    It's amusing you chose a cowboy since Koji Igarashi, godfather of the term, likes to wear cowboy hats.

    Making your game feel good also means skewing the odds in favor of the player. For instance, when designing a hitbox for an enemy, it's better to make the hitbox slightly larger, making the enemy easier to hit, rather than too small and frustratingly difficult to target. When in doubt, always prioritize making the game easier for the player, not harder.

    scratch is my go to bc the visual code is easier for me to process and the parameters help me know what I can do (if that makes sense). This physically hurt 😭😭 (don’t feel bad. Don’t have my old account but I’m 90% sure my first game wasn’t even functional

  • @azaria_phd
    @azaria_phd 11 днів тому

    The last tip is the most important. You have to find the balance between good code and writing it fast. If you write trash you'll regret it soon as your project becomes an unmaintenable mess, but if you try to write the best code you'll lose weeks doing the work you could've done in a day with no real benefits.

      @Gambit-YT 19 днів тому

      I had used a node2D with a color rects attached. When I click it sets the rectangles positions wide, then in process it lerps the position back to the original position. It’s position is set to “get_global_mouse_position()” It was a little overkill and took much longer than I wanted but I eventually got it to work!
