[Prototype] Codename - No-Name

iPixelPierre

Hey all,

Just thought I'd put this here for people to see. It's a small prototype of the lighting effects I would like to use in my game.
Just thought I could get some feedback and perhaps thoughts on if you think this effect is over saturated in games now days?

Shot a lot.

Oooh nifty - I love that effect.

I don't think it's too over used, though? I've only really seen it in Monaco:



It's also really important what style of game you're using the effect for too - I find it's too overwhelming in Monaco.

Is is also a stealth game?

What you develop that demo in out of interest?

Looks really cool, coincidentally I'm also sort of working on a 2D lighting/shadow thing, although yours actually looks good :P

I haven't played Monaco (looks really pretty though :O) but I think the only place I've seen 2D lighting that isn't just for prettyfication is in Stealth Bastard.

I'm a fan of games that use that kind of lighting/line of sight for some functional purpose (and even when there isn't a purpose...I guess lighting just looks pretty in general) so I'd be interested to see this game you're working on.

Why was the link removed? :s

It was just a prototype of volumetric lighting. The project I'm actually developing isn’t ready for public yet, but as soon as it is it will be on this forum as a WIP.

All my current project has is:
1. A player
2. Enemies
3. Procedural map generation

What you can do:
Run around shooting enemies (that do nothing except disappear after 4 hits).

So fun. Much wow. Very post. Now :D
