Adding CRAZY Weapons To My Roguelike Game | GODOT DEVLOG 

To fix the accuracy issue you would need to generate two random numbers for each coordinate. You were picking values along the (1,1) vector essentially. Still doing it this way would lead to less accuracy on the diagonals, since you're picking points on a square. So you're second solution is better anyway, although you don't need to normalize the vector anymore, since the angle is independent of length. You could rotate the vector using a rotation matrix, that would only save you the angle calculation, but you would need the normalize. You can do this woth a Transform2D with a random angle (like randomAcc) and multiply it by the initialDirection.

your game is sooo polished already it's insane

cant wait for all ur weapons to become iconic bestie

I just want to mention how nice the lighting is and the quality of video production is amazing!

dude this guy just makes bangers. constant visually interesting art disguised as an indie game. crazy how much effort you put into the game and the videos.

Interested to see how deadly gamont would be against a high HP single target, eg. in a boss fight. Great ideas, immediately gets you thinking how to best use them in different scenarios and what mods would work in each weapon. On that note, I think adding multiple levels of complexity to the weapon modding system could be the catch of your game, similar to how Noita's wand system works

My favourite is definitely marrow I thinks it a really nice design for a gun.

Converting to an angle and then adjusting its accuracy is the right way to do it. If you add a random vector offset to where you’re aiming, then you’ll be more accurate when aiming further away

The game looks pretty good, the weapons seem fun :) I'd personally change the "reloading" a little bit, either just make it a circle that fills or if you want to keep the word, maybe make it grey-ish and then make it white letter by letter starting from R and finishing on G, basically I'd add anything that lets you know when you will finish reloading

Randomly got this video recommended. Now I am a subscriber^^ Really well made video, and the game looks fun so far. I´ll definitely keep an eye on this channel^^ I love the idea of the Tea leaves. I am always a big fan of damage over time, and this is a very fun version for it. Also, big fan of the cactus enemy. Shocker, I know :P Two thoughts that crossed my mind on this video, as someone who has only seen this video so far: - It irks me that the revolver does 2 damage, but the damage is shown as 3 dots. I totally understand why it is, and that the dots symbolize more of a percentage/comparative way of showing damage. But my mind went immediately "But why 2 damage then?" (I am pretty sure it is just because you mentioned the revolver as baseline, and specifically pointed the damage out. I am sure if I encountered the weapon in game I wouldn´t mind, or even notice^^) - It might just be me, but the spirits shot remind me of sperm. Love the idea, love the weapon design, and the spirit also looks great. But it having only one "tail" makes it look a bit like sperm... Hope this comes across as constructive, as it was meant that way. My eyes are peeled for more of this, and I´ll go through your other videos soon :D

This game looks so nice with those visuals. Even down to spawn effect it's so much better than anything I do

Applying color to the marrow bullet particle was a wise move >.>

I have zero experience in programming, art or making games but i swear watching you is igniting a fire in me to learn.

Men everything i see one of your vlog, I get a buff on inspiration and dev speed My favorite gun today was the marrow, love the design

Discord server when?

The "I'm not gonna compare myself to the fucking needler" just got you a new sub lmaoo keep it up dude

This is looking so gorgeous. Love the "broken" weapons you're reaching for.

Wow your game looks very good.

I love the idea of adding guns that are bad but still fun to play, maybe even more fun than regular guns. It'd be like a challenge with a high reward in the form of dopamine if you used them.

Your game looks so beautiful and not only that, I envy the fact that you speak so well and express clearly each and every point in your devlog.! Your game is bound to find success.! All the best bro! 😎

You could add a text about ubique effects at the bottom of the screen for weapons that have it.

the minigun could power up slowly and then start firing max speed and go through all the ammo, then you have to reload. It may feel better and still be unique.

Vector2 has a .direction_to(point) method and you can rotate vectors with .rotated(angle). It could look like: var initialDirection = turningAxis.global_position.direction_to(get_global_mouse_position()) var directionRotated = initialDirection.rotated(randomAcc) bullet_instance.velocity = directionRotated You also don't need to call randomize() every time. You only need to call that on ready if you don't want it to be the same sequence of random values if you restart the scene. It would also probably make more sense to call that on a different node.

I love the whackiness of the guns, they're very creative!

I really like the topic around Racket, an item made to be bad. In Isaac (only roguelike I have significant time into) a similar item in nature is Curse of the Tower. Getting hit and spawning 6 bombs is bad but some people like it and some don't. There are a lot of synergies and items that work well with Curse of the Tower and can make it a run winner (like with Pyromaniac, healing from the bombs)

Wow i really can't wait for this game to be released and play it. Your passion is massive and i can't wait for more devolgs from you.

