hey all, this might be a *little* different from my usual art posts but I'm stumped here, there's this fnaf fangame I found on my computer and I can't find it on the web (although I didn't search too deep). the name of it is Mechanical Perception and it doesn't seem like it has much in it, a friend suggested it could be some sort of work in progress that I somehow have access to but the filedate predates when I got my computer (I think?). anyway here's some gameplay, when I freeze it's when I'm pressing a bunch of keys, f1 seems to reload the game when I press it but only when I'm facing the monitor? The game was made in an early version of gamemaker studio (I don't have a yoyogames account or an access key so I can't edit anything in the game) it looks like 1.4 but it could be earlier. Any help is great thanks!

A Postmortem for Phylogenesia Automatorum
It's finally time for the retrospective on my 2 week roguelite/incremental cellular automata game jam hybrid!
It all started when, in late December, I saw a post on Reddit about the New Years Incremental Game Jam. I was both excited and hesitant to participate - excited because I had, for a long time, wanted to try my hand at an incremental-style game, and hesitant because I had already spent a few months working only very sporadically on my main game, Stellar Terminus. Nevertheless I thought it was a good opportunity to learn some more about Gamemaker Studio 2, and also to get back into regular programming.
What went right
There were a few defining moments when it came to developing this game. My favourite types of incrementals were ones that had awesome visuals that evolve over the course of the game, in the forefront of my mind as I had recently played and enjoyed (the) Gnorp Apalogue. With that in mind, I chose to base my game on Conway's Game of Life - a dynamic, interesting interface that could directly present and represent the choices you make in the game. When I streamed my first programming session to Z, which was just a 1:1 implementation of the Game of Life, he suggested a roguelite direction for this game, and that immediately resonated with me - I could absolutely see randomised upgrades (styled as genetic mutations) being a way to shape your simulation, while keeping things fresh and interesting over the course of the game.
Tumblr media
I am a sucker for music in videogames that dynamically changes. When I asked @weaponizedslob for another (who's doing a similar thing for the music for Stellar Terminus), he suggested that each unique plant would have their own looping instrument, and I fell in love with the idea. Having a song that you personally build up depending on your choices and combination of plants was very appealing, and he worked in the background to provide this while I kept on programming.
The next key moment in the game's development was adding all 10 plants, but specifically the 0range. What started as just a dumb pun (all of its values were set to 0 (except point values) so it had 0% chance to spawn and generate points) turned into one of the defining characteristics of the game whereby you had to manage buying it not so early that it would impact your points, but not so late that you'd need to spend a ton of points fishing for the right mutations to make it produce points.
And the final moment was something I have already previously talked about - Lucinius suggested the player be given 5 free resets at the start of each game. This solved so many problems at once: the fact that point gain was probabilitic and variable, that some plants were more tempramental than others, mitigation of bad luck when it came to upgrades, etc. It also provided a metric in which I could balance each plant such that on average, they would yield at least 1 and at most 2 upgrades within those 5 resets, more than enough in most runs to get a foothold.
Other positive aspects:
It was my first true solo game that I had completed and released! I had previously done some gamejams with the help of Lucinius and Maza, of course, but relying only on yourself is a feeling I enjoy.
I was able to stick to a timeline and scope. While there was a bit of scope creep, I had accounted for it and had the majority of the planned features done by week 1, allowing time for polish and balance.
Testing commenced early and often, although I have a bad habit of not playtesting things myself, which I need to do more of!
Porting the aesthetics and some generic UI code from Stellar Terminus saved me a heap of time and headache
The logo for the game, despite me doing it 1 hour before submission, turned out really well and I always discount how a little bit of effort presentation-wise can have a huge impact on people's perception of things.
So what could have been improved upon?
The biggest issues people have raised through both playtesting and comments on the game, were that the game could use more work on its balance. I completely agree with this assessment, and I touched on this in my previous blog. I think incrementals in general are incredibly hard to balance as humans do not have a very good sense for exponentially increasing numbers. Without completely reworking some systems, I tended towards an easier game. Making the game brutally hard would have stifled creativity, experimentation, and different builds, as players would have to tend towards an optimal strategy every game. There is definitely a balance to be struck, but considering the appeal of a lot of roguelites is "popping off" with a certain build, I was not too dissatisfied with how things turned out. Plus, players could always compete with others or themselves for the least amount of simulation resets to victory.
The simulation and overall concept of the game was also quite difficult to understand. This was something I really should have realised earlier, as given an initial configuration of the Game of Life, it is almost impossible to predict how it will evolve. When you throw in multiple plants with different rulesets, a random starting configuration, and probabilistic spawning and dying, a player has no real chance to understand the ins and outs of the system. Of course, I had designed it with a vision that you wouldn't need to, rather, the aim was to just get a sense of the overall vibe (for lack of a better word) of the simulation, and nudge it in the direction you want it to go. Given more time, I would have had a before/after demo play when you're hovering over each upgrade to help players' understanding.
