Yep! It's just way easier to record gameplay in flatscreen. But still primarily a VR game. I'll release a proper VR trailer at some point.

@funagengames1177 totally understandable, looking forward to it

I actually planned on doing the body "cooling down" thing before de-spawning dead enemies! Just hadn't gotten around to it yet.

And a perfectionist whose curse of ADHD gives him temporary hyper-focus to bang stuff out when motivation hits😅

Yes! It was just easier to record in flatscreen mode for the purpose of demonstrating updated visuals.

Well, the characters are on a plane so i dont think there should be some sort of Panicked Voice or smth. But yeah, the voice should have more soul in it than bland repeated callout.

"accidentally"

Ave Belka!

Yeah...they keep ruining their image for money

there will be a vr option i think

The game is originally in VR. See my older video. It's also playable in flatscreen and I just so happened to record it without a headset.

@@funagengames1177 i have an idea, you know like vtol vr has a mp3 player, maybe you could do that for the game where you can put your own music files and play the music while in game! :P

Thanks for the feedback! The enemy animations and behavior are still very much a WIP. As far as the dust and smoke, while I would LOVE to have them linger for longer (and have burning fires that continually billow smoke), the challenge is that particle systems are hugely expensive for VR games. When there is smoke hanging everywhere, framerate completely tanks. Also, destruction is in the works. Just haven't implemented it yet!

​@@funagengames1177 holy, this is an VR game? ^^ I didnt realize, thought you made some cursor following animation with the hand at the beginning. yeah particles will be too expensive, perhaps you can get away with a basic shader on a plane surface replacing the particles that is turning towards the camera repeadetly after the explosion and first smoke the mimic the smoke, tho didnt work on VR much so ^^. Would love to play it without VR tho just saying supporting friendly troops from up there ^^. Anyways best wishes ^^

@@noxccc8267 Yes it's primarily a VR game. it's also playable in flatscreen, which is what this was recorded in. The plane you're talking about is literally how particles work already, but I'm referring to transparency specifically which is expensive. My particle systems actually use masked dithering which is way cheaper than translucency, but even still, if there are tons of masked particles filling the screen, it's bad for performance.

​@ I was talking about singular plane for each explosion (instead of multiple planes like in the particle system) that has a transparent(or use dithering) shader mimicing dust while rotating towards the cam, like how they make 3D grass with 2 crossing planes, but just one this time looking at the camera. Also they do it in some games with explosions/effects and such to reduce the amount of objects instantiated to produce the effect, ofc feel of depth disturbs when camera is free to move but in this case camera seems like will be always fixed, so I think it will be okay. just wanted to share it, felt like a good idea to cheap way produce the effect if I managed to explain what I have in my mind. ^^

@@noxccc8267ohhh right. Yeah initially my explosions were all just single flat planes like you’re describing, but it becomes apparent very quickly that it’s not 3D, especially when you’re looking down from a high altitude. However, i do plan on experimenting with adding some longer lasting smoke effects like you’re talking about as those wouldn’t need to “spread out” horizontally like the explosions do.

@@TumbleTrashOfficial nah he was an american citizen in israel

Existed

@@NickstaSims Existence revoked.

Are you referring to when the enemies duck when rounds hit the ground? If so, I did implement a system where their reaction is more delayed the further away they are from the impact location. The intensity of their ducking also scales with the distance. But I'll spend some time tweaking the distance and timing parameters.

@@ImMichaelB exactly.

@@funagengames1177 no, it's about when you fire they instantly react. That's not realistic. The sound of the guns are not even to hear when the projectile's reached the target most of the time.

@IIXxSLAYERxXII Watch the video again. The enemies don't react when the guns are fired. They react when the rounds hit the ground.

​@@funagengames1177 Hey, first off thank you for taking the time to reply. I actually love the enemy reactions to the rounds hitting the surface, my critique is more aimed at the reaction of the NPC at the 0:36 mark. It looks like the NPC relocates immediately once weapon is fired (player inputs the fire command) as opposed to reacting to the sound or sight of the incoming projectiles. It's not bad by any means, but the reaction time just seemed fairly quick there. Like I said it's hard to ensure the gameplay isn't just shooting sitting ducks and what you've presented does a great job of expanding upon the AC-130 missions from the Call of Duty titles. That being said, excellent work so far this looks incredible! After watching it again at a slower playback rate there are a lot of little details to appreciate. The animation of the soldier limping away from the rounds at 0:49 for example does an excellent job of suspending ones sense of disbelief. On a side note, are there any plans for eye tracking or VR support? I know you're working on the project alone and I'm sure the implementation of those technologies may be overly complex or time consuming to consider not to mention they are fairly niche markets but it would add a lot to the immersive qualities of the game. Keep on keeping on!

how many gunship based game did you play? and how many of them you saw at least?

my dude they literally can see you shoot

@ modern warfare games and Arma modded. Im also writing about reality. The sound of the weapons most of the time (depending on altitude) are not even to hear when the projectile's are hitting the target. Only after because the sound needs more time to travel. So in reality they are not instantly trying to avoid getting hit after you fire lol.

@@ИльяВитцев nope. That's not like this in reality.

@ no shit, but they're literally constantly paying attention to you because you're the only threat that's shooting tracer rounds

No release date, but I'm working on getting the Prologue mission from the campaign finished an available for download. I'm hoping that'll happen within the next few months 🤞

@@funagengames1177 yooooooooooooooooo

And please, take your time. You might be stressed so take a break every once in a while.
