Re: Enough. Shooting.
i dont know... to me the violence, or lack of violence isnt the issue. its the message that the game has, games are just lacking sub messages anymore. for a while there, games were all about some sort of commentary on the way we live our lives, now they are just fluff. jack and daxter is based around a world that tore… -
Re: The Monthly 'Newb' CHARACTER Challenge | July 2014 | Multiple Pieces
This is my progress so far in Maya. Frankly I am a bit nervous. So far its mostly low poly. The only high poly objects here would be the cannon piece. Will still add the nuts and bolts, maybe. lotet: So far liking the output on your mech, liking the hands and how smooth the whole mech looks. Mr. Moose: I would suggest… -
Unusual game design ideas
I think this thread should have a rule: Every time you post comments on other people's ideas you must also post a new idea yourself I had some game design ideas, and I thought it would be cool to have a thread talking about unusual game design concepts. This thread isn't so much about what ideas would sell the most games,… -

Re: Playstation Vita
Sorry to be that guy but: http://www.polycount.com/forum/showthread.php?t=80577 I was obscenely excited about this before TGS. I'm a huge PSP fan, and Monster Hunter obsessive so I was probably more excited than some, but after seeing Japans launch lineup, I'm a little disappointed. I'm glad they didn't go with some stupid… -
Re: Portfolio criticisms
Definitely take the criticism on board from the last two posts. Keep your head up and tackle each project at a time with a little more intricacy. We've all been there or would have been there under lack of guidance but the main thing is you've gotten some good feedback now and keep pushing it :) The tutorial stuff, rather… -
Re: Art test for Nintendo Wii
i'd be careful with polys for characters. as i said, you have to skin all those vertices and if you have 3500 verts + 10*1500 verts for some enemies, you have 19k skinned verts. you need to process those every frame(and we love 60 frame games ;) ). i think your engine could get problems. mario in galaxy has about 5k polys,… -
Re: Commuting: DS or PSP?
I have both, and while I agree both have their strengths and weaknesses I find myself playing my psp more. I'll be really honest though, my psp is software hacked and I have all kinds of stuff installed on it. I only have a few DS games and I only really felt compelled to play Zelda Phantom Hourglass. The new mario, while… -
Best practise for designing floor pieces in mobile 2.5D platformer games?
Hi All, I'm a newbie to game development, i'll try to explain the best i can. I wanted to know what are the best practises for building floor pieces in mobile 2.5D platformer games. I've used Mario for an example (see image) as this is the style i will be mimicking as a practice run. The bottom section of the floor looks… -
Re: Occupy Wall St
It's relevant enough in the fact that someone(s) is attempting to fake some sort of movement by possibly photoshopping these "53%" notes. Also, +1 to "Former Marine". I've only ever heard Marines talk about how there are no "Former" or "Ex" Marines. Once a Marine, always a Marine. It's a matter of pride.
