I have created ultrakill fan game. The game is about a machine sent by humans to hell to gather information about the terrain. Hell is a dangerous place, so you are equipped with a blaster for self-defense. The main objective is to gather information about the terrain. The secondary objective is to KILL EVERYONE WHO CROSSES YOUR PATH. This is only demo, so the project is not very big. The name of my game is "INFERNAL MAYHEM". link to download the game: https://lastbreath622.itch.io/infernal-mayhem
slate python
Alright I've completed it, and here's what i have to say about it.
Overall, its decent, not too good, nor too bad.
First of all, I should talk about the guns. They feel nice to shoot. They have enough recoil and visual feedback that make them feel good.
But at the same time they do have their issues.
The pistol is simply too slow, its better to just punch the enemy instead of shooting them.
Also, the blue emmisive effect on the gun sometimes dissapears, but its no big deal.
It combos well with the second weapon, the shotgun.
There's no cooldown on weapon change, which for me is nice, but for some may be offputting.
But the lack of cooldown causes a bug. When shooting and changing the weapon at the same time, it causes the next selected gun to shoot twice.
The last weapon in the demo is the minigun, which can completely replace both of the previous weapons.
It has no overheat as far as I know, so you can just walk around gunning down everything that moves.
You of course tried to limit that by reducing the movement speed, but it just feels... meh.
An overheating system would improve the gun tenfold. But that doesn't mean that you have to remove the slowdown system completely.
When the player changes the weapon to the minigun, they are moving faster in the air, due to the weight of the gun.
It could really work well as a movement tech and give the player more mobility.
Other things I wanna talk about are some minor things like UI and style.
First of all, typo.
horrible oh so horrible, it caused me to break my own arm.
Upon finishing the level, there is an end screen.
Its neat, but it feels SO EMPTY.
It would be better if it had a doom 1 style map, or some lore stuff informing the player about the world or what awaits for him.
After all, the mc goes to hell for information.
Something like this.
Next thing is the artstyle in general.
I can see the clear inspiration by ULTRAKILL, the last levels of Chapter 2 or whatever.
It has that gothic red style. But in your game, it just feels TOO red.
Try to cleanse the pallete with some lighter and duller colours.
Or perhaps make the key rooms the colour of the keys or whatever, that might work.
The other thing is how in the first level the doors blend in with the environment.
I've had to hug walls to find a way further.
It can be simple fixed by adding a light source nearby the door, changing the texture to a different colour, and adding other frequently used clues.
And lastly, the level design.
A lot of geometry in the map is misaligned
Its REALLY not ok to me, and probably wont be to the others.
Also, this.
There are A LOT of spots where enemies can't reach the player.
But it can be fixed by adding some geometry that connects the platforms, or by programming them to jump.
The latter option is more time consuming, so its better to just take examples from other games and their level design to get inspired by.
Remember that its ok to use some ideas from other titles you personally enjoy.
Speaking of enemies.
They are ok.
But there's a problem with the imp-like shooting guys.
Some of them just stand still all the time, even though they do the walking animation.
propbably they are just getting stuck in the geometry. Can be easily fixed by raising their spawn point or somethin.
And the last thing about the enemies is the final boss.
If you just get behind him, he can't shoot you, he can only use his mouth fireball attack.
I reccomend extending the invisible wall that doesn't let the player go into the exit door a bit further.
And lastly, the movement.
Its meh.
Mostly because some of its mechanics are underdeveloped.
Ground pound is almost useless, I only used it like three times.
It doesn't lift the enemies into the air, it simply kills them if you land on them.
And it would've been fine, but the ground pound doesn't actually track when the player lands.
The player can literally be in the air, and it will act like there's floor under them.
It is seen best when jumping down into the boss room.
And lastly, the slide.
Its a toggle slide instead of a hold slide.
And its SO F A S T.
But the main problem of it is the toggle slide. You have to press the button again to stop sliding.
And of course, there’s a clear reason behind it.
If the player stops sliding in a tight space, they get stuck with no way out.
In conclusion:
It’s was a pretty decent demo, but still VERY raw and underdeveloped.
Spend more time on it, try to fix the things I’ve mentioned, and most importantly, have fun with it.
Because there’s NO secrets in there.
Like, no funny images to be found.
Anyways, wish you luck and to have a good time with this thing.

