Hardline Studios

Intense indie games for the masses.

Hardline Studios is still at it though most of the work in the last several months has been behind the scenes updating the in house game engine so today's screenshot will be less glamorous than previous ones but still totally relevant! Here's what gamedev looks from this side.

@XorDev Full C++ source code so I can change what I want, when I want. 😎

@EmberShadow2 Learn to code games! It's a real time sink.... you can trust me on that one 🙃

@EmberShadow2 Not bad about the same temperature here in Canada's capital which is for the record, far above the normal -25C it used to be. 🥶

@igdmag I'm using a custom made C++ game engine based on the ruins of GamePlay3D with a ton of modifications. It's come a long way and has produced great results for me. I can build PC and Android builds right from Visual Studio and all.

Check out the new Tele-Warp effect for the upcoming metaBall update. Really liked how this turned out!

@EmberShadow2 A (big) update to an existing game but yes... 🎉

A little video showing off the new effects I've been working on for the next BIG metaBall update.

@EmberShadow2 Getting back into full time indie game dev at 48 after a nice burnout period. 🎉

@gamefromscratch Every time I see my 14 year old nephew's laptop, I cringe then douse it in rubbing alcohol and clean it thoroughly to which I get in return "HEY why'd you do that!?"

[Hardline Studios @HardlineStudios]

@XorDev Maybe it's because I'm older (or old school) or just pedantic but I always fully quantify floats as x.y and in C++ always add the f.

@gamefromscratch @Dropbox For sharing builds, I use OneDrive (default not premium) as whomever I share a folder with instantly gets it on their end with all content they can just jump into an play after it's done synching.

Never heard of Drobox bluescreening a system. That's a new one!

[Hardline Studios @HardlineStudios]

@LiquidSwords Very nice! What engine you guys rolling with?

[Hardline Studios @HardlineStudios]

It's been a while since the last post but I've been busy with some major code refactors to make the render.... you know what? It doesn't matter. The next metaBall update is NOT far off. Here, screen shots!

@reduzio @godotengine +Y going up is all I've ever known, of course, like you I'm old school.

Also { and } go on their own lines but that's another story for another day.

@LinusEkenstam #4 all the way!

@tunguz #4 with C++ code on the left, debug output, breakpoints and compilation status stacked up on the right.

Ahh that elated feeling of finally smashing a very elusive crash bug that you spend hours looking for and planning a fix for only to realize it was fixable in about 30 seconds with a few simple lines of code being changed. Love what you do.

@clemmygames Marble Madness meets Q*Bert.

[Hardline Studios @HardlineStudios]

@IndieBandits metaBall is a fresh take on the ball rolling genre. Think Marble Madness meets Q*Bert in a Tron Universe. These are shots from an upcoming update!
