I watched some videos from you on youtube. I like your work! I found you, because, I started to devlop a game with Unity too, I stoped developing, bacouse it cost lots of time. You make a vary good job!
But I have a Question: Can you upload more Videos, like Tuts on YT?
Hi, you just wrote how much time it takes to develop a game. You think i have time to make tutorials? Tutorials also take a lot of time. You don't make games from tutorials. You need tutorials only at very beginning, to learn how to use unity engine/programming language and you already can find thousands of tutorials about it. on youtube.
You're right. I hope this game still get updates in the next years. And I have a next question: Is that a work, wich do you want to earn money? Or do you earn money with this? I think you make a gread job! Nice one OMA!
Veramente un gioco bellissimo, solo che ci sono pochi giocatori. Aggiungete più armi e più mirini, per favore modificate come sono accesiorriate le armi. Per esempio la USP fa schifo senza mirino quindi mettetelo perchè è ingiocabile!
hey OneManArmy, i know you are a single developer and my brother has about 8-9 years of experience in programming if you want to you dm and ill give you his number
i cant download because on itch i have red button which says "open page". What should i do? Today on this web page i had link for macos, now i dont have it
Every time I open the game, the loading screen will show up and I will be able to see the Unity symbol, then it will crash and go right back to my home screen. It has been running relatively smoothly for the past couple days. I am on Mac.
What servers do u guys use cuz I cant find anyone to play with. I love this game and wish to play more online so please answer! BTW I've been playing for 2 years!
In rough it means "I think there's a brilliant way to work on the game, thank you to the good producers here." So I think he says Its a brilliant game and thanks you, the producer, for making it.
It depends from your game style. If you play aggressively then L96A1. For sniping from far distance will be better M107. And M110 is somewhere in between.
Please add battle royale (if possible) that still keeps with the style of the game. I watched your old youtube videos and saw some vehicles and AI which you could implement into the later versions of skillwarz.
I am absolutely in love with this movement, Idk if you made it yourself, but it is very fun to strafe hop and slide around. there aren't many call of duty esque games out there with this fast of movement. I have only played the game for about an hour so the first impressions are good, flashbangs might be a little op though. my only complaint so far is the maps, although they are decently well designed for the amount of movement you have, they don't look good. however im fairly certain you are working on that. keep up the good work
When game is in development, then "more" simply slows down development. Every time you change something in weapon mechanics, you will have to fix/adjust every singe weapon. Every time you will make some change in movement, you may have to make adjustments on most maps. On prototype maps it can be done much easier.
Adding weapons/attachments at this moment is simply waste of time, since i plan to change model of arms and hire someone who will make good animations for weapons. There is no difference in gameplay between prototype and non-prototype maps. Prototype maps are easier/much faster to make and performance on these maps is much better. Many players play this game on "calculators" and i am not joking here.
And if you are not familiar with level design, then prototyping is part of map design. You don't create detailed maps from very beginning. At first you create map blockout and you test gameplay.
I am not a game designer, and I know that you have more experience, however, if you want this game's community to grow like it should you need to listen to people. Let's say someone were to come from a game like Call of Duty, and they decide to play this. In the Call of Duty games, the maps are beautiful, filled with beautiful architecture and balance. While your prototype maps compensate for their simpleness (for now), in the future more non-prototype maps would be necessary to populate the servers (as in prototype maps don't look as good as the Arena 1 [Construction Site] map and without increasing the visual quality of maps may reduce people's interest). Also, while attachments aren't always that necessary, the addition of an advanced attachment system is used in a large variety of FPS games (including free ones) that greatly surpass the quality of your game. Character customisation allows for people to funnily represent themselves. I also know that in mapping you start of with a prototype, but I haven't seen any of the prototype maps changed to be non-prototype (probably because I've started losing interest and I've been playing other games).
You say "listen to people". I am listening and i take notes. Many features are in game only because of suggestions. But every single player has own opinion about games and what makes you think that some random guys opinion is more valuable then mine?
I can't do multiple things at the same time. I am working alone and i have to set priorities. Detailed maps are not priority. More weapons/attachments are not priority. One day will be, but not now.
I had fun noscoping others lol This game has a lot of potential in it, what I want is to add more gamemodes so we don't have to play TDM over and over again, and a matchmaking/ranking system. However, I find it hard to connect to some servers.
1) we don't have ranking? 2) only TDM? we have also DM, GG, TGG. If nobody is playing these modes, then create room. 3) can you explain "hard to connect to some servers"?
Bro, the game just won't run. I download it, extracted it. Then when i run it it starts, Unity symbol seen, then a page appears for one sec or even less and then the game stops. Its crashing idk why. What do i do. Please help me out here.
Are you talking about L96A1? It never was guaranteed "one-shot".
Damage depends from many factors. 1) Are you playing Hardcore, or Normal mode. 2) Distance (at some distance damage will drop) 3) Where exactly bullet hits (head, torso, arms, legs) 4) Enemy health (enemies can have more then 100 HP) 5) If you use suppressor. With suppressor damage drops faster.
Good game play! Impressive multiplayer! Decent graphics! The only thing I would recommend is maybe add more details maybe not everything is tiles maybe add grass or concrete.
At this moment important is not how it looks, but how it feels. Sooner or later animations and part of models will be replaced. I would like to hire experienced animator, but it all requires money.
You know what i hoped in thinking it wouldnt be any good but i was wrong. Other than the bugs I really enjoyed it and i hope you put in a region near me. I love the game. Good work.
I absolutely love and adore this game, its like cod mixed with cs:go and i feels amazing getting each kill whether it be with a gun or a grenade. The only cons this game has is the ranks:
1. 0-5 Rank players join a server full of rank 10-50 players and i feel sad for them when i destroy them with a quick scope, and what i mean by this is that its not fair for newer players and there should be quick match system witch searches for servers with low rank players if the person is lets say rank 5.
2. Its too addictive and if you dont plan on playing for 3.5 hours without even getting up from your chair this game isnt for you :):):):) jk.
But all in all the game is pretty much perfect.
I hope @OneManArmy that you succeed with every game you make.