@slate python, thanks for testing my game! I am glad that you told me about bugs and your opinion
But I don't think about continuing this game. First of all, it looks like a clone of Ultrakill. I don't really want my game to be just a clone, that is why I will start the new project. I want my next game to be something special. Of course, that was quite good experience. That is why my next game will be much better.

According to stackoverflow, this is the C# version:
await ToSignal(GetTree(), "process_frame");
Cool cool!
tranquil oracle
looked it up and this is how you do it in c#
wtf
surely that's not the optimal solution and is just something that works
It's await ToSignal(GetTree(), SceneTree.SignalName.ProcessFrame);, looks like
I still hate it
also _PhysicsProcess being async seems like a bad idea, because it's a void-returning function, so it can't capture exceptions properly and you'll potentially end up with multiple running instances of the method on different threads
Think of it this way: _Process represents a single frame, _PhysicsProcess represents a single physics frame. By making either of those functions async, this expectation is completely broken and the functions will potentially run over multiple frames instead.

continuing work with that character controller
I've gotten a lot of weird behavior ironed out or "just working", which I'm quite happy with. The one thing that seems to make it explode is edges of angled brushes, though.
I believe it's because the collision angle doesn't check which face was hit and use that normal, but rather actually do the math to make the collider bounce off the edge, which is great for every controller but the one I'm writing

Thinking about changing the way weapons work in Snowdown, making them more like powerups than weapons. When a player picks one up it puts out a message "player has picked up the BRUTE" or whatever and it has a fixed amount of ammo that can't be refilled. Like you would pick it up and it has 8 shots, and once all 8 shots are expended the weapon is gone. If a player holding a weapon gets frozen they drop the weapon and someone else is able to take it to use for the remaining number of shots
I think I wan the focus of the combat to mostly rely on the snowball, icicle, and shovel, with the other weapons being more like a "rare high moment"

It's weird to describe what it's doing, like it starts out correct, but then when you turn 90 degrees, it's the opposite of the way it was forward, then completely backwards it's the same way it started as?
crimson tapir
I think I found the problem but I don't know how to fix it or how it seems like nobody else had this issue with seemingly the exact same code
For some reason facing forward and backward is treated as the same wish_dir
Nvm, I just plugged input_dir directly into the function and that seems to work now for some reason, "it just works"
cunning wing
It's weird to describe what it's doing, like it starts out correct, but then wh...
is it because the movement is relative to the world and not the player
crimson tapir
Yeah, I figured that out, eventually, lol
After looking at the picture I made again I thought "...wait hold on"

Does Qodot automatically add colliders to the imported meshes?
azure flume
Yes
humble dagger
So, the beauty of transform.basis is you can just multiply the velocity vector by your eye transform to move the way you want
You don't need to have get_global_transform for wish dir either, just using the raw input values would be fine
crimson tapir
Thank you, I go it now, the movement is back (although sledding physics had to be pretty heavily changed because for some reason slopes over 30 degrees would send you too the moon with the old code, lol)
Just made it so the added speed from going down hill is multiplied by gravity divided by the angle of the slope squared divided by 150 and now it works perfectly
Had to pull out the graphing calculator to come up with that formula, lol
drowsy escarp
Does anyone know how to prevent movement from reseting horizontal velocity?
Im trying to make it so the player can slide jump, but once the player leaves the slide state, the movement of the normal state resets horizontal velocity
tranquil oracle
Store two separate velocity values, one for slide and one for normal, and then combine them together in your update
So then you can null out slide velocity without affecting movement velocity
drowsy escarp
this would also be used for something like rocket jumping
inner shuttle
Also, why is Z backwards, why did they do that?
this one is a funny one
so Godot uses the same GetVector func for both 3D and 2D
but there's a problem
in 2D, the Y axis is inverted
this is because Y going down is "natural" (like gravity) and jumping or flying is "unnatural" (since it's not the physically accurate state)
but, that poses an issue
when getting a 2D vector in 2D, binding an up key to negative makes some sense
but then you run into the issue of this thing getting converted to 3D editor
so since Z in 3D is basically Y in 2D, both axes are inverted
it's very confusing to some people
i have basically grown up with it
(started using Godot 4 years ago at like, 16, I am now 20)
fast vault
And then there's Blender where -Y is forward
crimson tapir
this one is a funny one
Huh, fascinating
inner shuttle
how are you finding Godot so far EonOrange
crimson tapir
Liking it so far
I'm a fan of how you can drag objects from the hierarchy directly into a script
inner shuttle
Yeah that's a GDScript integration
a benefit of Godot using a domain-specific language instead of a general purpose one
I personally work with Godot C# (but that's because I'm working with people who write C#)
Godot can look semi-servicable if need be, I did some minimal setup and it's okay
obv if I made more textures and added more detail it'd look better
But alas I am not yet at the point I can just make 200 textures and start decorating stuff
Oh also important thing if you're making any kind of first person game
Godot by default will do mouse acceleration
If you want to disable it, set Input.UseAccumulatedInput to false

