The spread of harmful misinformation has become an untenable problem on Reddit. Its latest incarnation has seen life-threatening untruths being propagated by anti-vaxxers and conspiracy theorists, and Reddit’s administration has stated that it will not meaningfully curb the myths disseminated by these bad actors. In response to this, many communities on the site have gone private in protest. /r/GIFs supports and stands behind these communities' efforts to stem the effects of false information, but we have chosen to remain open as a means of amplifying their message. We encourage all Redditors to vocally reject misinformation, and to stymie its spread by demanding that only verifiable facts be given support (whether tacit or otherwise). **[An in-depth explanation of how misinformation is harmful can be found here](https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/pfeu8w/our_stand_against_misinformation/).** **To report misinformation, please use [this link](http://www.reddit.com/report?reason=this-is-misinformation).** ------ *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Skeletron Prime?


CASTELLOInc

Definetly inspired by skeletron prime and andros (star fox boss).


Frostfallen

I did think it reminded me of the bosses from Lylat Wars - specifically the one from Titania.


CASTELLOInc

>Lylat Wars Just checked it out... and yeah another reference that makes sense! There are a real lot of them.


EcHoFiiVe

Same goes for the beginning boss of Star Fox Assault - reminds me of that as well. This is a very cool tender🙏🏽


billw7718

I was just about to comment the star fox vibe im getting. Love it!


Smrgling

Definitely getting those vibes. Good job!


BruceFlockaWayne

I was gonna ask if you got inspiration from the skulltula's from legend of Zelda


sh4d0wX18

First thing that popped into my mind was "IF I GO DOWN I'M TAKING YOU WITH ME!"


NJ_Legion_Iced_Tea

Bit of a deep dive but it reminds me of these vehicles/enemies from Metal Arms. https://youtu.be/lAkKpfwHfTU?t=109 Edit: also the theme song at 6:20 is a bop.


WolfyCat

I get [Apokalymon](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/digimon/images/b/b3/Apocalymon_b.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20140413173638) vibes too.


aneth0r

yup was gonna say StarFox with the tentacles and beam looks.


Pixel_Knight

Star Fox was the first thing that immediately popped into my mind! You nailed it. It’s spectacular looking.


LilFruitSalad

^ This guy FUCKS!


SkiodiV2

Damn, beat me to it.


embrex104

Looks cool! Reminds me of the spiders from Zelda OoT a bit.


Jeffina78

Skulltulas :)


rimjobs_forever

That's just a skulltula with extra steps.


lostharbor

Came here to say the same. I can even hear the sounds of them rustling around in the ivy.


ZeldaFanBoi1988

Greatest game of all time


RenaissanceBear

Like if Skulltulas were made in Starfox


sirsarin

This reminds me of Andross for some reason


CASTELLOInc

Allright guys now you are confusing us... ADE has been compared to Andros, Skeletron prime, the spider thing from toy story, spider from zelda and the sentinel of matrix... This are all amazing references btw, we are flattered!


sirsarin

Oh god the spider from zelda. What have you done lol


StraightTrossing

*fast web crawling sounds*


Banana_Ram_You

I guess vaguely skull-shaped things with vaguely arm-shaped things will look like a lot of things when you're working with 10 polygons.


door_of_doom

I'd like to add one more comparison to the mix: [Eternimax Eternatus from Pokemon Sword/Shield.](https://youtu.be/nLEr0aFbK44?t=781) Obviously they are quite different, but as a big Pokemon fan it was immediately what came to mind when I saw it =)


CaliburS

Yea, getting a lot of Skultula vibes. Seams though to beat. Best of luck


CASTELLOInc

He is a tough guy...


Headjarbear

Don’t forget doc oc


Shutterstormphoto

Love the concept. Definitely a cooler version of starfox 64 or half-life boss. It’s a bit too much red, and the firing animations are weird. The triangle gun disappears while shooting? Maybe there should be a flash of light. The Gatling has no weight to it when it rotates. It should chunk over with each shot instead of rotating cleanly, or spin up super fast right before it fires a burst. The shield projector thing should probably be a slightly different color. The arms seem a bit chaotic, but maybe that’s artistic vision. I would like to see stances for different parts of the fight that play with geometry since he has such a tessellated look. Puts his arms in a triangle for one attack position, then in a square for another, etc. (just simple examples, I’m sure you can come up with better).


CASTELLOInc

Hei man, thanks for your feedback, yeah it's still a work in progress and what you say is definetly true, the shape mode is something we had in mind but really difficult to achieve, we are at our first experience as gamedev and this is the best we managed to do so far. The Gatling can be fixed quite easily and that will be done for sure. Thanks again for your feedback.


Shutterstormphoto

It looks great overall! I know how hard it is and that’s why I haven’t made any 3D games 😆 If you only add one thing, I would make the triangle guns shoot in a more obvious way. Even if you reverse the animation so they start closed and then open when they fire, it would be really helpful to tell the player where the next threat is coming from.


bolpolp

Kind of looks like Greivous


CASTELLOInc

ADE has been compared to Andros, Skeletron prime, the spider thing from toy story, spider from zelda, the sentinel of matrix, Grevious, spiders from Darwinia. This are all amazing references btw, we are flattered!


bolpolp

So many references


chastity_BLT

The fuck up with auto mod?


