I pretty much never say this about screen shake...but yeah I agree with Absinthe. I think it's mild enough that it's good feedback without being disorienting.
This is good to have. Options for stuff like this is nice, IMO.
I am still making a game but it took a huge drop in size and scale so I can actually make something and release it in one lifetime, so here are some random gif's
I removed it once (and the hit pause) as it a test and it really removes a lot of the feedback for successfully hitting the candles - feels like you're cutting through them like butter, rather than twatting them with a big ass whip
It probably feels a lot better than it looks. I'll look into adding an option to disable it, like I did device vibration when you die.
Stupid question time... What is rotoscoping?

Those screens look awesome! What size are the character´s sprites, 42x32? I ended up with over 64x32 sprites and they don´t look so detailed by a mile, not to talk about the animation fluidity...and I´m using a tablet. Whenever I try to do something by hand I haver to scrap it. Mad props to you! Do you have a devblog or something where I could follow development of your game?I am still making a game but it took a huge drop in size and scale so I can actually make something and release it in one lifetime, so here are some random gif's

. Ah, let's double the amount of levels, let's add secret areas, bonus levels, a level editor, let's add leaderboards, let's add rush levels, different ball skins, etc. Having a release date (window) now helped me say "nope, that's it, nothing more, anything else as free DLC or something". Just finishing now what I started. (I hope) (it's hard to ignore that ideas.txt file with over 300 lines) (please help me) (god, what would have happend if I had started an RPG?)My problem with my game's scale was the other way around. Started as a small balls game and grew bigger and bigger and I couldn't stop
Aye, it just lost some impact, and back when I put it in, people who tested the game said that the game -felt- better in that build. All I'd done is add screen shake and make the candle smoke bigger. Simple things, I guess.
Last year I spent 48 hours making a very VERY quick game because I was getting annoyed at doing the same thing every day, shortly after I felt like making a sequel to the quick game but with more structure and over the last few months it's pretty much turned into a mini version of what I wanted to make anyway, so I stuck with it.
These retro sprites are at the most 64x64 but I hardly need all the space, stuff like standing is only about 48 pixels tall and 24 wide.
If the chip has some cycles to spare after generatingFancy stuff. Your screenshot gave me traumatic JTAG environment flashbacks.
JTAG is cool when you bring a dead board to life, but I hated the environment I had to use (something by Wind River). I think it was some sort of unholy creation built on top of Eclipse with a wide variety of bizarre behaviors. One time, an option might be on a pulldown menu and a right click menu. Another time, the option might only be on ONE of those. Sometimes it might simply stop responding and you'd have to restart some services or the entire thing.
I want to dive into JTAG further down the road possibly when I'm going to
What JTAG device are you going to use, and on what hardware/board?

The visual style is based in the quick weekend project and solid colour sprites are a ton better to animate quickly then detailed stuff.

This is a quick visual difference between what I want to make and what I am currently working with, the big stuff already has animation frames but they still have the older visual style of black lines and genrally look poor now.
And how the old sprite used to look from about 2013~2014
Once files get too big I feel the need to split them up just to make them easier to navigate. Depending on your IDE and how you like to get around your project it can be a pain or no worry at all.Popstar, obviously you've sucked some sort of threading luck out of the aether, and everyone else is going to suffer the yang to your yin.
On another note, my game doesn't really do anything yet, but my main game state file is 3000+ lines alone. Does anyone else ever hit files that big? It's kind of scary.
