Devlog, couch multiplayer
Added 2023-01-08 11:26:02 +0000 UTCLet's do a game I can show to my mom UwU
Big idea
Basically you share a screen with up to 4 players, and your little squad can drive, improve, repair, a oddly shaped tank!
Will you be the driver, a gunner, a mechanic? Who cares you can exchange places whenever you want, it's a matter of human skills and communication X)
The main features will be:
- drive a walking tank to beat the level
- shared screen, from 1 to 4 players
- add machines to enhance it: weapons, storages, engines, radar, etc
- explore the map to collect resources and blueprints
- grid based building (mechanics around space management)
- fight swarms of evil machines (there's a pun to do with AI prompters I bet)
- the more player, the bigger threats you can handle
I will try to make a very rough prototype for you to try and enjoy. And if it's fun and has potential, I may make this one into my very next big game. Who knows UwU
More
Among the next features I could think of:
- multiplayer branching dialogues ( I love this idea)
- vehicles with odd grids for harder space management (like L, U or a big O)
- large levels with enter/exit, level design alternating exploration and battles
- upgrade machines
- bullet hell enemies, bosses
Comments
It reminds me of the car in Mario Party 9 and 10. Very neat idea
