Discover the power of emergent gameplay! Learn how to craft compelling games where simple elements play beautifully off each other, creating a cohesive system. #GameDesignSummit 2024 is coming to Cracow on 19-20th of May! 🎫 https://lnkd.in/d_hhv75i Throughout the workshop with a video game industry professional, you’ll learn: 🎮 Decision spaces, the emergent gameplay spectrum, and game loops in the context of cognitive load. 🎮 Approaches to designing systems to foster emergent gameplay 🎮 The power of systems and context in supporting the player's expression and the core game fantasy Can’t wait! #DigitalDragons

Getting Started: How to Play LittleQ Tap to Attack: The core gameplay of LittleQ is straightforward yet engaging. Players attack by tapping the screen. The faster you tap, the more damage you inflict on the monsters. This simple mechanic makes the game highly accessible and fun.

In my recent one-week game project inspired by Berlin, "Ich brauche den Pfandbon!", I set out to gamify the action of collecting beer containers for deposit returns. Although a 2D point-and-click game, the project features an immersive level selection system, inspired by Google Street View. Despite being quite an ambitious idea for a week, I managed to make it work and I love how it gives the game a lot of character through its cohesive gameplay experience. You can check out my game here: https://lnkd.in/dx2xDXtq Let me know how many bottles you can collect in one level and have fun playing! Here's a little sneak peek into the gameplay:

Day 27: Exploring Alternative Control Methods 🚀 Hey LinkedIn! Day 27 of my game development journey involved experimenting with different methods for setting up player controls. 🎮 What I Did Today: New Control Methods: Learned various methods for setting up player controls in Unreal Engine. Implementation: Applied these methods to my new character, enhancing the gameplay experience.

As a life long Counter-Strike player, I was unsure how one could add a twist to tactical shooters that hasn't been done. Glad I was wrong. Mountaintop Studios Spectre Divide is a 3v3 tactical shooter featuring a unique "Duality" system where each player controls two bodies, allowing for innovative strategies and more active gameplay. The game combines classic attacker/defender bombsite mechanics with gunplay that features deterministic spray patterns/predictive recoil, and equipment sets, all while focusing on skill over abilities. The game will emphasize regular community competition through "Crews," allowing players to lead teams, climb rankings, and build a legacy in the game's competitive environment. Looking forward in taking part of the playtest.

Task 2 :> Number Guessing Game🔢 The Objective of this project is to design and develop a number guessing game in which players attempt to guess a randomly generated number within a specified range.The game provides users with feedback about their guesses each time by altering the range of numbers. #oasisinfobyte

More accuracy, less guesswork. Isn’t that what we’re all striving for? Quality of Outcome (QoO) captures what traditional network metrics miss. We ran a study on Call of Duty to see how small network delays affect performance. The key takeaway? Even minor delays noticeably impact gameplay, and traditional metrics like latency and jitter fall short, failing to capture the full spectrum of what users endure.

3 key essentials to create a better indie game. Consider these important aspects and try to master them: • Define your Core Gameplay Loop and make it as engaging as possible. • Prototype and test your ideas fast then refine and repeat. • Always look at things from the player's perspective. Understanding these will lead to a more compelling game. P.S. What are your thoughts? Did I miss another important thing? P.P.S Did you get the picture? 😂 #indiedev
