I've finally clicked the green button and launched Ares Breathes' steam page. Here's a trailer I made to go along with it. Retweets n wishlists and all that stuff appreciated of course.
Probably should've done this earlier but oh well. Link in the thread.

When I explained to my gf that I spent a week testing the performance cost of motion blur on grass she asked if gamers really deserve this level of effort and I had no response

Hey
#PitchYaGame
!
I'm making a classic RE-esque static camera tank controlled horror/exploration game with a focus on environmental interactions and the physicality of your heavy robot suit.
Manage your vitals to survive in this place where even the air is out to kill you.

@cdbunker2
The gamers NEED a multidimensional graph showing the influence of velocity buffer output timing, z pass masking timing and type of foliage being used

Agreed
Bring back white or color orthographic lineart on the black background as a "futuristic" aesthetic.

Still pretty happy with how subtle this effect is, making the fog less strong in the middle of the screen. You can see the furthest piece of broken road when the camera is aimed at it but can't depending on the angle. I can set the strength of this effect individually per camera

My super unsubtle sledgehammer lights are now a bit more sophisticated in that they scale in intensity depending on the camera distance and strength of the current sandstorm.

Happy and sad to announce that I'll start a new full time job from next week, so progress on Ares Breathes will probably slow down while I adjust.
It seems like it'll be a fairly interesting job though, excited to find out what it'll be like. A little nervous, too.

I kind of love how unapologetically Armored Core AC6 is. I'm just selecting missions from a list, killing some dudes, and going back to the list. No hubs, no NPCs to talk to. Just mission, shop, mission, shop, mission.
I haven't played a game this mission list based in years.

The world design in the ER dlc almost makes me mad. How can humans make something this tight and connected in a big team. How does their pipeline look. I just can't believe this.

Not sure what I retweeted in my sleep but I bet it was a great take.

Was thinking about what to do for the main menu screen of the demo, and every idea seemed like more effort than is worth doing right now. Just realized I could probably just throw buttons on here and save myself the trouble of loading in and out of this scene at game start anyway

Separated indoors and outdoors stuff for memory management reasons but hadn't quite updated my respawn system yet.
Also, I like his arm. That one IK target isn't keeping up with the respawn movement apparently.

Somehow with the procedural animations it's quite easy to feel bad for my enemy robots, even when they destroy themselves by attacking me

This one has always made me mad. Miya is just being an old man here. Which is fine, he is an old man. But the people taking this and pretending he's doing anything but being an asshole to some students or engineers that were just excited about a piece of tech they worked on...

So far I just had a specific spot where interactive objects can be grabbed, but for big things like these screens that didn't really work so I made them arbitrarily grabbable along lines or simple primitives.

Hey
#PortfolioDay
I'm me and I like robots and shaders. I'm making a static camera tank controlled survival horror game set in a destroyed colony on Mars, Ares Breathes.
Also open for programming work, I have about 4 years of experience in the Japanese games industry.

Oh,
#pitchyagame

I'm making a static camera survival horror exploration game with a focus on environmental interaction.
I wrote my own procedural animation system and use it for movement, combat, turning levers and pulling stuff apart.

The IGN interview with Miyazaki and Yamamura is legit just
>Hi can you tell us that Armored Core is like Souls?
It's not, it's AC
>But what did you learn from Souls?
We're trying to make it AC and we're looking at past AC games
>How about Sekiro?
Nah it's AC

Was thinking about how to link up my movement scripts and the cable to make sure it has a max range a bunch last night without it all becoming a noodly mess...
and this morning I just realized I can just plop down an invisible circular collider when you pick the cable up. Wow.

Going to the countryside for new years so this will probably be the last progress post of the year. Playing around with secondary motion on the armor flaps, reacting to the procedural movement of the legs.
Happy new year everybody.

Making the inside of the church. It's my first time making an indoors area like this so I'm having to make a lot of new decisions and designs.
