Post Mortem on "Electric Neon"

I wanted to create a quick post on some of the techniques that i learnt while creating "electric neon". I have watched alot of "game feel" videos before this ludum dare.

What Went Well?

  • Field of view changes based on speed: (car feels faster)
  • Camera looks left and right based on steering amount (to simulate user looking into corners)
  • Car rotates left and right based on steering amount (to simulate car roll)
  • 80s artstyle allowed me to create a simple artstyle that was striking
  • Using the post processing stack allowed me to create a neon world
  • UI all being on the car itself made the game more immersive
  • Car audio was funny as i made it all with my mouth but people liked it lol

What Didn't Go Well?

  • Battery was in wrong location as it was hard to see
  • Steering was broke while reversing
  • Batteries were often hard to see in level
