Adding DESTRUCTION to my ROBOT BOXING GAME | Circuit Clash Devlog #2 

seems like roblox isn't a fan of selling early access on patreon, my bad! Circuit Clash will be available for early access for 100 Robux once it's ready! Join the Discord!: discord.gg/pw43XyP6eF

As someone whose childhood was Pacific Rim, Real Steel, and Transformers, this is the game I was always waiting for.

2:30 could you code it to where if a certain part is hit multiple times it becomes disabled or slows down or completely falls off. 10:50 Please Add a Fatality where the robots power core is taken out. And can you make it so the user's avatar can be seen once the robot is injured in a certain area.

This is gonna be fire if imagine all those sparks and flashes from metal punching other metal,like its robots,but still feels they fight in full power

This is the kind of dev we need , people who COMMUNICATE with us . I hope u stay the same if the game blows up.

my suggestions: add blocking/parrying (you cant block too much or else you arm will get damaged) make it so your abilities have certain health so you cant just spam your abilities make it so if your abilities get damaged its less effective also make it so if 1 of your abilities get broken/damaged it will be repaired next round with an animation (whenever someone gets knocked out) add stamina so you cant just spam your punch make it so if you get hit by a really heavy punch/get knock downed theres a flash animation and ears ringing sound (with slow mo) add endlag to the punches so you cant just spam it and not get hit add voxel like destruction physics (this would make the game SOO GOOD and satisfying) really looking into this game's release goodluck!

Tbh, people like you are the reason I want to try making games. I know I won't be good at it at first but seeing how passionately people like you work on their dream games, let's just say it puts a very big smile on my face 😁

10:30 does everyone agree that they could watch this for hours? 👌 nice job reggie, your doing amazing as a developer and I am SO playing your game when it’s done ✔️

4:54 you can press Ctrl + R with moon animator to mirror/reflect animations 4:30 you can also press M while selecting keyframes to make impact animations smoother and it sometimes makes it look more soft, which could help with the other robot type (press Shift + M to specify the range)

THIS IS A MOMENT IN HISTORY. TAKE A PICTURE!!

I have some suggestions, idk if they would be possible but ideas for the future. I have no idea if these are even possible but it would be very cool in adding these types of things into the game to give it that extra hmpfh to it. 1. Have a stamina or "Heat status" that causes the robot to lock up for a second or two if attacks are spammed. 2. A block and maybe a footwork dodge from left to right, Maybe adding more static things like bouncing on toes with footwork. 3. Adding a core temperature if footwork is made so they dont spam Dodges, or blocking (blocking should take stamina if its held to long. 4. Some sort of health system. 5. Taunts or emotes like signaling to come closer or arms going up in celebration of match. 6. A intro before fight begins like a UFC match (similar to Real steels Zeus fight. With the player walking out with their bot.) 7. A type of locker or Workshop type of thing where you can customize your bot and make it truly a metal representation of you. (This should be added much later just incase of any bugs or things that need to be ironed out) 8. Different view modes, Like a first person would be cool with some CCTV footage type of filter over it to give it like a looking through the bots eyes Feel. 9. Matchmaking with a menu of either Casual or Ranked. These are all ideas and i know some may be super hard to implement but believe in you!!!

Are you gonna add more boxing moves like hooks and uppercuts? Bc seeing a robot lose its head by an uppercut would be very cool/funny

lemme just say that Reggie puts so much hard work into his game, I cant wait to tryout this game!

