BRUCE LEE

Bruce Lee was an amazing man.

Really leads me to wonder, if he played my Bruce Lee game, would he be flattered or embarrassed?

So far in the development I'm doing GREAT making it very fun to play, making this game one of the most rewarding experiences ever.

But I'm at a loss on how to actually capture the essence of Bruce Lee. The power, the agility, the fluid combos, all of that. I need to get all of that translated into a few keys for the player- that the player can understand and use intuitively. I have a great fight system here, but it definitely needs work.

I need ideas here.

Also, a bit on the car physics of this game. I think they're great, while other people say that instead of decreasing sensitivity at higher speeds, they want it INCREASED. Now, the physics are supposed to have a semi-realistic feel to them, with basic things like "don't brake and turn at the same time," "don't mash the throttle during a turn," etc. I have no clue what they mean when they want to be able to turn 90 degrees at 90 miles an hour. Either my driving and some racing experience is all wrong or I'm not really getting what these weirdos mean.

And if this was supposed to overglorify my game…well, it was.

Surely you can give us more information than that? Make sure you can hand brake turn.

I have a handbrake functionality in already, Perhaps you should check out my page in the WIP section. The game's in there as "Bruce Lee." It has quite a bit of information all about it.

first blog, too. kinda testing waters.

Chuck Norris is the original.

@Hand-brake-turns.., they arn't really handbreak turns, you can't slide, or drift, it just.., makes you go slower.

Also, I'm fairly sure BL didn't bouce off walls, what code are you using for the collisions, move_bounce_solid?

Apart from that, a reasonably enjoyabe engine test.

Phazon_Yoshi, are you absolutely sure about that? You're pressing space for the handbrake, correct?

Because I can drift and slide very well.

Also, I have the collisions fixed now. I just have to touch 'em up for the morph ball now, but Bruce no longer bounces.
