Hey,
check this game I'm making called GANGFORT. A lot is still in WIP, but core has been done and mostly polishing is left. Here is the first screenshot of it below.

Bootleg Gang Garrison 2 happened again.

Folow us for more updates!

Who's us? Please credit anyone who helped you with this project.

Looks appealing, the colors are pleasing my eye and catch the original. Characters look nice too.
If the gameplay and the performance will be about as good as the looks, I bet this will be an awesome game.

Us - me and my game . But there is an artist and a sound/music composer working though, they will be in in-game credits.

Thanks. Will do my best. By the way, characters might change a little bit, so that they would look a little bit less similar to the original.

Wow! That's just neat! The art looks good and so does the characters!

>touch screen
>controls mapped to a gamepad like UI


try some alternative solution, mate, your fingers will cover a third of the screen and won't be as reactive as you expect them to be

[FlareFireburst]

The vignette should probably be over the HUD.
The spritework looks amazing, but the controls, as Meower said, look a bit cluttered.

[Saniblues]

I'll take a crack at organizing the ui a bit, if you guys don't mind my intrusion.

[Gintas]

So what suggestions for controls do you guys have?

The vignette should probably be over the HUD.

Vignette is over the HUD.

[Saniblues]

• Move Menu button to the empty side of the screen, or underneath the Health hud. The latter would probably be the better option, since the topright is ideally where the kill log would be.
• Remove the Jump key. Keep your movement keys unified
• Remove the Movement keys, replace them with a dial. This is for several reasons,
• Unifies visual design
• Can be used for finer control over character movement, allowing players to nudge themselves and walk slowly when they need to. This is particularly important for Engineers.
• Allows easier diagonal jumping, and automatic jumping for the lazy.
• The game plays like a twinstick shooter. Embrace it.


• Move the Health hud to the position that the Menu button used to be
• Flip the Health hud horizontally. Keep an inward flow with the visual design

[Gintas]

Hmm, I planned a kill log in the top right corner.

[MrRatermat]

UI design is difficult to perfect with touchscreen, especially considering the pace and playstyle of Gang Garrison 2. For example: Using an artillery-style aim is tedious and hard to learn (especially with rifleman who's aim needs to be pretty good for distance shots), whilst using a point-to-kill style aiming method is impractical considering how people's finger must cover the enemy they are trying to track..

[Meower]

Sani's idea is excellent copy that