Being able to change the size of the buttons and move the button is a must have

I feel it would be sick to make the arms of the robots spring loaded so they appear to start swinging slowly then fire forward with a spark for example Cherno alpha from pacific rim punching the kaiju otachi. The build up and power of the punch from a stand still to full force was epic

its crazy how every small detail can impact a game, the changing of speed in the punches made it soo much smoother

I loved the Dani reference with the particle system xD

- You should make a cutscene at the start of the match showing both players with controllers or smth in their hand on each side of the ring in my opinion - you can also make it where you can charge your punches by holding the button and releasing at a certain point and it will drain your stamina more if u have stamina atleast - And for blocking you can make it where if they block for a certain amount of time they get block fatigue, so the next few punches they throw will be weak and the other players punches can break their block

love seeing the dev blogs, just barely tuned in and its awesome, i love robots and boxing so im hyped to see this. Thank you for sharing this dream with us.

This is truly shaping up to be something real special, looking forward to what you'll add next!

PLEASE take advantage of the kind of box style characters and make individual boxes fall off of the robots as the robot gets damaged (kind of like tear down or jjs)

This is becoming a very cool game! Also, if you ever add a NPC crowd in the background for the map, make them actually lively and able to react to what's going on in the ring and not just them standing and staring at the stage. And adding sound effects can significantly enhance any game. Including sounds like cheering, booing, and crowd chants can make games like this very engaging.

this looks like it's an awesome game so far! It would be awesome to play this game once it's out! also, I think you could make a red flashing effect for the glow on the enemies when they're hit. I think it'd be a nice addition! Awesome work, I can't wait for the next Devlog!

You earned a sub I'm really interested in this new robot UFC/Boxing game😊

Im here to suggest limb health. This would allow for lasting damage to happen throughout the fingt, such as losing an arm qnd as an effect, losing some of your DPS. This would make it more rewarding on a near miss, give incentive to not exclusivly bo for center of mass, and finally, ripping robots appart is really, REALLY fun.

Loving the devlogssss keep it upppp!

Ayyy time to grab the popcorn :D (cant wait to play it when it comes out :7)

I can confirm that (despite how hopeless it might seem, with all the work, for 80% not to be able to utilize your hard work | 7:29) there is still the 20% of us roblox PC players! We appreciate PC and the mechanics that go into these things! Keep working hard, dude!

You cannot go wrong with good ol sparks and destruction effects. This looks really cool. Looking forward to your work in the future.

LETS GO THIS GAME IS FIRE. Im tryna learn how to dev now because of you fr.

Finally a Person who recognizes the Problematic situation with mobile.

The game looks just great! You should keep working on it. This game is gonna be the BEST!

I have a idea in this game where different parts of robots can get damaged, like the arms, torso and the legs, and each damaged parts debuffs your stats Damaged Legs: Decreased speed Damaged Arms: Decreased damage and decreased attack speed Damaged Torso: Decreased durability, or you can take more damage There will also be a picture of your robot near your healthbar to see which parts are damaged, there will also be colors on the condition of the parts. Green: Fine parts Yellow: Damaged Parts Orange: Damged and gives slight debuffs (like 10% less damage) Red: Heavily damaged and gives harsh debuffs (like 25% less damage) And one last thing about this feature, is that when you hit or get hit it will show a highlight on which part you hit landed or what hit landed on you.

GodDAMN this looks incredible, i hope it really gets popular once it releases

That looks insane man ! Fr the quality of the game is impressive, keep up the good work I can't wait to see the updates !

You should add something like if you beat the other player you get like some metal scraps. You can collect it to get like costumes or cosmetics. I am so excited to play your game once it comes out.

REGGIE!! what if you made it so different robots had different classes based on like what type of robot they were?? like if you were a brute looking robot youd have a more slow yet heavy-hitter type of playstyle!

Robot boxing is the best idea ever

goodluck man, hope your game and your channel blow up! would love seeing this being a massive hype!

Now this is what i've been waiting for finally, someone knows how cool this idea was.

Destruction is gonna be AMAZING!!!

you have no idea how long ive waited for a game like this

This dude better live for this game. It definitely has insane potential. Can't wait for the next devlog, I'm hooked!

