That's TBA for now
Maybe when the game gets a firm release date. Right now it doesn't even have that. Just gotta wait and see

"I want a key to (insert game here). How can I get one?"
Keys are currently being posted at random intervals (usually about once a day) with whoever being able to redeem the key the fastest getting access. This is the only way to currently get access to the pre alphas and other free stuff. Key beggers will be ignored so dont bother asking.

Not sure about Zag

Though, Zag isn't a Dusk dev
jade root
Pixel Pusher and sixixix are American too, but I could be mistaken

Zag works on SGS, right?
austere egret
Ah
warm umbra
Well, I can probably wait another year for this game
austere egret
Its coming out sometime this year, not entirely sure when though
My guess, sometime in October/November/December
But then again, it could be pushed back
It all depends on how quickly David can finish it, and if there are no roadblocks between now and then
warm umbra
When it's Done (TM)

Yep
All we can is this
It'll be out sometime between now and the heat death of the universe

I've seen conflicting information here and there. What engine is Dusk being programmed in? I'm hearing both the Unity and Unreal engines as candidates.
hexed roost
It's Unity
jagged verge
So, does that mean it's going to be on Linux as well? If memory serves, Unity can compile into Windows, Macintosh, and Linux. Native Linux support would be nice.
vague egret
linux is TBA
mild ginkgo
theoretically it could probably be built for linux, but not all features are so simply cross compatible, especially shaders, so it will heavily depend on what the dev does with the game
TBA is the best answer
gleaming berry
We have a working Mac build
Linux should be pretty doable
I want it on all 3
definitely before consoles
if we ever do consoles
2fast4console
warm umbra
consoles are doo doo
gleaming berry
I mean we have enough autoaim options to make it work
and the game is hyper fast with enemies or numbers like a serious sam
warm umbra
make a 2nd anniversary edition for consoles
gleaming berry
so you could probably play it fine on console
we'll have solid controller support either way
warm umbra
Also, noticed your review on Bombshell
π
One question, how do the jump pads and flipping mechanics work? @gleaming berry
jade root
Flipping mechanic: While in the air the y axis unlocks, allowing you to aim in any direction
It doesn't have to be off a jump pad
mild ginkgo
yeah you can just backflip from a normal jump
the boostpads are not to predetermined locations like quake is
its just a vertical boost and you carry your own momentum
it also effects enemies and projectiles
jade root
But there is realistic fall damage so you die if you use one :/
mild ginkgo
^this is the most true thing ever clearly
gleaming berry
The Y axis is always unlocked
you can flip just by jumping and spinning your mouse real hard
FALL DAMAGE IS NOT ALLOWED
mild ginkgo
The Y axis is always unlocked if you are in the air in any way, if you are standing on the ground, its locked to the usual vertical 180
gleaming berry
ICYMI they like halved the fall damage in STRAFE - dis is gud
toxic wadi
fall damage is heck
gleaming berry
well they want you to die
warm umbra
If you fall down head first, do you just realign yourself and let quaternions set you up straight?
jade root
Yeah you realign
mild ginkgo
yes, @warm umbra
warm umbra
nice
pastel venture
FALL DAMAGE IS NOT ALLOWED
ππΌ
toxic wadi
the plan was to do a roll or something, right
mild ginkgo
you used to be able to bunny hop on your head
but that has since been nearly elimated
warm umbra
A lot of people with motion sickness are probably going to complain but
eh
what can you do
jade root
You don't have to do it
jade root
The flips are for fun really
warm umbra
I suppose you can put an option for locking the axis?
jade root
There prolly will be
warm umbra
yeah, just to shut people up
jade root
Called "Not Cool Guy" mode
exotic ibex
ye they fixed the fall damage in strafe. it doesnt do nearly as much damage and the height was increased roughly 35%
warm umbra
because flipping looks pretty rad cowabunga
jade root
Nice lingo
mild ginkgo
its very difficult
requires some real training/skill to make the flipping useful more than cool
jade root
Only scoot has that skill
warm umbra
I'm sure it was a pain messing with quaternions to get the flipping mechanic right too
pastel venture
are there teleporters?

right now there is only the pre pre pre alpha build

yes you would
youd be able to play the pre pre pre alpha
which is a 1 level demo

Ah cool cool, works. Not trying to sound like a sellout but I operate a large tech youtube channel (100K+) and I've been using quake for all of my gaming keyboard tests and I've been looking for a new game to test on and I came across your game Dusk and I had to know when I could get my hands on it.

