To clarify something. As a lot of people say here why not try Godot. I've been programming in Unity for 5 years, in Godot for a year, and in Unreal. Yes, Godot is a great engine, it's very simple for beginners, it's not HW intensive, it has a simple language to use (a combination of Python and Javascript), it's fast, and has a nice and friendly UI. Unfortunately, Godot still has a long way to go and it's just at the beginning, it's missing a lot of features and it's quite limited. You practically can't make a 3D game in it unless it's just a really small project. 2D games are fine since that's Godot's primary focus, but there's still so much functionality missing and it's also important to say that Godot might be faster in the editor, but it's not faster and more stable in the build compared to Unity. People just love to compare it to Unity and keep saying it's better only because it's free, open-source, and beginner-friendly. It is a very similar thing to saying that Python is better than C. However, the reality is different.

Why not Godot? I heard it good

That water does look great! I tried godot and unreal, and I've sticked with Unity as well :D

Nice game this got me inspired i might try to make something similar :) also it hurts me to see you used a rectangle instead of a bean :(

next, go to godot and after that, cocos

These small channels getting recommended to me of some random dude having fun are my favorite. Also on the topic of your code. Look up "early returns" and the state machine pattern. It will help you write code less diagonally.

sick bro

Hey man how did you make that water?

There are two suggestions i have for wave buoyancy. Number one is for you to procedurally generate the water using a mesh (I would recomend watching brackey's video on it), or Number two is to import a plane with a lot of verticies into unity, turn on Read/Write, then in C# change the individual vertex positions

bro escaped the matrix

unity is better

Can u make ASMR coding videos?

beautiful project, I believe that you will definitely love working on your project in Unity3d, in addition to thousands of resources, you can find everything you want with tutorials on the internet, much easier, in Unity the limit is your imagination! I wish you success in your project!

For a bigger 3D game with a bigger world, I would recommend using Unreal

Hello world!

another comment for you.

Dude you need more learning .

You can start off, with a simpler engine like unity, getting familiarized, since it’s mostly recommended for beginners. And then once you have successful games on it, many successful tittles, and milestones, you can decide to switch to unreal back. There’s no shame on that. That’s what I’m doing rn, as a rookie game developer, I started off with unity, and I’m still using unity, then after I manage to get as many successful tittles as possible, I can start using unreal as my next path. Since unreal is a long journey though. But, I’ll firstly need, get familiarized with c++ of course and get as good as possible on it, then, start with unreal. This reduces me the sudden level of stress.

Good Luck Man....

For me, I’m not a game dev, just a hobbyist. I do have an extensive programming background though. My gripe with unreal was that the workflow was slow. C++ was “slow” in the sense that the hot reload crashes 10% of the time and it only means “updating while the editor is open”. Thinking about Godot, where I started my hobby, changes to either code or the scene tree sync up really fast and you can even fix mistakes and hot reload them while the game is running. To add insult to injury, my PC has a skill issue and just can’t run unreal at all. The action rpg demo took 15 minutes to compile. That NEVER happened with Godot. I just feel godot can help me learn more things like shaders and how to actually build a game. It’s fast and has simpler tools. I would use Unreal for any advanced project though.

I tried Unreal several times and I personally just can't get into it. It's so rigid in my opinion. Everything's already premade so ACTUALLY making something yourself is so hard, you can only really try to mold whatever exists. Whereas in Unity I just add an object and write a script and bam, that object does whatever I want it to with the written script. (I'm not saying you can't do that in Unreal btw, I'm just saying it's very hard to do so, or at least very hard to find out how to do so, and online everyone always uses the existing shit in tutorials so you can't learn from that either) Both are great engines, people really need to get their panties out of a twist on either side. I just prefer to actually write a script (and not have to learn yet another new language with C++... why the heck doesn't Unreal support C#) and know exactly what each piece does because I wrote it myself. It's also why I never use assets. It's slower, but if I make something I know EXACTLY how it works and also have it work exactly how I want it.

I work with UE for almost 2 years and I can say one thing confidently - if you want to work with it, be ready to mess with code and it's internals to figure out how to utilize it to full potential. It's not for making game that are art-focused and it's not for developers who want to focus on game development itself quick, especially if you work on smaller project. But if you have strong background and you put time into it - it gives you keys to creating amazing things that you won't be able to do with anything else at this point, it just doesn't have alternatives. At the same time, it's more suited for mid-size or large projects or games that need multiplayer support (which it also excels in). It has many strong features but doesn't have documentation or tutorials for them, so you have to be ready to go to it's source code and spend hours reading it, or experiment with features to figure out how to apply them properly to your project. It doesn't give you complete architecture to organize your game (which I think no engine does now), but at the same time requires you deep understanding of engine concepts to organize stuff. So, at the end - if you are not ready to work hard to figure out engine first instead of using it, it just might not be an option for you 🙂

Landscapes in UE I admit could be better right now (looks like that's what you're doing) but believe me, UE is absolutely worth the time. Unity is incomplete in many ways and the further you get into a project, the less control you have as different problems arise. Some of the issues I've ran into using Unity felt completely unsolvable with ridiculously cryptic and misleading errors. Unreal is constantly updating and adding useful features that adds tools to your problem solving arsenal. Maybe take a moment and move away from landscapes and see what else you can do with Unreal. Also, you don't have to use C++. Yeah its faster but for the joy of making games, blueprints are incredibly gratifying. Call it your prototype. Unity against all odds has made some great games and I'm not saying it's impossible to make good games with it, but Unreal in my opinion gives you the greater amount of creative freedom.

