Say hi to Blanco /v. He loves meeting new friends.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZDPNXrUZI0
I unironically love this...
The character is the cutest damn thing I've ever seen and I hate myself for liking it so much and that platforming looks smooth as butter.
Keep up the good work, OP.Now comes the part where everyone accuses me of being you.
>>343146140
Thanks mate. I originally thought posting it to 4chan would get it hate, but I actually feel like I accomplished something with this character.
I agree, adorable as fuck, especially the idle animation. I genuinely think you might have a hit in the making. The lack of UI is also a really nice change.
Great job.
Oh cool, an indie puzzle/platformer with heavily pixelized graphics.
>>343145793
>indie pixel shit is now transcending to the third dimension
Sooo you just ripped Mario 64s platforming and movement and put your own model
Cute op, cute.
Fucking faggot
>>343145793
That's cool and all OP, buthow many times will I have to press A to complete it?
Looks good to me anon
>>343147314
1 half press
>>343147314
>>343147421
>>343147402
Thanks. I know indie pixel games are overdone, but I feel like I can make it work with this one.
That rock texture makes me think of Lisa, it's making me uncomfortable.
Otherwise looks pretty neat OP, just keep polishing it and working hard.
>>343147523
I think you have a chance.
Already looks better than most fucking full games that get shoveled onto Steam on a daily basis, so you already got that going for you.
My one suggestion is maybe instead of having him lift himself up onto platforms when he's clinging on them, maybe flip himself up somehow? Might add a bit more character. He already has tons, I just thoguht it might be cute. Might ruin some flow though,don't know. It was just the one animation I felt looked a little lacking.
>>343145793
How are you planning on developing this further?
>>343145793
hi banco, do you like meeting new friends?
>>343147863
Four. Colors.
>>343147772
That's a really good idea, I'll be sure to add it.
>>343147895
He cannot reply since he has no mouth
>>343146473
Oh you will get some hate, but ignore thoes edgefags. I've been waiting for 3D platforming to catch on in the indie scene, so this makes me happy. Also nice music!
>>343148062
i refuse to back down on this
>>343148070
>edgefags
OP's character is literally a series of edges and lines.
>character doesn't bop up and down to the beat
shit game
>>343148519
Hes supposed to. I just havent changed the idle speed yet.
his eyes are not aligned
go fix it right now
>>343148751
Don't you fucking dare.
That adds liked sixty adorable points.
Make his arms move in his idle stance too.
Also consider making a system to roll bombs, or throwing them, if you have any puzzles that would take that mechanic in account.
Have his HP meter a square instead of the pac man circle.
Really likable character. Roll with it.
The enemies need to stand out like him. To me if feels like they're not part of the game. Maybe make red squares with 4 nubby feet and no eyes. Give them little mouths with sharp teeth that open and close in 2 key frames of animation. Like the idle pose you have for your main character.
Keep up the good work anon, you can make money from this if you keep going. Good luck
>>343145793
Pretty cool OP, 6/10 will add to backlog.
The fucking wall texture in the first couple rooms is disgusting, looks like brains or some other organic matter. Really disturbs me.
>>343145793
I feel like the environment is really bland and boring. Not really a fan of this weird pixelated look.
Whoever wanted me to add the flip onto his climb, I have it done. will be posting video shortly.
>>343145793
Pretty good stuff
>>343149235
>>343149285
All levels are subject to change.
>>343149408
work on it for a few more years and make a good game instead of this uninspired garbage
>>343145793
where can i pirate this
>>343149660
Not released yet, but you will be able to pirate it as much as you want until the full release is available. http://gamejolt.com/games/blanco/160018
>tfw the 3D platformer genre is deadReally fun looking game though OP. Would play.
>>343149408
I like it aside from my grievances with the level appearance and the pixelated business.
>>343149801
>until
zozzle
I am triggered that the cute little bouncing animation doesn't sync up with the music
>>343150102
Was just about to post this.
If you make the character sync his idle bouncing with each levels music, this game would be 10/10
>>343150102
even if i did, it would desync when he walked and then stopped. in other levels, the environment around him moves with the music
>>343148790
This.
I love his little retard face.
>>343150204
>this game would be 10/10
Let's not go crazy.
>>343150308
10/10
I did not stutter
>>343150219
You can't just make his bouncing state its own thing that constantly updates in the background, but only actually updates visually when he's standing still?
