This is by far my favorite tutorial structure on RU-vid. The reasoning you give behind why you need to / should do something is very helpful and provides very deep insight. Your video editing and graphic pointers are also nice. Excellent work 💪
Nice! You should also have a look at visual shaders. Those are pretty awesome as well. You should be able to see the script it creates and learn from that as well
I basically just added blank sprite covering the full screen with a glitch effect as it's material, and toggled it's visibility based on if the time slow key is down
This video is wonderful! Despite some slight changes in Godot 4, the tutorial is still legit and is eye-opening to me to the world of shaders! Kudos to you, mister.
This brought back memories of playing Megaman Zero. It's funny how I was just looking at their sprites yesterday too. I feel like buying the 4th now since I have 1, 2, and 3. I like your art style. The characters are nice and the world has a cool Metroid vibe, while the alien enemies are unique. May your game do well.
wow so you can just animate the value just like blender vertex? damn thats really cool. i really need to use this. this is simple when you want to animate it
Wonderful video! By any chance, is there any resource you could share on the motion trail effect at 0:33? All of the resources seem to use CPU processing, but I was really hopeful to implement something like that in GLSL, any help would be super appreciated.
And the answer to my question is: SCREEN_TEXTURE is the texture "behind" your current Sprite while TEXTURE is the texture of your Sprite itself. Same with UV and SCREEN_UV If someone is not sure which one to use - swap one for another and see what you like more (or what works correctly for your needs).
Subbed, I really like your content. Out of curiosity, did you draw all those assets yourself? I've come to understand that I can make any type of game but making assets, sounds, and all the other stuff kill me 😭
For learning godot and not wanting to have to do EVERYTHING yourself... opengameart.org and/or kenney.nl for free stuff... Also keep your eyes peeled on Humble Bundle. They sell assets frequently.
hey bro! I do art myself. I do make some music too but they take me 10x as long to make than the game itself lol so I would just either download free music from open game art or have my friend do it. now for the art, it needs to be very consistent so I recommend buying asset packs on itch. there are also some free ones.
@@MasterAlbert I feel the same, programming the game is a lot easier than making the assets. I don't want to spend money on making a game yet, so I've decided to just work on some assets everyday. Since covid I've got all the time in the world, might as well pick up a new skill. :)
Just figured it out. Sample code in the "flash" function: var new_color : Color = Color.CYAN $AnimatedSprite2D.material.set_shader_parameter("flash_color", new_color) Thanks for this tutorial! 🙂
"The best way to create games is to steal from others." said it like a true game developer but seriously awesome tutorial, I'm now a changed man who understands shaders
I have a weird issue with the shader. When i place it on a sprite it works flawless like in the tutorial. But when i adapt the scripts and settings to another sprite (local to scene is checked!) and change the flash color - it always flashes white but not in the chosen color. I cant figure out whats wrong here ..
If I have made a total of 47 games to date with Godot without using shaders, does that mean I should be 47 times ashamed of myself? XD great vid seriously!
Great video. Intro was really good, I played it for 3 times before I actually watch the tutorial Can someone please tell me where can I learn how to make death effect in 7:26
and... If a wanna change some property of my shader from the code (from gdscript 4.0) in my code that's not working with "set_shader_param()" Godot says "that function doesn't exist ;-;" ?... How can I do it in Godot4 ? plss help :c I really need it
Not me following this tutorial and wondering why nothing works..... when I put .rgb everywhere instead of .rbg..... I am not chad enough to master shaders 💀
