Pickle Rick meets the Matrix! Pickle Riiiiiick!
Could not stop laughing at the irreverent commentary, capped off by the way the player pickle falls out of his boots when dying. This demonstrates, I think, how the entire game loop benefits when one game aspect (player audio commentary) really stands out.Haha definitely had a lot of the primary inspiration for the idea drawn from that episode of Rick and Morty!
I absolutely agree with you, if you can really capitalise on a good design of one element of game design then the response you will get to the game overall will be a lot more positive. That is feedback I often get for the games I make for game jams (I remember getting that feedback a lot for my very first Ludum Dare game 'Meltdown') - and I find that any kind of narration improves the overall user impression of the games polish no matter how much of a prototype it is.
Those sound effects were weird and awesome at the same time!
The only issue I had with this game was the cameras placement. It felt weird having the camera like that and also made the shooting more difficult. Other than that this was a great game!
Thanks Brody!
Yeah the camera can definitely use some improvement! I think the main issues though are with the actual hitscan shooting mechanics of the weapons. It doesn't work using screen space, it uses a raycast from the gun barrel in a straight line so it heavily relies on the rotation of the weapon in the characters hands - definitely something I wanted to improve but ran out of time for :(
The sound effects made me laugh. Did you record yourself making the pistol reload sound?
I felt the pistol bullet seed was a bit too slow.
Hahaha yeah man sure did! Made the majority of the audio with my mouth lol!
The pistol speed or shotgun bullet speed? The pistol is hitscan so it should be instant.
Is there a range on the pistol? It could be I was moving in and out of range.
Ah yeah it's probably the range on the pistol, I didn't get enough time to do functionality testing before submitting.
