Marble Marcher - A Beautiful Blend of Evolving Fractals & Super Monkey Ball-esque Ball Rolling! 

This reminds me of Phineas and Ferb.

@Zayd Maxim what the hell are you talking about

damm, one time i put my arm into a hole, now i have the arm but all smashed after that incident

Raoul1808 it would have to be incredibly elegant because the models it produces are MASSIVE the fractal nature of the geometry is what makes it all possible.

I don't remember the specifics but the author, code parade, made a video on this game and from what I recall he was able to make collisions very efficient by using the properties of fractals

@@Kusaragi turns out its as simple as calculating the nearest point from the middle of the sphere and then bouncing off of it

Life 💙💙💙

trashheap72 that was a really fascinating video, ppl should check it out!

Sorry about that :(

Ask Code Parade about it.

just mute the game and play your own...

The music is in the game's assets folder, so you can change it to anything by replacing the *level#.ogg* files.

The game is open source, you're free to modify it

ку работяги He did now!

@@safir2241 he did it after 20minutes:)

Yep

I came from that channel

DI 05 RU-vid recommended me this video shortly after watching Code Parade’s video on it

The fractal has brogled

Probably just some 3d mirrors. And yes, its awesome

It is awesome but I would probably appreciate it more if I didn’t have tripophobia :(

Fractal structures have some special anxiety-invoking property; its somewhat similar to tripophobia-like anxiety, but actually different

Similar or not I wish I didn’t have tripophobia

So unlucky you actually have tripophobia

honestly, with the work of a single person, I'm genuinely impressed by this. I don't see anything to complain about but maybe the repetitive music, but that wasn't even him who made the music.

I think the main issue with people complaining is not the amount of work put in, that doesn’t make it a good game, but the fact that it is a proof of concept, code parade said it himself, it is not meant to be a good game, it is meant to be an interesting game that proves you can have 3 dimensional interaction with fractals

Yeah but the big problem is that it's put in a racing game that doesn't let you contemplate the complexity of fractals

Une Pintade There’s literally a screensaver mode put in there for people who want to do exactly that

Of course its hard work, but that doesn't mean its good, you cant praise this as a game because theres another billion people trying to make a good game, everybody puts effort, if they all are praised then it doesn't mean nothing, the game as it is its not good because its only a system to show the fractals, give praise where it should be

Who doesnt use a delta time system in 2019?

He made his own engine and hasn’t added that yet

@@moai3392 you just need to include chrono and then subtracy end with now. Then use count and you get delta time. I have it in my own engine and it is really easy to implement

@@zerdagdir1988 it's probably really hard to get the physics approximations to work well in

WHY DID YOU MAKE ME IMAGINE THAT

Me too

Maybe there is a reason why ABG Mostly plays PS1 games

@@cubaplayyt the thing is i know it isnt gonna break but i keep thinking it is

You've played too much Glover.

Now I have the same problem

💥8| CodeParade has an excellent video on how the physics for this game works.

it's just the trees for me

Are you trypophobic?

Hmm.

@@dk14929 not really, they're just TOO detailed and close to the screen yknow

@Kyle Cooper i think theyre just like, uncomfortably detailed ngl

after watching Code Parade's trailer, I saw that a stage was named "don't get crushed". The thought of getting crushed by fractals triggers my trypophobia, so I watched this video just to see someone get to & beat that stage, which turned out looking more like some rectangle-ly industrial bulldozer than something organic. That made me feel better (: once I get over that my curiosity about the later stages will set in and I'll watch someone speedrun the whole game

Kaida Tong some of these might trigger your trypophobia though

He actually used Unity

there isn't any texture AFAIK

@kanai barber I think he meant the hamsterball one (I forgot the name)

@@zakkymiftahurrahman1665 the name is hamsterball

Except there’s also large holes

Cuz it is

It's not too hard to run. Although I am saying that with a Ryzen 7, but I'll try to run it in my laptop.

The game engine itself is very simple, but because it's a type of ray tracer the bigger your display is the more power it needs to draw pixels. You can run it on anything if the display is small enough.

Oh, XD

That's because the RU-vidr chose a high resolution that their computer can't handle

@@Cheesecannon25 they're getting a smooth 60fps, what the game is intended to run at

@@DemonetizedBrick there is an fps counter in the bottom right and it continuously goes below 60.

And totally possible to make

Guess I should get modding remind me in 12 hours

ok ima try my best to make a basic mod loader

ok turns out its c++, I thought it was python. I was thinking of another code parade project :(

That's ok you tried. :-)

You have no idea how much processing power this takes

@@Cheesecannon25 according to the person who made the game, these fractals are made by applying multiple reflections on a simple shape. This method should be able to create rough textures with relative ease

in order to render fractals such as these, you have to run complex mathematical operations up to hundreds of times per pixel, per frame. Polygons are way more efficient for games on the whole. Also, since the fractals are essentially just mathematical equations, modifying them to suit your needs in most games is difficult, unless of course the whole gimmick of the game is that it is made of fractals.

@@pixstatic200 well never mind then.

@@pixstatic200 You're exaggerating the complexity of fractals. Here is a 4min video by the guy who made this game explaining how it's rendered: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-9U0XVdvQwAI.html While it's too involved for a tree in the background I'd say Valroinc Lehre had the right idea for using it for terrain. A game could definitely use fractals without it being a gimmick.

Caustics? Like acid? Why though?

@@johnathanegbert9277 cause i love doing acid

@@johnathanegbert9277 burn through the fractal with an acidic marble

oh yes, the worst level for me

*That feeling when you fall off the broccoli forest*

But they are square holes. I didn't know that trypophobia included square holes?

Trypophobia

why

ME TOO

code parade is not updating this he just released hyperbolica a few months ago

What is an "ecuation"?

😮

Nah mate we still need drugs

@@keenanstrauss7898 they probably meant stuff like meth and such to go on trips, not medicine

@@duck3892 I can tell already you're a good dude

@@keenanstrauss7898 look, noneuclidian stuff, fractals, etc are trippy. The fact that you are addicted to something doesn't change the fact that if you watch stuff like this in VR it will be the same as if you were on acid or something similar. You can go waste your life away on something unhealthy if done too much, but if you've seen unreal engine 5, and combine it with noneuclidian VR games, it will be the same. Look, if you wanna experience it in your room you can even set up AR scanners on the environment for the game to be played at. Hallucinogenic drugs are way more expensive than this, and if ur going broke for a few trips and then a few more and then a few more, that's fine by me. If you have the cash, fine by me too. But you should always seek something of same quality, which can and will happen in the near future at an affordable price.

@@duck3892 this is a testament to how little people actually understand psychedelics, it's nothing close to only being visual, it's a literal flipping of chemical switches in the brain. I haven't tried psychedelics btw but I'm very experienced with their affects on people, watch someone go through a DMT trip and you'll realize it's much more than a visual anomaly, sorry I'm in a bit of an argumentative state right now, just got done having a rant in the Instagram comments about how white privilege is just another institution of racism, and how I don't understand why everyone hates me for being white when I have a heart of gold 😭

You are missing the point, get high and take it slow :p

This game wasn't really meant to be a ge, it was mainly to show off ray marching and 3d fractals in games. Check CodeParade's videos, they made it.

I see what you two are saying. I think it’s just the timer I dislike. Unnecessarily long timers in games always annoy me.