As a mech fan who watched Real steel, Pacific Rim, Titanfall and Mecha break(in the future) I will support you and this game the best I can

Dude i saw this channel on my recommended and i watched the videos and i was like dude this guy is awesome he managed to mix the 2 best types of games robots and boxing. I know thay game development is pretty dificult and this looks great and i cant wait to play this

You should make a mode in the game where every robot is in a tournament where the player picks to play as a robot, also the tournament should switch up what robot goes against what to make it more replayable

I think a reason for the punch’s not feeling real is that when you do a jab, even if your entire arm is inside the other guys shoulder, the full jab animation plays. Since you’re using a ray cast to detect the hits you could make it that if the punch connects before the full animation, it doesn’t continue to do the animation and will go back to default. Another thing that could add to that, is adding a system where if your punch connects too early then it does less damage, but rewards you with more damage if you hit your opponent at the apex of your punch. I think both of these would be very hard to implement in a reasonable amount of time, but I just wanted to spit out some ideas I had in my head.

Dude this is so sick !!!! When you finally finish the game it’s gonna blow up , you already have 20k subscribers !!!! I can’t wait for this

Glad to say I was here to watch this game come to life

As a Robot Lover and diehard Transformers fan, this game is awesome.

This guys videos are mega high quality👏🏻 keep up the good work🙌🏻🙌🏻

bro i was a kid watching reel steel 5 times a day i need this game in my life i remember my childhood so clearly now. When is the next dev log i love these videos btw!

3:10 - you can just use animation priority for this system (like use only head & torso for impact animation and set priority to action), or create animations based on cframes

As a young Roblox developer this is awesome. You’re very good at modeling, something I am horrible at. Don’t lose your motivation ❤

I absolutely love this series so far, but I think making the texture of the bot change (say the head gets a slight destroyed texture instead of plastic) every time metal chips spark out and make the area of impact only be affected, I think it would add a bit of realism and make the mechs seem more worn out as the match progresses

yippeee a usuallyreggie video keeps the uhhh the therapist unpaid 😎👍 seriously though, im excited for the development of this game

Been watching since about 500 subs.. nice to see you grow and get the attention your videos deserve with the release of these recent dev logs!

Amazing progress already, I dont want to influence what you want of the game but a small tip for punching animations is having the return be faster than the swing. This mostly applys to jabs

This is absolutely incredible! It's like im watching my own dream come true through someone else! I just know this game is going to be great! Also, for some feedback, sound effects would be cool to add imact to the puches, speaking of impact, you could add a little camera shake (if its too complicated dont add). But other than that, it's looking good man, keep going!

I LOVE THAT HE MENTIONED DANI AND HIS JOKE MAN I LOVE THIS DUDE

Pretty sure that there could be a way to replace ATLEAST half of these 48 animations with proceduraly generated ones. It is a feature in roblox, many people were able to make procedurally generated strafing animations(for R6, roblox already has this system officially available for R15, the one you are using as you said in the last video), but that's where my knowledge ends. Good luck.

Suggestion: you could make some of the glowing parts flicker when taking damage or outright break when hit enough, I think it’d really show the impact on the robot’s internal components!

This is already looking unique as hell. This looks awesome

I don’t know if you plan to add pieces of the robot falling off in the game, but it would be great ! And for the animations, there must be a way to move the body parts with code (I’m a dev, not Roblox tho) I don’t if the body is rigid, or if it’s different parts that you can move separately with code, but definitely try animating with code. Good luck !

It's great to see how a game is being created since the start, I really have high hopes for this game!

I had so much nostalgia, I remembered the real steel boxing game on mob

This is awesome!

I recommend making it so the more damage you take the more broken the bot becomes to make the little chips flying off make more sense

The robots move like they’re organic. Also, camera shake would make this sick

Hey! Just a few suggestions here for the game. Right now it's not very visible when it falls off, add a trail! You should make one section of the debris neon and have that corresponding robots color, so you can really tell who's getting destroyed. Add a tween on the debris effect so it doesn't just disappear off the floor (Make sure all of this is client-sided if it isn't already) It would be cool to see some smoke or greater spark particles as the robot gets lower in health. Great work

I'm definitely gonna play this!

