looking really good man :)
slender knoll
Well keep at it! I really liked the earlier one that run on... what? blender or something?
viscid sandal
It was blender yes
slender knoll
I remember you said you were also going to rework the levels a bit
viscid sandal
"a bit"
viscid sandal
level 3-6 have been completely remade and level 5 6 and S have enitrely redone layouts
levels 1 and 2 just had some areas tweaked
desert notch
its only natural with some of the constraints of blender game engine being lifted that some things would have to be redesigned, like enemy placement for example, there are tons more now
viscid sandal
Yes
desert notch
from what i can see at least
slender knoll
oh yeah blender couldnt handle that many enemies was it?
viscid sandal
Nah in level 1 the enemy placements are the same but the number will get substantially larger as the chapters progress we're also doing a more old school difficulty scaling so harder difficulties will also change the placement and increase the quantity of enemies.
@slender knoll 18 at most sometimes a max of 8-12
depended on the level
viscid sandal
the restrictions got tighter and tighter the further I got into development and just in general the game was very unstable, it had not become an uncommmon occurrence for the game to just stop launching for some people, even with reinstalls
desert notch
yeah personally im impressed you got as far as you did with blender game engine
dont think ive seen anything as complex as what you had put together in it was
viscid sandal
Yeah, tbh I think there may have been 1 or 2 more involved games made on the engine but the fact i strung out as much as I did is a miracle.
Would still be using it if it weren't for a bud of mine.
desert notch
glad to see the move from blender to unity wasn't that bad, in my opinions unity is just too good of an engine to pass up anymore
slender knoll
Good thing you decided to do the switch. That engine doesnt seem like something that would be of any use in the long run
trim jungle
my uncle is one of the guys who founded unity
desert notch
especially not since its deprecation
slender knoll
@trim jungle ask him if it's their fault or the dev's fault that like only two games manage to nail edge detection or whatever you call it
trim jungle
he's a very distant relative
slender knoll
haha
trim jungle
and I don't think he's working on it anymore
slender knoll
yea might be good if you didnt ask him questions like that
trim jungle
he just sits around and is rich these days
desert notch
im sure theres a lot more than two unity games that deal with edge detection properly lol
thats down to how people use the engine, not how unity is made
slender knoll
I'm not that well versed in this but two games come to my mind. Deadcore and Clustertruck. At high speeds in both games feel like it's very uncertain if the game mechanics react as they are supposed to be. Then again if you look at dusk it does it just as it's supposed to. fairly obvious it's the dev not the platform they are using
ofc those two might not be the best examples of unity games
viscid sandal
Ah,
desert notch
yeah it's entirely down to the method of grounded check they are utilizing, there are many different ways to do it and not every way is suitable for the type of gameplay it is meant to be for
slender knoll
all these unity "speedrun" games have left me unpleased. Clustertruck came close but it still feels like junk
viscid sandal
Games movement and general mechanics function perfectly well at high speeds. There's little to no jank, even with bhopping
desert notch
yeah dusk is done right, and its done right with the unity character controller which is a bit crazy to me that david got it to behave so well haha
viscid sandal
And it's quake 1 bhopping that requires an ounce of skill to pull off assuming you have tap enabled and not hold
desert notch
ive never played clustertruck, what goes wrong with the way the movement is handled at high speeds? cant jump when on the trucks? weird momentum feeling stuff?
slender knoll
it feels like as if momentum doesn't properly stop
viscid sandal
@slender knoll nope
slender knoll
good!
viscid sandal
It's very traditional q1
slender knoll
I dont know how to put it but
I enjoy effort based mobility more
as long as it's not insanely hideous to perform (Warsow)
desert notch
well if you are on a moving truck obviously you would be moving at the momentum of the truck, but the moment you jump you start with the trucks momentum and (should) slowly get it reduced by wind resistance
desert notch
i guess i couldnt put that very well without having played it myself
slender knoll
it feels as if you fall off the truck because the momentum doesnt stop
and instead it lets go to towards the slope
viscid sandal
You can make it easier by enabling hold in the options menu which means you'll auto jump when holding the spacebar and you don't have to time it in viscerafest. Tradeoff will be you can reach higher speeds with tap.
slender knoll
whereas you'd expect that if you are jumping from truck to truck you would have some friction
desert notch
well even when you land on a moving object you still have your own inherit velocity, not to say it doesn't work as expected but it sounds some what in line with what you could expect in reality
desert notch
that said it could probably benefit from a more non realistic velocity system where its much more rigid, like landing on a truck very quickly brings your self momentum down to 0 while still moving at the truck speed
slender knoll
