listening to godot stuff on the side and i've just about had it with trees and their children

haha i guess i was excited about doing art for this game because dozens of characters later, i looked up and suddenly realized it was midnight.

i'm going for a few more approachable RPG-esque designs, but others which are drawn from specific occult and art history references.

i understand. i'm a little worried i'm already going to be pushed out by people who can visit the marathon ship map when it opens up. i'm not very good at the early maps at all, so i might have to just watch others do it

i think that's probably okay. i feel like i lose all of my stuff every two or three runs anyway...

i logged in just to see the mechanic. it’s pretty and seems kind of all-around fun

more MARATHON. it's so, so tense, constantly tense. we were pinged by an enemy radar through a wall and heard footsteps, then silence. we waited for them in a closed room, breathing heavy... nothing. escaped through vents somehow already broken open. there, in the rain, their dead bodies ... ... ...

i don't know what to do...! if i don't play it it'll be the first league i've never played on launch, and it looks pretty good...! but i don't think i have the time, probably!

if you see me don't shoot
i will be shooting, though

interpolation glitch

There it is.

After thinking about it all night, I woke up and fixed the crashes within 30 minutes. Lucky, because I'm crazy nauseous today. At least there's just a few more things to resolve and then I can get back to the interesting stuff.

we ended the demo period by getting totally wiped by a group of kitted out bloodthirsty mongrels. i’m so excited for the full release. i didn’t see even half of the guns and i’m interested in the story and cosmetics and that kind of thing

Now is a good place to stop, since I’m not as frustrated. I hope I can resolve it by tomorrow night.

I implemented a failsafe sort of script to allow me to see what's causing the game to crash by isolating it directly. Now I can see what's going on. Unfortunately, the crash only appears rarely, so I have to run the game multiple times to look for it whenever I change part of the script.

Agh...

Now it's not remotely working, but I feel like I'm closer to the answer.

- I would like the lobby and "ready up" screen to be more... not diegetic, but... I like the area in the Mielgo short, with the chair...
- Sometimes there's a bug where hit markers and the skull icon are not displayed.
- Give me lady Destroyer and lady Assassin, please!

- I also think exfil dematerializing should be more abrupt and we shouldn't see the beam going up. I think there should be a cool blue and black screen like the loading screen that says "Congratulations, Runner," with scenes of deer getting eaten by hyenas or something like that, right?

- I think player health should be just slightly higher. I'd like more opportunity to react and outplay or be outplayed. Like 1.2x or something, just a bit.
- I would like some first-person animation upon spawning in, like a slight shake of the head or getting up from the ground or something.

I haven't played MARATHON in over 24 hours already (Really...?), but I have been thinking about it a lot (Because I wanna play).
I think... here is my feedback right away (Only stuff I want to see changed).

It wasn't close. Something's missing. I hope I can resolve it by tomorrow night.

It works perfectly but only half of the time. So, I could be almost there or almost nowhere close.

I have to rewrite this whole chunk of code that a lot is predicated on... Let's just try to get it done right away.
