Great vid man, trying to get a game started myself but struggling. I have some feedback tho. I noticed the hammer swing animation at the start, and it looks kinda sluggish. I'm guessing the hammer is quite heavy, but something doesn't look quite right. I think the animation could be sped up in general just a little, but maybe go slower while he's lifting the hammer, and then faster as the hammer swings down. Don't have to take it if you don't agree, but that's just something that I noticed. :)

tip dont use that font in thumbnails it might be missleading

Really interesting video! Though I'd suggest you some corrections on how you're handling the quests: Making duplicates is not ideal if you're going to repeat the quests, as it would cause an increase in memory use. If you're not handling that many quests, it's not a big deal, but it's important to make sure the "old" resource is not in use anymore. To make things simpler I would have used the move_quest_to_pool() method to remove it from the completed pool, making it easier to reuse the same resource and avoid duplicates. That said, an optional setting to allow starting already completed quests is surely something to add to the plugin. Again, nice video! ⭐

This is awesome, All the best for journey, I want to also start game Dev in godot. Can you give me any lead? I make games in Unity and Pygame for now.

Nice video

wow, it must be good if you only have 500 subs and are getting sponsored lol! Good Job

Weird question but how did you score a sponsorship being a relatively smaller channel? I don’t mean to sound condescending, I’m simply curious

Thanks for the shoutout - much appreciated. ❤

:)

your such a good gamedev yt your so underrated it makes me mad

tbh everytime im not liking something im doing i restart and it AWAYS ends up better than before. never tried it with a game, but like, songs, Drawing, animation, it aways worked

me also a big dum dum 0:50

Are those placeholder sprites? Or are you the same guy that worked on "The Way Home) mobile game?

I hope you enjoy the game yourself as much as the process of making it! I recently tried remaking a game but i realized i wasnt having fun so now im making one that feels great everytime i finish a feature.

Loved the video, Quick question. how the hell are you sponsored as a 400 sub youtuber!

I was writing a personal finance tracker and first changed from text-based Java to Windows Forms C#, full restart. I worked on that on and off for two years and then my hard drive got corrupted. Another full restart, no backups. I rewrote the whole program in four months way better than the previous two attempts. Sometimes a step backwards helps you see a better path, sometimes it lets you implement new knowledge. I like where your at and I'm glad the tangent helped you come back to what you want to do with fresh energy!

This game looks like so much fun! Hope to see you continue it!!!

i don't know why but in your videos I can't watch the video 480p it's very important for me because I'm in a dorm room and the internet makes the videos hard to watch

To be honest i think restarting games is a good idea as long as there is actually something to fix/change

Just found this video, the game mechanics sounds really cool! I'd say that would be better to have more than one stack in the inventory if reaching 99 is something that could happen easily. Anyway thanks for the shout out with Quest System! (also, yeah you pronounced the name correctly)

good story telling and smart editing, just do the game now

Been there, done that. I've kinda of wasted my time before becoming a father, now I don't have the energy with two kids (which, when you are putting in the effort as a parent, is project management hell itself!) I've started various endeavours (Voice acting, (pixel) art / animation, recently "thought" about feasible game ideas in terms of scope), but I cannot bring myself to keep going after an initial attempt. At least programming will be no issue, being a programmer. Might be just that for now. Working, after work it's pretty much more work and chores until 9pm, when you just want to slump down.

Having an art backgroud made it easier for me to think of game ideas, because i knew how to apply the ideas i had artistically. Programming is my 2° biggest issue, my first is making music wich i'm still bad at.

Funny how outsourcing and finding free stuff on the internet into a game can be so simple and so alluring. But when trying make everything by yourself, it becomes a colossal task, especially when it comes to 3D development. Learning 3D game logic, modeling 3D asset, 3D sound design. I swear, the human mind is not capable of being a solo game developer unless you're super efficient and talented, not for the mentally weak, I mean.

5 things I suck at when it comes to game dev: - Everything - I'm so bad at everything - Please help me - Why do I like this - How do I enjoy this

neat - good to be honest with your self.

bro thought he could make that joke in the beggining and we wouldn't notice "game dev is hard. If you've even tried to make a game, you DEVinately know this" great video tho

Lovely video

Most project management software is made for teams so it's easier to assign and manage tasks across a team. If you're solo you really only need the bare minimum of whatever it takes to stay on task and not forget what you have to do later. I like trello just because it feels more organized to drag a finished task to a different area, but I've also just used checklists in obsidian plenty of times in the past. Game balance is incredibly hard literally everyone messes it up across the entire industry, that's why most solo devs should probably pick a genre that is easy to test by yourself and iterate on quickly. If you try to make a game like Civilization or something I think you simply NEED playtesters or design your game in a way that it's fun even if it's unbalanced af. When it comes to finishing a game, finishing takes a reeaaaaally long time if you're putting in the proper polish, the last 20% takes 80% of the time as they say. In terms of enjoyment and improving skills making lots of prototypes is usually the way to go. If you want to finish something then I'd recommend a very small project which you know for sure you have the skills to confidently complete. Otherwise only try to finish something if you truly believe in it.

