Incredible. I did remember there were moments in Fallen Aces where there was Verticality, and having played Doom 2, its really apparent how 2.5D it actually is
next oyster
All the vertical parts where 3d sectors, and were a nightmare to make, example being the destroyed building you can hop on in the alleyway
One big thing we want to have is being able to enter Malone's office by getting to the roof and breaking the skylight
thin walrus
that would be so cool
so by loading zones you mean you will be able to enter the nightclub without a loading screen?
next oyster
Yeah it'll just be one seamless building.
fair aurora
that was a limitation of using doombuilder
warped vector
You guys used Doombuilder for the demo?
next oyster
Yeah, for the map wads
warped vector
Impressive
spice gorge
That sounds really cool! Looking forward to see what you can do with it.
leaden sable
Wait, Fallen Aces is a Unity game, right?
So you are making Doom-builder -like editor for custom levels?
leaden sable
Yeah, for the map wads
Did you use fucking doom wad format in a unity engine or did I misunderstood?
thin walrus
fallen ace's engine is unity, but the current maps are made with doom builder
leaden sable
holy shit
you can do that?
vestal star
yeah, you can actually make a map with fallen aces assets in doombuilder and import it to the demo
very cool stuff
thin walrus
you use slade to export the textmap
leaden sable
is there like a custom parser that turns Doom wads into Unity objects or what?
thin walrus
idk how it works, but it works
leaden sable
New Blood just blows my mind
Like "yeah there is 5 minute demo, but you can freely load it with custom levels you can make in fucKING DOOM BUILDER"
what kind of dark magic is this
thin walrus
the game only uses 3D for environmental stuff, everything else is pretty much sprites
leaden sable
i mean im really impressed with the ability to supply Unity with doom wads and turn them into actual scenes
thin walrus
the game was originally done in gamemaker but idk if back then they also used wads lmao
pretty sure they did
warped vector
I did notice that the Fallen Aces demo didn't really had levels. It didn't had you going under platforms or bridges, you could draw the map in a paper sheet.
And there weren't different floors, because there was a loading screen between them.
However you could still jump over enemies, reach high ledges and climb rooftops, something you can't in a 2.5D game, but after playing Doom i became acutely aware that the Demo looked straight out of a 2.5D game
The Doom WADs explain everything

Yes, we parse doom maps in the demo
The game maker version has its own level editor
It's not the same as the new one we will ship with though

Correct. Plus we had to a take a year to start from scratch. Right now we are remaking the map editor so in the future it's faster and easier to create levels. Trust me, Jason and I work on the game every day. I try to show off progress each week to make sure fans know what we've been working on.

I've got a question.
Earlier you said that the game will release in Early Access with Episode 1, if I'm not mistaken. And after that, you would add Episode 2 and Episode 3.
So, is that plan still relevant, or now you will release the game only when it's fully done?
spice gorge
Yeah it will be early access with ep1
Oh, cool. Also, you said there will be seven levels in Episode 1.
So, the question is - in the demo, is that a full level, or just a half of it? Saving Delia will be in the same level?

woah,pretty long levels then

what diffuclty you on?
On harder difficulties stealth is a bit better to use, so you can thin out the herd a bit.
There are also some things ya can do to help yourself out, example if you kick an enemy to the ground you can kick them again and they will get knocked out, sprinting full speed into gangsters will also knock them down long enough for you to strike, dodging and jumping over enemies can also help you escape. You can use the kick to get enemies away from you if you get crowded.
Sometimes other things can work like kicking enemies into objects like pop machines or radio will electrocute them, you can also throw weapons at chandleirs to drop em enemies heads. The trolley can be used to squish a group of enemies if you are doing a lethal run.
Blocking is also effective, espically if carrying a melee weapon.
Keep in mind in the full game will have more things the player can use for crowds, grenades, weapons that have more reach, stuff that gives you more stamina, more enviormental hazards etc.
signal bluff
the old Doom tactic of bottlenecking a crowd in a doorway/narrow corridor also works
well, it works until you jump back because you ran out of stamina or your guard got broken
next oyster
But I'm always open to feedback on how to improve the combat since the game is a WIP.
Some of the gangsters will "wait" and strafe around you before going in for an attack.

pipe-wielders love doing this so they can flank you. Prioritize them in a big fight
if you've got someone on the ropes, don't let up on them--enemies will slowly regain their health if it's below 50%

Yeah sometimes ya gotta be aggressive.
If you finish off an enemy they'll usually drop some health for ya.

Actually, maybe some kind of traps would help with stealth part of the game? Bear traps, for example. Another silly idea - make wet floors on some levels, that work just like the banana peel?...
Also, ability to grab mooks(not like finisher, actually just grab stunned mooks and kick them in every direction) would be nice.
Chandleirs feel like they don't work. Maybe I'm just unlucky, but I couldn't hit anyone with it in several plays.
Anyway, I would really appreciate having more ways to knock some sense into the mooks - throw them off rooftops, into acid, etc, etc. Maybe more stealth takedowns?... Dunno.

theyll def be more vertically in future levels. We'll have traps like tripmines n stuff.

It was more common for them to be stashed in golf bags actually

Back in the day Newspapers were large as fuck, so you could just put a tommy gun and roll it on the paper and it would be properly hidden

It's more that Violin cases were used in gangster movies because they're more striking visually than a copy of USA Today on the screen.

jade quartz
Only at specific angles
next oyster
Oh by the way, I've noticed people tend to miss alot with charged attacks. Especially with the pipe. I wonder why that is?
dawn bluff
I believe it might be because Mike kinda moves forward while releasing his punch, making it easier to just kinda slide to your enemy's side when you're right against them
warped vector
Yeah, that did happened to me a lot sometimes
I had the enemy on my sighs and i had to either hit the punch or die
I missed, and the goon hit me back
I don't know if the forward punch is what does or if i just suck
dawn bluff
I believe it has to do with the way walking in to enemies is handeled
because it feels like npc's have this kind of cylindrical hitbox
making it easier to slide off to the side when tryna land a charged punch
plain quiver
It's a skill issue
dawn bluff
fair
but yea
the best way to describe it: it's kinda chess like, in the sense that when you're holding 2 pieces on the board and you make them collide by moving them towards each other, they're most likely to slide around instead of colliding head on. or well, they do collide head on but when you keep putting force on both of them they will eventually slide around each other
idk if that makes any sense but that's the best way I can illustrate it in words

I'll be honest with the style of brawler FPS gameplay that this game is, my hands honestly have a lot of trouble with the M+K setup of this game.

It's why I'm very thankful to the Dev team for Fallen Aces that the full release will have controller support.

Considering all the possible things that could be used as a weapon in this game, i'd suggest modding to add them in, but that would require drawing assets for it
Modders better be getting their art degree for modding this game

I mean right now only possible way for this is to replace it instead of the pistol (in terms of modding)
and to also have the glove take up the exact amount of space as the pistol drawing

I personally prefer to use heavy attacks and dodge a lot while waiting for them to charge up.
And occasionally use kicks to stun an enemy then combo with a heavy attack.
Also throwing props into a mook's face is a great way to open up as they're often stunned for a bit.
At least from my experience

I have a technical question for any dev who dabbles in sprites that move through 3D space. How do you make it walk towards you without the foot sinking under the ground?
If you want to make a 2D billboard in 3D space look like it's moving towards you, the foot needs to go below the bottom of the sprite. How can you even stop it from clipping? D:

found some weird bug with the banana peel