I personally work with Godot C# (but that's because I'm working with people who ...
Neat, I've been using C# for probably close to 7 years now, I just wanted to do something different now
inner shuttle

crimson tapir
If you want to disable it, set `Input.UseAccumulatedInput` to false
Ah, ok will do
inner shuttle
Also another feature which isn't really documented but improves dev experience by a fair bit
Export var suffixes
Stuff like this
[ExportCategory("Player Movement")]
[ExportGroup("Walking")]
[Export(PropertyHint.Range, "0, 1024, 1, suffix:u")]
private int _speed = 196;
[Export(PropertyHint.Range, "0, 1000, 1, suffix:‰")]
private int _airControl = 15;
[Export]
private int _acceleration = 10;
you can add "suffix:<your_unit>" to add a unit suffix
you need to specify a propertyhint
but if you don't want a specific propertyhint you can also do
[Export(PropertyHint.None, "suffix:s")] private float _time;
Oh, so that's the Godot equivalent of [serializablefield]
inner shuttle
mhm and ExportGroup is the equivalent of [Header]
crimson tapir
Neat
inner shuttle
You can even do things like bitflags with export hints
look
[Export(PropertyHint.Flags, "Melee, Pistol, Shotgun, Super Shotgun, Blaster, Nailgun")]
private int _flagsWeaponsUnlock = 1 + (1 << 1) + (1 << 2);
oh yeah and you can specify a prefix for a specific ExportGroup
That basically removes the prefix from the inspector view
but keeps it in code

# if it is a wall, not slope
if slope > MAX_ANGLE:
# get the angle between the normal and velocity

# slide the velocity vector along the wall
velocity.slide(normie)
# calculate bounce dampening based on angle

# don't bother if it's 0, it does nothing

Also, I mentioned I wanted to cut back the number of planned game modes to only modes that can work on any map and have an indeterminate number of teams, so here's the ideas for what could be included:
Freeze tag: The main mode, turn into an ice cube on death, get unfrozen by getting freed by a team mate smacking you with the snow shovel, when everyone on a team is frozen they are eliminated
Deathmatch: well duh
Elimination: Similar to freeze tag, but you have a set number of lives and unfreeze automatically, expending a life, last team or player standing wins
Hat Taker: Pick up "hats" from frozen enemies (number of hats they're holding + 1) and the player or team to be holding onto X number of hats at once wins
Ball Hog: A football spawns at a random spot on the map, you cannot attack, but are given slight health regen, speed boost, and double jump when you have the football, football can be thrown and is dropped on freeze, the team or player who holds onto it for X length of time wins
Yeti Hunter: One player is randomly assigned to the neutral team as the "Yeti" and the other teams/players compete to kill the yeti. The yeti has one life but a ton of health and high damage attacks, hunters have normal stats and 3 lives. The yeti wins if he's the last standing, or if the yeti dies the team or player that killed the yeti wins (this one is the least likely to be implemented)
Red Rover: When you freeze another player they come back on your team, once everyone is on one team the game ends (Not sure how an actual "winner" would be determined here, maybe some kind of "team captain" system? Where the captain doesn't switch teams, only the non-captian plebs do)
Gun Game: Also duh

here’s my sloppy awful shit i made on construct
it is still a prototype
but yea there are 3 issues in the game
- the enemies can’t jump, get stuck on your head and will twitch erratically when directly under and over you
- they spawn in the walls
- there’s no visual clarity for where the monster spawns and you have no time to react