That way whenever he stops he just immediately appears at the bop in tune with the music, and his run state doesn't reset his bops.
>>343150482
I did not accuse you of stuttering, I accused you of going crazy.
cute, op
also pretty impressive work you've got going on
>>343150565
You may think me to be mad
But an idle animation matched with the music makes for a perfect game
What did you use to make this OP?
>>343147252
I was going to post this. The high backflip, side somersault, triple jump, wall-jumping all look like Mario 64 animations.
>>343150676
That would be stupid.
>>343150756
I used Unity3d
>>343145793
Blanco a Cute!
A CUTE!
>>343150827
The game inspired from Super Mario 64
>>343151118
Taking animations isn't inspiration.
Here is a somewhat synced idle animation with the climb animation added.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cahluJjUgk
It takes heavy inspiration from SM64, but damn, Blanco has so much charm. Add some things to differentiate it, and you've got a solid game there.
Be sure to keep us updated on how it's going, I'm really interested. Maybe a blog or something?
theres no option to rebind the bomb button you stupid fuck
>>343151118
They are literally the same animations op
>>343151330
I have a gamejolt page. I might move to Steam if I can come up with the money. http://gamejolt.com/games/blanco/160018
>>343151320
much better
>>343151218
not even who you're talking to, but it's a fucking platformer. what exactly do you expect the character to do if not do different kinds of jumps?
please, go ahead and give the thread all the new and unique styles of jumping you can think of without bolting on retarded powerups like umbrellas or jetpacks.
>>343151118
>inspired
They're literally the same fucking animations, you hack.
>the liked vids on your channel
Might wanna make those private before you go posting it on /v/.
OP are you the same dev with the crabs and shit in the game
>>343151398
They will be changed. As I've said in an indie thread, The animations aren't finished. They use sm64's movement as a placeholder.
>>343146473
if you haven't lurked for 2 years before posting do it.
while you're waiting you should build a speedrunner community for it
>>343151495
>Super Mario 64 invented flipping
Literal retard.
>>343151495
Now that I look at it, the camera system is the same as well.
Loaded up my cartridge to confirm and it is just as janky in turning
Also the stage rendering, movement speed, and enemy AI seem to be the same as well.
>>343145793
Few things:
I noticed the movement similar to mario 64. This isn't a bad thing if you change things sightly. Maybe sure level design utilizes it properly and give players different paths to get to the same goal.
I think a really neat suggestion would be to sync his idle animation with the bpm of the music. Would make it way more adorable in some scenarios.
Make that explosion texture more 2d looking.
I'm seeing a winner here. Just don't make it a puzzle platformer. Give us objectives but let us complete whatever we want in a vast space. Don't stick us in hallways.
>>343151493
>what exactly do you expect the character to do if not do different kinds of jumps?
That's exactly the problem, these aren't different kinds of jumps from SM64. Please read before replying. Animating them differently is inspiration. Modeling exactly is theft.
>>343151552
No. what are you referring to?
>>343150219
Nah there are ways around this. There have been other games that have done this before.
>>343151670
A jump is a fucking jump you daft cunt.
How on god's green fucking earth do you expect OP to make a jump NOT look like a jump?
>>343151650
I don't really want to make an open world kind of thing, but I could do something like that
>>343145793
Not bad OP
>>343151907
>and not make it look like a jump
You're really intent on not reading, aren't you? "A jump" and "the same jump" are different concepts, and nobody but you is talking about "a jump."
>>343151554
Placeholder is fine, but don't say it's inspired by it until you change them. At this point it's SM64 with a different skin.
That being said, I dig the character, music, and idea you're going for.
Got a blog to follow?
>>343151907
The problem isn't the jump itself, it's the animations for said jumps are from another game.
>>343145793
I want more info on this. Got a tumblr or facebook? At least post back once a week with more, I really want this game! I'd buy it!
>>343151998
Nah not open world. Keep it level based, but make you could make it hub style so we can go in whichever direction we want from the start.
>>343151998
I think he's just saying don't make it too linear, give the player some freedom in the levels.
>>343145793
That music sounds familiar, it's a remix of something right?
>>343152041
It looks like "the same jump" because JUMPING looks like JUMPING. It's not a fucking walk cycle. there are not a thousand ways to differentiate a fucking jump. It is literally the character hanging in the fucking air.
