I don`t think the zoom is too much , I feel it`s because of the latter

From what i can see, it looks alright, i think it might be the how sudden the zoom in was. Question though, is the zoom in programmed to the mouse wheel?

babachoo.bsky.social•125 days ago

Yes it is. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?

galathehermit.bsky.social•125 days ago

Nope, a lot of games use it unless i'm just out of touch lol.
I was thinking perhaps you could find a way to set a limit to how far it zooms in somewhere in the code? Or maybe have a way to slow down the zoom in some way so that it does not feel too overwhelming?

babachoo.bsky.social•125 days ago

Yeah, maybe turning down the sensitivity a bit or something. It's even more jarring than this when you're playing it on fullscreen, lol.

galathehermit.bsky.social•125 days ago

Best way to tackle it id say, hope you get to fix it with relative ease. Cause so far it looks grand!

Looks good to me!

I always like being able to zoom in and see all the little details in the characters and animations. Speaking of, the little bomber goblin's bracing after tossing the bomb is precious lol!

babachoo.bsky.social•128 days ago

Thanks, lol. I have an alternative animation that involves a big box of bombs behind him. He jumps up and reaches into the box with his feet wiggling in the air, but I thought that might be a bit much lol. Might implement it someday tho. Who knows, lol.

Lol that sounds adorable! With all the units on screen I agree it might be too much... But maybe you could include a sort of gallery to showcase unused/alternate art and stuff.

Seems good to me! :)
Also is it weird that I find this kinda cute? I just wanna give that little guy a kiss on his shiny big bald head. <3

babachoo.bsky.social•128 days ago

They're meant to be cute, so I must be doing something right! Lol. Thank you!

That seems like a pretty comfortable amount! I'm blind, so I always want to zoom in as much as possible in games though! 😆

quadalius.bsky.social•128 days ago

The zoom itself seems reasonable to me!

All the better to get a feel for the field of battle (and the little details on everyone therupon)!

That said, having an option to handle the speed of camera movement while zoomed in would be nice. I think it's a tad too fast in this.

It seems appropriate given the circumstance. If enemies are bunched together like that it helps to be able to zoom in and see exactly what’s going on.

babachoo.bsky.social•128 days ago

Yeah, I think zooming in all the way will be the norm going forward for posting content on social media. On fullscreen it's way too much, but it works pretty ideally for content.
