BotFight - Robot Fighting and Destruction Protoype
« on: November 11, 2017, 06:26:34 PM »
Hello!

I've been working on a robot fighting game prototype. My first focus has been on the damage physics, so that robots can be dented, mangled and deformed, and broken apart into a pile of metal and electronics.

Currently the prototype just has a simple arena with a hammer bot, a full body spinner, and a couple of arena hazards. My next focus will be on a construction system to allow people to build their own robots.

Here's the prototype: http://benw.ca/downloads/games/botfight/BotFight-winx86-v0.1.1.zip

Feedback is appreciated!

Edit: Fixed a couple minor bugs in the build

Hey man. This is really cool. I like how the panels can deform on impact.
I believe a few guys from here were teaming up on a similar project so maybe you could team up?

Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

Interesting work for sure. I can help contributing 3d models if you want. Do you have a discord account?
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Wow!

Really impressive work on the deformable bodies! :)

I love the idea that a match is decided based on deformation, rather than a more abstract "hit point"-style number.

good work homie
I played yesturday, but did not have time to post.

If you dont mind, i will send you a 2nd arena with 2 new bots ok?
I will make an arena which is cool, i have expericance in Unity.

EDIT:
Bug report, When the pulverizer hit the spinner bot with out its shell, it flew into the air, then i waited a while, moved my mouse, and it was glitching out.

I'm not looking for help right now, but thanks for the offers. At some point I'll probably want someone to help with modelling components and arenas, but for now I need to at least hammer out the building system and do some design work and planning first.

EDIT:

I'm still ironing out the physics, I'll look into it. The camera glitching out is probably a result of it trying to keep both bots in view even though one has fallen off the map.
