2 Months of Game Development | Knightly Routine Devlog 

in addition to sleeping, the king asks for food from time to time. a lot of food, if we feed him enough, he gives some buff. the game is very cool

Not only is the game looking great. The editing blows me away. The amount if care put into every detail really shows.

Awesome! One thing: maybe add a damage counter to the dummy so players know how much damage they're doing? Keep up the great work!

This is 100% my new favourite devlog series, so much fun and creativity, it feels like a really great game that you just throw all your best ideas into

For the succ, make a big swooshie cone(?) that comes out of the vacuum like a vortex, and give it a transparent windy texture and scroll the UVS so it looks like the wind texture is sucking in

the talking part is SO COOL. I would never have thought of doing something like that!

Just through this vid I'm seeing the care and effort being made here. I really want to see this lil game succeed, keep it up!

Game is coming along well! also love the video style I can feel your pain of one playtest = 40+ more bugs found. It always feels like a never ending list. Wishlisted the game! Would appreciate a wishlist also (if you have time!). Keep up the great work.

Dude its great to see how far its come so far since the first video! I love coming back and just seeing it get better and better!

Damn its been a while since ive seen a devlog this well done, uve earned urself a sub

This looks awesome! :D I've wishlisted it, can't wait!

Awesome video man your getting better and better with each post

Totally subscribed to appreciate the amount of work you've put into that video and I'm really happy you're enjoying your work! I like the goofy style of the game

The sound design ideas are absolutely hilarious, I love the crazy things you have to do in indie game development!

Absolutely amazing, you put so much work and time in your devlogs, and the game is phenomenal, even though you only get 6 days,its one of the only games i actually had fun playing, keep up the amazing work.

I can't believe how good your videos are. The game itself looks super fun and I love seeing the process, but the editing is incredible!

Very nice. Love the vibe here. I’m trying to achieve the cool/relaxing vibes in my devlogs/game too. Keep it up!

How is your channel so small. Not only are you funny, but you are talented and entertaining at the same time. And that's not even considering the amount of work being put into these videos... Sub from here man.

this looks very well made. I love everything especially all the art and ui

Love your videos, I am working on a survival game too. I Havent gotten to the artistic part myself yet, but as a hobby-3D Artist I really like the soft stile you are going for

Quick Idea :You should make a splash potion (when you upgrade it, it could be like uhh.. Acid, fire, explosives or any bad liquid. You could also buy it from the riverman guy.) Each upgrade would give it a higher radius too You should also be able to fish near the waterfall which could give you random stuff. The armor should get damaged whenever you get hit by the cursed panda. The cursed panda should also have a boss which if you kill unlocks a new tier of armor. In the end... it was not a quick Idea lol😂 Amazing game! I love it! Keep up the great work!

just found your channel and your game looks so much fun with the dialogs

Awesome to see that this project wasn't forgotten! Keep up the work boss! 👍

Looking pretty great! Love the sound effects

wow i found your channel today and this video is a MASSIVE improvement in entertainment from your first ones. youre hilarious dude. i cant wait to play this game!

Wow! Amazing new things, great job! The dialogue was very well done. For the vacuum, you could do make that the particles are few, more random and that they appear from a cone instead of a line/rectangle(that's how I saw it). And congratulations! Seeing your girlfriend want to play more tells you that you're doing an incredible job and progress!

