brackeys godot tutorial but i added some things too. 

i am actually working on my own original game, thanks for the idea! the vid should be released soon

@@ProgrammerPenguin wow thats very cool

i added another thing too! you can see my latest vid!

so true

​@@ProgrammerPenguin HOW DID YOU DO THE CHECKPOINTS? HELP IM MAKING A GAME AND ALL OF THE OTHER TUTORIALS ARE USELESS

@@tankominos56 i made an autoload named PlayerStats with a script and pasted this in "var checkpoint_position = Vector2(0, -40)" then, in my player script, in the on_ready function, I set the global_position to PlayerStats.checkpoint_position, then in my checkpoint script I typed " PlayerStats.checkpoint_position = body.global_position" where body is the parameter to _on_body_ready function, I should also mention in my killzone I'm calling get_tree().reload_current_scene() hope this helps.

thanks a lot! do you have any suggestions?

@@ProgrammerPenguin You could look into particle effects, especially when you take out or hit a slime!

@@Garanas192 that's such a good idea! thing is idk how to implement particle effects, but i'll search on how to, would you be so kind on explaining more?

​@@ProgrammerPenguin There are built-in nodes for particle emitters in Godot. You can try experimenting with those. You can find various textures (also those that are animated) online, see also the page that Brackley links. On Itch IO there are a vast amount of assets that you can use to experiment with. I'd personally always work in small steps: - (1) Create a particle emitter when you take out a slime. Do not focus on how the effect looks at this stage, just make some particle effect spawn. This is the 'functional' bit. I'm not that experienced with Godot, but since everything that is 'a thing' is a separate scene you probably want this emitter to be a separate scene too. You can then use a small bit of script to dynamically create the scene, which would create the emitter. You can probably use a timer to clean up the emitter again, similar to how Brackley uses a timer to make the game move in slow motion for a second or so before it restarts. - (2) Tweak the particle emitter. This is where you look into the looks and feels. Use a texture, or maybe create two particle emitters at the same time - one with larger particles and one with smaller particles that have a different color for example. In practice effects often consist of multiple particle emitters where each effect has a specific role in the effect as a whole. A simple example: if you would create an explosion then you would probably have a separate emitter for smoke, fire, sparkles, a shockwave and perhaps even the initial flash. Together they create the explosion.

@@ProgrammerPenguin Godot has a built-in emitter system for 2 dimensions. You can start with that! It's likely a separate scene, and you can then instantiate (create) a new scene at the position of the slime when you jump on top of it.

thanks a lot, do you have any suggestions?

thanks a lot salad fingers! see my latest vid, i've added a suggestion.

@@ProgrammerPenguin ^^ Oh, ok, thanks !

feels like i know you....😉

@@ProgrammerPenguin 🤔 Hmm.. 😂

i made a hitbox for the player collision in the pink slime and if player goes inside it, it subracts the y and x velocity by a certain amount, i can change the "fling_distance" variables too because i've used @export on it.

i made an area 2d with collision shape 2d node inside it just above the slime's head, when the player enters it, it decrements the lives counter and shoots the player above, when the lives run out, I call the "queue_free()" function which essentially deletes the root node of the slime object making it disappear. hope that helps.

@@ProgrammerPenguin Thanks! The problem I was having was that my player died first when he entered the area 2d from above. Maybe I should add him shooting up to take care of that?

@@atbeheij sure, just to body.velocity.y and subract or add some value.

@@ProgrammerPenguin Thanks a ton!!

i made a hit box collision shape and if player enters it, subtract some amount of velocity y and velocity x

that's not my fault, i imported it from brackets tutorial. i apologise for that.

what do you mean "strange movements"?

@@ProgrammerPenguin when u get touched by the boss slime ig

@@tam4655 its a knockback effect. its buggy.

@@ProgrammerPenguin OHHHHHHHHHHHHH lmao. it looked weird as a curve tbh, i think u did that shit with a tween lol. imo i feel like the players velocity should be set to some diagonal angle or smth, that eould prolly do it

very cool!

thank you very much!

thanks a lot!

I will add music to my upcoming vid, its my most worked on vid yet.
