Ok, I get it! Singleplayer only games suck! I've added the possibility to play alone!

It's still exactly as with other couch coop games of that genre (Overcooked, MovingOut etc.) that it's not that much fun alone so there is this disclaimer now.

Please tell me what you think. Is this a good solution?

There went a lot of cool tech in the #GarbageCrew! #Trailer

The comic pages are a cloth simulation. All comic pages have video textures which work amazingly easy with #blender. The outlines are done with Grease Pencil. I wish outlines were that easy in #Unity

Who said fuzzing can only be used in #itsec? Probably nobody, OK, but I've just reproduced a bug, which caused the firehose to get invisible when quick changes from very low negative to very high positive values were applied as length, by just throwing random length values at the library!

#gamedev #indiedev #garbagecrew

Screenshot of Garbage Crew! Showing A garbage truck in a medieval setting and three players. One player is carying a bucket, one is holding onto the truck and the one is extinguishing a fire with a water jet with no visible hose attached. The screenshot is annotated with red dots that show where the hose should be and a sad smiley.Codesnippet showing the following Line:

m_objectInUseRCC.ChangeLength(Random.Range(-100f, 100f));

Which sets the firehose length to a random value between -100 and 100 every frame.

Just added some #Steam achievements to #GarbageCrew

There are four types of #achievements:
- Level (For completing levels and incentives)
- Progression (Based on stats like emptying a certain amount of garbage cans)
- Challenge (Certain tasks that add some extra complexity to a level, like extinguishing all fires on the map instead of only those required for progression)
- Fun (For some not gameplay related stuff you can do on the map or easter eggs)

I'm not working on anything #screenshot worthy today but at it is #screenshotsaturday I thought I'd share some screenshots of the extremely beautiful environment art Anja Schmitt did for #GarbageCrew

Alltough all the trees, houses and decorations are purely cosmetic and won't intercept with gameplay they give so much value to the game as the world feels so much more legit and fun this way!

Hey everyone 👋 How long was it? Two weeks? Whatever! I feel a lot better now so I guess I'm back!

Except some #GarbageCrew conten't soon!

No new gameplay today, just a lot of #performance benchmarks and optimisations! Starting from 46fps on ultra settings this morning I'm up to 77 by batching textures, geometry and terrain! Still a lot of potential but we're getting there!

Wow, first post of the week on a thursday... Things are kinda rough right now. However, I've built this how to play screen into #GarbageCrew that shows you short video clips in addition to the various controls.

To finish of this week I've implemented #Discord Rich Presence in #GarbageCrew! It'll show the level you're playing with a cute little icon, the time you have left and the player count.

I'm kinda stressed out from working while having to deal with health related stuff for the whole week so I might be off for a few days. 👋

I think I start the #weekend by getting some mexican food! 🌮

See ya soon!

Just finished setting up the testing for tonight. This is a build of #GarbageCrew that automatically joins two players, sets a seed, starts the level and logs the map generation, over and over again to see if the map generation is completely deterministic with identical seeds.

The game had a lot of problems in edge cases that are hopefully fixed by now. I guess I'll see tomorrow!
Good night #mastodon and happy #testing to my laptop!

I've built a powerup that allows you to switch the color of the buckets in #GarbageCrew. You can choose from 26 different color combinations including a lot of #queer #pride colors!

#gamedev #indiedev #unity

2023-07-28

Just build a new powerup that gives the truck this nice dragon costume. When equipped it scares away townfolk that comes close.

Are you scared? I am! 🐲

(Second #screenshot is the ingame view. You'll never see the costume like in the first screenshot except in the store view. But that's probaply better as everybody would be so scared they couldn't play!)
