The Metal Revolution - WIP

Made some components for a Customisation scene. 

(You will have access to more colours)

CPU player is getting another rework, still not happy with it...

Pulled the download while I check on a performance issue.

Re did the AI and made it soft reset itself. - still preAlpha and i shouldnt be distributing this early.

No where near finished. I wouldnt wast my time downloading it just now. but it was nice to see how easy it is to publish.

Did a whole bunch of work on it today/yesterday; well the whole week I've been tinkering but there has been some improvements all around. To name a few. Better shaped top, Classic Arena, new particle effect. Chasing and Pushing. As well as a whole bunch of behind the scenes; Including a self instance of particle effects (helps the inspector look tidy) but more importantly: The using the Dot product of Vectors to change the directions of inputs to better suit the stadium surface

If anyone is following on here, I am still working on it. Ive just fallen out with my 3D model. Im trying to get a general shape that I am happy with. Almost there

attack button square now does "chip damage" and holding it will do a "smash attack".

Tops fly further when they are on lower heath. making stadium outs more common than destruction. (this is a good thing)

put in defending (needs some work)

In the near future we'll have dodging, chasing, CPU control.

I bought the art assets of humble bundle, it had sounds and a toon shader.
I had a little play with the new UPR. Looks good. I must get on with making the other buttons work. as a game its dull but as a spectacle its alright to look at.

He charges a lot, my first crack at an "AI".

Its just because he doesnt have many choices. Its get energy to chargeor charge at the movement. once light-attack, block and dodge are in he'll be charging less.

The game is in a playable state. yay?

Day 3: I'm probably going to stop counting days.
21/09/22 -

Left analogue stick now has control over top movement.
Its a little sluggish but i'll sort that out in a bit.

hands of the controls, returns the top to center.

Holding X down now moves you to center with a little more urgency, this will also be attached to a energy regain mechanic.

Happy accident. holding X while riding up the wall will jump the top away from the wall... only to fall to the bottom basin for it to accelerate again towards the goal. Looks pretty cool, I need to clamp the speed, for now makes me smile.

Lean/tilt of the top, mimics the demo and the "source material". Disregarding gyroscopic forces and instead having your top wiz round leaning out of the banks.
