Are FMVs a thing of the past? Not for Bash Moto! We just wrapped up filming in Vancouver and Salt Lake City on a razor thin budget. Captured enough for a handful of small cinematics 🙂 #indiegame #gamedev

@paaniipoorii Hard to say, I've never built an android game and not sure how well it might handle the 3d geometry and my shader work. The game runs well, but it might be a stretch if mobile still can't handle physics and 3d worlds well (I never play mobile so I'm clueless)

Elbowing a friend in 2Player local split-screen is now possible! Or play it online with Steams "Remote Play Together" feature.

@Isotoope Just local 2player splitscreen vs mode. But this local mode can be played online with a steam friend via Steams remote play option.

@Forti214753 Way too many things. New bike models, ui polish, bug fixes, music player... though the biggest task is organizing a real life cinematics with classic 80s/90s sportsbikes. It's been eating entire weeks.

@Forti214753 @Flurpr_000 Wow that looks really cool! I like the contrast. Definitely a AAA level quality look. Most of my visual are 2D cards billboards with basic normal maps, which limits the lighting depth but I'll play around a little with this image in mind.

@TLGDgames It's the over the top insults that literally make me smile at the absurdity. Destruction is easy, creation is hard.

Received my first threat so I must be doing something right! Seriously though, way too much hate in the gaming industry these days.

@peteburns77 Aimming for end of the year. There are a few factors out of my hands like the filming of bike cinematics.

@Metemsycosis @kryfton Absolutely, the 90s seemed pretty laid back and simple compared to today.

@frenchbread1222 I received the same email! My solo indie game was featured at PAX, tgs, bitsummet and more... it's a personal accomplishment. No way am I selling that for $100.

@Gian984 @Eduardopto @thegameawards Better not enjoy any AAA games then because they're all kinda like that.

Your intentions are good. If it got that bad I'd be right there protesting along side you, however I really don't see this growing out of control (plus governments rarely get ahead of suspected issues). If you ask me the movement already succeeded because their voice was heard among developers. The industry crash will likely shed more Studios, online services with it, but I suspect it will result in a course correction for future games.

And that's not right and it should be corrected by the company (not saying it's okay), but you and I know these are edge cases... it would be dishonest to say otherwise. Boycott or review bomb the company if you wish, my point is to not burden the entire industry and risk gov overreach for the needs of a few outliers. If you disagree with that statement I can't help ya.

Don't get me wrong, I'm for some aspects the movement, I just think government intervention is a very short-sighted way of solving it. Governments rarely give back power and opens the doors to messy regulation. Also 1mil of 55-77 mil active euro gaming users is still a minority. I haven't seen anything that suggests the average player is affected by this campaign. I believe a vast majority of players play a game for a week or two and move on. I'd love to see some stats that prove me wrong. And if it's a battle of principle, that doesn't hold water in an industry that's currently crashing.

@Josh_Cell_Games @Pirat_Nation For argument sake, let's say you're correct that most didn't hear about the movement and word eventually spreads. You'd still need something like 100 or 200 million signatures to make this a bit more representative of what the average gamer cares about.