I think it looks great, any Doomsday representation is a W in my book, only thing I could think of to change is maybe add some more detailing in the white area, like these vent looking lines the rocket has on its side
But even if it was added just the way it is, would still easily be a top 5 warpaint for me

so for 3d models in godot, should I use fbx or gLtf?
fast vault
Gltf is the recommended for godot. Sometimes, animations in an fbx file won't import properly
Though fbx seems to be fine if you're only importing non-aninated meshes

gltf is very good, I wish someday it replaces that fbx dump

IDK if this method is a good idea, but I managed to have different hit effects for what you hit by using metadata

what this does is make it so certain things have a unique effect when shot

never worked in 3d for godot but i feel like groups would be your best bet either way

so one group for stone, another for metal and so on?
or just a single node for every surface?

PROBABLY LOUD since yall use godot, i was wondering what i could do to fix the audio problem im having? when theres too many enemies on screen, their audio stacks and becomes super bassy and loud, even after i added a limiter to the master bus. anything else i could do to make it quieter?

After messing around with my trick ramps a bit more I've come to the conclusion that having the camera flip around like that while doing tricks in first person is too disorienting, and I'll just simplify it back to doing preset animations when you press space
There's absolutely a reason all the snowboarding games are in 3rd person, lol
I think the Mario Kart approach of just having the character do an animation and get a speed boost when they press jump at the right time would be better suited for this
Man, this arena shooter is starting to have a weirdly high number of similarities to Mario Kart

For some reason when I lower the resolution, the hud doesnt scale down with it. How do I make it scale with resolution?
because otherwise some of it will be cut off on lower resolutions

Maybe manually shrink the canvas node's scale to fit it when the resolution is set?
Or I'd imagine on the canvas node there's some sort of "scale with screen size" property

this is what they look like as of now, but the design is kinda bad
as of now, they have a similar moveset to spyro
they can fly with their (as of now not modeled) magic paintbrush
and shoot paint with said brush
its based on old ps1 games, and several art styles

Well, if he's an artist with a paintbrush, maybe make him look a bit more like a painter than a wizzard

pastel, renaissance, surrealism, impressionist, and abstract are the worlds in order
thats the thing, all of the worlds have races for each, and black with yellow eyes is the race in the first world
and I'm at a loss for design wise for them

Maybe give him a painter apron thing over his robes
Add some little splotches of paint onto his clothes
Give him a tool belt with smaller brushes or other art tools on it

Plans for the game:
5 Episodes with 9 levels each
1st episode takes place in the factory where the main character laid decommissioned
2nd episode takes place in the remains of civilization, in form of ruined cities
3rd episode takes place in a vast nuclear plant
4th episode takes place in a nuclear winter, in a desert
5th episode takes place in a huge temple-like laboratory
Endless mode, with 5 maps dedicated to 5 episodes
Maybe deathmatch? (If I can pull it off in Construct 2)
I think I’ll stick with at least 2 episodes and the endless mode for now because the other points seem too ambitious

Yes. Indeed, Godot. It IS an int. So then what's your problem?
Also, why does gdscript not support unsigned integers? Literally for what reason?

Oh yeah I had a similar problem before. Idk how I fixed it but it was related to some scene being preloaded which was apparently a bug

This error happens well after the scene is loaded and players are already moving around though
It doesn't seem to have any particular cause either, it doesn't consistently fail on the same number, seems totaly random

Ok, I think I've figured out the best possible client prediction topology
client does movement code
sends position and current tick to everyone
all other clients who are not the server blindly accept and interpolate the player to that position
the server does this too, but first records where the player was beforehand
calculates if that is within an acceptable range of where the player theoretically could be
if so, just cary on
if not send a retraction to all clients, including the original player to go back to where the server says the player should be
That way as long as they are not cheating or seriously lagging, there should seem to be zero delay for anyone