I'm one of those artists who is also a game dev. Pixel art makes me want to throw things, if I'm honest. So does the fact that it has essentially become synonymous with indie game art in general. Pixel art is, in my opinion, super hard because youre imposing additional restrictions on how your art is conducted. Its like using a limited amount of colors, in a way, but more extreme. Theres probably a term for it I'm forgetting. I guess it makes things easier for some people, but I am not one of those people. I'm still learning my way around Godot, and my personal biggest struggle is just finding resources that arent saying the same thing over and over. There are a million beginner "first game" tutorials out there, but once you get slightly past that point, you feel like you're drowning. It's very fun as a hobby, but man most programmers are not teachers and it shows. I'm glad to see someone else who is iffy on the whole marketing and "selling a million copies" thing. It seems like a lot of advice is geared towards making development a career as fast as possible. I've actually noticed a lot of similar problems in the art community, where it's automatically treated as a job once you start to care about it. Art also has the tutorial issue as well. I personally really like your art. Its cute and you do especially well with color choice. Don't sell yourself short and make sure to make things you find fun as well. ^-^ Only doing exercises, practice and final pieces can make art more stressful than it needs to be. Try to let loose and have fun with it when you can. It will help art feel more like a creative process and less like a chore.

The best project management technique is the simplest one, and in my case it's a paper notebook and pen next to my keyboard. Every day when you decide to stop working just write down what you're going to do next time you sit down at your desk as a bulletpoint list. That's it, and it works. The rest takes care of itself by you making that list at the end of every day - it self-rights your path to finishing a project.

You said you almost forgot to make the game public... That's exactly what I did on my first game jam a few weeks ago! Made a whole video about it... 🤣 Happy you didn't make that same mistake! Nice video!

Hey, the game is very cool, even i'm not a big fan of such type of games. The moment i realised i ll be a huge mommy boss and just destroy everyone 🤌The only thing is that i'm very bad at dodging and if u basicly made main hero immortal i d be playing it non stop till night, it's pretty addictive. in my opinion

7:16 sick setup bro

you should do tutorials... LOVE YOUR WORK

This was a really cool video! Thank you for making it!

What's the sound wave of you have framed in that room?

Absolutely loved your demo. This was really fun. Also, the music and sound effects work really well I disagree with you. Also the economy is busted but I'm sure thats just because its early and unbalanced.

Hey so I tried the game since I love roguelikes and tycoons, and while I wanna say I like where the game is going, I feel like the concept itself is fine, but there are some things that are both confusing and annoying. I know this might get fixed later and maybe u already got this same feedback, but it never hurts to say my opinion I hope. I'm not gonna comment on the amount of content because it's clearly a very early alpha version, but there is something in the design that I feel like u really need to figure out, and that's the fact that the dungeon HAS to be linear. This is an issue in 2 levels imo. One problem is with the randomly generated potions. I had a situation where 2 of them spawned next to each other and there was no way of grabbing them because the only one that I could get access to was the right-most one for some reason. I also had a situation where a potion was right next to the exit, so I just connected my dungeon to that and hit start, but I lost because I didn't notice that the potion room was NOT connected to the exit for some reason. The other issue that I feel like exists is that making it a whole corridor limits your options way too much. Even if u had 100 different rooms, if you can only lay them in a line, there won't be much to do. Therefore, it would be nice to maybe have branching paths and maybe have something like artifacts that could give the hero information on what path is the fastest one, or where is the treasure or stuff like that. Another option would be to make the heroes have personalities, so if they are a completionist they don't leave until the whole dungeon is explored and stuff like that. Regarding the hunger system, I don't feel like its a bad idea, but I really feel like an option of either adding areas like the potions but for food, or some other way of regaining hunger are needed. I also feel like since traps only take 1 hp and don't really risk losing time like puzzles, they are WAY too op, but that's basically what u mentioned in the video. As a potential balancing solution, maybe make monsters drop more gold and puzzles have potential for healing could be an option? As a last feedback, I am not sure if I imagined, but I think my hero went over max hp with the potions, since I saw him getting hit and not losing any hp on the bar, but I might have seen that wrongly so take it with a grain of salt. Anyway, I hope u continue the project and I already subscribed to keep up with ur work. Have a great day! On a side note, loading screens are ungodly long for such a simple game, u should probably take a look at that at some point, although it might be a browser issue.

Found this while researching behavior trees, great video! Keep up the good work, really enjoyed how chill this was!

looks cool! sorry I didn't watch the first video so if this comment is repetitive I apologize. I think the time for the hero to complete the dungeon way too long, from just the one video you showed it took about twice the time for the hero to run through the dungeon as it did for you to setup the tiles, and I don't think you setup the tiles very quickly. Right now this is wandering a bit into idle game territory but without the automation I feel like that could get kind of tiresome. Games like Loophero require quite a bit of constant management to offset this issue, and games like super auto pets have a way for the player to skip through the summery phase.

Can you summarize what the hunger system is supposed to achieve? Maybe condensing the idea and goal of the system into one or two sentences will help you with thinking on how to improve it

Second time's the charm! I accidentally uploaded the wrong video file like an idiot and then immediately flew off to New York for a week so I couldn't reupload immediately. Sorry for the weirdness!

really a nice idea, this genre needs new things :)

did u have discord

This is such a cool concept - great work!

Would love to see a full video about the data collection. Cool video!

Liked and subscribed, mate! Good luck in your gamedev journey!

love what you're doing here! i just watched through all of your videos and am definitely looking forward to seeing more in the future. i'd be super interested to see some more technical videos breaking down the code behind some of your systems, if that's something you'd be willing to do. i'm just getting in to programming & game development and your videos have been inspirational for me. thank you!
