Doesn't the attentionSpan lead to the scenario, that you will gain less exp the more you play against better players? Power leveling should be no issue. If you play more, you should gain more exp. If you "noob hunt" or play against yourself with a second account, the time dependent exp base will kic...

Hi all, sometimes, it is really hard to see irony or sarcasm in written form, so let me just clarify this topic. 1. WongCoins are cool and nobody voted negatively in the poll ^.^ 2. None of the announced „features“ or changes are true. They are all the result of this years April Fools‘ Day. So all o...

Hi there, I am happy to announce some big changes regarding Pixel Tennis‘ future. I spent a lot of work in the game so far and also invested money to rent servers and purchase assets from the Unity store. When I look at the donation count (0), it is quite easy to understand, where this is leading. W...

Networking P2P Gameplay Switch from UNet peer to peer to a custom network implementation is mostly done. Pixel Tennis' match networking logic will now run through a dedicated server located in Germany. Pros: - Increased network compatibility as no direct connection (port forwarding + firewall madne...

Hi yutaa,

thanks! Development is still going on. You can have a look at the Pixel Tennis Progress topic for more information.
Short: Lots of backend work which is important, but does not lead to anything showabe for the News section.

Networking P2P Starting to develop custom replacement methods for UNet's build in functions. This includes, object spawn handling, message handling on object base and smooth player position synchronization across a match hosted on the semi authoritative server. Although, this does not have any visu...

Network Gameserver Complete network communication protocol rewritten. All changes lead to a 4x performance increase at about 1/10th of data usage! The old logic worked still good enough for the game server, but... Networking P2P ... Pixel Tennis multiplayer will switch from UNet peer to peer to a s...

Hi onigiri, sure, I remember you :) I like your first short music track. If you like to compose something similar for a court or menu, please go ahead! You can post your results either at the support area or via private message. About the dubbing part - this is a topic that has a low priority right ...

@Christian: I think, I made myself clear, why there is no initiation to merge our projects at the moment :) The replication of certain elements from FT were somewhat intentional and somewhat not. The gameplay should feel like the FT one (the long slice along with its awkward input is already part of...

Although Fallermagie volunteers for 3D modeling and animation, it does not mean, that this position is occupied. If you are comfortable with 3D design, you can still apply or post examples here.

Thanks all! I'm sorry that i still didn't gave any support content at the moment. That's ok. Do you have an idea, when you can provide some basic examples? Based on that, I would make a note in the support topic that also other contributions are still welcome. I'm curious, what is your main concern ...

Hi there, first of all - yes, I am slow .-. However, before the year ends, I wanted to give you a quick look on the "live" version of the user interface and also share some gameplay material. If you followed the news section, you should already know some of the elements shown in the video. YNw3aybjU...

I'm interested to make both styles (3D and Voxel) to be honest but my level is crap...

o.o Your render image looks great! If you already worked with Blender, you will have more than enough knowledge to build a voxel character model.

So if you want to try yourself on it, go ahead :)

Hi there, In the last months, I was in contact with 3 different people who offered their help for 3D modeling and animation. Unfortunately, all of them either stopped replying or simply made false promises. So this is why I am reopening this request again. In the first place, I am looking for a volu...
