Terrier Tennis Completed!

https://cedarcatstudios.itch.io/terrier-tennis

Summary

I'm excited to have finished Terrier Tennis before the deadline I set for myself! Putting this game together was a lot of fun and I learned more than I would have thought. While there are still many things I would like to improve in this game, I felt it was time for me to upload the build and enjoy completing the game. I hope you find some enjoyment from the game, and I can't wait to get started on my next project in the coming weeks. It would be great if you would be able to play the game and let me know your feedback so I can improve when going to my next projects.

Things I Like:

  • The player movement and aiming
  • The title card and opponent select menu
  • The scene transitions 
  • The music
  • The vector art throughout the game
  • The code (I did a purposeful job to spend time working on making elegant code)

Things I Don't Like:

  • The frame rate (the build frame rate in the matches is sub par and I just don't want to spend more time tweaking performance)
  • The opponent animations are quite harsh and limited
  • The sound effects could have been greatly improved
  • Limited to desktop html build (I would have liked to do a mobile build)

Conclusion

Regardless of the features I like and don't like, I learned a lot making this game and that is all I can ask for during this process. I can't wait for the next project, and I hope you are able to play my game and find some enjoyment from it. Thank you for watching my progress over the last month. I hope you stay tuned for my next games!

I ended up fixing the poor frame rate by moving the build off of WebGL/HTML5. For some reason this build had quite unplayable frame rate and the only way to fix it in this time was to move the build to PC/Linux/Mac. I wish I would have been able to make it playable in browser so it would be more accessible, but I would rather allow people to enjoy it rather than be frustrated with a poor build. 

Maybe in my next game I can work more on performance tweaking so this doesn't happen. Regardless I hope you enjoy!
