Yeah I made that guy, thanks! Wanted to take a break from mini golf holes before I start doing halloween themed ones.
That's such a good character. The smoke especially looks great. I loved your mini golf game, by the way. Great work on that too.
I really like the idea of the candle being your lifebar but also your main way of navigating your environment or protecting yourself from enemies.
Maybe they hate the light or something like that?
Having to manage your wax between refilling stations (maybe a large dripping candle?) sounds like a lot of fun.
Having it take a second or two to 'charge up' before lighting could add an additional level of tension too.
In Puzzles of Conflict I did this by just having two copies, one of them flipped by pressing L3 (or R3?) while moving it. One button flips horizontally, one vertically.
Only way to do it is to flip the whole puppet after creating all the animations, like Sumasshu1 said. I wish you could flip the animation itself like you can in 3d modelling/animation programs but puppets actually aren't even symmetrical (for some reason) so I doubt it'd work well even if you could.
So I think I figured it out. What I did was make the puppet and put in a tag in it's brain to define it's axis orientation. Then I made two clones, one unchanged and one flipped horizontally, deleting the controller sensor on both and the original tag on the original puppet. Then I used transporters on the original to match axis orientation from either cloned puppets depending on what direction I pressed.
To test it out, I made a brand new pose on the original puppet and sure enough, the pose is flipped when facing the opposite direction.
It's messy and it took nearly my whole day off to figure it out, but yaaaaaaaaaay. This'll make the action platformer I'm working on much easier and readable.

That is so cool! Sure it's not "gameplay", but it's still gorgeous. I can't wait to see games with good cutscenes or just movies. Hopefully people will figure out how to seamlessly transition from cutscene to gameplay.
Was playing this earlier. It's incredible what can be achieved in Dreams.
The scoreboard, I don't think so. The highest score, yes, it needs to be a variable that persists between dreams

they should allow creators to pull it from leaderboard. wonder if anyone have asked for it
Hm, so my score menu has no point haha, oh well.. But i need to find some things to put on that splash screen :p
Looks great. I haven't booted up Dreams in at least a month but will definitely do so when you're done with this game.
Well made cutesy looking stealth game, think this guy is low key one of the best creators in Dreams in terms of polish:
This is one of the best horror games on Dreams, maybe even one of the best levels in general:
and...Superman!
and...Superman!
That's actually very good, remembers Below a lot. Curious to see how the final project will be. Keep up the good work.
Ugly Sofa Gaming has a very special announcement and we have a special week of Dreams content coming starting September 30th. Watch the video for more information:
Amazing job. Original idea, nice aesthetics, responsive controls, it's legit great.
Thanks! It's not quite an original idea as it's heavily inspired by Astrobot, but I appreciate the compliment nonetheless. I'm particularly proud of the controls so I'm glad people are noticing.
It's a top tier level, mate!
The only real suggestion I have is that I've noticed people on YouTube using the 'glide' mechanic to kind of coast over a few of the platforming sections. One potential way to minimise this could be to have the laser destroy the crumbling blocks faster than walking on them to encourage people to actually run and jump during those sections.
It was. I can post a screencap of the settings tomorrow if anyone is interested. I recently tried copying the settings over to a blank puppet and it didnt quite feel as good. I think the fact that the robot is slightly bigger than the puppet makes the controls feel more natural for some reason.
Thank you! The way I see it, if they can glide over some obstacles, that's fair game. Unless you're talking about them completely skipping over parts of the level or something. I haven't seen anything like that yet.
The idea of the lasers destroying platforms is an idea I want to use if I make a sequel. Maybe they could melt ice blocks or something.
Wow, that looks stunning! Thanks for sharing, Dreams has so much potential it's insane.