Hi! First of all I would really like to thank for the support and ofcourse all the new viewers that have found this video. I honestly did not think it would become my most popular video by a long shot 😅 I see that I might have left some people puzzled more than before the video. So once I come back from my nice little vacation I will answer all of the questions from the comment section to the best of my abilites(with a video). So if you need further clarification on something or if you are more interested in the topic, ask anything in the comments and I will answer them!

My path: Own Engine (C++) -> Unity (C#) -> Unreal (C++) -> Godot (GDScript/C++). Having experience developing my own engine Godot is the best option for me. In GDScritp, I can easily create a prototype, and if needed, I can extend the functionality of Godot however I need/want (as a C++ dev). Godot might not have advanced features like Unity and Unreal, but it is a greater engine for a hobby, solo dev and small projects. The worst engine of all from my exp - was Unity (sorry I love C++)

I also did quit unreal engine after 3 years and switched to unity and been using it for the last 2 years. But in my case it was because I was using the visual scripting system and I've wanted to do more, wanted to learn C++ but a friend recommended me to learn C# first because its easier and then learn c++ and that's what I did. After learning both, I saw with C# it was easier to also make apps and websites which I wanted to do. So I've switched to Unity so I can use the same language for all 3. Not that C++ couldn't do those, but I just felt that with C# it was just easier. I see this video made you more views than your usual, I think I would do a similar video to tell the story of why I quit Ue.. :)) Anyway wish u all the best!

You haven't jumped into a AAA game engine. You jumped into too big of a project it sounds like. I think this is normal for a lot of aspiring game devs or hobbyists. You really gotta start from the ground up familiarizing yourself. Start with making simple stuff like transforming an objects location, or making a level with doors and keys. If you feel like that's too elementary but you're still stuck, believe me dude I get stuck all the time too. I think everyone that uses ue5 sometimes has to check documentation cause something isn't working how they expected or they don't know how to blueprint their specific use case. but also Unreal Engine is becoming super cluttered with features and some of them, like world partition, can be super frustrating because it causes bugs that you don't really understand and it doesn't clarify on. But trust me dude, we are all in the same boat. Don't give up, just keep doing the research and keep beating your head against the wall. You'll make progress. But like another commenter said, don't burn yourself out. Don't jump into crazy stuff.

Sorry to hear you're having difficulties with unreal engine :/ been using it for over 5 years now and i love it. But it certainly took a long time to learn and I'm still picking up new things every day, and I've probably only touched 30% of it. There are AAA features I'll likely never use just because of all the time they take to learn + being super specific or meant for a quality bar I'm not interested in trying to achieve like their ML deformer houdini workflow.

I wish you'd explain more about the specifics of what you're struggling with. I used Unity for 2 years and left because its technology stack was too fragmented and unsupported (for example, the rendering pipelines). I switched to Unreal. The first year of Unreal was slow. Firstly, I did not learn the Engine properly and tried to take many shortcuts that made life harder for me. I needed to be more disciplined and thoroughly learn all the tools and the libraries through small tests in simple projects. Next, the 2nd year of working in Unreal is where I've seen most of my breakthroughs. There's been exponential progress with my mastery of Unreal. It's an incredible engine that to me seems vastly more feature rich (and stable) than Unity. There's so much to learn. And I think this is good because it means there's lots of tools to use. Good luck on your journey back to Unity. I hope it'll be less frustrating than mine was.

I started up with unreal engine, then I gave unity a try... at some point, I don't know why, all the GameObjects moved to random positions (many of them kind of "grouped together" at same location). I tried to undo, but it didn't work. The scene simply got to a chaotic state out of nowhere. Even though I hadn't saved the scene, when I closed and reopened it, it was saved somehow. Unfortunately I hadn't any kind of version control at the time.. there was absolutely nothing I could do (since we don't have access to the source code). Then I got back to unreal. I can't trust unity anymore

Hey, hope you'll get some rest, it sounds like a burn out: I also had this feeling of not even being able to open a program, after some rest and re-organising my work hours, I'm back at it again

Hello there! First good job so far on this project, I feel you and how hard it can be to keep it up! I think what you're experiencing is not much an engine issue but more a burnout and mindset challenge. Unreal Engine is not a hard engine, it's a long to learn engine. 1 year learning it is actually quite short, even if you were full time in it. I myself needed 3 years to start feel comfortable and confident with it. Or maybe because I'm a slow learner haha. I wish you the best going back to Unity, I come from there actually! We moved to Unreal 4 years ago. The refreshing time where you're happy to be in Unity passed, I think you will experience other lot of issues as there is not perfect game engine out there. But the most important thing above all is you enjoy your journey and you're having fun. If you can achieve this in Unity better, let's go!! Have a good one!

C++ will slow down your development time 3x.

I've used Unreal, Unity, and Godot, and I've settled on Godot for all my projects. The reason is because I used blender for years, and I saw how fast it developed as an open source project. Also at uni we were taught about the dangers of propriety software, which has played out in front of our eyes. Open source software is forever. Like you said Unreal is a pain just to open. Godot opens in seconds. It's strange that you chose this time to switch to Unity, considering all the drama

I'm a Unity indie dev. Maybe in the future we could team up on a project.

good luck with your game dev journey, ever thought about giving godot a try ?

No I wasn't watching your for the Unreal Engine, I am here for the learning vibe, the experimental process and rookie energy, that was what I am here for, so no I don't think I am going away because of switching the engines.

Oh man its been a while, last time i checked you were still making your C++ game so regardless of your engine decisions it seems you've grown as a gamedev and come a long way. Good job.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Move to godot now muheheehehehehe

I want your help on this project actually i am making a breakout game aswell for my semester finals and i need to implement all oop concepta and smfl in this but i am getting alot of logical errors if you can help me ont it this it would be great help as my submission is tomorrow and i dont know how to solve it 😢

can i get the code

Good to see u again when will u going to do live
