Working on some character designs for Neofeud 2. :)

Glad you're enjoying Neofeud xandmatt, and thanks for getting it as well as reporting the bug! Will look into that for a future update.

The brave new hyper-automated cyberpunk dystopia of Neofeud 2 is better than 2019 because at least it's more stylish!



Some of my latest work on Neofeud 2. I'm experimenting with different transparent material types as well as new gameplay elements like facial rec and other biometric surveillance. Neofeud 1 is also on sale for a couple more days!

So much awesomeness going on in that gif! That guy being terrible at darts is a nice touch as well!

Damn I need to get you on the Silver Spook podcast again in the near future before release of Guard Duty!

Yes, you will have guessed right! :) I try to make everything have a deeper meaning or significance in the games and writing... which is why it can take quite some time!

Here's the latest work on Neofeud, illustrating liquid crystal hallucination in a cyberpunk dystopia of interlinked cells. :)



Also just a reminder that Neofeud is still on sale! Get one for that special adventure game and cyberpunk-loving someone. :)



"A cyberpunk materpiece"It's been too long since I've played a game with this much soul in it" -Steam Reviewers

Also recently Neofeud got mentioned in a "Choose your top 10 games of all time" thing everyone was doing, which is pretty neat.

Steamshovelers also commented:
"Neofeud is such a powerful game and knowing it draws from personal experiences as well as broader national discussions makes it more so

It's difficult to play for all the right reasons and makes players question and reevaluate their places of power and privilege"

(Here's a link to that Tweet)

If you have a moment to give Neofeud even a short review on Steam I would greatly appreciate it!

Lookin' fantastic man! This is giving me nostalgia waves, going to have to go replay Primordia again.

Developers can arrange their own sales every so often, but there are also store-wide sales set by Steam. Those are like the Summer Sale, Winter, Fall, etc.

Neofeud is on sale this week! If you can't wait for Beyond a Steel Sky and are jonesing for a cyberpunk adventure right now, have a look! :) "The works of William Gibson, games like Deus Ex were the building blocks that create the world of Neofeud...

If you'd like to help me finish Neofeud 2, I am supporting development of it entirely with sales of Neofeud 1 right now. :) Here's one of the latest scenes from Neofeud 2, which I'm trying to make even better than the first:

General Discussion / Re: Steam Trading Cards

Interesting, I actually heard some fellow devs say they're a huge revenue source. Some kickstarter backers even adamantly demanded including the cards.

When Neofeud released in 2017, Steam had limited most new games without massive user bases from adding trading cards, I think due to misuse. I didn't even have the option in my Steamworks developer account at the time.

But I just recently noticed that I'm now able to create cards for Neofeud, so yay! I actually made a just-for-fun 'Blackjack 21' card game with Neofeud art already, for playing aruond in the Silver Spook livestreams. So I think it won't be too difficult to get the art into Steam Card format.

Thanks a lot Blondbraid and Retro Wolf!

RW: Yeah, I might go back and add a few more details like those if there's some time. And yes, I'm glad you noticed the gun swinging - that one took me the longest to figure out how to wrap my head around!

General Discussion / Steam Trading Cards
Sun 24/03/2019 06:59:05
I ask cause I haven't personally done it much, but I hear that Steam trading cards are fairly popular, and I was considering adding them to my game (Neofeud) Steam options.

Thanks for your input!
#92
Best of luck to you guys!

The Quiet Game is still one of my favorite games made in AGS. :)

Working on some new animations for some new Neofeud 2 characters. :) Haven't tried doing one of these 'walking with gun down' style anims before so it was a bit more time consuming but a good learning experience.



Robot cops FTW XD

Zooming in on more of that cyberpunk city street. Working on flying cars, holograms, and trying to hone my volumetric lighting painting techniques. :)

I loved Amy in Shardlight! Also Clarity was awesome and one of my favorites from Primordia.
#96
Cool thanks!

One last thing, somewhat related: is there a way to stop GUIs from greying out when a blocking function is happening? I think I figured out a way to get this to work but it just looks weird when the GUI turns grey.
#97
I'll take a look.

Is there a way to just make like a scrolling text box? Like the way that you can scroll through list boxes, but not as a list?
#98
I'm trying to make news articles viewable on an in-game phone, which has text lengths in the thousands of characters.
What's the best way to get those strings into the game? I know the max length of lines is 500 chars so I'm guessing appending it that way.

Ideally I'm also trying to get the text to scroll smoothly like in an actual smartphone. I was just considering rendering the entire news article text as an image to do that.

Latest scene I'm working on for my cyberpunk adventure Neofeud 2!

Dystopian Cyberpunk Coffin apartments... I mean, "Minimalist Residential Inhabitations! Cool, trendy, chic microhomes for the modern urban citizen!" :D

In the latest stream I worked on connecting this external area to the actual coffin apartment from the previous post.

(Even larger version of that image)
