Whatchu Workin' On? Tell us!

Creating the first boss in my unnamed game. He is basically just going to fly around and throw fire. Eventually going to post a video of the battle.

Very nice! If he's going to be some kind of guardian of a temple or something (which I'm guessing by the look of it) I would make him look more worn. The eyes could use some luster, too.

Hello there. I would make the overlay slightly more see-through, the dark parts are pretty hard to see, and people with meh monitors won't see anything.
map looks good, from what I can see.

Is it possible to get better at mapping?

Try playing some other games and see how they make their maps. Try to emulate their stuff. Maybe that helps.

Like others say, that's a lot of effort for something people will only use when they are bored of the enemies or just in a hurry (in other words, when a failed escape or prolonged escape time only annoys).
It's a pretty neat little thing, and somewhat realistic I guess, but most people won't care, truthfully.

Working on a forest. Removed the lighting to make it easier to see stuff, how's this?



What do you call a "Great Mario Level"?

The topic title fooled me... I had such a great name for a mario level that I came up with just for this, and then I read the post, and it's not about what to call a great Mario level. Why would you do this to me?

Project random crashes; Script or something else?

It's kinda hard telling if it's a script without seeing your project. If you can, try removing all your scripts and see if the error still happens.
Edit: All your custom scripts, ofcourse.

The Featured Game Thread

Agreed. 90% of games (more?) never get completed. I think it's best to save the honor for something that is in a finished state, rather than something half-done that may never get completed, good or not.
It just feels wrong featuring a work-in-progress when there are plenty completed stuff that is equally good.
The game in question is even cancelled and won't ever get completed. So yeah, glad something else got featured.

The Featured Game Thread

Featuring a cancelled game wouldn be kinda weird if you ask me. Isn't getting featured only for finished games?

I don't mind the trees growing from stone or whatever, but in the first picture I honestly can't tell what's supposed to be ground and whats supposed to be walls.
That is not good, realism or not realism.