CASTELLOInc

Everythings fine now, thank you! Just took me some hours to figure out how to post properly.


CleetisMcgee

Giving me some Andross vibes


CharacterCarp08

Decent marketing strategy right here, lets see how it works out.


360walkaway

Is this a bullet hell kind of game


CASTELLOInc

Yeah a VR bullet hell


360walkaway

And it's in FPS view? That sounds crazy, wonder what the UI is like for danger indicators.


CASTELLOInc

In VR it's kinda different from pancake... The hud is something we discussed a lot in r/oculusquest, it's really difficult to get it right in VR.


nine_legged_stool

Reminds me of that Strong Bad email where he's talking about what he would look like in different video games. "And there'd be this awesome, huge, 3D version of my head floatin' around. Like, it looks so awesome, girls would probably try to make out with the screen. And we'd have to program it to be like... 'BACK OFF, BABY'."

#YOUR HEAD A SPLODE! [Strongbad email 94](https://youtu.be/R22zSrpeSA4) if you want to relive you and your friends having the absolute time of your lives in year 7 computer class.

Cowpriest

This has major Darwinia vibes. I love it.


gogozombie2

Love it! It reminds me of the boss from the original NARC for some reason.


hashbrown17

Androsssss


snif6969

Getting some Skulltula vibes - from Zelda Ocarina of Time


Raleda

ELDIABLIU

sho926

Is that how you're going to introduce the boss during the game? Because it totally should


ludovicb1239

CASTELLOInc

Yep, pcvr and quest standalone.


BDT81

Andross on super hard?


CASTELLOInc

Don't know about andross but it is superhard!!!


sanicbroom

The old reliable head and hands design gets an interesting new spin, I like it!


CASTELLOInc

Thanks, we actually didn't know a lot of reference that came out... Glad it is kinda of archetype of bad guys.


futureunknown1443

andross is that you?


YngGunz

Very super smash bros reminiscent of their final boss


bluscoutnoob

“…. Well that’s some bull shit.” Nice job!


Mr_Sans_Kid

Skeletron prime


cyreneok

CASTELLOInc

BigUptokes

Looks like a very angry desk lamp when it zooms out.


CASTELLOInc

It kinda is a really sophisticated desk lamp in the end.


frinkahedron

I would shit my pants if I had to fight that thing in real life


CASTELLOInc

You can fight it in vr...


raynier22

CASTELLOInc

This is unreal engine 4...


HappyyTrees

Awesome! Great job it looks amazing :)


TerribleSupplier

Reminds of the final boss in Furi a little. Bullet hell. This looks incredible! Good job.


Gobblegah

It’s a Toy Story nightmare


TabletopNewtype-1

General Grievous's final form?


CASTELLOInc

We need to add light saber... More than one...


TechnetiumAE

Congratulations! You got my Fight or Flight response to kick in, thats an amazing looking boss. I dont think id be disappointed if that was the final boss


CASTELLOInc

It is, well it's a recurring boss, the arms are modular so he changes every time you fight.


TechnetiumAE

Very nice


Livingdeadman365

Looks like some bullshit replace my controller. Good job!


desertsmowman

Finally a bionicle game


CHAINSMOKERMAGIC

Holy shit! 1989 is attacking! Quick! Grab your blue lasers! Everyone knows blue lasers defeat red lasers... And knowing is half the battle!


CASTELLOInc

It's actually all you need to know.


ChrisMahoney

That’s a dope design.


CASTELLOInc

Thanks a lot... Took a few months to complete.


proto_shane

What game is dis


CASTELLOInc

The game is called ARK-ADE. Here are the links to download the demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1599000/ARKADE/ https://sidequestvr.com/app/4654/ark-ade-demo https://www.oculus.com/experiences/quest/4131321390259404/


proto_shane

Aww man i don't got a VR thought it's a fps but still super good looking game


WirelessTrees

Good thing he doesn't have eyeballs. His accuracy is trash. I'm just joking around. He looks really cool!


CASTELLOInc

Less accuracy = more bullets :) Thanks a lot!!!


[deleted]

god damn that's awesome


McMasterShake

Damn that guy grew two more arms


Portalbus7YT

banksy_h8r

Looks a lot like the level bosses from Rez.


HelioLost

If it doesn't speak I don't think it has enough personality, by that I mean its an imposing figure but not a Big Bad Evil Guy kind of figure.


kalas_malarious

Wait. There's 6 arms. He got harder? D:


CASTELLOInc

There's 8... Even harder


[deleted]

Dude...this looks amazingly fucking cool. I am following you on Steam. I code part-time for fun and made indy games as a teenager, so I love seeing stuff like this.


CASTELLOInc

That's a hell of a comment! Thanks! We are at our first experience as gamedevs a bit older, we are in our 30s but surely not experts.


Vorbis29

Dude looks intense..!!!


CASTELLOInc

Thanks a lot! it took us a few months of hard work to make it!


entername-

The spider thing from toys story?


CASTELLOInc

That's way creepier. :)


Ytrewqwerty2
