Panda Hell update #10: The wonders and miseries of not having enough time

August 8, 2018 by Gabriel Maldonado

This last week I couldn’t invest much time in Panda Hell (~7h total) however I could move forward a bit in the A* pathfinding implementation , so enemies act smarter. At the moment the script analyzes the terrain that has been generated and sets a layer mask on top which differentiates the terrain in either walkable or non-walkable. You can see here the layer mask and how it differentiates between walkable terrain (grey) and non-walkable terrain (red). While the current […]

Panda Hell update #9: More art and enemy AI using the A* Search algorithm

July 29, 2018 by Gabriel Maldonado

Is Artificial Intelligence week! If I though the complexity of the procedural level generation was quite something, digging deeper into the basic AI development for the enemies has been also quite the endeavor.

While in other type of software you may have a working solution to a problem that’s normally enough to get a prototype rolling, and iterate on customer feedback, with gaming has never been enough, as this will not generate enough traction. With games doesn’t feel like that, feels like what you need is a Minimum Lovable […]

Weekly update Unity 2D shooter #2

June 9, 2018 by Gabriel Maldonado

The game finally reached a point where is fun to play and works nicely overall. At this moment is playable so I’ll be compiling a web version soon, after I added some more niceties to make it easier to understand for people, so it can be play-tested by anyone. Is still far of having all the features I want to integrate in the final prototype, also has had zero time invested in design for the moment, but I’m focusing on […]
