Yup the player can still turn mid ease and it blends quite well :) I am very happy with the core controllers for both enemy and Player.

David Slade: Fallen City - Did the final polish pass on the character controller today with ease in and ease out of actions. Such as transitions from walk to run or run to stop and so on for example. Now the controller is silky smooth! #GameDev #IndieDev #PixelArt #Cyberpunk #Platformer

Cascadeur is a tool not a "Hold my beer" AI solution. The physics based AID is not a "click" and animation done kind of thing. You still need to know how to animate or it still will look bad regardless. Their AI model as far as I know its their in house dataset, but again is for correcting physics.

I catch them as I play test by hand, also have an analytic script I wrote that tracks memory leaks, spikes and so on which is better that the built in profiler as I get direct information at what's causing it right down to the line of code being the culprit. As a result the game feels tight.

David Slade: Fallen City - I made some good progress today on level design. I had to work on the path splines system a little more however, as I found a couple nasty bugs I thought I squashed. All fixed now, and works perfectly. Now I can sleep :D #GameDev #IndieDev #PixelArt #Cyberpunk #Platformer

David Slade: Fallen City - Sometimes when creating levels, having objects block the camera is inevitable, However I reworked my shader pipeline to handle that for me, where you can now see through walls that obstruct your view. #IndieDev #GameDev #IndieGameDev #IndieGame #IndieGames #gamer #gaming

Lets be honest here for a second. A big company says one thing and then behind closed doors will use it to cut staff, dev time and much more (Creative and other ways). With these big fish it is and always will be about corporate greed, meeting the shareholders profit bracket. I'm not fooled.

That's code for we own the IP and have zero plans to use it and there is nothing anyone can do about it. WD's was one of the best games I have played (1&2, Legion does not exist to me lol) Over all they not only play great the cities FEEL alive compared to other open world games. UBI Sucks.

Thanks for the kind words, The contrast is and will remain consistent it's crucial. As for the other stuff I already have that in place. Now all that's left are the remaining levels :)

Thanks! It will go onto the Unity Asset store eventually, as I still want to do some additional work on it, to improve it a little more. Like all of my Lab series assets, all wizard based, couple clicks and the project and system are setup with very little work on the users end. But instant results.

I created a whole render system for the game, this is not some post processing pass this is a dedicated Retro Look system. I am releasing the asset on the store eventually, mind you this is a heavy modified version specifically for Fallen City. Took me months to make just to retro tools haha

Careful with domain owned material like Sailor Moon on the TV, unless it's public Domain you could be in a world of trouble. Looks cool though :D

My question is hiring voice actors is expensive so should I do voice for in game or just cutscenes only and leave it as text only for game characters as shown in the video?? I would love to hear your thoughts.

I generally white board them first, then block n fill. But it's in good shape now for all of the levels to be next. I need to get a steam page / wishlist going asap.

Thanks, The Red is from the David Slade Text, But that's a minor tweak I can do later :) The UI Is 100% done as well but as always I will do one last polish pass just before release, however for now I have loads of level design to do next hahahaha Wish me luck ;)

David Slade: Fallen City. Question - I am curious what do you think of the ascetics of my game, I am personally happy with the end result. A dark & gritty cyberpunk detective story. Wrapped up into an action puzzle platformer. #IndieDev #GameDev #IndieGameDev #IndieGame #IndieGames #gamer #gaming

Yea they switch during gameplay, It's designed so I can layout the tracks where the gameplay takes place with ease. Saves me hours upon hours or work per level. Quick powerful and full featured. Including full camera control and so much more, all within a few simple clicks.

Thanks and you're right, doing it by hand would suck, Also it does kinda look like snow in the pic but it's just rough blocking for the floor, blown out by the VFX Now that all of the games tools are done I can blast through the levels now I have a tool for everything I need, to speed up development

I am literally making a game right now I almost walked away from then it turned into something so much more and has since become a passion project. Due to bugs and other issues which have since been fixed and I just completed the final polish pass. Now I SEE the entire project laid out in clarity!

As a solo dev I never listen to them for the simple reason they are over critical and have a skewed look on indie titles and do not speak for everyone. I have seen games get slammed in a bad light by "Influencers" but they end up being amazing games. Back to code I go haha

Watching Sony fall in real time. It's hilarious how these big studios / companies NEVER listen to their key customers and then wonder what went wrong. Talk about disconnected from reality and their actual user base. It's simple listen to the outcry and adjust accordingly. FAFO phase.

Thanks appreciate it. The reason why I am pushing so hard on this project is because I am very passionate about it, the story and my IP, and seeing that the code is now 100% complete, with some of cutscenes and levels remaining really makes it so close now I can taste it haha :D

David Slade: Fallen City Is one of those games that I love working on. However some days it's hard to hold onto the passion especially when you're the one doing it all by yourself. But keep pushing forward! Trailer soon! #IndieDev #GameDev #IndieGameDev #IndieGame #IndieGames #gamer #gaming

The first 5 seconds are what's called the "Hook" So make it hook the potential customer / player. Trailers should only ever have a logo at the end of the trailer, better yet the games logo with a company URL sub line, save the company logo for the start of the actual game only.
