What went wrong :<\/p>\n
-I’m not familar with the beat em all genre, I was clearly lacking knowledge and the game lacks juice.
\n -Artwise it’s “meh” at best, I spent way too much time trying to make the assets work visually and I’ve made way too few of them the game feels pretty empty.
\n -Artwise again : I totally screw up the few animations I had to do, the walk-cycles are “okayish I guess” but the punch animations are…awfull. Dynamics have never been my strong suit but here’s a new low.
\n -The theme (coffee shop & demons) and the gameplay are lacking cohesion, It doesn’t feel right, I should have gone with a lighter approach.<\/p>\n
What went right :<\/p>\n
-Once again, I’m surprised by how much I can do codewise, even if it’s poor and ugly, it still works.
\n -There’s some assets that are not that bad, even if they are classic, individually they actually are decent.
\n -I love failing, it’s easier to see what you could have done and really think about it (and it keeps your head on the ground). \u00a0I’m pretty sure if I ever do another game like this in the future it’ll be far better (wich is pretty easy). And it’s knowledge I can apply to other genre.
\n -The theme itself is actually a good idea, I always wanted to make a game with some jazzy lounge influence. It’s not this one but I have a clearer idea on how I might do it.<\/p>\n
And, of course, the timelapse for the third day :<\/p>\n