fair jolt
The only thing that strikes me as odd about this game is how many levels they're planning. Likes of Quake had 3 or 4 level designers. 33 levels is a lot! Impression I've had is this games got one?
forest rain
fair jolt
That's true but looking back at the amount of single player mods that petered out vs the less level design intensive multiplayer mods it was pretty clear what was more work. That said during the q1, 2 and hl1 era lots got done by individuals. Jump to the source engine everything seemed to take 10x longer
Same with RTS games any amateur could start modding total Annihilation but supreme commander required lots of community coordination
prisma halo
David's just super talented, if you have the skill you can definitely manage 33 levels
You should see some of the crazy skilled people in the Doom community that put out megawads
flat inlet
look up probuilder for unity, creating levels is easier then ever, you just gotta know good level design and have good ideas pretty much
flat inlet
also you can use houdini and do procedural modeling on some stuff, you dont need a big team to do good stuff
thorn trout
@fair jolt it's because I'm insane, basically :P
Serious answer though is that the retro aesthetic combined with modern tools makes it possible for me to do the levels myself.

usually if it's dave he just drops them in a random channel here
if it's mine or lain's we usually make things a bit harder than just copy pasting

we're not in any way affiliated with g2a or any other grey market merchant. but yea the keys look like and are activated the same way as anything else on steam

okay, thanx π u said u drop them somewhat daily and i haven't seen any. am excited for your game ;))

nah not daily. they just happen from time to time π

im trying to rob 500 of the glitched run
the only two problems im having is getting the boost and getting past the door letherneck
and its hard
this is why i did endless god damnit
graceful wing
try completely restarting the game. could be that resetting is slightly offsetting that spawn
as you know things get kinda weird after you've been playing for a while
exotic ibex
ye
theres only two ways to improve upon this. break the window and exit faster and grab the can faster
fuck. me.
exotic ibex
i think 18 is possible
but no more than that
i'll conquer the 100% run first since thats a stress free 2:02
subtle bane
lmao nice boost
radiant venture
@exotic ibex you stop for a short while so you get a bit more room
exotic ibex
cant hop past the nerd while the door is opening?
radiant venture
no, you'll get stuck
that's what I did
or
I stopped jumping, so I gave him a bit of time to move

throw me a link to your run if you dont mind
the one i've got suggests 500 hopped in the upper right corner over its shoulder

watching all these DUSK gameplay videos is depressing me
this game was made for me π¦

iz gut. you'll see an influx of keys drop when E1 drops.
which should be sometime between literally now and 5 months

it's difficult, I either miss them by seconds/minutes or I stay up all night and there's no drop lol

ye daves living situation is fucked right now. should be back to normal in a week or two. maybe a bit more
back to runnin

ahh i see
yeah that wont get me the glitched record
not without miliseconds tracked
radiant venture
is glitched that tight?
exotic ibex
he only makes room twice from what i can tell
when breaking the window and exiting and grabbing the can
maybe the boost too but its really tight from what i can see
without miliseconds tracked i have just a bit more than literally 0 faith
that i could do it
radiant venture
I think tracking milliseconds is a good thing to have in a speedgame
exotic ibex
it'll be there in the final game.
you got the standard run, 500 has the glitched. im gonna try and get the 100%
radiant venture
π
hundo could be really interesting in duks demo, especially since the level is very open so you can get a lot of monsters together and nuke
exotic ibex
not entirely sure thats the best option outside of an area or two
quiet rose
earnest relic
game is barely done and people are already speedrunning it
exotic ibex
is this a problem?
as far as i know the level in the demo we have now isnt playable
thus its worth speedrunnin
thorn trout
ep1 build has miliseconds tracked and a "record time" button that acts like a stopwatch
also it records total time between levels
and once a level is completed you can elect to start there with a custom weapon inventory, and the total time should calculate from that point on
and your best time for each level is automatically recorded
lotsa features to help with speedrunning