You dont know how much my toes have been tingling for this video🙌

when your into boxing games and your favorite theme is sci-fi

U did the thing I was scared doing making a robot boxing game on Roblox u are the legend

One maybe insane idea is the more you hit the more progress you get for a harder attack. Then when you activate it maybe a rocket and GFX would make it look insanely cool. And if the other player blocks you fly back or something like that.

I am honestly really excited about this "real steal" sort of game.

BRO I CANT WAIT NO LONGER I WANT THAT GAME. thanks for making a game that is actually good❤

I can't wait for this game, btw u should add some special characters for beta, or some cool extra attacks and armor.

i was a huge fan of transformers when i was younger;you might be making my dreams come true lol

Congrats on 20k

To make the moment of *impact* more *staggering* you could add some *sounds* if it isn't obvious enough🔊 (Aside from that,it also made it more satisfying when you land a heavy punch)

As a kid that makes robot boxing simulations (with magnets) and that always loved pacific rim and transformers, this will actually be the BEST game ever!!! Im so hyped for the next video, keep it up!

okay so, you should be able to choose a "Dominant arm", which deals more damage, all that good stuff. that's also the arm with the cutscene move!! I feel like it'd be cool

Im so glad I discovered this soon enough to watch it grow :,)

Wow this is just getting better and better! Amazing job, keep it up!

The physics based impacts can be a fun modifier on a casual match

This is amazing! Even thought I'm gonna suck at both computer and mobile, I can't wait to see the finished product!

for the destruction effects u could use subtractasync to negate a shape out of the robot mesh to make it look like its actually destroying the robot

You should add a winning animation, where the robot who ends at the end of the fight is in b a simple/small cut scene where confetti comes down, a spotlight gets shown on them, and they raise their gloves up.

This is actually really interesting and cool to watch

Shhh is this going to happen, it's been my dream of playing a robot boxing, when I was a kid I always watch real steel, I hope this game will be fire, keep up the good work👍

gl with development, been looking for a real steel-esque game for a while!

I really like your OC's design.

I love this it has so many potential, dont forget to make dodging and dashing

Yoo Reggie, I'm an OG to your channel, and I think you should add a block mechanic, I think it would make the game feel much more polished. (Also im really looking forward to playing when this comes out keep up the good work man👍)

Maybe you can create a system where players can control the speed of their robot punches, and during break time, you can repair your bot with backup parts you bought before the fight. Also, maybe you could create perks and specials for robots to use during a fight like that of world robot boxing (a real steel mobile game) and their could be dances and phrases and intros and outros (if you win) players can buy for their bot, also maybe people could sell and trade their bots. Maybe you can create lore behind the game like maybe "In the year 2035 research and technology has been on the rise and the result of this was robloxianoid machines made for multiple purposes like law enforcement, healthcare, sports, etc" and the story focus on the BFL which stands for the Bot Fighting League. Maybe different game modes like campaign which the player has to finish before getting access to the entire game (they could play online still) they would have to fight 50 bots and the story could be how the player must go through 10 stages by beating 10 bots per stage starting from the underground to the BFL as champion, also please make it wear i can move around as a player and not as a bot.

Just as I was worrying about this devlog ending at episode #1!

I hope the background is like city or a large area to show how big the robots are.

It’s be cool if your robot could lose limbs if they too much damage ( like if your opponent is just wailing on your arm it’ll eventually break off) and then you can’t block with it and you have less options in combat. It’d probably come back in between rounds or something, and maybe it just reaches critical damage and goes limp or something. Also, if you ever add those cutscenes you mentioned you should totally have them do super crazy finishers (like if they kill/win the match) that are just like stadium destroying massive lasers or something.

This looks like fun, definitely looking forward to this when it comes out.
