The theme I plan to go for a mixing OG topdown rpg vibe with retrobaseball, wizards/mages pitch warriors/orcs bat, elves/skeletons field and mix in some magic/roguelike elements and if enough interest is show did stadium environments
another iterate experimenting with camera zoom, got some base runners, fielding , scoring, still needs more tweaking #RetroGaming #NES #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #Sportsgames #GenX #8bit #RetroSports #C64 #BaseballStars #Roguelike #D&D
Ok I added a base runner, now I need to work smarter AI for the Fielders and Runners #RetroGaming #NES #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #Sportsgames #GenX #8bit #RetroSports #C64 #BaseballStars #Roguelike #D&D
Got some batting and pitching started and some now some fielding, using Godot 4.5 #RetroGaming #NES #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #Sportsgames #GenX #8bit #RetroSports #C64 #BaseballStars #Roguelike #D&D
"iterate" the word of the day, I managed to get some batting, pitching AI to work , Now I am migrating to Godot 4.5. #RetroGaming #NES #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #Sportsgames #GenX #8bit
Making some progress on core game loop, and a little juice , next is probably adding the fielders #Godot #Gamefeel #Retrogames #IndieDev #8bit #NES #Sportsgames
Working on a fun playable game loop, added a charge particle effect to alert batter to pitch, zoom while charging, register of balls, strikes and hits #Godot #Gamefeel #Retrogames #IndieDev #8bit #NES #Sportsgames
New update , went back to the starting board, playing with some mechanics for pitching so its pc keyboard friendly, and game controller friendly, just trying to find the right fun and game feel. #Godot #Gamefeel #Retrogames #IndieDev #8bit #NES #Sportsgames
I started with troubleshooting some issues and I ended up adding a fielder. #RetroGaming #NES #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #Sportsgames #GenX
Made some progress setting up some debugging for testing some game feel variables for pitching and batting mechanics. #RetroGaming #NES #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #Sportsgames"
Maybe as i get something playable,you can game test and provide some feedback.
I want to start with with a playable starter game loop then introduce roguelike/rpg elements and see where this goes.
Starting my first indie game dev project. Goal: capture that magic of OG NES sports games like RBI Baseball. Maybe add a twist. Step one: get a playable loop going in Godot. #GenX #IndieDev #Godot #NES #RetroGaming #SportsGames