If i can suggest some things, i have quite some : 1. A glider, you can glide, and it can hurt enemies, as you grab the enemy, the spike will hurt the enemies, it can carry both the panda king and the enemies, BUT the enemy can hurt you, and the spike will hurt the panda king 2. A new weapon! Called "SpikeBall", a... well.... spikeball... And some new variations! : A. BluntBall (the first stage of the 3, low damage but fast cooldown) B. WindBall (2nd out of the 3, mid damage, but blows the enemies away, and also mid cooldown) C. TimeBall (3rd out of the 3, high damage, slow cooldown, and can lays spikes around the Ball after 5 seconds on the ground, with high damages spikes, but the Ball only lays 8 spikes per use) 3. A NEW NPC!1!1!1! It's a Trader/Enchanter, it can trade your item for another item, and it can also sharpen your weapons, its name could be "Jack Honeymoon" or "Sir. Tradington" 4. 2nd weapon, its literally just a bamboo stick, on Fire stick, its called "FlameBoo", yet again, 3 variations : A. FireStick (low damage, slow cooldown, can attract the dark pandas to it, and can slowly burn the dark pandas) B. Flaml (low damage, fast cooldown, bigger radius to attract the dark pandas, can set the ground on fire) C. Foolcano (Super high damage, suuuuuuupeeeeeeeeeeer slow cooldown, attracts dark pandas close to the king, burns the dark pandas instantly) 5. A helper panda, called "Atlethic Panda", when the dark panda is carrying the panda king, the Atlethic panda will catch the king and toss him to you like a rugby player, and a minigame will start called "Catch and Toss", when it starts, every dark panda will chase you around, and when they get close to you, toss the king panda to the Atlethic panda, and your goal is to juke the dark pandas, and put the king back in his throne which ends the minigame, but the dark pandas is still there, which brings me to the second panda helper! 6. "Ninja Panda" will disguise itself as a Dark Panda, as he will grab a hold of the king panda, and run away to put him back to the throne. And the Ninja Panda will help you defeat the dark Pandas

Wow what a great devlog! Youve added and changed so much! Also, considering the weapons going through walls problem, idk about unreal but in unity i use a seperate first person camera that only renders the weapons, and this forces the weapons to always be rendered on top of everything. Cheers!

Finally back..

This project looks great! I'm invested.

the game looks great! the devlog was really interesting. thanks keep it up!!

I don’t know if someone already suggested this or not but maybe like you can see the wood getting sucked into the vacuum? Like little wood chunks getting sucked in to the vacuum.

FeedBack Sent ! Hope It will not be a pain to read as I'm not fluent in english. It's really cool to try it, it must be a bit scary to open your game to everyone like this !

Aw I love the chest open/close animation!

This game looks amazing! Ive been watching devlogs for a few years now but have never come across your channel. One thing I feel would be cool in this game is adding fun facts during loading screens, maybe about pandas or mushrooms! I always love when games do that haha. Good luck on the game im wishlisting it now!

Amazing progress cant wait for the game

Was here from the start. The game has come so far!

I love your videos and have watched everyone of them (I think this is the first time of me being late to one of your uploads). But I think an outline shader would be great for your game (For everything not just npcs and such)! I just added an outline shader before watching this to my next full project and it made a WORLD of difference! I also took awhile looking for an outline shader that would work with unity hdrp because 99% of the tutorials were for urp. PS: I loved your intro!

game looks really cute, love the lil animations and jokes

shawcat its your long lost brother, im stuck in an oil rig out in the atlantic, my men are disappearing and im hearing strange noises coming from the sea

For sure buying this when it comes out!

This is hellaaa goooood , looove it !!!!!!!!

Well done on the editing

It’s looking amazing so far! I think you should add customisation to your panda, like instead of black and whit e you could do blue and white and other colours. Or maybe you can customise the king? Looking forward to seeing the next update!

Great videos, great game, great life, great comment

Since you like animating you should make it so whenever the king's bar is going down the king's face will be increasingly more enjoyed

I've watched the other devlogs and thought, "Wow, yeah this looks fun and cool." But this one has continued to blow my mind repeatedly. Every time I think, "Dang, I love that." You somehow through another thing that gets that reaction out of me! I am so excited to buy this when it comes out

Hey Shawcat! Hope to see the release is steam in the near future

If you want an example of a good vacuum slime rancher (1 and 2) has I think a good looking effect, and I think it would fit this style well. Also I think you should be able to suck a night pandle into the vacuum, have him get clogged at the front of it, and then be able to launch him as a projectile at other night pandas

Love this right now BTW maybe you could add difficulty levels if that's not to hard have a nice day!