the game felt like there was no friction tbh
as if the trucks were covered in wet soap
desert notch
friction can be a tricky thing to get right in unity
viscid sandal
But yeah basically the movement is like if you blended blood or turok 2's air control with quake 1 bhopping. It feels really good right now and will likely get even more polished down the line. Will be interesting how it coincides with the rocket jumping esque mechanic in chapter 2
desert notch
when you are moving you want 0 friction or else you get stuck on things that do have friction, like walls
desert notch
i like to reduce friction to 0 when there is player input and when there is no player input, put the friction back up to 1 unless in the air and dampen the player velocity, but in a game like cluster truck setting the player velocity back to 0 on no input wouldnt be very good
viscid sandal
Yeah Its fun and makes platforming not aweful
desert notch
thats lookin like some fun movement
how the bhopping being handled, the good ole complex mathy way or is it a simpler method like adding velocity on mouse turning at certain degrees?
viscid sandal
and an unreal style dash as well
I'll have to ask
Alot of what i handled in that regard is the quantity of speed gained, buffer ranges, things of that nature, how the actual system functions I'd need to ask my bud.
I can tell you momentum is gained by hopping continuously in a single direction and turning with the mouse at the very least does not impact that speed negatively
crystal kraken
when will we see an alpha build of that 👀
viscid sandal
A beta will be released hopefully sometime before the summer hits, likely more so around spring time. There's still a significant chunk of content that needs to be built and added to unity, so its a lil ways off yet.
crystal kraken
oh ic
if you remember me name when that happens hmu
ill be still shitposting waiting for the Dusk SDK probably
viscid sandal
We have a discord if you wanted to join we regularly post stuff from bugs to just screenshots of progress.
crystal kraken
sounds like fun
desert notch
ah so its something like how dusk handles it, compounding jumps increases a hidden speed multiplier thats added ontop of the base movement speed
or at least sounds like that
minus the requirement to hold forward + strafe
viscid sandal
pretty much I believe
crystal kraken
its not really added, Dusk doesn't have the notion of momentum really
viscid sandal
and strafing also slows your movement
desert notch
also im interested in the discord for announcements if you could throw an invite my way :)
crystal kraken
the only momentum you can maintain in Dusk is vertical
its like, you just accelerate instantly towards where you're pointing your movement vector towards
desert notch
yeah, i just meant the basic implementation, its true that it looks like momentum + some form of momentum transference is happening on mouse move in this game instead
but i still think it applies about a movement multiplier thats addition to the base movement speed
crystal kraken
idk how david came about Dusk's movement, but despite how weird it is, it works perfectly
and feels really good to move
so physics can really go suck a dick
desert notch
after experimenting with multiple forms of bhopping it came a little naturally to me in the same way david ended up implementing his, it just feels really accessible and 'freely moving'
unique trellis
back hopping in hl2 
viscid sandal
@desert notch ooooh the more "enemies" you're seeing are the scientists which we just added, they're basically the games equivalent of standard health pickups, they don't attack you they just die so you can eat their hearts.
desert notch
wow that is a wonderfully unique concept for a health pack type entity
viscid sandal
I didn't want to use standard health packs but I did want a slightly effort free method of getting health as the only other way is to gib enemies.
desert notch
does that mean you have to chase down your health packs? haha
viscid sandal
nah not for these guys, they'll just act mildly annoyed.
desert notch
ah, still sounds very cool
viscid sandal
They're going to have a few randomized voice lines.
again they're meant to be kind of effort free because the rest you get from combat or bloated flesh which will be mostly in secrets.
near mortar
I hope there's an ammo-free way to gib 'em
I don't recall seeing in all the footage you've posted a melee but I have to imagine there is one
viscid sandal
@near mortar pressing f does a quick melee that deals 60 damage gibbing the first 3 enemies you encounter at full health instantly. Its not as overpowered as it sounds but it is a tool that remains useful throughout.
near mortar
That sounds like a great melee for the way you have the game set up, props on that one
viscid sandal
Thanks.
robust ridge
So, i've heard that viscerafest is now being remade on unity? Cool.
how are you dealing with the transition? (moving from your previous engine to unity)
viscid sandal
@robust ridge it's going well for the most part, a lot of it is just porting existing assets into unity and rebuilding their functionality. I'm more the polishing guy in that regard though. A bulk of the porting process is being handled by my bud fireplant whilst I polish existing elements and continue to remake existing levels and make new content as well as new design elements and mechanical additions to make use of the room for improvement unity allows us over blender as well as help to distinguish the game more so from other shooters of this sub-genre.

