    That "key before door" thing is a golden rule of game design I've seen a lot of people overlook. It was fun watching you learn it in real time.

    Maybe you can make more content to this game in this style, like: "Add enemies in an hour"

    And I don't know, but I feel like the 5 minutes for the camera stuff were worth it, adds a bit more style to the game ^^

    Woah! what a small world , in the video you show footage of you standing next to Miguel from titled game jam. We are good friends and I use to work with him! Cool stuff , always wanted to make it out to their Game Jams but never have. Definitely gonna try the 1 hour challenge.

    This is fun. I love watching people create these. But I cant help to think that it should be a 2 hour challenge instead of 1 hour. 2 hours still short enough that you can cram it in some spare time, and is long enough that you can do a little more than the basics movement and actually create a little game. All the videos that I've watched with a 1 hour challenge. All they make is a lil guy move around and jump on platforms.

    Nice! Definitely seems like a good challenge! I agree, it is kind of cool to look back and see what you spent the most/least time on. Sometimes the time pressure messes with your brain a bit, but it happens :D I think the asset pack was a great pick, and getting a few good levels in is impressive. Great Job!

  • @robertonome2448
    @robertonome2448 Před 4 lety +2

    Great video!
    Just a tip: The camera is much easier to control using the tween behavior instead of lerp (the old c2 technique when there was no official tween plugin)
    For camera counter weights I tend to use invisble sprites and control their width, and tracking the camera to some image point of it (specially if the game is a shooter). You could even go fancier and include a line of sight behavior to cast rays (to always detect wheres the nearest wall and such)

    Lerp will linearly (at a constant rate) go between (interpolate) 2 values. Its basically "if i am x% between these 2 values, and the rate of change between these 2 values is constant, what value am I?"

      When click & play came out i had it running on my celeron powered windows pc. After that Multi media fusion. Then after a long stop from game building i found construct 2. Holy cow i was amazed at how far "Visual scripting" had come. Have been using construct 2 ever since and after al these years using it i know it inside out. You will have a blast!!! I can tell you that. Construct 3 is also great, just know that to this day third party construct 2 plugins are still not ported yet. (Atleast a lot of them are not) So depending on what you want, you might be better of going for C2. Just a heads up ;-)

    devs, you can't even make a good game in 4 years, why do you always do these things? I mean, I really like game jams, and challenges about doing a game in a short time but, at least 2 weeks, in least than that, you just will do things worse than counter strike