Love your channel. I do think the enemy should have a reaction to you hitting them

Absolutely fell in love with the development of this game

this game is incredible. i cant FUCKING wait to see more.

Hey just thought maybe you could make it so in addition to the medkit you can eat singular bamboo that don't heal as much but are consumed faster. Also with the vacuums particles it might look better if you have the particles fade in over time and move side to side more. Anyways I love how the games going and can't wait to see how it grows!

Man This game is gonna be so good ❤ I can feel it and I hope you enjoy making it too BTW Tyler is scaryy

I just have to say the humor through out this is top tier!

Wow, this game grows really fast

This is amazing!!! Heres an idea: You could make it so there are levels and that the mysterious man on the boat can bring you to different levels and keep going that motivation of yours!!!

I had a idea for your game, to make it so it doesn't go on infinitely which will eventually make it boring to people who have played it for so long I had the idea to make it so that it would only run for 100 days, and for every 10 days that passed there would be a boss fight. Also has a little extra thing you can actually not do this if you want, but you can make it so that some of the cursed pandas could have armor or some could have weapons like some could have pickaxes to break the walls easier or some could have wings to fly which will actually make people want to equip the roof segments. I hope you like my idea and I hope everyone loves your game. Have a lovely day.

your one person doing all theses things that normally require a team that understands your vision , your doing your self . Very impressive.

Awesome devlog!

You should add some bosses or buffed pandas as well maybe making new islands as levels so the game doesnt get that much repetitive

The NPCs are looking fantastic! The game looks so cute!

Man... You made me remember I should finish my game instead of playing others.

sound sound great

Wow! This musy be the coolest and most enjoyable devlog i've ever seen! So, do you consider adding a defensive option for the player? I think it would be cool

suggestion try to add more enemies like maybe a bigger evil panda or maybe have some spawn with armor

An idea is that there is a weather cycle like disasters acid-rain and volcanic eruptions. And maybe you can get a blueprint for a weather-o-meter or a weather reader from the merchant. Also if you do take damage you can get apples from the trees, and you can also grow crops from farms you make and you can get the blueprint from the merchant and you can make a shovel to dig mounds of dirt and make a farm with a stone shovel and watering can.

Probably the best indie game ive seen on yt

SUCH A COOL GAME. i played the demo and i love it. theres only one thing i would change. You shpuld let the player knwo how much health a monster has left by something like a healtba or something like that :D

6:28 that shit is so funny. Keep up the work man

For the grappling hook, I heard the sounds of plastic or flexible rulers sound nice when you pull then let go.

Shawcat's long lost brother was clearly visited by the river man

A cool idea is boss waves. Imagine this. You just barely beat night 10. You start to get ready to start building your dream castle but then, with out warning, a gigantic evil panda spawns in and starts a fight. This would be so much fun and you can do so much with this. Maybe the hammer stuns him or you can grapple onto his back and wale on him. Another idea is setting traps. Such as pit traps, spear traps, fling traps,etc. which would go great with the new bosses.

This is beautiful

you should put theme tune music thats kind of relaxing in the game and then in the night you should put intense music!

10/10 editing 🤝🏽

Hey, bro, you should make a multiplayer mode like I think it would just be really cool to play with my friends and stuff. Like build castles together, build separate castles and protect the panda, maybe there should be, like, several pandas. And by the way, another feature you should add is being able to address your panda. Like, make clothing for your panda and stuff. And put it on them like a Cape or something. Stuff like that, but those are my 2 ideas. Hope you like and have a good day, bye. By the way, love your channel. Bye😀😄😁👍

Grass idea that I can't attest to as I haven't tried it, but if you are spawning grass via the landscape material I bet there's a way to pass in the runtime virtual texture as an additional mask on top of the landscape grass mask.