is it actual bhop
keen bear
right now my biggest gameplay feedback is that the enemies are very tiny
trim jungle
like in hl1
keen bear
its not hl1 no
trim jungle
smh
dusky tinsel
it was supposed to have tribes style skiing
but i didnt have time to make that
so i just slapped on simple "bhop"
keen bear
yeah, i think that you encourage the player to be moving fast and not stopping, so the skinny tiny dudes are a bit hard to hit, it would help if maybe the shotgun had a lot more spread
feels like you have to be directly aiming at them to hit them with the sg
dusky tinsel
so bigger enemies, got it
keen bear
obviously enemy variety would be nice
dusky tinsel
i was so unsure about my level design
keen bear
but thats a lot of work
dusky tinsel
yes i wanna add lot more enemies to the full version
keen bear
and , i dont want to be overly critical given how its obviously very early
but weapon feedback will need some iteration
dusky tinsel
ya i've gotten that critique before 😄
trim jungle
also make the gun explosions and particles and stuff look like actual fireworks that'd be sick
dusky tinsel
but dude thank you so much
keen bear
and i think working the claws into something more viable could be fun!
perhaps a wide swipe to hit multiple dudes with, or some form of pounce/lock on
right now it feels like suicide to use them

right now i think my favorite weapon feedback wise is the laser rifle thing

i like the disk gun too! close second

NBlood: A port created using reverse engineered machine code from the final game, using EDuke32 as a base point in order to inherit all of its bugfixes to the Build engine (this does not imply any relation to Duke3D, EDuke32 is still Build, Duke3D game-specific code is separate)
BloodEX: Port running on its own engine (Kex), based on reverse engineered machine code from the final game
BloodGDX: Java-based port based on leaked alpha code, filling in the gaps with reverse engineered machine code from the final game
BloodCM/BloodTC: Not a port. Rather, a manual recreation in the form of a standalone Duke3D mod largely done through guesstimation, same author as BloodGDX
For those not in the know
NBlood's currently my port of choice because it's so far the most accurate and outperforms BloodGDX
Interested in trying BloodEX when it releases though, to see what modding options it offers

@unique trellis game
viscid sandal
nowhere currently
Plan is to launch on steam, gamejolt, gog, and itch.io when it's complete.
unique trellis
wow!
viscid sandal
@unique trellis first chapter will be free and whilst the full game doesn't currently have a final price point it will likely be between 10-15$ US
near mortar
Shareware version style
viscid sandal
Indeed. Chapter 1 is also the shortest though. It has 5 main levels, a boss level and a bonus level, though the shareware version will also have the introductory stage which is seperate from the other chapters. Whilst it's not done yet chapter 1 will likely be 40-50 mins for a first timer.

The shareware will also be out prior to the full launch so its also going to be nice for beta testing.
I mean the old one was to and I got alot of great feedback on it but that was when it was running in blender and before I decided to redo most of chapter 1 so

I'll be sure to check it out! I heard some of the music and it sounds pretty sick

