Enemy Attacks and More! - Unity Indie Game Devlog #10

[@Tantandev]

1:28 Only time when "It's not a bug it's a feature!" is appropriate to say :P

[@DanielLochner]

Haha! xD

[@TonsOfHunStudios]

Yeah, animation events are so useful! The attack system is really cool, and I love the one where the aliens come out of it's mouth :D That is also a great solution for the transparent/opaque materials. Also, really appreciate the shoutout!!! Keep up the good work!

[@DanielLochner]

Thanks Garrett! I can’t wait to show you the other attacks for all the enemies then! And, you’re welcome! 😊

[@TonsOfHunStudios]

@@DanielLochner Awesome!

[@MetalStormGames]

This is looking awesome, nice work

[@DanielLochner]

Thanks!

[@_danny_idk]

Awesome, the big spider alien is very well made. And the idea with destructible enviroment is cool, I can just imagine how this game will look in 3-4 months:)) Anyway, I am already a subscriber of GamesInHouse and ZeroTris. Maybe in the near future you can make a discord server, I really want to talk with you about this game:)

[@DanielLochner]

Thanks! I’m so excited to keep working on this game, and continue showing you the progress each week! :) And I’m definitely looking into getting a discord server soon, so keep writing down your ideas for the game! I’d love to hear them! :D

[@xvtitanbane2349]

Instead of just fading, it might be cool if when dead the aliens quickly decompose into the group. btw good work :)

[@DanielLochner]

Thanks! And yeah, nice idea! Maybe I can add some particle effects to make it look more like it is decomposing into the ground! 😁

[@hawkman2988]

@@DanielLochner Could also look at some dissolve shader tutorials.

[@LeeTGame]

Nice video. I normally leave the enemy's body on the ground. Because my game is a turn-based game, not so many enemies for each battle. So it is OK. For a shooting game, I would say leave it on the ground for a certain time. Then sink or fade the body. :)

[@DanielLochner]

Thanks! And yeah, I was considering adding rag-doll physics to the aliens, but I don’t really want too much clutter in the level. Having then active all the time might also have a slight impact on performance, and being a mobile game, that’s quite important! :)

[@LeeTGame]

@@DanielLochner I see. That's good thought.

[@INeatFreak]

Where did you get the drink animation from?

[@fawazaljohani8447]

Just found your channel through one of your comments, glad I clicked your profile, really interesting stuff. You got a new sub

[@DanielLochner]

Thanks! Appreciate the support! :)

[@4del]

Nice workaround for pathfinding with the destructible obstacles. You definitely should use something like A* alghorithm and do a proper pathfinding.

[@indieprogress7170]

Nice update. Did you create those aliens? If so did you use Blender or another software?

[@DanielLochner]

Thanks! And I explained all of that in my previous devlog! :D

[@indieprogress7170]

Ill check it out.

[@bip_studios]

Wow, the aliens look super neat!

[@DanielLochner]

Thanks bro! 😁

[@Miku-id7rb]

What is the name of the character packs you're using?

[@DanielLochner]

Not quite sure of the name right now, but I found it on the Unity Asset Store! :)

[@shroomy__rxcks]

i think last time i asked if this game would be free or not. i think it’s now obvious it’s gonna be free.

[@DanielLochner]

Yeah! I replied to your comment in the last devlog! :) It’s going to follow a “freemium” business model, meaning that it will be free, however there will be items in-game (such as certain clothing, limited edition items etc.) that will be available through in-app purchases!

[@INeatFreak]

why portrait mode?

[@DanielLochner]

You can switch between portrait and landscape mode! I just find that when I’m developing the game in the editor, arranging my panels/windows that way is the best! :)

[@justaddwater6348]

I was gonna say "ragdolls" but I forgot that this is a mobile game... That sucks.

[@justaddwater6348]

OH WAIT, maybe have ragdolls as an option! Also, is this going to be ported to more advanced devices, such as PC, and even consoles?

[@DanielLochner]

I’ll definitely be adding some rag-doll physics! They’re so much fun to play with! 😜 Also, lots of people have been asking, so I’ll definitely consider a PC port!