The Item Pickup sound is like.....knuckle cracking level of satisfaction

Fishing would be cool and relaxing. Also bombs that u could throw And a glider like in zelda. Also a big map would be very cool Also will this gane get food or energy sytem? Bc having a campfire and grilling a big ass fish that u just caught would be cool. Also if the panda wakes up it would be cool if u have to feed him to set him back to sleep. Or something like that. Map ideas: caves with mine shafts and bucket lifts Lakes for fishing and boat driving Villages with merchants (so u would need to travel the world) Rivers (would work as roads for ur boat) Hills would be dangerous and would have soul panda outposts that u could raid for resources and souls. Alos if u would go on a journey always take ur pnda with u and carry a sleeping bag for him 😊🐼 Maybe u like some ideas.

I would love to see some kind of multiplayer aspect to the Game. Maybe there could even be a mode where one player is part of the horde and the other player protects the castle.

Woohoo! YIPEE!!! Another devlog

Idea: Use fan art for paintings/pictures for decorations

BRO for your game, make it so that, with enough resources, you can create your own king-bed-chair-pedastal (the thing that the king sleeps in) so that it would be a show off item and make it a bit easier to do stuff Just a quality of life thing really AND ADD A CURSED PANDA BOSS Seriously this game looks great, cant wait to see more stuff from you! :)

Make the dusk period (if you have one) before the wave comes longer and make the river man only appear during dusk in order to further his creepy atmosphere.

you can hire/collect other pandas to help you gather resources or fight

6:37 This might actually have been the best joke I’ve seen in weeks. The delivery kills me.

Maybe there could be an easter egg with the river man, because since i believe that its supposed to be three otters in a coat right. So i think you should have it to where if you dont talk to him for a while, when you do afterwards you can interupt the otters talking to each ither and have them shocked. Sorry about the essay but i think it might be a funny touch. Might also be fun to do with the other merchants.

Played through the demo. The enemies seem like they have no obstacle avoidance, they will just run into random walls that they could just go around. Because they follow the closest target you can just lead them away and sit out of range shooting at them. The enemies should target doorways and weak spots on your wall and when they can't reach the player, they should target the king. The cannons should damage the base and kill the king if hit. It would add a lot of fun if you could do 2 player split screen. It would be nice if you could hold the left mouse button for the swords attack so you didn't have to spam it. The enemies should also steal your supplies out of your chest if they can get to it. I would add a weak spot to enemies that when hit with an arrow does major damage, but I would make the arrows have more drop making the bow harder to use but rewarding if you're skilled enough. I would like if you could move the king's throne, but I understand why it's not an option. I don't like that you can't build out of bounds, but I understand the many problems that it would cause if you could. I like the mining system and I like that you can man the cannons rather than have them automated. There is a glitch when you talk to the wizard before he docks it pulls your body towards him and into the water, when you are done talking to him you are falling to your death, and on respawn you are still falling to your death. I understand this is an indie game made by 2 people with no budget, I'm just giving my thoughts. Overall awesome, fun and impressive game! Keep it up!

Idea:Make a multiplayer button and a find game button also a customize player button where you can select diffrent skins and colors for your player

Hi, Im testing the demo and I realized that there is no sensitivity, I thing u should add it to the game! Keep doing this great job and enjoy it.

a thing you can do is you can give a lot of souls to like an orb and then you can un corrupt a night panda or something to man the canons or get resources

The game look 10x better than your other devlogs but one thing you should add: I know you might be done with weapons but I think you should add a dagger.

You should do long spirels for vacuum

I think you should change the sound used for the thing that spawns enemies,i personally would change it to something like the river man's voice but depper

you should make a system where there are like a bunch of knight pandas that surround you when you throw the king panda of the hill and then they charge at you after awhile

With the particles, it may be prudent to set their simulation space to world space, just so they don't look like they're glued to the tool you're holding.

8:16 is sooooo funny

I love your memey, adhd fueled personality
