Various experiments, mainly quirky pixel art games. Former Junk Jack dev.

#

This game sucks, literally. A sandbox for now, where I experiment.

debugging physics in my golf stack game

runic path Mar 31, 2023, 7:36 PM

#

still debugging physics 😦

#

creating a game where you stack physics spheres wasn't the brightest idea..

#

lots of hacks, still unpredictable

#

Getting somewhere

#

Still a bit too hard

runic path Apr 1, 2023, 4:44 PM

#

Also day night cycle because why not

#

Might be useful in other projects

This looks like a really stressful mobile game and I am so here to support it until release

runic path Apr 2, 2023, 9:23 PM

#

oh, thanks! yes. it is made to be absolutely frustrating.

#

if anyone wants to follow me i have opened a discord server. i do many things and i'm trying to gather some humans to support my absolutely random creations

#

i'm not sure where to blog my updates

runic path Apr 2, 2023, 9:46 PM

#

Still tweaking physics. I'm trying to make it predictable, hard but precise.

#

I'm encountering a problem where the physics will get wonky on low energy mode on iOS, where webkit makes the game run at 30fps. oh well

#

I'll add some stars now.

#

finally managed to control physics event individually on each ball! that's good progress.

#

when the ball upper and lower dots connect i get the relative ball and apply a rotational brake on it, so it can stack easily

#

I would like to do a "public test", where i give you a live link and you test the game in your browser. If anyone interested please let me know. I'm gathering helpful people on my Discord, for this and future experiments. I guarantee quirkiness.

#

I guess that's an easy way to make new highscores

runic path Apr 3, 2023, 3:24 PM

#

Physics are good! I’m soooo happy

#

alternate feathers and wings instead of fingers

#

trying ideaas

runic path Apr 4, 2023, 10:05 AM

#

Anyone here? Do you think it is better to pursue with fingers or wings?

#

Boh will be customizable with different skins

runic path Apr 5, 2023, 1:08 AM

#

Added some animations and eyes to the new flying ball thing. Unsure though if I’ll keep it or split it to another fame variation .

runic path Apr 6, 2023, 11:40 PM

#

water physics!

#

trail ember Apr 7, 2023, 2:44 AM

#

I need this in my life

#

my developer forgot to add water physics so now I walk on it like fucking jesus christ

runic path Apr 7, 2023, 1:27 PM

#

Adding some splashes, bubbles, fish, debris, algae