because you're the best david

@gleaming berry yeah the 'glitchless'run is now 55 seconds, and the 'glitched' is 19 seconds. Both naming categories are a subject of debate
gleaming berry
what else would you name them?
autumn compass
your life
exotic ibex
the idea i remember seeing was glitchless was quake% and glitched was half-life%
i liked that personally
mild ginkgo
Noo
The problem is that for one, the glitchless uses a glitch
And two, we don't like propjunps in the run
So 'any %, no propjumps' and 'oob%' are likely names
See @radiant venture for this topic
exotic ibex
as much as i liked quake% and half life % that works a lot better
gleaming berry
so what are we gonna call em?
dont AGDQ use any %
and uhh complete %
or something
WHAT DO THE OFFICIALS USE
sharp summit
100% and any%
gleaming berry
sounds about right
mild ginkgo
the categories are usually a little more detailed than that, its really game dependant
any% will likely be the main category
but that will mean propjumps are allowed
and they dont really feel like they fit in the run in an interesting way
and then OOB is well, oob
exotic ibex
yeah. not a fan of propjumping. it doesnt make the run interesting.
quiet rose
^^^^^^^^^^
exotic ibex
like brainfluids run still blows my mind. routing this 100% run was vastly more interesting than i thought it would be. propjumping is just fucking lame. its interesting once and only once.
mild ginkgo
pretty much
youl lhave to beat gilbo's 100%
my hundo is like 4 mins lol
his is like 2 something
mild ginkgo
also theres lots of time to be shaved on the glitched one if you were determined
exotic ibex
its just takign longer than i thought and even then when i get it someone could take the route and snatch the record from me easily
mild ginkgo
2 full seconds to the ladder pretty much
exotic ibex
i have my doubts man
toxic wadi
i have never found a secret in the dusk demo level. am i shit at the game
mild ginkgo
6 second ladder is the best
exotic ibex
that start up to the ladder was pretty much perfect and i cant do that
mild ginkgo
that run was an 8 second ladder
i can do 6
that run was just bad
but it took me 25 minutes and was a meme to troll gilbo
exotic ibex
i'll give my hand at it when i get the 100% but im targetting the easier goal first
crimson folio
will episode 1 have fidget spinner saw blade
quiet rose
@crimson folio No.
crimson folio
oh ok
radiant venture
any% isn't the main category by default
the category that most people run is main
any% in dark souls for example is a meme, while all bosses is the main category afaik

exotic ibex
im gettign 3:30 consistently just practicing but 3 dudes every time
toxic wadi
attic dudes?
exotic ibex
nope
im mercin them
hitting them before as i drop off the roof
albiet slowly
im about to start drawing a topdown of this fucking map
okay, got it.
i forgot about the roof soldier and the two soldier in the ground floor at the back of the house
now i just need to git gud

Propjumping is lame
atomic egret
Hank my record is 2:04 not 2:02
crimson folio
Have you even tried doing it in dusk?
thorn trout
propjumping is hilarious. That's why I didn't fix it :)
exotic ibex
if i can get sub 2min then i'll be happy
atomic egret
It was a fluke
exotic ibex
i dont like propjumping for the reason i stated previously
its interesting once and only once.
atomic egret
I've never gotten anywhere close since
crimson folio
Propjumping looks cool in dusk from my perspective
It's freaking hard to do though
atomic egret
Projumping is pro
crimson folio
Tried it like 50 times and barely got it a few times and I wasn't even moving anywhere, just going up
We'll see what you'll have to say when I get the WR in episode 1 using propjumping :^)
exotic ibex
i'll ignore it for the most part
i seperate propjumps from quake style runs
i really hope these types of runs get defined during E1
crimson folio
Yeah, makes sense
exotic ibex
i reeeeeally liked the quake% and halflife% thing
thorn trout
Yeah I think prop jumping should be its own run category
you can break progression with it super easily, because I think that's awesome
but I think runs are more interesting if it's not allowed
atomic egret
What about other methods of oob
exotic ibex
i really like the 100% run on the demo level cause propjumping isnt helpful
oob is oob
the moment you leave the level its oob
crimson folio
Halflife%?
exotic ibex
thats why prop jumping within bounds has to be discussed
half life utilizes a lot of propclimbing in its runs
crimson folio
Ah
exotic ibex
if dusk ever gets run at AGDQ i desperately hope its not a propclimb run
exotic ibex
of course
quake makes it in fairly frequiently. i dont see why dusk wouldnt.
maybe once but i have no doubt it would land there.
toxic wadi
I would love to see a Dusk AGDQ run
thorn trout
I mean, if it didn't end up being very popular it probably wouldn't have a shot
exotic ibex
im not sure if dusk will be a long run across all three episodes.
it'll have a better chance the shorter it is
i think
thorn trout
I don't think it's a long run? I mean, I can get through ep1 in about half an hour and I'm not speedrunning.
the alpha level is about average size/length
of ep1 levels
exotic ibex
really going for a quality > quantity, huh?
i can see it being less than half an hour then
if E2 and E3 is about the same length
i say the quality quantity thing because i thought it would be longer than that but quality > quantity can really pay off more than a longer game.
toxic wadi
you can beat doom's ep1 in a similar timespan
exotic ibex
it took me longer
then again you do know the ins and outs
might be an hour first palythrough
i'll reserve judgement till i play it.
thats about what i expected for first palythrough
toxic wadi
inexperienced run is always gonna take longer
exotic ibex
but yeah if you can get through it in around 30 minutes than it'll be a sub 30 run eventually
yeah i forgot to factor that in
thanks for reminding me
exotic ibex
the fact that david knows the ins and outs
my brain is dull from all the practice runs
dusk is really draining for me to run
toxic wadi
ahh yea
gleaming berry
Dusk will totally be in AGDQ one day
I mean if ROTT 2013 can be in SGDQ
ANYTHING CAN
exotic ibex
holy shit rott was there?
toxic wadi
hell yea
vague egret
toxic wadi
oh fuck i just clicked onto one of the platforming sections
i think those were the reason why i didnt beat the game lol
mild ginkgo
Propjumping is for cowards
exotic ibex
i would suggest you pin that but david likes it so that would be rude
thorn trout
@exotic ibex it sounds like the game is short but a first time playthrough will take a lot longer.
thorn trout
heh
toxic wadi
hey dude nobody owes u a key. cool it buster

