Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

We also played with locked and non-rotating camera and i have to admit locked camera is crazy :D I've been thinking of including gameplay menu to options so player could change gameplay settings like this: -Camera rotation: On/Off -Camera zoom level: Slider -Minimap: On/Off Other stuff? Suggestions?...

Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

We actually just published the game on Android in Finland, Germany and New Zealand so if your'e located in one of these countries please download the game and tell us what you think about it. The game is in limited distribution before the actual launch so we can improve and iterate it further and al...

Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

Yeah I agree that the physics are different, but things like stretching suspension and endless friction with wheels combined with level design that allows skill to be involved makes it fun and addicting. There are stuff that has been dropped to make it more friendly to new players, but out of all th...

Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

We had some gestures actually implemented and the code should be easy to bring back. Buttons and gestures sure have pros&cons and I think we are doing some testing with them after we release the game. And sure need to write up those ideas :) The difficulty on the first map-packs will be quite ea...

Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

Thanks for the tip, I have to check out that game! :) I agree on that the controls should be really precise and easy to use for the player! It's easy for me to hit the right keys without looking with my ipad mini since i've been playing it so much, but we have gotten a lot feedback that they are too...

Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

Yeah I hope that even original elma players could like it, but of course its not a exact copy of the real deal and physics are from unity engine. There will be alot interesting and even new stuff in the game when its ready. And not sure which one, but beach/jungle/city will be the second theme in le...

Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

We have spent a lot of time trying to come up with the best possible driving experience. There's no bounciness at all in the wheels and friction with terrain is infinite. This gives pretty much same kind of feeling as in elasto mania. What comes to suspension, tweaking spring forces and damping grea...

Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

Wow, doesn't seem too bad. There seems to be some apple that rotates the camera view? Seems very strange for an elma player, but I guess the games don't need to exactly alike :p Yeah the green apples are gravity apples and they change the gravity of the bike as well as rotate the camera. Oh wtf, ho...

Beside the wobbliness, a key difference is free rotation vs volts.
Oh totally forgot about that video, I actually put it there on my own utube account when we didn't have a new channel yet. It's the same game :)

Re: Moped mania - keeping the feel

We did test elma style volting, but free rotate seemed to fit better on the tablets, it's just easier. It could be added as an option though. physics are not exactly like elmas, there are differences and similarities but there have been alot refining and testing. Camera has actually seen some upgrad...
