Stechkin Automatic Pistol is in! Got me thinking how cool would it be to dual-wield a pair of these. hmm...

My mom’s first camera, a Praktica MTL 5B made in East Germany (GDR) in the 1980s!
I’ll be putting this in the game for a gameplay mechanic that’s been on my mind for a while

Yeah... some of my absolute favorite games are Demon's Souls, Dark Souls and Bloodborne but you'd never know because I never talk about them! Just yesterday I tried the PS4 emulator so I could try Bloodborne at 60fps and holy shit it's still so beautiful

Testing a sound propagation mechanic using the NavMesh, this way the sound can "travel" around corners and closed doors affect the max distance the sound can travel.
Still not sure how viable this is for the full game though!

Tip for a pacifist run: you can ride the info drones flying around in this level and with a high enough athletic build you can go inside the CorpMend building through the balconies outside, skipping the elevator ride

After all of that, we're now done firing we can spawn the casing with previous random values, remove a bullet from the UI/gun ammo and we wait for the gun's RPM to cycle until we can go back to waiting for the input so we can do it all over again!
November 12, 2025 at 6:41 PM
Whatever object we hit, if it has a "Health" component then we send a "Damage" event to it, can be glass, door or an NPC. We also do bullet penetration logic during the same frame, we do a second Raycast outwards starting from the first bullet hit
November 12, 2025 at 6:41 PM
After calculating the bullet inaccuracy we get that data and do a Raycast from the gun's muzzle, basically a laser that tells us what we hit in the game world, and based on what it hit we go to the different states (like hit an NPC, hit a barrel, hit glass etc)
November 12, 2025 at 6:41 PM
Here is where all the Recoil feedback is done, from the gun moving up, to the recoil pattern, to bullet spread, to the camera going up, to camera shake - everything is calculated and then smoothed out to the default values over an x amount of seconds, usually half a second
November 12, 2025 at 6:41 PM
Passing the ammo check, we go to the VFX state where I calculate the Player and Gun's forward as a base reference for random values for the casing's velocity, so that casings flying out look more natural. Then I send the Recoil event to a separate logic container-
November 12, 2025 at 6:41 PM
We start by waiting for an input, so we wait for the "Shoot" button to be pressed so that the event "Shoot Single Fire" is triggered, then once we're there we need to check if the gun has ammo before we proceed to the shooting logic
November 12, 2025 at 6:41 PM
I've gotten a few messages from people curious about game development so I thought it would be cool to show whats happening during 1 frame of gameplay when shooting a weapon in the game

New enemy NPC model acquired 🔫

Starting off with an excellent immersive-sim bundle hell yeah

Type 64 SMG with integrated suppressor. finding it hard getting a good balance between a good enough but fast animation so the 20-round mag doesn't get annoying to reload
November 11, 2025 at 6:02 PM
Cuban FAL and Chinese CQ-311 are animated! Big difference in recoil too
Trying to power through the rest of these regular firearms so I can start adding some niche things like the medieval handgonne and crossbow and some other equipment

Playing Neverdead on RPCS3 and there's some super funny ideas at play here - doing puzzles with your decapitated head, ripping off your limbs to throw them as grenades or bait and shooting the environment to collapse ceilings or structures on top of enemies
November 6, 2025 at 3:29 PM
Got the QBU-88 DMR and the CZ75 pistol animated, also trying out some gory VFX for headshots and wondering if it's worth extending to the limbs
November 4, 2025 at 9:19 PM
Time to play that Suicide Squad game
October 31, 2025 at 2:06 AM
East German Wieger 942 and the bullpup High Standard Model 10 shotgun with integrated flashlight have joined the roster!
Also trying out some post-processing stuff, sorry for the weird bloom
October 30, 2025 at 9:52 PM
My favorite one, definitely putting a medieval handcannon in the game!
October 14, 2025 at 3:57 PM
Went to the national military museum, lots of WW1 and medival equipment/weaponry.
Stielhandgranate is way bigger than I thought, the scale in movies and games really doesn't do it justice
October 14, 2025 at 3:54 PM
lol

I'm bringing back anamorphic lens bloom, this is now the game's final look
