Subs 2 - Dive Dive Dive!

@SteveZX81 What are those cargo ships carrying?
-
I've no idea. (actually they are supposed to be tankers but I can't draw. lol)
-
Can they shoot back?
-
Tankers cannot but other ships will be able to attack you and also aircraft will drop depthcharges etc.
-
@SteveZX81 Sink one for me.
-
Working on the ship sinking animations right now.
This is barely worth mentioning tbh but I'm using it as an excuse to post so I can give a huge "Thank You!" to Pianofire and Martin for helping me with a problem that drove me batty! (I still actually don't know what the problem was, but it's working now so all is well).
Thanks guys!
-
Small update:
all ships now sink when hit (including the hospital ship ..but there is a penalty)
score added
ships sunk added
torpedos left display added -
Amazing! Such lovely animations and all the added details are great! :D

And that made mine, haha! Thank you :) Seriously well done though, this is incredible!

@SteveZX81 Looking good. The texture on the sea is a good idea. Is it cloud shadows? I think that reflections of some sort would be quite easy to implement here but the effect might not be compatible with the intended style.
-
Thanks.
The sea texture is the same as the one used for the clouds but given a green/blue tint.tbh I'm not 100% happy with it, I feel it doesn't really match up with the rest of my graphics (it's too good lol!) so I am considering replacing the clouds and sea with simple colour gradients instead. we'll see.
-
That's looking great @SteveZX81
I've also made a mental note to check the volume of my laptop before clicking links in future!! That beep almost hurt given the laptop was on full volume (blame video conferencing for that and people that don't know how to turn up their mic levels)
-
oh heck, I'm sorry about that.

Why? Did you turn my volume up :D

-
Love it Steve. Simple, minimal but very cool and effective. Oh and it's 1337 hours exactly that you get the champagne.
-
That title screen is excellent - consistent with the style of the gameplay so it has a very distinctive feel.
My hours are 165, making it my most-played title by a clear margin! -
Little update video.
Additions:
Ship type 4 drops depthcharges
depthcharges rotate and drop
boat hit effect when one reaches the bottom of the screen
damage control panel added
random section damaged when a depthcharge detonates.
depthcharges are red and flash on the radar
sound effect added when you 'rotate' periscopeI'm not sure how loud the sound is, so beware!
-
Small update (although it was a royal pain to get working)
1: Depthcharges only damage your boat if they are within the red danger zone on the minimap (not sure you can see it well on the twitter video) (as suggested by Martin)
2: random cracks added sometimes when you are hit. ..I'm not 100% sure about this, we'll see.
