Hi everyone! I received some more feedback yesterday—thanks to the reasonable people who left comments with constructive criticism.

I read everything, even if I didn't reply to you.

Topic: I'm trying to choose a new character design that people will like. Here’s what’s been done so far (last changes):

1. Many people mentioned liking long hair, so I added that option. You can choose to keep it or remove it for any pose (need to polish).

2. The breasts were bouncing too much—I checked some references;) and toned down the amplitude of the movement.

There’s also a version where they don’t move at all (though I find that one boring, not because I’m obsessed with boobs, but simply because it looks a bit empty without the movement).

The animations aren't polished yet. And, oh! I just realized I forgot to add the shell casings)

That’s about it. Thanks everyone, and a shout-out to the people who specifically visited my sub just to downvote all my posts; watching that was actually pretty funny))

You play as a customs officer stationed on a remote asteroid outpost, inspecting alien travelers arriving from every corner of the galaxy. Your job is to compare documents, faces, ships, license plates, and cargo to catch smugglers, terrorists, and impostors before they can reach your home planet.

As your shift goes on, the inspections become more complicated... and reality itself starts feeling less reliable. By the end of the day, it's hard to tell whether you're chasing a criminal or just another bizarre alien species. And if you're really not sure, your employer has conveniently issued you a shotgun.

It's basically our attempt to blend Papers, Please, "spot the difference" gameplay, and dark sci-fi comedy into what might be the worst border control job in the galaxy.

Been working on this game for the past week and its starting to come together, but now I need an outside perspective on things.

Is there anything I could change/add to make my game more interesting? My plan for this game is a rage game that simulates a roguelike in a way. You get to the top as fast as you can with all your lives, if you lose them all, you lose. If you lose all your lives before you reach the top, you will still get a score based on how high you've gotten in that time.

This is my second ever project I've ever gotten this far in so please be nice ;-;

(PS. I'm also looking for a pixel artist. LMK if you are interested!)

This game is still in development and I would really like if I get any feedback about game design, art or music. Right now I am putting the alpha source code on github so if anyone would like to play it, access the link in the title.

Does this combat look fun or does it need more impact?

Please give me some ideas guys!

I am thinking of adding skill/ attack animations next - which is going to be a huge task as i need around 250 x 3 total animations. I will probably build a custom animation effect system or use Godot's Particle System instead of sprite based animations.

I have been working on this game for over 4 years. I have programmed, created claymation, backdrops and puppetry for my multimedia video game, which comes out in less than 3 days! 🥰🥰

There are still some issues to solve, but I believe it is worth sharing! Thanks!

What genre would you say the game is seeing this? I'm going for arena brawler/battle royale-ish.

Made on 320x180 canvas.

Yep, my game is about delivering packages but with lots of style 😎🎸🔥

I've been working on this game for a few months now, and I'm making progress on the second major area of the game.

I tried to create a striking opening to the area to impress the player and make them feel overwhelmed by the sheer size of the landscape and then by the massive creature at its center.

I'm really happy with it, but if you have any suggestions on how to improve it even more, I'd love to hear them.

1. The skill stuns enemies for 3 seconds, allowing you to finish them off. 2. The skill launches enemies into the air, allowing you to finish them off (offers less crowd control but looks more spectacular)—this is the new version.

This is Game Maker and so unfortunately, I was unable to give it the proper flair for this post but that's ok