@pine carbon actually that reminds me how did you drag stephen weyte into dusk?
pine carbon
Dave emailed him
pine carbon
but then there was months of union stuff involved to actually make something happen
viscid sandal
@dusky trench no but in all seriousness whilst the game is much more free flowing and you're much more mobile than you ever were in quake especially later on the combat has a hard focus on some of quakes ideologies more so than dooms. Best way I can describe the combat is its like if quake and the build engine trinities combat had a baby.
unique trellis
@viscid sandal So the shareware will give you less weapons? Is that game 2.5 or 3D?
And you worked on your project alone?
viscid sandal
@unique trellis the game is running in a fully 3d engine and does utilize models where necessary but the enemies, weapons and props are predominately 2d sprites.
I was working on it alone (kind of) but a bud of mine recently joined development.
The shareware build will contain 6 of the 12 weapons one of which you can only find in a secret and won't get as a standard weapon in the open until chapter 2.
outer eagle
Appreciate going with a shareware model
Still got plenty of mates still iffy on trying out DUSK and AE
unique trellis
So your bud did what with your development?
outer eagle
Hopefully they'll give Viscerafest a go
viscid sandal
The game was running in blender but blender is trash and having never used unity before I needed his help porting to a new engine
unique trellis
Hmm... If it's a 3D engine, then what engine are you using for that game?
wraith beacon
The decision to cut BGE in 2.8 was a good decision.
unique trellis
I have never heard of Blender Game Engine before.
viscid sandal
It was very poorly optimized and rather buggy
unique trellis
I know Game Maker, Unity, and Unreal Engine.
wraith beacon
It's the game engine component of the 3D modelling Package Blender.
BGE is never used because to be blunt, it's garbage.
viscid sandal
I mean the game struggled to maintain 100 fps with anything more than 18 enemies in a level at most the current unity build.... Well uh
unique trellis
410 fps
that's what I wished for my laptop
when playing 3D game that's not Quake
viscid sandal
Lel
unique trellis
Wait, so you did the programming, level design, art, and the music of the game?
viscid sandal
But yeah the weapons in chapter 1 include the skull crusher pistol, shredder dual assault rifles, bunker buster double-barreled shotgun, pung cannon, Quad shotgun, plague rifle, and eviscerator gattling gun.
@unique trellis not the music
That why I said kinda
viscid sandal
No no. You asked if I was working on it alone and I said I was at one point kind of. The only thing k wasn't doing was the music which was done by my composer Michael markie. Fireplant is the guy helping me with the unity build.
@unique trellis have you heard of quake champions doom edition?
unique trellis
yep
viscid sandal
He composed the music for that https://youtu.be/C-OF5bs2YLk
viscid sandal
Yup
unique trellis
so who did the sound design? you did?
viscid sandal
Other than that I've also hired a British voice actor named Janna polzin to provide the dialogue for Caroline the main character and sarakpn did the promo art and me and her are working on short cutscenes rn together.
@unique trellis I was doing it all but my sound effects didn't really gell well with the music so markie is redoing most of the sounds.
unique trellis
That's awesome
viscid sandal
Indeed
unique trellis
You did the art?
unique trellis
Wow! What software did you use for the art and the animations? Looks so cool!
I have lots of ideas for games but I don't know how to make one.
viscid sandal
I use an app called piskel for the sprite work and texturing, and I use blender for modeling the levels and 3d props
unique trellis
Cool
viscid sandal
It's not an easy thing to break into that's for sure
unique trellis
I have written lots of ideas for game since I was in middle school and I still keep it in my folder. Sometimes I edit those old ideas because there are lots of dumb and nonsense writings that I have written in the past.

There are no stock sounds used.
Only noises that I made.
I have never taken any sound courses.
eternal nacelle
oookaay
wraith beacon
They sound pretty good for something that doesn't use any stock sounds but, I do feel they'd get a bit grating after a while and the SMG noise seems a bit too loud.
queen comet
I'm gonna sound mean but I do not see any way you could do that with your mouth and Audacity without some serious plugins I've never heard of
eternal nacelle
Yeah they very much just sound like stock sounds
queen comet
Same
eternal nacelle
The fact that you're vague on exactly what you did makes things even more suspicious
In fact if you could actually talk about the method of how you make these that would be great
Can't have someone just posting stock gunshot sounds in here claiming that they made it
wraith beacon
Good point.
delicate vale
There's only one possibility - his mouth is a gun
eternal nacelle

queen comet

Ok well if you could show us an example of the process I'd be more inclined to believe you
unique trellis
I layered all the sound that I recorded, then adjust it by using pitch, speed, classic filter, equalization, and amplifier.
Original sound
First edited version
The original file format was m4a
recorded from iPhone 5s
Most recent version

