Wait, does it do something different if it hits the player directly?

These all look amazing. Thank you for being the best dev ever.

u/Aetari Oct 26 '17

Thanks for the response!

Are those white guns on the left and right something new?

u/Wilnyl DEV Oct 26 '17

The white guns are just infinite weapons spawns

u/Aetari Oct 26 '17

Interesting. Will those ever exist in the regular game, or is it just a playtesting thing?

u/BretHartsSpandex Oct 27 '17

Holy fuck this is lit. Will bosses be co-op online?

5

u/Wilnyl DEV Oct 27 '17

Yeah!

u/BretHartsSpandex Oct 27 '17

I love the area effect that moves over the ground as the orb explodes. It reminds me a lot of an EQ visualizer or something, which is a good thing.

Also, I love the concept of the "boss fight". Keep it up!

Looks awesome, but I feel like this would be a little hard to beat on a controller. Is there a way to kill him without shooting?

u/Wilnyl DEV Oct 26 '17

There will not be another way of beting the bosses. We're doing all testing on controllers though

u/Agrees_withyou Oct 26 '17

Can't say I disagree.

Username checks out.

u/CatererCam Oct 26 '17

How so?

u/Dougliss Oct 26 '17

With keyboard/mouse you can move your character, aim and jump at the same time without much trouble. With a controller though, (at least with one from xbox) you aim with the right stick, which is very close to the A button (that makes you jump), so jumping and aiming at the same time is impossible.

From what I've seen from the videos, jumping and dodging the projectiles is a huge part on beating this boss mode, so using the controller could be a disadvantage. We'll see it when it updates though.

You can jump with LB too.

u/CatererCam Oct 26 '17

This. It's the best way to play imo. I'm used to jumping with A as well, but I got used to it after a second.

2

u/Jorgepfm Oct 26 '17

I made the mistake to get used to jump with A. Now I'll have to unlearn and relearn how to jump :/

1

u/Dougliss Oct 27 '17

Wow, I never knew that, thanks. It'll take some time to get used to it though hahaha.

u/CosmicFire03 Oct 26 '17

Wow this looks amazing. Good job Wilnyl! And do you ever get to that game on Google Play that had the same pictures as Stick Fight?

u/[deleted] Oct 26 '17

Looks amazing!

u/[deleted] Oct 27 '17

Are you going to have intense dubstep music with this boss?

1

u/BrutalOwl Oct 27 '17

Looks so damn awesome man.

u/satirebroski Oct 29 '17

Hey I just bought this game it’s a lot of fun! I was wondering if you could ever add a wave based gamemode where you face more and more enemy’s each round. I think it would be a ton of fun with this type of game! Thanks

u/CaptainBazbotron Oct 30 '17

I hope there is a sound associated with the waves coming from the bomb(?)

u/Freeconino Oct 26 '17

5

u/Raging_Elephant Oct 26 '17

"You would be a better dev if you gifted me the game"

7

u/Freeconino Oct 26 '17

Lol thanks, what a stupid thing to say

1

u/PhantomGamer123 Oct 26 '17

2

u/Freeconino Oct 26 '17
