    It begins

     

     

    Also I invoke the Crowd Source Diversifier.

     

     

    If you want to suggest or make an advert heres what i'm looking for (at least at the moment). 

    IE

    Name: "Mr Sticky Buns Burgers". 

    Slogan: "A Tasty Treat Just For You! It's Mr Sticky Buns Delectable Hams."

     

    Image: If you want to provide an image feel free but I can probably make one if need be. Don't worry too much about style, just shoot for flat and simple. Maybe i'll post a colour palette once I get the visual nailed down.

     

    In the future I might have more things to input.

    Me too haha. 

    So after a day in photoshop trying to pull together a UI/visual style test I still haven't made anything good looking in that kind of style.

     

    However I was looking at shaders to use and I came across a pixel shader which combined with my bad models made a really unpleasant character.

    Instead i'm thinking I could lean into the ugliness and embrace it, as the game progresses it gets more and more broken and gross.

     

    I don't know though, it could be really interesting to purposefully explore ugliness but its also not very nice for the player... But im not sure I have the skills to pull of the sweet visuals I was after... 

    Ill think about it for now.

    I've chosen the brand war. Now for more planning.

    Oh and also some base goals:
    1. Slicker UI - This game will lean on UI so i'm looking at Zero51 and really trying to get my menus up to scratch. 

    2. Is a Gamey Game - Every game idea I have seems to be more a tone and visual moment than an actual set of mechanics. I want to focus on it feeling more like a game with actual determinable consequences. My first one, though unfinished, was kinda mushy and relied a lot on style.

    3. Realistic Scope - I have already failed so HA. 

    4. Is actually fun -  Fingers crossed.

    Yup I agree with yall. I know how id do the supermarket one so its probably more of a sure thing but the Brand War is a bit more exciting. Im going to do some planning and see. 
    Haha yeah thats potentially the kind of vibe id go for ^.  Customers shuffle in from the darkness to peruse the well lit supermarket aisles .

    Hey yall, I have two ideas.

     

    They came through the floor (or maybe Momazon Prime): You manage a supermarket in a post apocalyptic hellscape. Tonally it's a smash up of bland corporate chain stores with ghoulish anarchic wasteland oddities. Gameplay is sort of a tycoon ish thing mixed with a tower defense mixed with rimworld. 

     

    The first great brand war: You must infect a city with your propaganda/advertising. A kind of black humor vibe as you assist your corporation in its latest territorial gain. Choosing different infection styles, building loyal cells to spread your message, "customer" enforcement etc.. A bit like that infection game or something. Top down and probably abstracted visually. 

     

    Anyway I'll sleep on it and then see tomorrow. 

     

     

    It has been decided, let the brand war commence. 

     

     

    Diversifier: Crowd Source.

    That's more agile than I am. 

     

    Its movement is at a sort of uncanny valley point. For a brief moment I perceive it as I might a person or animal, then it does something jankily and it's an awkward robot again.  Really impressive that BD is starting to transcend that though.

    Some thoughts..

    I thought the boy was a fabrication, or at least unclear intentionally. Thinking back im not too big on that ambiguity. 

    Also the resistance thing didn't bother me because it seems like the point of the film was to follow k as he tries to figure out what it is to be a 'person'. K dies when he makes the choice that conforms to neither faction and instead follows his own morals.  His death is a good one because he's succeeded in defining his own life and morality rather than being someone's tool. Also I really dug how it turned out he was not "the one" and the best thing he could hope for was a small victory.