It's not particularly hard to make a mouth noise sound like a gunshot if you know what a gunshot sounds like
near mortar
Here's a real crap one I made just to prove I could do it with just base audacity and my mouth
Know what you're doing and how a gun sounds, or at least how to do a good video game gun sound, and you could probably easily make an entire arsenal's sounds with just your mouth and audacity, though you could also definitely improvise some better alternatives for crap like reload sounds and such
wraith beacon
Alrighty.
unique trellis
Early steps (I deleted some of the earlier steps for my "beretta 92fs.wav because I didn't think that you guys would think that my sound is like mixed from stock sounds).
SMG.
brazen copper
I believed you if that counts for anything lol
unique trellis
And I don't have money to buy stock sounds.
Not the best quality because I have never taken any sound course. I edited sounds with tips I learned online and experiments with Audacity.
brazen copper
You using the stock reverb plugin?
brazen copper
Pretty much everything under "effects"
unique trellis
No.
sharp birch
damn, game devs gonna need to step up their game with this
force everyone to use their mouths to make gun sfx
unique trellis
I don't recommend that. This is just an experiment.
brazen copper
Oh, I see how you're doing the "reverb" now
unique trellis
Some of you guys may think that I ripped sounds from hickok45's videos or Black Ops 2 because of that reverb.
sharp birch
as much as I like BO2, it doesn't have that MUCH reverb into it
unique trellis
I used no reverb. I used "Speed", "Fade in", and "Fade out" for the tails.
And even "Pitch".
brazen copper
Yeah, the first proof pic you posted tipped me towards that. I just assumed you put some stock reverb on it as well.
unique trellis
I have never seen any stock reverb
This is an original work, so I don't use stock sounds.
Editing sounds from noises that I made with my mouth is what i have been trying to do for a long time, but failed multiple time.
Here is an example of my work that I used some free recorded gun sounds (tail) and sounds ripped from YouTube channel's videos (Forgotten Weapons and FPSRussia).
How I made is difficult to explain.
I took sounds of SCAR-H (FPSRussia), artillery (Forgotten Weapons), bolt rifle (free recorded gun sounds), and multiple sounds that I mixed with ripped sounds from YouTube videos (Forgotten Weapons) and failed (importing multiple sounds to improve my AK-47 sound). It is impossible to get my original AK-47 sound because it got screwed up when I tried to improve it or the pre-equalized versions got deleted to get replaced by the equalized version.
This AK-47 sound is used as a mod for CS 1.6.
I don't plan to upload the mod because I don't remember all of the sources that I used. I don't want to be called plagiarizing or stealing.
near mortar
He didn't mean a stock reverb audio file, he meant the stock reverb track effect that audacity gives you.
He thought you just used that instead of basically hand crafting a reverb effect out of multiple tracks like you did
unique trellis
I know. I said that I didn't use the "Reverb" effect. It sounds awful to use it. Like there's a shootout inside an office.
If you have Audacity, you can check that I did edit the gun sound. Note that the file is different from the screenshot because I deleted all the tracks for full-auto firing sounds.

@near mortar originally caroline did have a glass eye, but at some point during development who and what caroline was changed drastically along with the the entire plot of viscerafest which is why the title of "QUARANTINED" Was dropped, her having 1 eye no longer really made any sense.
near mortar
So that facial scarring is still relevant but it has done nothing to her eye then
viscid sandal
pretty much
near mortar
It just so happens to be on the same side as her naturally red eye
viscid sandal
yup,
I thought it might be more fun art wise to give her multi colored eye's, its not something I see very often, and its more interesting and fun.
Her eye colors weren't exactly natural human colors anyways so.
near mortar
It's more common than you think, just not typically in first person shooters and crap
It's more anime bullcrap and 12 year old deviantart OCs
viscid sandal
Neither of which are things I tend to indulge in so.
near mortar
Though your character is designed a lot better than most anime characters tend to be and obviously deviantart OCs are garbage in comparison to literally anything
