I liked this tool with a nice design, the color selection works well, the presence of layers is also a useful thing. I was pleased with the small file size.
But there are still many mistakes and shortcomings - it is impossible to change the background color, the menu by pressing the MRB does not always correspond to the context, the cancellation of the last action does not work.
There are no "download" or "run" buttons. And the topic is very interesting. I write almost everything I write in basic, only it's VB6. My works for this and the previous contests are written on it.
Potentially, I would be interested in a compiler for new platforms.
Somewhere in the Discord, this was discussed in more detail, it's hard to find now, but I remember that I made such a conclusion then, and in my game, in addition to controlling with combinations of buttons, I provided an option with independent buttons. Perhaps this is not very reliable because I use automatic translation in the browser.
At the expense of the interest of learning to drive a car - I understand the physical principle, but it is counterintuitive to press the button on the right to turn left. All the reflexes of an old gamer rebel against this :)
Beautiful and clear 3D, good sound, but not intuitive controls that violate the rules of the competition - simultaneous pressing of several keys. But the controls could have been done without violations and clearer:
A very serious game, beautifully voiced and drawn. An interesting adventure.
I noticed one bug - if at the beginning you go to the left over the edge of the screen, the player will not return from there, but the game will continue without him.
I haven't come up with an interesting idea for a game yet, but I've written a simple sequencer for writing music. I suggest everyone who wants to use it.
There is Load, Save and Export to a WAV file.
Controls:
Left mouse button - add note
Right mouse button - delete note
Middle mouse button - change duration
I upload to a third-party file hosting service because this is not a game.
1. I see a lot of uncleaned spam in the community. I hope that this is not a sign that the contest has been abandoned?
2. Will the processing of simultaneous keystrokes, for example, arrows - for movement, arrows with Ctrl pressed - for action, be a disadvantage? Or was it not done this way on Nokia, is it better to reserve 4 buttons for movement and 4 other buttons for action?
When trying to run in Win7-64 complains about the CreateFile 2 function in KERNEL32.DLL . In Win10-64 it starts, but it freezes for 3-4 seconds during the countdown.
Unfortunately, I cannot appreciate this seemingly very interesting project.
I couldn't cope with the voting box on my Windows 7-64 computer, I tried it on another computer where Windows 10-64 - the voting box also collapses. And now I tried it on an old computer with Windows XP-32 - and everything worked!
I see that there are 82 entries in the jam at the moment, but there are only 45 of them on the page with the entries, including my game is not visible: https://mikletuapse.itch.io/aos-6-wt
Tell me about the copyright issue. I have my own resources in the game, except for two models of cars that are downloaded from free sources, these are BMW and Audi cars. The models are recognizable. Wouldn't it be a violation to use the very words "BMW" and "Audi" in the game menu?
This program uses brightness equalization of different parts of the original image, otherwise dark and light areas will not fit well. This alignment has a radius (the same one), if it is greatly reduced, the image becomes flatter.
At the expense of cutting off excess areas is a good idea, it remains to figure out how to make it as simple as possible for the user, I do not turn the program into a new Photoshop.
