The story of Daswaget. Episode 1: Prototype (or the story of my game engine and diploma project) The screenshot shows my diploma project running on the emulator

I decided to do a tank race to test the AI. Participants: 4 bots and me (gray tank)

Now the tank turret rotates realistically - at different speeds, depending on the movement of the tank. I tried to do this before, but it turned out very poorly and strange things happened

(Tank turning speed increased by ~4 times)

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

So I made a smart aiming of the tank turret at a moving target. This required a long mathematical formula, but it did not affect the optimization (I used 1500 tanks on one screen and there were no lags!)

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

First AI tests

At the moment, bots are like zombies - they follow the player and can avoid obstacles in their path, but they don’t always succeed

They are very stupid, but I will try to make them smart

I've been making AI for my game for over a month. It was a long and difficult process, I even lost several kilograms. The result is on the GIF. In my opinion it turned out very well, although not perfect

Stuck on a puzzle?

Don’t worry — Tina’s got you 🧸

Every horror game has one doll.

Ours is... weirdly helpful?

I improved my old tank control code. It used to be 400+ lines, but now it's only 66. Only 66, Carl!

This is very cool, but while I was rewriting my code, many bugs appeared, for example, when I clicked on WASD, I controlled all the tanks at once (GIF)