Unless you're complaining about what the physics seem to act like, and not the animation, in which case I could maybe see your point- but as it stands you're a stupid retard complaining about the animation which makes no goddamn since, since it looks so fucking rudimentary to begin with I cannot fathom how you'd be able to link it to another game.
>>343145793
when you release on steam, you better include the soundtrack for FREE or make the files some easy format to play like mp3,aac, flac
One thing Mario 64 did that you should keep in mind is the shadow always stayed directly under Mario. That was important for knowing where you would land for jumping. I'd encourage you to do the same for this.
The circular health meter doesn't match with the rest of the games aesthetic, something more blocky would look better.
The ability to zoom out the camera a little would be nice but not required if you design the levels around it.
Music is 9/10, gameplay looks neat, wall jumping may need to be tightened up a bit but overall it looks solid.
Keep it up OP.
>>343151998
I was thinking of doing it like that actually. I wanted the levels to be kind of like mega man where you can choose where to start.
>>343145793
Is this a Mario 64 romhack? The jumping, punching, the slide, and even hurt animations are that of Mario 64.
About the people fighting about the jumps. Im removing the backflip, sideflip, longjump, and triple jump. that way he'll have no relation with mario whatsoever
>>343145793
-You take too many hits, which removes the challenge from the game.
-Way too many elements are straight up copied from SM64, such as every single jump including the crouch jump, and even the health bar having the same style and amount of bars.
-The jump noise gets old pretty fast.
-The world feels too big for such small characters.
-Bombs don't hurt you as well.
Sorry brah, someone had to be a dick. Also I'm pretty sure I heard that song somewhere before, lemme think hard on it.
>>343151554
This isn't using the SM64 engine is it? If it is then this is literally just a re-skin romhack with some test levels.
If it's a whole different engine then you did a suspiciously good job replicating the physics and general behaviour of the SM64 engine.
I feel like there's a lack of momentum when running, and he falls a bit too quickly for my taste.
then again, I haven't played it myself, so I'm basically bitching into the void.
>>343152575
And have literally no real moveset with which to interact with the environment? Way to ruin the entire thing because a couple fucking dandies couldn't handle that multiple games have jumping.
>>343145793
Your music sounds kind of like this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNZ0Dpvx3CA
>>343145793
that's cool op, but don't spend too much time here, you'll get hate, you'll get 95 post of "it's shit" and 5 post of well written critique
>>343152685
He'll still have double jumping, and I've decided to keep side flips and wall jumps. Ill also increase his speed as well
>>343152408
>It looks like "the same jump" because JUMPING looks like JUMPING
Find me three non-Mario games that have the same jump.
>there are not a thousand ways to differentiate a fucking jump
You don't need a thousand, even one would negate my complaint and there is yet to be one in this game. Blowing words out of proportion and willfully ignoring words doesn't change that the animation is ripped.
>>343151907
Explain how the fucking character has the same dive roll move, then. 1:33 on the Demo 1 video.
This shit is a really poor reskin of Mario 64, without the audio. It even uses the same damage animations and life wheel. Fuck, the goddamn bomb uses the same hissing and explosion noises that the fucking bob-ombs use.
>>343145793
Subbed for you OP, I'll be keeping an eye on this. As everyone else has stated, your game heavily borrows from Mario 64, and that's a very dangerous move. I feel the game Axiom Verge suffers from how much it copied Super Metroid because when it comes down to it there was no one one man was going to make a better Metroid game than Super Metroid, and trying to make something so similar only hurt it in the long run. Make sure your game has its own identity. If you want a game with similar level layout and progression go for it, but make mechanics and movement options that are unique to your game because otherwise I'll just be playing a worse Mario 64, and considering Mario 64 is my favorite video game I can guarantee that I will drop your game and tell people that if they want Mario 64 to just play Mario 64. Good luck though, brother, I look forward for what you can bring us.
>>343145793
I'd play this whenever you finish it. The character is cute, I like his idle animation being 2 frames going up & down. It looks like you took inspiration from Super Mario 64 based on his walljumps & dashing forward move, possibly Zelda or Bomberman also for the bombs. The areas are a bit dull but it is a demo after all. The first area reminds me of Mega Man 3 & 5 while the red area reminds me of a classic Mario castle.

