i spawn them in parented to a socket on the hand. usually with a pivot on the prefab graphics to get things lined up properly. left hand ik as needed for two handed weapons. i’d say animation fidelity on my game is relatively low though so i dunno if there’s more stuff i should be doing to finesse ?

any melee hit can be immediately jump cancelled the moment you do damage AND resets your jump values so you can pogo on enemies using a down attack. ghost eater steam playtest is live! #hacknslash #cag #indiegame #indiegames #indiegamedev #indiedev

I've had the pleasure of watching Ghost Eater come together over the years, and let me tell you: it's really something special. But, I think you can probably easily see that for yourself? Just. Look. At. It. Playtest is live now, get on it!!! #indiegames #indiedev

tascam X8 is an excellent all in one and you can plug other specialty mics into it if needed (shotgun mic etc)

📌 Post 🎮 I made videos about enemy combat in games. 📺 I'd like to make more videos about game dev and media one day, hopefully something in '26/'27. ☠️ I worked on the cancelled KotOR Remake and Perfect Dark. ⚔️ Now I do combat design on a new game that people actually already play in closed alpha!

hm! yeah that’s is a lot of vertex streams. the control is crazy though! i think if i was gonna try this setup i would make a shader that just does only this. everytime i try and make a catch-all VFX shader it gets too big too fast. i mostly use a handful of simple smaller ones

logic for contextual ground to air / air to ground melee is in! previously you had to jump and then attack once you were in the air. amazing how much this small change gives KH energy🗝️ #gamedev #indiedev #madewithunity #unity3d

I think it’s why like making dance music. It’s less subjective to have that functional indicator there. It either makes you dance or it doesn’t!

It’s possible to have taste in code: I like this code, this code is not my style, but it’s secondary. If it works it still works. Maybe it works slower or sucks to work with, but it works. Taste in art is like, the whole thing
