Well, I have some entry exam on monday to see if I would make it at this school thinger that will help me prepare for external exams (I dunno if something like that exists elsewhere, it's basically those guys from the examination board preparing the stuff you get tested at instead of your...
Tomorrow I'm finally moving back to Hamburg into my very own flat. :) I hope I'm gonna survive the day somehow, coz on Saturday I got the awful migraine/cold thinger, til some hours ago I still had fever and all... D: Just my luck, I guess. At least lots of my friends are gonna be helping out...
Alot has been going on in my life lately, yeah, alot. I broke up with my boyfriend after 3 1/2 years, there were many reasons for that, but the main reason being that I simply stopped loving him. Not from one day to the other, no, over the past 12 months my feelings got less and less, I've...
I don't like my birthdays in general and it's not like I care much about it anyways, but.. I don't know. Why do I feel so atrabilious today? sigh. D: My mother hasn't even called me yet, usually she calls me as soon as it's midnight to wish me a nice birthday and tell me she loves me. For...
I just wanted to say I'll be at granny's place until the 29th, so, merry christmas to everyone!! *__* Since I have no intarwebs or anything over there and the town where she lives is really boring and most of the time shops will be closed anyways I'll take my PS2 with me and play Persona 4...
So, when I checked my mails a few hours ago I saw this mail by Atlus with the beta key for SMT:Imagine and even tho I don't like MMORPGs much, I remember how I drooled at the game on the Japanese website, so I had this heavy urge to give the game a try. Now, 4 hours later I think I might enjoy...
First of all, I can't stop laughing about my bf who sits in front of our ultra big lcd tv and happily plays the Resistance 2 beta on our PS3. He's playing it online with two other guys who are talking English on their headsets and for some reason it amuses me alot to listen to them. XD...
I'll be on vacations for the next two weeks and without any internet at all, just so you know. :3 See you when I'm back! <3
A few hours ago, after lazying around for the last two years, I just did 50 sit-ups in one go. I'm a little amazed how easily I could pull it off and a little scared of the sore muscles I'm gonna have tomorrow. XD Also, I just decided to quit smoking, knowing me I'll probably get weak the...

    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
