Gotta be 100% honest, that whole framing trick with the composition lines really blew my mind.

One thing I find very important is making the design consistent. So finding a style and than using it for everything instead of having different styled assets in your Game
I’d say the one thing left unfixed would be the pushable block. It looks just like the environment, and it wasn’t obvious enough that it could be moved.
Please can we spam these videos for another lighting tutorial all the lighting tutorials are two three years old and so much has changed please can we have a newer tutorial as your last one was 2017
@@sirdoosh5935 Agreed. They've been doing too many C# tutorials that are already covered in depth by hundreds, if not thousands, of other sources. Meanwhile, many of their tutorials about actually useful things are aging out due to changes. Sadly, even Unity themselves have this issue. Many of their docs/tutorials are also years out of date. Fingers crossed.
😥 Brackeys is my most favourite youtube channel ever. I was going to take photo with you in brackeys studio some day. Good bye man! You really hit my heart as a teacher.
This dude helped me a lot! I started game development with his videos and made a game that downloaded more than 50.000.000!!! Love you man, appropriated!
Patelniczek . It is an mobile game called draw car! We published that one with voodoo and it went huge! My first video is about that game check it out!
Funny how I was thinking of making a script of sorts as to why I love the color wheel. This video really helps and is indeed entertaining & good to look at! Nice job!
Love the details in this video. Color is especially hard to get right. My problem with the box being the same color as the background is that I didn’t know it was interactive. Even a subtle difference would go a long way.
12:17 Nice a blender guru shoutout! I've always wanted you 2 to do a collab together because the master of blender and the master of unity could really make some cool stuff together!
IDK I'm the opposite. When he added that jagged ceiling, I just felt claustrophobic. My attention wasn't really brought to the box (it was still on the coins) and if I played this level, I'd have not realized it was a box until I accidentally pushed it.
I am a little sad that I did not find out earlier about your videos. But still so thankful for keeping them up! They are incredible learning resources!
We need a unity particle system tutorial like this one. Thanks a lot for this video Brackeys! i have been struggling with making my games look aesthetic for a long time
Starts like a video of good-looking games and finishes treating topics of how to conveying goals, roles and meanings in the level. Just awesome dude, high quality👌💯💯
Adobe color is a godsend, you know how many times I looked up complimentary colors and manually checked how they looked next to each other? Can't believe it never came up once when I was searching around.
Brackeys I really want to say thank you cuz me and my team were really trying to make a game called Neon Abyss and you were the one who helped us with alll of this and now we have a game called Neon Abyss it is already out
Light is underrated in my opinion. There's 4 kinds of light in my opinion that are most important for any game: Real time lighting. Baked lighting. Colored lighting. and Light probes. There's scenes with static lights where baked lighting is best, looks great and saves performance, what's not to love. Real time should be scarce and not as detailed but it moves so yay. There's also pre calculated baked lighting which is a simulated moving light, though you still can't pre bake lighting and shadows from leafs going up and down. Colored lighting is a peeve of mine. Imagine an artwork or movie where the streets are grey but in the shade of the night they turn blue. Or a blue dark road turns purple. It affects the setting a lot, though I have trouble figuring out how to make these blends or how to make them work in a game well. Finally light probes. Want objects and the player to take in detailed light effects bouncing from the surroundings but you can't use real time lighting? Light probes. Small balls that collect data from their surroundings and when the player comes into the area then the data is used to simulate the lighting effects. Emission is pre baked and sadly it looks so good. But you most likely, i'm not sure. But you should be able to use light probes to still get the effect to work on the player and other moving objects even though they are exclusively made for static objects as baked lighting.
Great tutorial! I would also add that the cube is still not looking interactible and is blending with the environment. I would add a simple texture on to the cube just to make it clear it can move, something like a cracked rock texture.
Hey brackeys, I started off learning unity last month due to the free time i got from this whole pandemic situation, and your videos have been soo helpful! Thank you for this!!
And the main gameplay element, aka the moving crate, is still ground color... Adding a light that barely changes anything (green in jungle) can be a perf hog. Dont get me wrong, I liked the video. It's just that in all the audience, someone might forget that *all* gameplay elements should have a highlight and that in game development, you can't add lights just for the principle.
Just some lil tipps, allways keep your vision for the game in mind, only a few art styles can work for your game for example but only one can convey the emotions you wanna create inside of the players mind. So pick/create the artstyle, which works for your game. But at the same time keep artistic vision vs. playablility in mind. The more experimental you go, the more likely you'll come up with an artstyle not that nice for the eyes or bad for the gameplay. Of course this depends on your game genre and the type of players playing it. But especially people with glasses or any other vision problem will have a hard time enjoying your game when the artstyle is just a mess of distortion or so. Allways think as the player and the gamedev when making the asthetics. And less is more so come with with a handful of core concepts for the artstyle and just add some lil details, keep things simple.
the other reason that the guide lines emphesize the box is because the playable space is narrow enough that you cannot move your eyes through it without noticing the box. the big empty ceiling allowed the box to look like floor, but the cramped hallway made it clear that the box was anomalous.
Another way that I make color pallettes is I find my favorite game that creates the type of emotion that I want, I screenshot it, I open a paint program called paint (dot) net, Aesprite, or any program with the eyedropper tool; I get the eyedropper tool, I abstract the general COLORS of the scene, and then use those colors; not the items, but I use those COLORS to create my sprites, etc. Even though I make my own sprites, the colors I use conveys the same emotion that my favorite game conveys. I might make my own tutorial about this where I explain this is in more detail.
Great tips, lights and composition are topics that are always underestimated and you explained them in the simplest way possible from the game developer's point of view 👏👏👏

Things that slowly float up and down in a small space tend to say "collect meee" in my mind
