I liked the more methodical approach to gameplay in this one. I could see this being a really interesting strategy game if movement were incorporated and more units were involved. I liked how there were two guns for each mech to use that were independently controlled. The ability to scroll forward and backward in time to see where the turret position would be at that point was nifty too.
The UI was a bit cluttered and hard to read though -- I'd suggest using arrows rather than yaw/pitch to aim the turret/mech body. Also, it was hard to see where a bullet was going to impact. Clarifying that a bit more would really help make it easier to pick up.
Definitely a cool concept though, and the background music was a great choice. Felt like I was making tough strategic decisions in the middle of a battle. Good luck with future development. I'll be interested to see where it goes :)
Thanks! Yeah I realized very quickly that the UI was not good enough as every single person I've watched play it for the first time did not understand what was going on haha. Also most non-gamedev people or even most non-3D gamedev people are not familiar with pitch and yaw.
During my remake I'm starting with infantry and slowly building up from there. These mechs and their weapons are intended to be anti-vehicle units so it was a bit bizarre pivoting the jam project into a wave based survival game where you shoot infantry.
My friends made the music they are very talented.
Oh no they got me with the rockets! I would love to see more strategy games as entries - very unique amongst the submissions. Thanks for uploading this
Really unique controls, I can't wait to see the progress of this project. Think you have definitely achieved something really special here with more work. I'll definitely join your sub-reddit!