I've never heard that song before, but that sounds pretty similar imo
>>343152625
are you the stupidest person on the entire planet? how does this even remotely look like a Mario 64 romhack?
Obviously the entire moveset as a concept is lifted from 64, but the physics, camera, entire graphics layout, momentum, shadows- literally everything looks different and is VERY FUCKING OBVIOUSLY not 64's engine.
I feel like people ITT are the dumbest cunts alive, with so little experience with games that they'd actually believe this to be a romhack. That's like seeing a dumb alien shooter and going "WHOA IS THIS A LEVEL YOU MADE IN HALO'S FORGE MODE?!?!"

>>343152961
>>343152906
the dash and the dive will be removed. nearly all of the relation with mario's moveset has recently been removed
>>343152408
Not the same anon but it's likely that the animation the mario64 jump uses is protected by Nintendo. I get your point about how to make a jump not look like another jump but that's exactly the problem comapnies face. They have to change it in such away to make them their own.
Don't know if it's outright ripped from the original game or it's just similar. If it's ripped from it, Nintendo will step in.
>>343153032
It is very obviously not a romhack you stupid retard. Stop equating a moveset with an entire game engine being reskinned.
>>343152619
>>343152692
Thank you Anon, I knew I remembered that somewhere.

Then why are you showing us the version with mario's moveset?

It's the same engine.
>>343153105
That's good to hear but do try to alter the animations for side flips and the rest, I know this is a demo so nothing I see is final but make the animations make sense for the character. Also, as I'm sure you already know, make sure that Blanco is fun to move around on top of being realistically animated.
>>343151493
negro, while the animations are not the same the physics are the same, even the one when it hits the bars, it's the same motion/physics
>>343153143
>>That damage control
OP's a fraud.
Have your characters appearance reflect his health.
Like have him get more and more red as he takes damage.
As as much of the hud out as possible/
>>343153475
Whoa whoa whoa, dude these physics are crazy different. Blanco turns much easier and seems overall much more loose. That's one of the biggest problems I'm seeing, everything feels so off because I see Mario 64 moves but none of the tight movement that is in that game.
>3D game with "pixel" graphics that aren't even scaled or aligned properly and mishmashed sounds
The gameplay looks fine but good god, please do something different from all the other shitty indie devs. You can keep the blocky style, just don't go shitty pixel shit
>>343153184
>>343153475
>>343153528
I feel like I am talking to fucking monkeys with keyboards right now.
OP obviously took massive inspiration from 64 and lifted the moveset as best he could- but that best is not close enough to be seen as identical by anyone with even half a brain. More importantly, no sane person in the fucking universe would simply edit the 64 engine because FUCKING LOOK AT IT.
Like, apart from the very obvious technical limitations of the entire engine unless you literally change 99% of it- LOOK AT THE VIDEO. It is very fucking obviously NOT the same engine. The OP's comment, in the eyes of anyone who isn't a fucking idiot was obviously talking about stealing the base ideas like Mario's moveset, and then changing them to fit his needs. NOT LIFTING THE ENTIRE ENGINE because that's RETARDED.
I feel like I am taking fucking crazy pills. Have any of you ever looked at a game before EVER? Are you all stupid, or just trying to EBINTRELLLZZZZZZ?
I'm not making an argument for or against the very blatant thief of Mario's moveset and gameplay styling- but to imply that OP literally stole the entire engine is fucking retarded to the very core. Do you have ANY idea how much work would need to be put into the engine to make even the simple modifications present in OP's video? Y'know, how the entire engine looks totally different, how all the graphics are being rendered differently and in a higher quality, how the camera works differently, how the moveset looks like someone TRIED and FAILED at replicating Mario's movement? et cetera, et cetera?
Are you dumb?

