This weird game idea I have

I am currently learning how to program with unity, because as a friend of mine said: "Don't wait for the game you want to be made." And because I am currently really obsessed with Metroidvanias, I want to go into that direction. Probably try out a very short, simple action platformer first, before trying something larger.

But now here is the thing: I really want to make it a Solarpunk game. Because I love my Solarpunk and we need more Solarpunk games, that are neither crafters, nor city builders of some sort.

This currently puts me into the weird question: What kinda antagonists am I gonna have. Or rather: How to go about this?

I kinda would love to make it a Solarpunk vs Cyberpunk storyline. So, I don't know? Mechas as antagonists? Mechas and Cyborgs? Do the Solarpunk main characters fight to establish their Solarpunk world against a Cyberpunk world? Or is the Solarpunk world already established and a Cyberpunk group tries to destroy it?

I don't know. I really would love to hear from other people. What would you like to see?

Medic throwing a tantrum. He does not want to be a ragdoll. I just forgot to put a script on him that I had on everyone else. He’s working fine now. But he was not happy the first time I clicked play.

Mini C# accomplishment to celebrate. I learned raycasting today. I’m using it here to activate ragdolls when I click on the characters.

I’m glad I finally got around to learning this one. Raycasting seems to open tons of doors. You can retrieve all kinds of information on what the ray hits, and access and make changes to pretty much anything on the game object you have hit. definitely useful.

Just had a milestone kind of moment. Months ago, I wrote a c# script for something in Unity, and it took me like 2 days to get it working...

Today, I wrote a new script that did the same thing, only it was better organized, better optimized, and it took me only a few minutes. I didn't need to consult the docs for anything, and it just felt easy.

I'm loving programming, and I am proud of how far I have come.❤

Torturing my Unity friends (and some new stolen Valve characters) with Ragdoll Physics (ostensibly for educational purposes)

Continuing to fail forward in Unity 3D for your amusement. I brought in some Team Fortress 2 boys this time. Learned about ragdoll physics, made some ragdoll torture devices with Pro Builder, and even did everything with C# instead of Playmaker this time!
