Making this trailer NEARLY KILLED ME! Please watch it to make my suffering worthwhile. (×﹏×)

Day 1: “Ah, Unreal Sequencer is so cool! I can do so much stuff!”

Day 7: *writing my own eulogy...*

This is the first proper trailer I've ever made and I’m really happy with how it turned out. Hope you guys enjoy it!

Is this too easy to see?

We're testing a chameleon ability in our party brawler game, Skewer'd. If you have the ability and stop moving for half a second it grabs the nearest color to you and you disappear. It's super fun and pairs really well with climbing, makes you feel like an actual chameleon.

We're trying to fine tune it though cause it still feels a little off (I die a lot trying to find good hiding spots). Our aesthetic is very cartoony so unless you have an awesome hiding spot you can really stand out.

Any ideas on how we can push this?

Pushing on our lobby, what is it missing?

Howdy! We're a two-person team building Skewer'd, a chaotic spear-fighting party game.

Let me tell ya... UI and menus have been my own personal hell for the last few months. 😅 Rive + UMG has definitely been a learning experience, but I finally feel like it's starting to come together.

Our goal is for someone to boot up the game and think, "Huh... this feels way more polished than I expected."

The UI is still the biggest work in progress, but I'd love some brutally honest feedback. What would you change to make this lobby feel more finished? Better camera work? Different environments? Character poses? Animations? Colors? UI? Anything that jumps out at you.

Also we need play-testers! Discord | Steam

Javelin cosmetics are weirdly hard! I need ideas!

I'm working on Skewer'd, a silly party battle game and I need help coming up with a bunch of fun Javelin cosmetics! These will be rewards for various achievements, like spearing two players at once, triple kill, from the grave and so on.
