No, I gave up. Too many shaders to convert to GLES2 syntax.

You mean reworking the whole game and losing all advantages teeworlds's codebase offers?

I know that teeworlds is like a tiny simplest easy customizable game, and I like for this... but with godot you can add more interactive objects with physic engine and publish for android

So, what's going on with Ninslash?

0.4.0 took a lot longer than expected but I'm really happy with the result.
The new weapon system was the biggest change. It's not perfect, but it makes adding new weapons and items really fast and easy process, and I don't have to limit the number of items & weapons any more. I had to disable and rework some of the older features, but I'm adding them back with steady pace. There was lots of other minor improvements in 0.4.0 as well, to physics, levels, player size, sounds, visuals... I didn't include a single one manually created level in 0.4.0, all maps are generated by server.

Had I made better design choices along the way this update could've been released a year ago. This was the third time I reworked the weapon system, and hopefully the last. The development pace hasn't been that fast (reworking existing features is far from rewarding), but I still enjoy working with Ninslash, even more than before since now I can focus more on the content instead of the underlying systems / infra.

What's next?

I'm currently working to improve overall gameplay feel. This means getting rid of bugs and small things that annoys everybody. While I'm at it, I'm also working on new content: items, weapons, enemies, gamemodes...

New powerful items have a huge potential gameplay impact. Not necessarily in invasion (PvE), but in PvP gamemodes, especially in survival mode. Powerful grenades, shield & laser wall generators, buffs like invisibility and rampage etc. Aim is that one well placed trap can cause more harm than whole team spraying with random weapons.

New gamemodes I've been looking into are race, domination, murder mystery and horde modes. With 0.4.0 I hid reactor defense. Gun game and chainsaw infection were disabled as well (inf even earlier) as I wasn't happy with how they played (and gun game doesn't make that much sense with all the new weapons. Sorry Henningstone for wrecking your work).

Once I feel really happy with the gameplay and overall feel, content & stability, I'm going for Steam release.

I've been working with Ninslash for two years now, and stay assured, I'm not stopping here. This is where it all started, this is where we're now.

That's my thoughts, feel free to share yours!

I like many extension you have add into Teeworlds base game... but I don't understand why the player is not able to walk or climb on a 45° slope, while he can easily walk on a vertical wall

version 0.4.5

• Laser walls now open for allies

• New laser wall sprite

• Usable item that resurrects one dead ally

• Bazooka's max damage reduced to 90

• Grenade's damage increased to 120

• Server stability fixes

Ddnet didn't destroy teeworlds, teeworlds did it in its entirety itself. Ddnet just collected what was left. Just saying average gamer today is totally overwhelmed by a serverlist with filters and teeworlds doesn't have the best defaults. (that's just one reason)

But yeah, ninslash is cool, especially those vending machines. Ai is as always, siile, chapeau! (they still tend to like to to get stuck in slope ceilings, but who cares)

Yes? No? Maybe?

Wow that would be pretty cool man, I wish you all the best.
