Tbf the retry's sometimes _too_ quick. You die and because you select 'retry' with the jump key, sometimes it's just straight in. You can also restart whenever by clicking R3 or whatever key it gets tied to.

But seriously on this subject, this is something I myself and finding a challenge right now, because I have spent so much time debugging my game, I have become very good at playing it myself, and find everything to easy, but the second I have handed a map I have thought to be simple to a beginner, they have been completely flabbergasted.

9:10 with your rotational spikes, have you considered adding a path-line or central ‘strut’ to help visualize where they can move? The movement looks confusing to my eye (especially when they’re close together). I think you talked about that in a previous episode with respect to moving platforms. Loving the series!

Well, I've already been playing a platformer (in this case, Commander Keen Secret of the Oracle(also another platformer which has levels that move to the left)), to look at level design. But if LTGD is assigning us homework to think about game chunks, I guess I have no choice but to go play some more. Edit: Also, thanks. I struggled a lot with designing levels before watching these, but now I really enjoy it.

Calling it chunk... I mean fine call it what you like, but the term already means something very specific in game dev - it's a method of optimisation where you break up the game world into segments which you spawn in and out so you can put more detail near the camera without tanking the frame rate because you're asking the gpu to render six gazzilion verts. I'm sure the non-programmers here will be familiar with assets / terrain popping in when you approach. It's not the only approach to optimising, you can use quads, particles and all sorts but it's extremely common in 3d games especially. I've never heard the term used to describe breaking up the level for difficulty but maybe it is a thing and I just didn't know.
@4lkareth
3 жыл бұрын
Words can have several meanings, chunks are also what you find in cookies. :) You're referring to a concept related to programming and optimization, while he's talking about another field of knowledge which is game design, so I wouldn't be bothered with that. Maybe another relevant word to imply the same concept could be a "trial", with the double meaning of test and proof: then your levels are made of successive trials that the player must overcome in order to succeed in a single loop.

@4lkareth

Just kidding, it's probably done with a collision detector placed on the right or left of the player character depending of which side he's facing, allowing to trigger relevant behavior when a wall is detected. Behavior would be something like "slide the wall if player maintains arrow key facing the wall, allow for a jump if he hits jump key". Dunno if it's clear but this is a general explanation, not Construct3-specific.

I heavily disagree on the bit about lives. Anyone that has played Sonic 1 with the original lives system can tell you it's just not a fun experience to die to the final boss and have to trudge your way back through Marble Zone and Labyrinth Zone. It also has THE worst special stages. There's a reason Sonic games quickly ditched that system, it wasn't good difficulty but simply padding. Comparing that to roguelikes seems to be missing the forest for the trees as well, since the core of their design revolves around procedurally generated content, meaning each time you die, you get a different run with different challenges. In Sonic, you just do the exact same thing over again. The lives system in Sonic 1 really is antiquated and the game is made much more enjoyable in the Christian Whitehead port.

I don't really mean 'jukebox', and I don't know why I keep saying 'jukebox'. I mean 'playlist system'. Basically, rather than having a specific track per level, the tracks will loop on a playlist that you can jump between by pressing the shoulder buttons on a controller, or some keyboard keys. 'Skip track', essentially.
