My Trench Run! Redux

60.1k zap210  4 months ago

Obi-wan "Luke, Use the force, again."

Luke "Again?!"

This is a vector graphics-style game made using a black background combined with parts set to 100% emission.The technique is surprisingly simple --- it's just a cockpit block with wheels moving around! Despite having over 2,000 parts, it ran smoothly on my Samsung Galaxy A52 (a 4-year-old device).

How to play:
- First, switch to cockpit view. The game only works correctly in cockpit view.
- Press AG1 to start the game. (Mobile users: turn on Air-to-Air)
- Use Pitch, Roll, and the fire button to control.

For a better experience:
- In Quality Settings, set Graphics to Low and Shadows to High.
- On mobile, also set Physics to Low.

Note:
- If the game starts acting weird midway, just restart it.

    @zap210 - The key is maths, and you need to focus on Fluid Design Engineering to design planes, or components that attach to planes.

    @WalrusAircraft Thanks! That sounds like an awesome job.
    I'd love to be involved in real aircraft work someday too.
    But knowing me, I might just keep making mini-games instead of actual planes. 😄

    @zap210 - you are very talented! You know, Walrus Jr. and we’re talking about this game yesterday. People don’t know this, but he is working on plane component designs IRL.

    @LordGardevoirX Thanks for playing! I recommended Low Graphics because with High Graphics, the explosion is too bright and you know you are in a tunnel. Please use your own preference!

    Nice to see you’re still active, remaking the original Atari Star Wars arcade game in SP. BTW I actually tried it with High Graphics settings, and the result was bigger brighter explosions, which I actually enjoyed more than the “intended” settings. Although I also tried to send the physics too high and the game started to malfunction. Moral: Keep the physics low.

    @Thydoirito I'm glad you liked it. The mechanics are simple, but it was actually a lot of work to make. Honestly, it might've been faster to just program a brand-new game from scratch, Haha.
