Most of those can be explained in like, a few words. like don't get me wrong they all have retarded names and it all looks very intimidating but it's not actually all that complicated.

FWIW most people use Heat as a lovely DP/heal red life on knockdown in Crescent and as a RC in Full. Blood Heat is almost never used, and most of the time if someone is in Max in Crescent they either use it for damage in their combos or use it to burst. Half moon just automatically bursts and you have no control over it (but the burst isn't really punishable). A lot of Arc Drives are not useful and even the useful ones tend to be pretty situational. AAD/Last Arc/anything with Blood Heat is ridiculously situational and basically makes no difference on the game besides being able to troll your opponent. Like one of the most practical AADs is Satsuki's because it's unblockable, unjumpable, can be comboed into from anything, and does like 3000 unscaled damage no matter how late it is in a combo, and I've only seen it in a real match once ever since I've been keeping up with the game when it was MBAC.

punk rebel ecks posted:I watched your long play of the game. While it isn't the worst looking game in the world, visually its a mess. For example it took me three minutes in real time before I could tell that their were sprite characters that were holding shields and and a weapon. Let that sink in for a second, the prime character aesthetic in the game "2D character sprites with 3D enviornments" wasn't just lost in translation, but immediately unknown. You see, it creates mixup opportunities. When you close in on your opponent, they have to make several hard reads: Which way are they facing? Which way am I facing? Which character am I? Why isn't my character made of voxels like everything around him seems to be?

There's nothing special about the geometry of chins. I mean, unless everyone has pointy butts, shoulders, etc. too. That might be a little suspicious.

In Training posted:In my limited experience it seems like everybody has a meter less combo that does 35 to 50% which is cool. Everything is dangerous LB2 is just a high damage game across the board, to the point where combo damage has to be hardcapped at something like 75% Does the PS4 release support PS3 sticks? I assume the answer is no, but I can always hope.

anothergod posted:Posting this here and in the Making Games Megathread. We're doing some promotion before Combo Breaker this weekend. Here are some download keys. If you nab one please get at us with your impressions.  Right now the sprites are really dark, tiny, washed out and the items float weirdly around them. The end result is that you can't really see your character, and that's bad in a game where you will have four people running around on the same screen trying to hit each other. Try some contrasting colors and fix the lighting on the sprites. Also that coin thing at the end of a round is dumb. Here is my lovely mspaint attempt to show you what I am talking about.

Ackkk. As far as lighting goes try better graphics settings? I never really tried to play anything lower than fantastic. Wrt the floating items did you play against anyone? I got some people from the select button forum to twitch stream and they loved it. I think one guy was pretty gung ho about the game and the rest got used to it. Edit: alright, cool, I tried!

If it helps I work in games and this attitude is one of the key reasons why indie startups doing generic local multiplayer games last approximately a year and a half and about 3 weeks after they actually release, PR is incredibly important and completely dependent on word of mouth so having a dismissive attitude at any point is basically setting fire to your chances of surviving in a ridiculously competitive space (notably because these games aren't exactly hard to make). You can't pick and choose, you need to have an outstanding USP, you need to have excellent public relations/promotion/friendliness and you need a commitment to quality because you're going to fail to achieve the level you think you're going to achieve for a variety of reasons (everyone does). You can pass it off as a unique situation where you get to ignore everything because goons, but they're just voicing things people who will immediately dismiss your game would say if they weren't too busy not caring. Get it together man, if this is your one big shot at indie stardom, do it properly.

also if you're releasing on steam as your only platform then you're competing with literally 10000 other games at prety much every budget and price point imaginable. even in the niche market of 4 player local games, there's glitchrunners, helldivers, magicka, speedrunners, and lethal league off the top of my head. why would someone buy your poo poo-looking game that you refuse to improve in any way over those other games that are actually decent and were made by people with some degree of competence in what they're doing.

Get it together man, if this is your one big shot at indie stardom, do it properly. Thanks for this. I totally appreciate your perspective. I'm not really worried bc the game is like a year out from being done done and there are going to be some massive changes soon. We're going to hit as many tournaments as we can and get our game out to as many people as we can. And, tbh, the local competitive multiplayer is not going to be our main salespoint - it just happened to be real fun. Chase the fun ya know? If ya'll don't ban me for being annoying I'll be posting about our dev progress (mostly in the other thread) and hopefully that'll be fun, too. Btw, I get that really genuinely playing a game is a thing the takes effort and like who the gently caress am I to ask randoz for effort. It's more Smash or Towerfall than a traditional fightman, so I get that you wouldn't like it. I also get that it's weird and different and it breaks a lot of video game rules so, like, whatever I *get* that you guys don't like it. I'm just trying to make it easier if you want to try to like it, ya know? I dunno if you're serious about dhamster's approach to game criticism - I mean, fucker played it on the worst graphic settings and was like, "LOL MSPaint Art guyzzz" - like if you want to treat that like "real criticism" that's your choice. My best argument that our game is in fact pretty not poo poo is "please play our game". I was nice about it initially because I had hoped someone else played it and was like, "I dunno guys, maybe he's onto something?" But between Midwest Gaming Classic, two local bar events, and shooting a copy to Avalanche NYC and them loving it t's like... I'm fairly confident about a lot of the game's weaknesses and strengths. We found something cool and if you wanna play it, go ahead. If you don't, go ahead and do that. We got Combo Breaker and two more local events and this thing is going to grow and develop. Tbh I'm kinda pissed that someone took a DL key and didn't DL it, but like, I'm the idiot who gave the keys out for free. I'll just console myself by thinking that dude wouldn't have bought it anyways so like there's that. My masochism is making me quote the remaining three games so take'em or leave'em anothergod posted:Posting this here and in the Making Games Megathread.