Tumblr media
My biggest technical misstep was definitely not having a web version of the game on release. The incremental genre is largely played in a browser, and while previously we had always submitted downloadables for gamejams, I really neglected to think about the audience for this one. I ended up rectifying this about a week later, but the web version is not at parity with the downloadable version, with its performance being worse, and its lack of music. And in the end, the most amount of votes came in the initial rush, and so I definitely missed the boat there!
Other negative aspects:
Some plants definitely could have felt/behaved in more unique ways. However, that would have required adding more parameters into the database, which would further muddy the underestanding of the entire simulation, so I decided against it for this version of the game.
UI is still an ongoing struggle for me. Everything here had buttons and mouseover text which was great, but low-res pixel art and my lack of artistic talent doesn't lend itself well to UI-heavy games.
The spaghetti code was REAL, especially within the button object. There was quite a bit of technical debt I had to overcome implementing new features, but at the same time some features were implemented blazing fast by disregarding encapsulisation and robust coding principles.
The name. Argh! It's not bad, but it doesn't really tell the average player what the game's about, and, confession time, every time you've seen me write it, I've just copy-pasted it from the itch.io page because I'm afraid I'm going to spell it wrong. At least it ranks well on Google (when it stops trying to auto-correct it)!
BONUS: Stuff I learned about Gamemaker Studio 2!
They reverted back to a 1-time payment model, a huge step in the right direction from their previous monthly subscription model. Not only that but now, you can export your game for any platform (except consoles) for free, and you pay a $100 1-time fee if you want to then make money from your game.
Having CSV files open doesn't result in compilation errors, unlike GMS1. This saved so much time as I was able to tweak plant values on the fly. Also, GMS2 now has a native CSV import function, which is nice.
Its code flagging features were really nice. I honestly hated Feather, which is their smart code comprehension system, but just simple things like "hey you haven't used this variable name yet", and color-coding for local vs instance variables were awesome when it came to intercepting bugs early.
There were some weird editor behaviours that I noticed - from the sometimes blurry rendering of text, having multiple of the same code window open, and inconsisten behaviour when it came to tabbing/highlighting text, it was definitely something I had to get used to, and felt like a step backward from GMS1. The way the windows were arranged were a lot nicer though which partially makes up for it.
My .exe files don't get flagged by windows! I think GMS1 is just too old at this point but sending files to friends for testing was a lot smoother here.
And that wraps up the postmortem… well, almost. I'm going to make another small post later because this one is already getting to be a monster, regarding future directions and wishes for the game. But in terms of positives and negatives, that pretty much everything I wanted to say. On the whole? Super happy with how this turned out and the wonderful comments from everyone wherever I posted about the game. I felt it was a nice, self-contained project that was able to nicely achieve the very specific vision I had for it upon conception, and it even resonated with some of my playtesters who were either indifferent to, or actively disliked, incrementals, which is a huge plus in my book!
Here are some bonus stats from itch.io regarding how it has gone over the past week and a bit:

New Features, Lightning Round!
There's been a lot of updates over the past few weeks, and I have been a little too busy implementing them to take the time to upload my progress, so here I will quickly try to show off these features and credit my resources!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
New Animations and Player States So I actually had to totally rewrite the player code to add these new animations and a couple of new states involving getting damaged, dying, and winning the game.
I mostly used the logic from this Godot tutorial by Nathan Lovato in GMS2 which helped me to really break down the character into good chunks. It was tricky to work out the kinks when I started but it worked just as well now and made the workflow with these other new features a lot easier. I also used a lot more functions() to be able to speed things up, since physics would need to be written in every state.
Essentially, these new states work like this:
Touch something bad? Damage State. Damage State? Check if they still have health. (tutorial on invincibility frames by HeartBeast) No health? Enter death state. Death state? Transition to title Game Over room.
And the winning state will simply transition you to the "winning room" as soon as you touch the winning item. And the looking-up and looking-down animations are used in the idle state if the camera detects that that is what the player is inputting.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Title Screen, Pause Menu, Game Over, and Winning Screen So to make these work, the first thing I had to do was actually decouple my camera from my player. Coupling is what happens when you write the code of two objects in such a way that they can't run without each other being present. Decoupling was difficult for me since I did not understand the key difference between calling an instance and calling an object. Basically, an object includes all instances of that object, but an instance is only one specific object that's already loaded.
However, once I did, it was fairly easy to move the camera around through code without a player present and create the Game Over, Title Screen, and Win Screen all on my own.
For the pause menu, I used this tutorial by Shaun Spalding and implemented some assets in the Draw event to make it feel like a proper pause menu.
I'm also just going to mention here that I used this other tutorial by Shaun Spalding to implement a transition so the game doesn't just freeze for 20 seconds while it loads the other room.
Tumblr media
A few more assets I implemented a few more assets, mainly for UI. I actually was able to figure this out by reading documentation! It was pretty much all handled in the DrawGUI event. I also added some simple hearts and coins by using GameMaker Studio's health and score properties, which are universal throughout the project, like a global variable!
Everything past that was mostly more assets like recoloring the roots, making some more roots with the spikes on them, and then making additional backdrops for above ground and underneath the ground! I would share them all here but I intend to share a link to download the game in the next post, so keep your eye open for that!! :)
