Chinese Shadows [1 to 4 players, platformer]

Archive: 6 posts


I've been working on that during the holydays. The idea is pretty simple: the obscurity is set to the maximum.
The idea came strangely, I must say - I was imagining some holographic white squares flying and spinning in the background.
I try it out, it was beautiful.
But the thing is, I don't have a lot of ideas for the gameplay. I have made some sections of the level, but I fear the players could have difficulties understanding what to do. And the difficulty seem rather desequilibrate, too.
So if you were taken by a strange need to help me - I'd welcome it happily :V
I'll probably try to add some pics to show how it is, and I'd happily take you on my moon, if you want to see it directly.
Big thanks in advance
Oh, and the name refer to the litteral translation of "ombres chinoises" - the shadow play.

Yes, that's it, though in my case it's more the opposite.2014-10-24 13:05:00

The silhouette glass material does the opposite of the usual silhouette style of black on white.

The glass material does white (Or your choice of color) on black.


Which brings up a question. Why in the heck aren't these special glass effects just options in the world tweaker?!?! >:V


It would be awesome to have everything all pixelated, silhouetted, outlined, or other great effects!

True
I wanted to use glass to make my platform because I wanted these to be totally transparent to the background... but I realized the material tweaker couldn't make the material less slippery, only more %D

Well you use the glass as a giant wall and put it in front of everything in the level. No need to use it for actually walking on.

And you could just use invisible material.