But don't act like you know what the fuck you're talking about by going "it's the same engine", when you're clearly talking out of your ass. Even the most casual player of all time would recognize the movements as a cheap imitation of Mario's (AKA not lifted directly or an altered version of the same base), and would recognize the graphics/physics/lighting/literally everything/etc as that of a different engine.

>>343153184
Where the OP openly admits to using the same engine.
You're really trying too hard, man.
>>343145793
Music sounds great, visuals are fine. Walking animation looks a bit jittery though. Probably should change the health circle to something that looks a bit nicer.
Look forward to seeing more of this, OP.

Yes, I am using the SM64HD character engine with heavy modifications. The heavy modifications will give blanco his own character.
>>343145793
did you put the mario 64 jump programming in your game or you make it yourself?

I wish indie devs would stop shilling on an anonymous image board. You fucks have been doing this for 6 years.
>>343154795
See, this fucking proves it, you stupid idiot: >>343154941
SM64HD. HD is the important part there, in case you're as thick as you've come across so far. AKA the unity engine made to try and sort of imitate what SM64 does. Here it is in case you're too fucking daft to use google: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XK9YVC3kla8
It's fucking Unity where someone tried to replicate 64's movement. Just like I said.
The animations are DEFINITELY heavily copying Super Mario 64.
So are some of the sounds. The switch for example sounds a LOT like the one from Super Mario 64, and parts of the beats of the music I recognize from another Mario game, I'm just not sure which.
Most people wouldn't recognize it because the speed and tone are changed, but the beat of the music is the same. It's just small parts of the music, anyways.
Hope you change it OP.
>>343155043
Don't try to post as me anon, If youre really me, post a video of yourself within the editor.
>>343145793
Looks cool. Level design will make or break your game.
>>343155335
It's the same thing you dumb cunt. SM64HD IS UNITY.
The only difference is OP couldn't be assed to fail at replicating 64's movement himself. He had to work off of another person's already shitty imitation of 64's movement.
>I-i'm j-just s-showing my game off guys!
>150+ posts with only 60 unique posters
Yeah ok anon. I'm sure you're not advertising. It's a bummer this is no longer a bannable offense thanks to the new jew leader.

>>343155413
Why are there people pretending to be OP?
>>343155434
The entire thread is about 6 cunts arguing about whether or not he sold just marios moveset, or the entire engine. I don't think it's shilling. Just /v/ being stupid.
>>343155316
If you're wondering what I mean by the music by the way, go to 0:05. Listen to that on 0.5 speed until 0:08.
Trying to remember what game that's from. I KNOW that beat, though.
>all this positive feedback
>cue the autists whose horrible life and self esteem compells them to fling shit on the walls and attack the OP
everytime
>>343155474
What the fuck are you talking about? OP said, verbatim, right above you, that he's using SM64HD. Which is a mod based in Unity made to try and replicate SM64's movement and physics.
AKA it is not based in the SM64 engine as a bunch of stupid bitches claimed it was earlier. It is, as I have continued to say, made in Unity.
Im going to log off /v/, any new posters claiming to be me are false. I will continue to work on the game. stay updated :)
>>343155568
Who attacked OP?
Where is the porn of blanco?
Looks great, OP, but mostly because it looks like Mario. I'd recommend trying to differentiate the backflip animation and bomb pickup sound from it.

Just going to go ahead and reiterate that I won and if you're the person who thought it was made in the SM64 engine, you are, and will always be, a stupid idiot.