I've dougie-dunn-did-it.
I haven't used any service like this since IRC, so I'm guessing I'm on the discord page for the W.I.P. fps Dusk, right?
Whelp, I guess nobody's here. I just was going to be one of "those guys" hoping to get a hold of a demo/pre-alpha copy just to try it out. Really excited to buy it the second it's released.
atomic egret
hey, sorry for late reply, but yeah this is the discord channel for DUSK.
in regards to your question about being one of "those guys"

"I want a key to (insert game here). How can I get one?"
Keys are currently being posted at random intervals (usually about once a day) with whoever being able to redeem the key the fastest getting access. This is the only way to currently get access to the pre alphas and other free stuff. Key beggers will be ignored so dont bother asking.

@crimson folio sorry dude its late for many timezones, but also i was busy hating myself, welcome aboard!
atomic egret
go away scott I already did your job for you
mild ginkgo
my job isnt to be a door greeter gilby
atomic egret
your job is to moderate shit
mild ginkgo
thats what i do
atomic egret
moderation includes moderating new members and greeting them
mild ginkgo
he didnt say anything to be moderated
just made his lurker status known
and then a helpful member of our community pointed him to some great information
here, ill give you a gold star
atomic egret
it better not be a shitty ms paint "you tried" meme
atomic egret
that's even more disappointing
mild ginkgo

You know, I was worried that my Squirrel binding was doing something untidy
but after looking at KeraLua (the native binding NLua uses)
it's actually pretty good
tfw
mild ginkgo
excited to see the end results π
prisma halo
@mild ginkgo it's not "done" but it's pretty much at the point where it can be used
I just haven't added the Garbage Collector and Debug Interface functions to the Squirrel class, but they can still be used under Squirrel.Unmanaged.*
I also need to clean up a few rarely used Squirrel things
x86 build of the REPL, for testing

20 bucks for DUSK?
That's a pretty hefty approximated price.
crystal vessel
lol how is that even close to hefty
prisma halo
I think he was being sarcastic
crystal vessel
Hard to tell in this chat sometimes
atomic egret
I sure hope he was being sarcastic

It's insane to me it's that expensive

I'll be able to buy FIVE copies of dusk for the price of one copy of prey
exotic ibex
i have no idea how you got 2:04
absolutely none
maybe my routing is bad but this shit isnt going under 3 minutes
exotic ibex
did you round them up and nuke em at any point?
atomic egret
nope
atomic egret
use gas cans whenever you can tho
exotic ibex
the only moments where i can use gas cans to save time would only save like
3-5 seconds
at most
you have a screenshot of it, right?
atomic egret
yeah
atomic egret

exotic ibex
thats not 100% tho
atomic egret
I know
crystal vessel
something weird I'm seeing
atomic egret
that's why I don't officially count it
exotic ibex
soo whats the current 100% record?
its how the iamge is pixelated
the 2 looks like a 3
atomic egret
and why it says "Dumb idiot with no world records" on my steam profile
crystal vessel
Fuckin weird how it does that
exotic ibex
my best time is 3:34
atomic egret
nobody's really tried 100% yet
