This should help speed up the process.
...no guarantees, but until I have an official level-select menu, this'll do.
As a writer, you learn to just make stuff up. As a science-fiction writer, you justify the stuff you just make up.
"Derma" is related to "skin", and "myo" is related to "myoelectric prosthesis".
Possible default protagonists, Charlie (guy with hat) and Bonnie (girl with dress). Using a similar palette, because I can.
I would alter the faces, but I like appeal, and without the pixel-noses, they'd look like chibis at that size.
Despite anything resembling better judgment, and this not going into any demos, I decided to implement a swinging mechanic.
I got it working. You can control the swing (loosely), and can stretch and retract the arm. It even adds a bit of momentum.
I don't know if I went too far, or not far enough. The hand-clamps work, but that's not being demonstrated here.
I figured out an easier way to program arranging angles on a rig.
It involves choosing which body part to move, then using the mouse to calculate an angle.
Namely, angle= point_direction(x, y, mouse_x, mouse_y).
What a bunch of clowns.
Strangely enough, of all the games I've made .exes of, this is the one that STILL works on my current computer. And sometimes, I realize I made some poor decisions in game design with this one.
Well, I was looking through some old files, and found some cool stuff.
Two-level demo for Robot Maid P-NA-4 is here!
...but the game's still not in active development right now.
