Quote from: guest on 03/11/2015, 09:00 PMHow is the hitbox on the main character? I'm always concerned when the player sprite is large in a shooter, because it can greatly complicate dodging (dodgery?).
When I play old-school shooters with a large main character I always find myself wishing that they had had the foresight to reduce the size of their hitbox. Not quite bullet-hell small but just small enough to skillfully weave in and out of enemy traffic.

I gotta agree, I feel that the hit box should be smaller then the character, big hitboxes always feel cheap to me.

OldRover · 03/12/2015, 08:17 PM

The player hitbox is considerably smaller than their sprite. Additionally, your characters can move around the screen pretty quickly, and the donut powerup will let you move around even faster.

Donuts do not move swiftly.

ParanoiaDragon · 03/13/2015, 12:36 AM

Nor do donuts make you move around swiftly!!

OldRover · 03/13/2015, 02:23 AM

...in a game where four women fly around on broomsticks and shoot elemental bolts at hookah-smoking, fez-wearing camels who sit on magic carpets, I'm sure the hardest thing to believe is that donuts make you move faster...

seieienbu · 03/13/2015, 03:21 AM

I dunno, donuts usually slow me way down...

Glazed donuts = speed-up

The science is solid.

Yeah, it's a temporary effect though - remember John Belushi's secret ?

Looks really nice Old Rover. Looking forward to seeing a video of it soon. : )

Just a curiosity, Rover...are the dev forums for this still active? I log in periodically to check on the testing stuff, but noone ever seems to be around

Everyone is playing Evolve. That's why no one seems to be around.

Your signature makes me want to see Fray and Lilia go at it.

How about sfx, always in adpcm or have been squirelized ??

OldRover · 04/06/2015, 12:13 AM

SFX are both ADPCM and PSG. It does not use Squirrel. At present, I only use Squirrel in one project, which is Eternal Silence.

touko · 04/07/2015, 07:55 AM

ok thanks .
Good to see that sfx are not limited to adpcm only ..

Elder · 05/10/2015, 09:23 AM

I can't wait for this

VestCunt · 09/18/2015, 02:40 PM

Going to keep bumping this

VestCunt · 12/17/2015, 02:38 PM

Is this still a thing? It's fine if it's just going to take a while (I waited ten years for Mysterious Song), but there should either be updates or preorders should be refunded.

OldRover · 12/17/2015, 03:12 PM

It's still a thing... there's just not much to update people with, as I have very little new to show without giving too much away.

Want to keep at least *some* of the game a fresh surprise...

mrhaboobi · 12/17/2015, 03:32 PM

any idea of rough ETA around when it may come out? im pretty sure i pre ordered eons ago

so just wanting for it to arrive

Mathius · 12/17/2015, 09:36 PM

If you need to put someone here in charge of PR to keep info coming out to the fans I'm sure there would be plenty of volunteers.

Thank you

I know it will be worth the wait...and I concur: no more spoilers

roflmao · 12/20/2015, 02:19 PM

An ETA sure would be nice. 1 month? 1 year? 10 years?

I can tell you this:

< decade, guaranteed.

OldRover · 12/20/2015, 08:11 PM

It will be 2016, that is assured... and unfortunately, is the only thing that is assured.

incrediblehark · 01/11/2016, 12:41 AM

Glad to hear this game is still happening! I cant remember how long it was since preorders.

Psycho Punch · 01/15/2016, 11:44 PM

OldRover · 05/07/2016, 07:48 PM

Been awhile since I had anything new to report on this, but now I do... with the addition of Sarumaru to our art staff, things have started to move forward again.

esteban · 05/07/2016, 07:59 PM

Hmmmm, how can I put my feeling into words?

...

...

SPLENDID.

Motherf@cking splendid.

TheClash603 · 05/08/2016, 01:58 AM

My most anticipated game, looks awesome.

HailingTheThings · 05/08/2016, 04:24 AM

seieienbu · 05/08/2016, 04:47 AM

I like how Saru draws eyes.

I'm also quite glad to hear this is moving forward.

We had Lucretia on display for a short while at Lvl Up Expo... and it was beating people like a bitch. It may be too hard a game for the commoner.

You'll have to put in "collectard mode" ...but don't let that mode have access to the last _____ stage(s)...or last boss...

That's a fair compromise.

ToyMachine78 · 05/16/2016, 09:44 AM

This needs to include a cover of Megadeths Lucretia

OldRover · 05/23/2016, 01:06 AM

We have some forward progress!

New character portraits... a small step towards completion but a step nonetheless.

I recommend changing the title of the game to incorporate the word MILF.