These videos are WAY to high quality for the subscriber amount. Peak Content

You can simplify the accuracy stuff by just rotating the direction by the random amount. So, something like this: intialDirection = initialDirection.rotated(rand_range(-accuracy, accuracy) This is basically the same stuff, just handled by Godot internally

im new to game dev, and godot. but your videos are great motivation and inspiration, also really like your commentary

This game looks awesome man!

This is really cool man

nice and unique guns! Game looks awesome too! well done mate!

i love your channel great content, fun to listen to, great art !!! keep going bud

Amazing! It could be really cool if you added an Easter egg for the play that the Godot engine is named after.

double barrel shotguns are cool

Very nice! The game Nova Drift has lots of weapons that you mod in a similar way, so if you’re looking for inspiration, that might be a good place to look.

Looks fun

Marrow’s bullets look a bit… spermy. Beautiful game!

Do you have a video/tutorial on how you achieved the code and architecture for the different weapon behaviour in Godot?

Your pixel art is awesome :D, your game is going great too. I'm to be a pixel artist but i started from1 year ago i didnt saw any progress :/ i hope be in your level one day

What would you say would be the best way to learn game dev with no experience 😀 youre games are. absolutly amazing

Clearly, Marrow doesn't fire blanks, ehehe

FIRST!

You can gave "infinite" shot speed, but you need to use your own timer. Just have a variable "shoot_timer" and decrease it by delta every frame and then if it hits 0 you can shoot and reset it!

I would say that every gun should be usefull against a certain enemy, for examply racket could be usefull against monsters slow with big hp bars, because the tick rate is doing good damage. I think it is not an good idea to have an weapon being useless, so no one picks it. Then why even design the weapon? As a starter weapon to make it harder ok, but as a main weapon someone has to stick to definitely no.

idk about that of making the racket gun purposefully bad, at that point you could just make it so there's a chance no new weapon spawns, and it would serve basically the same purpose. In the binding of Isaac, there's an item called Cursed Eye that is pretty bad, but if you have the right items like the Black Candle or Holy Mantle you can counteract its downsides, and it becomes pretty good. Not every weapon needs to be good, but I think every weapon should under the right circumstances have its uses, more like a sidegrade rather than just an upgrade.

Why did RU-vid only introduce me to you now?!!

i think you should change racket gun into mine gun, its not gonna have bullet speed, when you shoot the bullet at that time racket will spawn in the ground, so it would have a purpose, it could save you from the melee attack enemies.

Can you add a gun like the needler from Halo?

Pixel art is insane! How did you get started and what programs did you use?

Wow! I'm currently working on a game in Scratch, kinda boring, I know... But, I have NOOO idea what the guns should look like, and I don't just want to take guns from other games. So, how did you get your guns to look so good? (your game looks AWESOME btw!)

How do you make everything look so...shiny.. it is so nice

So should tea leaves pierce? Since it matters more about where it goes?

3:56 hehehehe sperm

I just had an idea.. Why not make the upgrades to your weapons like the wands and spells from Noita. It would be a huge project but it would definitely make it extremely fun because there would be soo many options

How did you get your game to have that kind of darkened look with lights like that? Is it a shader or a canvasmodulate?, I’d love to know how you did that. I’m working on a rougelike with my friend right now and we really have wanted to get a darker look like that but don’t know how.

Not sure if this works, but could you just add random amounts to each component and then normalize it?

Call me crazy or terminally online but the spirit projectile looks more like... male gametes, to put it in a way. Perhaps making the trail less thin and wavy like that and perhaps more like steam or something else could help.

I watch your channel all the time, yet I'm not subbed... Well better late then never (+1 Sub)

what is your game called ??? it is amazing

im sorry my man but i cant help but see a spermatozoid on marrow

dear mz_eth, you are super wrong, but also probably handsome :)

Do you like got any tutorials I can watch cuz that game is insane

What’s the game called

Marrow is "sperm gun" sorry for saying it

HOW CAN I GET THIS HOW MUCH!!!!!!!!

hi how do you make a gun

why is the skull-sperm shooting gun called marrow?

8 bullets in a revolver? Schizo.

Hi, I was wondering if you were in need of testers (maybe you have friends that already do this so you might not even need my "service" but still I'll bring this up), obv for free it would be a honor to play this game and give you my personal thoughts, feedback and bugs reports, also if you are thinking of translating the game in more languages I can speak Italian and I would be pleased to help you with that too, so if you do just tell me and I'll give u my discord to share further details :)

I love this! Do you think you can add a mlee weapon in the game, or would it not fit with current designs of enemies?
