Hello, again.
It’s been a long while for me to make MP3 tracks for Belgrad: Curse of the Castle. I was hoping to get this out by Halloween, but that was a no-go. Anyway, so far, I’ve got all my good little music stuff done.
…I just need to see if it needs more testing and fixing here and there.
Now, does anyone here want to try testing out this game before release, or anything that desperately needed fixing? Please, make your requests in the comments below.
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).
Two-level demo for Robot Maid P-NA-4 is here!
...but the game's still not in active development right now.
Why, yes, programming an elephant IS hard. Making its eyes blue is a lot easier, but I'm not doing that.
I also had to make sure it's a robot elephant, specifically, because this is a robot circus, and it's unethical to use real elephants.
What a bunch of clowns.
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.
Testing out a tentacle...
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".
This should help speed up the process.
...no guarantees, but until I have an official level-select menu, this'll do.
First you draw parts, then program a rig for animation.
I need to work on the "What does this guy actually do" part.
