HAHAHAHAHAHA

I GOT 2 POLYS AND GUESS WHAT IT SAYS? ❣️

❗ ❕ ❗ ❕ ❗

"SURVIVES 17/17 WAVES"

Put a few Polys in a zone then leave and it will take it over automatically?

Somehow I don't trust that it will work that way...

Just so you know I'm very excited about (#)Mindustry171!!

so I made my first air factory on 171, I'm a bit low on silicon...but that's ok...

...making my first mono...

"SURVIVES 3/18 WAVES"

let me take a look...I'm at 7/25 waves.

What did it mean?

25-7? 25-7=18, that must be it. Survives 3 out of 18 waves means not all waves but that I'm on the right track!

The game mechanic is: if you got enough infrastructure/forces you keep a sector!

Today I got a interesting idea for a boss in a Dark Souls like game. Think of a trader which you meet early in the game. You do trade with him, feeding him with souls.

As the game progresses he will betray you getting a boss of the game, but the boss is stronger the more souls you donated to him by buying items. I think this would be a fun mechanic. He kind of leveled himself with the souls.

What happens when coming in second place is almost as good as first place?

You did not unlock a new skill with 500 Science Points, you didn't scan 23 new plants. You learned how the ecosystem works and you are in balance with it.

This is the part that usually gets montage-d in all the movies where the protagonist "learns the way of the wild" etc.

But let's not gloss over it this time, let's make it #gamedesign , #gamemechanic , where the #game >is< about that.

For my #solorpg games I have hit a snag, I need to find a way to do very simple, narrative, stat free combat that I can mostly memorize.

Been playing with an idea where a dice is rolled for the PC and NPC and you calculate the numbers between them to see what the result was.

example:
PC 3 and NPC 6 = 2

Then 2 would be a level of attack and maybe the higher roll would be the victor. BUT it still seems luck of the dice.

Any ideas?

My son gave me a new perspective on the value of cosmetics in games. Certain cosmetics can declare certain skills and thus even though they don’t offer any boosts in the gameplay, they can be used for psychological manipulation of other players so they can avoid you for example if your cosmetic shows high skill #gameplay #gamemechanic #Cosmetic #psychology

It the games industry doomed to make “skinner boxes” or it can move away from this model and still make money? This game studio is trying to do something different but investors are reluctant… #psychology #gamemechanic #empathy #addiction https://www.wired.com/story/destinys-sword-empathy-2dogs-video-games/
