In my game, The Great Era, I’ve been looking for some tips or some ways I could improve my combat in my game. I made a testing place so you don’t need to progress or anything. Make sure to bring a friend if you wanna test in depth.
I’d say you should make a fixed camera during duels and such. And for example when a player gets yeeted, the camera follows them. And maybe when a heavy hit is given, the camera shakes a lot. And when you get knocked out, the screen blurs out, etc.
Like the street fighter games. Example : Ekey×1 - rightclick×1 - leftclick×2 - Ekey×3 = some sick combo with camera manipulation where you grab your enemy and smash them into the ground (cinematically)
In ‘boxing league’ when you finish your enemy with your heavy attack, it shows a scene where the enemy’s jaw breaks and they get yeeted across the ring.
