Better and simpler times. Gets harder and harder to find time to goof around and have fun like that.

@NuttyDavid this post was a nice touch of reality, kinda odd it doesn't have more attention, surely we can't be the only ones to miss this

Thank you. I hope to be able to provide some more genuine moments in time in future clips/vids. I find TH-cam kind of just skips over my stuff sometimes. That's okay though because I can still have moments like the one I had with you in the comments. I'm not really looking for too much attention or anything. Just looking to make some connections out in the wild and share some wholesome/entertaining things.

General Discord I use for streaming: discord.gg/2Ax74fM9sc Specific Discord for Game Dev: discord.gg/jf2B264eqr Looking forward to hearing some bangers I am sure you make :)

I suppose that is pretty true

Yes sir. I'll be getting a bit organized soon to start hopefully having people help me out. Been really busy with out of town work lately (flying around in helicopters).

My pillows are always warm now after making this abomination of a cover photo. I also seem to have permanent diarrhea...

I will be getting back into the swing of things again. Took a lil break to just make this video and I have been slowly getting my life back together and have some new IRL ventures I am working on. Unreal Engine and Blender can be really rewarding but also time consuming. I remember spending lots of time to make simple objects. Unreal is powerful though. Your game sounds pretty cool. Whats the premise?

@@NuttyDavid Hahaha, oh buddy, I was stuck on a logging road today for 4 hours with a flat tire trying to get that crud off and it was insane... I have images of my work so far, do you have an email address?

I got an email address but usually i just share my discord server and allow people to DM me. Otherwise i keep getting signed up for thai midget massage sites for some reason...

Also getting stuck in the middle of nowhere blows. I fly in helicopters for work lots and getting grounded due to fog for hours is mind numbingly painful.

LFG!!!!

but then i love

always love with spl3xus💙

true. i need to het a cs2 comp gang.

They are growing

nuh ugh

The NA servers are unplayable for me still. I somehow get better pung in EU but im still at 100+

@@NuttyDavid the game can't handle invasion going on on a big map with that many people at all. I do get shitty connection sometimes even on duel servers but it's night and day between invasion and deathmatch servers.

Hell yeah. its a pretty simple engine to use at the moment. I want to add local co-op so we will see how that goes in the future. Day 17 will most likely be about combo-able attack chains once i finalize that. Im away from computer for the next two weeks. Hanging out with family as my lil bro is getting married.

I havent seen that one yet. I am curious if for more simple objects or destructibles if i can use something that can generate sheets for me. I would love an AI that could take my basic designs and sheets and build something HD. Thank you for Mordhau compliment. I never thought I was good at the time but i think i practiced enough to be above average. I want to modify my destructibles to degrade on hit. which i think will be swapping out sprites. Not sure how to trick the animation player to adjust frames unless i just have it play a new idle animation on hit. Im not even sure i need an animation player anymore so it might just be making diff sprites visible/invisible. I want my destructibles to sometimes drop a bomb or enemy on top of loot. So hitting and breaking destructibles will always have a risk reward feel to it for added fun and suspense. I played lots of diff fighting games on SNES and still own the cartdriges. Double Dragon, TMNT and Battletoads comes to mind. They are all amazing in their own ways. Also street fighter and Super Smash were lit.

Congrats on the 2nd book. I am thinking about righting a book on Emotions and how they change your perception of existance. Starting with the ones we consider negative and moving up in a heirarchy to the ones we might consider best. More of a book on philosophy. Cant wait to see your game on action.

Thank you. I am hoping to be deeper into finishing this game before i start having kids. Going to try to sprinkle some gaming vids in again.

Me waiting for laundry to finish

flash me big boi

Hell yeah brother

Its definitely sped me up a bunch already. My next video ill release it definitely led me a stary a little bit but had me in the right ballpark.

The most interesting thing i have been using it for is refactoring and using it as a search engine. It has been really good at pointing me in the right direction. The coolest part was I programmed a section and wasn't sure if i did things "right". AI spat out the same code i wrote. It seems to be good at just understanding the API and logically putting things together. I'm not sure its crowdsourcing programming like it does with artistic endeavors. But yeah i did get hit with a few dislikes on this vid compared to my others which are cleanly at 100% likes.

@@NuttyDavid ChatGPT has been really useful for giving me advice on my hobbies, particularly Nerf modifications and helping me find the right products for the job I need, and how to actually use those products effectively. When not stealing the job of creatives it's just Google on crack

Yeah I'm not a big fan of it stealing creative works of art to amalgamate some AI abomination. From a Google on crack perspective for information gathering it is such a time saver. Especially when it comes to some programming issues it being able to understand the logic behind publicly available API's and documentation and construct a general idea of how to solve your programming problem it seems to be good as well. I don't consider that a crime against humanity as much as the art stealing but rather just I have tasked a worker to go out and figure out how to put building blocks together for me based off information that is publicly available. In the same fashion that I would have to spend time doing anyway.

@@NuttyDavid I think the fact they stole most of their data and have the gall to demand $20 a month for the best version pisses me off, and it pisses me off more than I'll probably pay for it a soon as I can afford it

Why hello there

@@NuttyDavid i cant stop watching this shit XD

@@BugfishTM LMFAO

Thank you very much. The attack moving to closest enemy or "attackable" is genius big brain stuff. I will definitely work on attempting to add that. I want to have lots of destructible. I always loved just blowing up vases in Legend of Zelda. I am hoping to add some risk reward mechanics into my destructible objects. Sometimes they drop items/coins, other times enemies or bombs muahaha

Soon brother soon. Working through having things receive damage and playing hit and death animations for them. Need to make a training nut of myself. Definitely throwing your idea into the game though.

My wife now

Getting more and more developed... slowly but surely...

hell yeah brother. Going to put it in the first town i think

@@NuttyDavid Make sure it talks smack to you when you first walk into the training area... hehehe

you think dancing peanut or a lil hop and skip?

@@NuttyDavid google "smiling friends peanut jig"

​@@NuttyDavid look up smiling friends peanut jig

I have more questions than answers now hahaha

I have more questions than answers now hahaha

LFG

I made sure to toggle that off in the animation tree.

The training dummy for tutorial haha

Thank you!

I figured it out after this comment. I'll make a video tonight showcasing what the issue was.. as well as my next steps on designing attack interrupts and combos for some moves.

It can be really hard to line fight with a team in this game. Overheads, underhands and stabs help.

We always need annoying idea guy <3

Down bad caught in 4k

@@NuttyDavid ...

@@NuttyDavid I was just kidding

I have been reading more and more posts online about using AI to get some psuedo code that can be easily cleaned up to accomplish what you ask. I think in this case I'm not even sure what questions to ask. I'm trying to create a stacked animation I think but doing something a little goofy that I think most people wouldn't recommend. Lots of the guides I have watched seem to be somewhere in-between what I am trying to do with my layering of animations. I could just be slow on the uptake of understanding what others are doing though haha

@@NuttyDavid Once you "get it" the process will start flowing so fast. Don't give up! Your struggles will insp;ire me because there are several AMAZING games from my childhood that I want to re-create with a modern engine...

That's the plan!

I was thinking about that perspective the other day. If I have all these image files being loaded in... what is the memory overhead for that. I took a look and my one sprite sheet was 492 bytes so not horrible on the memory allocation. I am curious as to how bad it would get though from a drive perspective of potentially loading images in and out of a level.

We will get there slowly but surely.

Thank you its good to be back.

Oh this looks really cool. Its like a turn base game but set in a Mad Max World.
