  • This is made to pretty much replicate Rayman 2's guided camera system with some additional features, which is fairly traditional, but used extensively to great effect. It's basic, but is powerful enough (especially with separate time values for each parameter) to create some very cinematic level sequences with multiple chained together.

      Thank you hoodo! I've put a lot of work into the camera, almost more than Rayman himself, since I want to follow the mantra the Rayman 2 devs followed back in the 90's: to make it feel like an action movie. The camera is rarely fully centred on Rayman during movement - rather his trajectory - and these are things I haven't seen done in a game, much less a platformer before. Thanks for your support, and I'm working hard! :)

      Thanks! I hesitate to call it IK because he's limbless, and IK describes how the arms or legs should rotate to get the foot or hand to the right position. I get to skip that part of the math with Rayman lol. But yes I should! It'd take a bit longer to make since I'd need captions for what's going on, which is more than a typical "IK" rig.

    Given how this game would try to be more mature than other parts of the series, what kind of rating do you think it would have as for now? Sorry if it's a weird question, just curious if the E rating remains like in other games or goes slightly higher, I'd understand if you don't know yet.

    • @rayfan9876
      @rayfan9876  3 роки тому +3

      I'd guess T, since it's meant to address a number of teen psychological issues (the passing of time, comprehending death, losing/making friends, feeling understood, anger), with explicit character deaths and a more on-screen representation of child slavery. Since Dark Rayman isn't someone who feels justified in what he does beyond his own mental pain - he isn't deluded or maniacal - there's a greater thematic focus on raw cruelty, how things out of your control might make you feel like you are your own worst nightmare, and the consequences and meaning of it all.

      @@pawenewman138 Yep, I'm planning for that to be a core part of the mechanics. :) I'm taking a lot of inspiration from Assassin's Creed, but as it's a platformer, I'm figuring out how to adapt these relatively static immobile combat systems to something much more agile and flexible, so you can intertwine standard platformer movement with ranged and close-quarter combat as seamlessly as possible. I'm still trying to figure out how the combat system will work, but given the amount of thought I've put towards it so far, I hope it'll feel wonderful in the end! I want combat to be as central to this game as it was to Rayman 3, combined with the cinematic platforming sequences of Rayman 2.
      Imagine swinging off purple lums with one hand while nailing enemies with the other ~ that's what I'm going for. :) I've worked on it this long, I know how to do it, and I won't rest until I've made it happen.

Your movement speed is roughly halved when ducking, aiding this a lot.