Dont stop Programming! :)

Grazie!como eu atualizo o jogo?
basta baixar a nova versão e excluir a antiga.
Do I need to download the game again to update it?
Yes.
hey OneManArmy, i know you are a single developer and my brother has about 8-9 years of experience in programming if you want to you dm and ill give you his number
Hi, i am not looking for programmers.
ok, thx for replying
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9TtoOJjGpU
And if you see message that "developer cannot be verified", then hold "ctrl", left mouse click on "skillwarz" and choose "Open".
i dont know what the updates are, and i'm just curious.
https://skillwarz.com/topic/5-changelog-22042020/
i couldnt open the app
If you need help:
https://skillwarz.com
where is download file I want to play and seems like a fun game ut I don't know how to download
Mac version will be available after one hour, windows x64 after 2 hours. Linux and windows x86 after 3 hours.
i cant download because on itch i have red button which says "open page". What should i do? Today on this web page i had link for macos, now i dont have it
same! Can someone help me?! i don't have much time!!!!!
LOL Im on Mac and downloaded the Linux file and that worked but the Mac file doesn't,LOL. AMAZING GAME BTW.
how do i get that drone thing i keep seeing
On some maps you can find red boxes. From them you can get one of three things - drone, health injection (200 hp), or sentry gun.
Every time I open the game, the loading screen will show up and I will be able to see the Unity symbol, then it will crash and go right back to my home screen. It has been running relatively smoothly for the past couple days. I am on Mac.
Next time create topic in forum:
https://skillwarz.com/index.php
It's not "crash" when game closes. It can happen when game cant connect to database. Simply wait 10 min and try again.
Okay, thanks. I waited almost the whole day and it is doing the same.
Hey OneManArmy I cant find the folder to change background and stuff. It's not in my documents like u showed in your vid. Please help. Thx
what OS?
I have a windows 10 4gb ram. I downloaded to the downloads, pressed extract here and then copied the file to the desktop. Sorry for the late reply :(
Game creates folders after first launch. There MUST be folder "Skillwarz" in Documents.
NVM found it. Thx for the help
What servers do u guys use cuz I cant find anyone to play with. I love this game and wish to play more online so please answer! BTW I've been playing for 2 years!
Players are only in EU region. If you want to play with friends (with low ping), then choose server which is closest to you.
Thanks a lot man. Really helped!
oyun baya iyi yapımcılara burdan teşekkür ederim oyun üzerine çalışın parlak bir yol var bence
I don't understand.
In rough it means "I think there's a brilliant way to work on the game, thank you to the good producers here." So I think he says Its a brilliant game and thanks you, the producer, for making it.
what do you think is the best ar/sniper in the game?
It depends from your game style. If you play aggressively then L96A1. For sniping from far distance will be better M107. And M110 is somewhere in between.
hey i was jw how do i make my clan gold
Requires rank 50.
Info about unlocks here:
https://skillwarz.com/topic/9-progression-and-locked-content/
I had download the app but it shows the erorr :
The application “skillwarz” can’t be opened.

I'm on Mac.
Here are some fixes that may work for you as well.

https://skillwarz.com/topic/243-rip-macos/
WORKED! Coolio bro!
no it doesn't
Really? Then you did it wrong. The chmod +x worked for me.
I haven't find anything therefore
Please add battle royale (if possible) that still keeps with the style of the game. I watched your old youtube videos and saw some vehicles and AI which you could implement into the later versions of skillwarz.

A part of the community is against it and OMA answered it already: see in the first link.
Yeah battle royale is a stretch
Everytime i open the game it instantly crashes. I use a mac. not sure how to fix this problem :(
"Did you tried to install itch.io app and then install games via app?"
Have you tried these fixes?

