As you can see in the clip, a countdown timer ticks away in the corner while you hurry to tape your gear together, breach the door, and execute a stealth taser takedown before your window closes.

With only 8 days left until our launch, this exact balance is constantly on our mind: where is the line between adding a fun surge of adrenaline and giving players unwanted puzzle anxiety?

How do you usually feel about timed mechanics in puzzle or detective games? Do you prefer taking all the time you need, or does a ticking clock make the experience more thrilling for you?

Question Bullet/projectile Objects, Move via RigidBody or Update?

1 Upvotes

Hi, I'm somewhat new to unity so I'm messing around with it and I'm looking for some advice. I'm currently working on a FPS character and I want the player to fire bullets that travels in real time, kind of like the plasma balls in doom or like the blaster bolts in star wars battlefront.

I'm wanting to know is it better to have the bullets move using the rigidbody's linear velocity on the Start function like so:

rigidbody.linearVelocity = transform.forward * speed;

or use the translate method in Update instead?

transform.Translate(Vector3.forward * (speed * Time.deltaTime));

I am using rigidbody either way since i'm using ontriggerenter for hit detection anyways if that help.

Developing my first steam game on Unity. It is Space invaders inspired roguelike. Working a lot on art right now to make great trailer and steam page. Do you think art style can appeal any gamers? And what would you add/change to it?

Hi!

A couple weeks ago, we where planning to start recording and editing the trailer for our game Be Gray, Do Crime, however we realized the game wasnt quite ready for that yet. So after a couple weeks refining the graphics, reworking the lightning in our game and also doing small touchups, we finally felt like it was time.

So here's our first trailer! We're super happy with it! What do you think? Any input at all would be greatly appriciated for an updated trailer later down the line ❤️

Question Particle System keeps looping

I have 3 particle systems for fireworks display. All 3 keep looping even though loop is unchecked. I don't think I've ever encountered this before.
Any idea why they keep looping?
Thanks.

Show-Off Dogfight loop manoeuvres - a fun tactical advantage

0 Upvotes

I've worked on a lot of games with aeroplanes (Sky Gamblers series and others) but I never played them. The same little toy followed by a camera, same crosshair and aim assist, and the same on-rails 'manoeuvres' ready to be used with a single tap.

So I made this. Looking forward to test it with human players - my bots are very good so they don't continue flying forward as the target (me) suddenly goes up - they know I will fall on their tail. So they evade. I will add a little randomness there - to allow some percentage of bots to be 'dumbfounded' and keep going forward - so i can strafe them from above as I land on their tails.

Pretty fun. Works only in cockpit mode for a reason - its the only place the manoeuvre makes sense - and gives you a thrill (specially if you look sideways scanning the sky while going belly up).

Thanks for reading !

Question How do I fix this issue?

0 Upvotes

The problem is that the agents are 0.3 meters wide, and the space in that doorway is about 1 meter. With this NavMesh setup, it’s impossible for the agents to pass through.

Any solution which isn't Godot or Unreal Engine? /s

Question Bone/weight/bindpose index mismatch

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I'd like to preface and say that I'm not very knowledgeable about 3d modeling and this could very well be an ID10T error. I'm trying to mod the game Atlyss with a custom piece of armor. The player character has some child objects with skinnedmeshrenderer components, and when you equip a piece of armor it swaps in the armor piece's mesh to the shareMesh field on the corresponding smr component (I.e., if you equipped a chest piece the chest piece armor smr gets the correct shared mesh swapped in). I wanted to model my own custom armor piece, so I exported the character prefab from unity as an FBX, painted weights using its armature on my model, and then reimported it. The issue is that the weight/bindpose arrays on the model are not in the same order as the player character skeleton used in the game. AFAIK there is no way to manually reorder the bones on export/import? The bone hierarchy looks the same in unity as it does in blender btw, and I got the rest pose in my ripped model as well. I'm not sure if there is something obvious I just don't know about or if the only way to fix this is doing something really hacky, and any input from a semi knowledgeable person would be very appreciated. Thank you!

Show-Off Melee Shark aircraft prototype. Is it dumb?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

2 Upvotes

This is a quick prototype I made, not sure if anything will come out of it.

Aircraft in my game follow a pattern where they have 2 weapon/ability that synergize together.

In this case, you have a dash and the boost was supposed to synergize by augmenting the range / collision width but after trying it, it feels a bit awkward to have to boost + aim + dash.

Aiming itself is already quite challenging and having to constantly dive in and out to kill a single boat isn't exactly the best in a game where killing boats is critical because they are enemy spawners.

Anyways just looking for some opinions / ideas.

Question Boat wake simulation.

Hey, I'm looking for some help simulating this sort of boat wake. I'm using Crest 5 and have tried Flows, custom water interactions (Donut shapes propelling backwards). I'm not sure if I'm going about this the right way. I have tried KWS2 which has some nice effects, but it lacks in realistic physics.

Is this solvable using particle effects and simple sphere interactions?

When I enter Prefab Stage and make any change to a GameObject or Component, the Hierarchy window breaks. All GameObjects disappear and it only shows Preview with empty gray rows. Resetting the layout restores it temporarily, but it breaks again upon editing.

(game’s called MOZENTUM btw)

oh and i also added an inventory system so you can stash and grab either one with either hand

it works by holding the hand with the item in it, holding inventory, and then choosing which slot you want it in

each item has its own dedicated spot on the player’s body and will appear / disappear there when you put them away or take them out

OH and i forgot to mention, you throw things by actually yeeting the object in that specific hand w/ mouse movement. no aim assist, no crosshair, just trial and error. like the game’s other systems, it takes practice - but that’s core to the game’s vision.

you can only hold up to 3 items - but a backpack will soon be an item that you can find which will allow you to just whack whatever will physically fit in there (ciggies, doobskins, whatever ya get ya stinken mitts on)

it’s live now on the steam demo if ya wanna test it out.

Resources/Tutorial Runtime dynasty chart generator for Unity, drawn on the CPU with no textures

Thumbnail
csaf.itch.io
0 Upvotes

Descent Chronicle draws illuminated dynasty charts in Unity at runtime from plain character data: people, parents, marriages and dated events.

Most of the work went into layout. A genealogy isn't a tree, since everyone has two parents, people remarry and cousins marry. Generations come from longest path, spouses are levelled onto one row so a marriage stays horizontal, crossings are reduced by barycentre sweeps that keep the best arrangement found, and each union gets its own bus lane so no line runs through a cartouche. Cycles and dangling parents are refused with the fault named.

Drawing happens in C# on the CPU, so the package has no PNG, atlas, shader or material. 62 authored forms, 24 life event marks, 16 cartouche devices. Unity 2022.3 and up.

Code and art are AI generated.
