A full-time indie game developer. I mostly work in Unity, with an aspiration to make something unique and fun.

Thought of having some fun with this new feature in #cslo. Sadly, the first thing that came to mind was #corona
So, my message to all is..

@WitchcrafterRPG Though 3 looks the best and suits the theme, I'd say go for the 4th one. Legibility is a lot more important that the font looking good. Or look some more if you can spare the time. Something that looks like 1 or 3 but is a lot more legible.

@bluegoogames If I had a million dollars in my bank account, I would be able to make games the way I want to 🎮

We have some trees in #cslo now, made with #inkscape

Also, our team is looking for some new talent. So, if you are into #gamedev and want to be part of the #cslo team, feel free to reach out to me. We are looking to fill multiple positions of varying talents.

Though it's been a slow week, there's something new in the "Chalk Stories - Lonely Oni" #cslo world
Until the "UI Builder" is out, this might help with UIs in #Unity3D

Been working on tightening up my movement mechanics. Feeling so much snappier now!

@ollymakesthings Looks great. Would love to try it when it's out.

And, here's a clip of the character's collar, where all this started (yes, he's missing his head...... for now)

[Akhil Gupta @aklgupta]

@unity3d has some really cool 2D tools. Using one I #madewithunity a "Wave Maker" for my game "Chalk Stories - Lonely Oni" (#cslo) to answer a very simple problem (see below)

[Akhil Gupta @aklgupta]

I loved it so much that I thought this can be improved & made generic, something that can be used for more than just a collar. So, exposed more parameters in the inspector, made a few adjustments here and there, and that's how I ended up with the current "Wave Maker".

[Akhil Gupta @aklgupta]

@ollymakesthings Love it.

[Akhil Gupta @aklgupta]

Did the NPC ask you something? Is there more than one way to reply. "Next Dialogue Paths" can be used to list all possible responses in a dialogue.

[Akhil Gupta @aklgupta]

#cslo has a lot of dialogues, with checks and multiple response options. This single SO helps keep everything together, in a nice and clear UI.

[Akhil Gupta @aklgupta]

Dialogues can often change parameters, trigger events and result in all sorts of things. This is where "Post Dialogue Events" come in handy. They are called when the dialogue finishes.