They may help in your case as well.
i keep on crashing i use a mac but everytime i get into the game i cras
Problem must be on your side. If you need help, then register in forum and provide all info about your system.
I am absolutely in love with this movement, Idk if you made it yourself, but it is very fun to strafe hop and slide around. there aren't many call of duty esque games out there with this fast of movement.

I know you're a solo indie developer, but I believe you need to:
Add more guns
Add more attachments; improve gun customization
Add character customization
Add more non-prototype maps
Overall the game is good, it just needs some time to improve.
When game is in development, then "more" simply slows down development. Every time you change something in weapon mechanics, you will have to fix/adjust every singe weapon. Every time you will make some change in movement, you may have to make adjustments on most maps. On prototype maps it can be done much easier.

I can't do multiple things at the same time. I am working alone and i have to set priorities. Detailed maps are not priority. More weapons/attachments are not priority.
One day will be, but not now.
I've read some of the replies to ideas that could've been really good and you've simply rejected those ideas.
Also, I've noticed in the training mode that there are weapon spawns, jump pads and portals. Maybe you could add them to some more maps.
I had fun noscoping others lol
This game has a lot of potential in it, what I want is to add more gamemodes so we don't have to play TDM over and over again, and a matchmaking/ranking system.
However, I find it hard to connect to some servers.
1) we don't have ranking?
2) only TDM? we have also DM, GG, TGG.
If nobody is playing these modes, then create room.
3) can you explain "hard to connect to some servers"?
sounds like they aren't understanding ping kicks lol
i really like your game good job
Thanks
hi I love your game, i also have fun every time i play, can you add a sort of trouble in terrorist town event? thank you!
Enter my FPS game jam if you want to compete against other games (if anyone else joins).
Best part "if anyone else joins" ))
Yeah
I've downloaded the app: skillwarz_56_Mac.zip490 MB and I opened the zip file and when I try to launch the app I get this:
The application “skillwarz” can’t be opened.
Any ideas?
Try to install itch.io app and then install games via app.
or:
Bro, the game just won't run. I download it, extracted it. Then when i run it it starts, Unity symbol seen, then a page appears for one sec or even less and then the game stops. Its crashing idk why. What do i do. Please help me out here.
P.S i am playing in mac. Mac user.
please reply ASAP. Thank you
Create topic in forum and provide info about your PC (CPU, GPU, RAM and what version of OS). If you have played game before, then tell us username.
If possible record video, upload on youtube and drop link in topic.
ohhk
let me do that
I am having the same exact problem. Did you get it fixed?
Are you talking about L96A1? It never was guaranteed "one-shot".
Damage depends from many factors.
1) Are you playing Hardcore, or Normal mode.
2) Distance (at some distance damage will drop)
3) Where exactly bullet hits (head, torso, arms, legs)
4) Enemy health (enemies can have more then 100 HP)
5) If you use suppressor. With suppressor damage drops faster.
Do you own tests on Practice/Sandbox map.
Fuck, this is CS:GO 2.0
Good game play! Impressive multiplayer! Decent graphics! The only thing I would recommend is maybe add more details maybe not everything is tiles maybe add grass or concrete.
Really smooth gun play and movement, reload animations could use some work. Games got potential
At this moment important is not how it looks, but how it feels. Sooner or later animations and part of models will be replaced. I would like to hire experienced animator, but it all requires money.
You know what i hoped in thinking it wouldnt be any good but i was wrong. Other than the bugs I really enjoyed it and i hope you put in a region near me. I love the game. Good work.
what bugs? If you noticed any bugs, then report in forum. At this moment all reported bugs are fixed.
"i hoped it wouldn't be any good", why?
Because of the name, I suggest you come up with a better name SkillWarz sounds (no offense) like a flash game.
you wrote "i hoped"... what was kinda strange
I absolutely love and adore this game, its like cod mixed with cs:go and i feels amazing getting each kill whether it be with a gun or a grenade. The only cons this game has is the ranks:
1. 0-5 Rank players join a server full of rank 10-50 players and i feel sad for them when i destroy them with a quick scope, and what i mean by this is that its not fair for newer players and there should be quick match system witch searches for servers with low rank players if the person is lets say rank 5.

Thanks.
1. At this moment we don't have enough players.
It was cool playing against you, i hope we meet again
wait is there controller compatipilty
Is it possible to play with controllers? Yes.
Hey bro does it work for Xbox controller?
I tried with Xbox, my computer responded with the controller but the game wont play with it.
Hell yes I was waiting for an update I love this game!
yeh i was also scared that the linux version was canceled, but it turns out that its still there
so um , the Mac downloading button doesnt work , it just shows a "Thanks for downloading!" screen but nothing , pls help
I know this is an amazing game , that's why i comment about that
I don't have such problem.
Maybe try other browser. Or install itch.io app and download/install games from app.
nevermind , works now!
where is the linux version
will be ready after around 80 min.
Wow, bro you scared me!
I send you 3 emails about the Linux version.
I LOVE YOUR GAME!!!!!!!!!
