Built a custom visuals animation system for my #GodotEngine tutorials and devlogs.

Upfront cost: Days of work

Payoff: Animations that took hours now take seconds

Investment already worth it and way more fun to work with.

I'm sharing my first devlog for #ChildrenOfKronos tomorrow morning.

Excited to talk more about the game and design process, specifically the gravity changing mechanic and how it was brought back from the feature grave by Mario Galaxy.

Keep an eye out!

Pretty happy with how this turned out.

Weapon sprite that reacts fully to level lighting.

A little visual comparison of the low-res texture style I'm using for my FPS Children of Kronos.

Albedo only vs Albedo + Roughness + Normal

Roughness and Normal maps are 2x the resolution of the albedo textures.

Again, everything is run through Quake 2 color palette.

Low resolution textures made in Material Maker combined with roughness and normal maps, all run through the Quake2 palette.

When you get a simple FPS enemy state system up and the computer can finally fight back.

Features:

- Idle, Patrol, Chase, Attack states
- Line of sight for obstacle cover
- Sight and Attack Radius

Will reintegrate the ragdoll logic next.

Godot Engine AnimationTree is pretty sweet.

Super easy to blend between animations and setup a state machine to control it all. Can also filter out bones so you can blend animations with even more precision.

Now to just connect this all to the movement code.

I have been sleeping on Material Maker. What a great, free, and open source piece of software!

With Godot, Material Maker, and Blender + Ucupaint combo...I am completely open source in my workflow.

Enemy system is underway, connected to Trenchbroom. Just place in Trenchbroom, select the type of enemy and connect a trigger object.

And with a base enemy scene that uses resources, all the enemy logic is in one place.

Playing around with the death effects. Will come up with something better than the "You Died" part but paying homage to the Doom just felt right.

What are some features, addons, plugins, QoL enhancements that you feel are missing from the #GodotEngine?

Boom

(you'll have to imagine the explosion part for now)

Localized physics-based hit reactions for my game's FPS combat.

Can't wait to test the shotgun

Hey!

v2 of the Godot Plushie just dropped.

I missed last round...not missing this one.

Sad to hear that Drew Struzan has passed away. If you grew up in the 80s - 90s, his art shaped your movie memories: Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and more.

His work reminds us why hand-crafted and human art matters. Every poster was a labor of skill and soul.

A true artist.

#SteamNextFest is here and I want to see what #GodotEngine games are joining.

Or if you're just working on something cool, share in the replies!

Thinking about adding an old-school centered weapon option. (and left-handed)

Quake 2 looks pretty good in the Godot Engine.

Using Trenchbroom's FGDSolidClass with func_godot to place gravity zones is awesome.

1. Create your brush for collision
2. Assign the class
3. Adjust your script settings
4. Build

Fast and easy to iterate.

Doors + Triggers = Lots of possible bugs

Nothing a little stress-test can't help.
