I've never made a combat platformer before, so making levels like this is new to me
But with the cool enemies I have, I think the fun will create itself

I'm gonna be rich (until Dhirim gets sieged)

The Rook Enemy is now implemented into the Chess Combat Platformer
They charge at the player along the ground, forcing the player to jump
And they're CONSISTENT, normally ending a charge with the player still in range
Should make some interesting gameplay

This is why we never win wars...

Most combos will be pretty simple, but I'm throwing in a few for the sickos. I can't even do a bunch of these consistently

Incredible background art mate 😍
Video games are made up of Gameplay Moments, but what are they and how do you create them?

The different enemies in my Chess Combat Platformer project
Enemies are based off of Minecrafts enemy variety and how they effect gameplay
I am very excited for this project and I hope you are too

"Games are made up of 30 second moments repeated over and over"
When making games, create your mechanics and then think of interesting ways they can be combined to create gameplay moments

You have got to lock in mate, this is the 3rd time this week!

Got a simple game? That's ok, just stylise it and lean heavily into it
This game is simple, but due to the computer file theme it becomes interesting
#gamejamgame #indiegamedev #gamedev #howtomakegames
Make sure death / damage is visible
The easiest way to show this is to change the modulation of the sprite for a brief second

Tiring day at work so thought I'd do some messing about with different enemy duos
2 Bishops is a pain to fight
Chess Combat Platformer is coming along nicely

Want to add comedy to your games?
The humour comes from the reaction / consequence, not the set up.
So make sure there are reactions to your actions

Struggling for enemy types for your game?
Take enemy types from Minecraft, their enemies are perfect for almost any game

Thank you ❤️ it’s for a jam and my first time doing a platformer, but I see the idea having serious potential, might make it into a full release after the jam 😅💪🏻
love the vibrant colours 😍
I'm very proud of my Bishop enemy in my Chess Combat Platformer
It keeps players moving, and organically encourages arial combat
It also makes simple paws more deadly as I have to track threats from the ground and the air

The talk down when we need speak will be fun 😅

How to make an interesting sniper fight
Quiet is a simple yet deadly opponent, creating an immersive fight that never feels unfair
#gamedev #indiegamedev #bigboss #bossfight #howtomakegames
Chess Combat Platformer
Bishop is now 90% complete
They will jump up, and then strike the player diagonally
Players must avoid the strike or jump over the Bishop
Now to work on the Rook
#gamedev #gaming #indiegaming #gamer #gamejamgame
Snipers are naturally unfair opponents due to being able to hit the player from far away
But you can give them some interesting disadvantages to make the fight fair

How to make an Immersive Sniper Fight: Quiet
This is not about defeating Quiet, it's about finding where she is, lining up the shot, and taking it

Want to make an immersive sniper fight?
Start the player pinned down, the first task is then to survive, not defeat their opponent

A chess combat platformer?
Theme is "A Small World", using each piece as a different enemy type
Should create some exciting moments when different pieces team up

I thought we were trying to... win...?

How to Make a Sniper Fight
Kojima has made 2 of the best sniper fights in gaming history, and here's how you can make great fights yourself

Desert bandits... they catch you when you don't want to fight, and get away when you do! #mountandbladewarband #mountandblade #mountandbladebannerlord
This guy's talking about hanging... despite no one being hanged (common Merchant L) 😅 #mountandbladewarband #mountandblade #mountandbladebannerlord
