Oi, You sound very Nice and humble. Your art and dedication is amazing. Looking forward to more of your work. ^^
Such a fun main character! I’m not clear on why the enemies are robots though. Your main character looks like a medieval rogue or something, and the nature-based tile set you did in your new devlog feels at odds with the enemies being robots. Is there a narrative reason for why they have to be robots? I think with the weapons being music instruments as well, I think I would go with animals as enemies. Maybe even lull them to sleep rather than kill them? I don’t know. Your character looks so cute and the tileset so happy and wholesome. I would worry about the robots coming off as cold. And I’m not sure there is an intuitive reason why robots should be affected by music instruments. I don’t know. You might have thought a lot about how it all ties together and creates a coherent world. It just hasn’t become clear to me yet from the two devlogs I watched. Your art is beautiful though! With the right ideas and your beautiful pixel art, I think this game will end up being a success.
Thank you so much for the feedback, and yes your points are very valid. I hadn't really thought much about the story when I was making the art and general design, I kinda just dumped my ideas into a rogue like, which is not a bad approach, I think the most interesting designs come through that. However that comes with the cost of it being not cohesive. So I've been trying to think of a story to tie it all together. I'm thinking that the world has been invaded by robots, and it's the players task to get back in power. He / she uses instruments to disengage the robots, as they get overloaded with the musical sounds which they cannot compute. The character design I think needs a redesign though, many people thought it looked a bit generic which I have to agree with, so I'll make the character more inline with the design. As for the nature based tile set, I kind of like how odd it feels, as it makes it feel alien and unique. I don't think every design has to be perfectly in line with the story though, after all this is a rogue like. But a story can go a long way for immersion and giving the player a goal. I'll keep your feedback in mind, thank you so much!
Nice! What program do you use to edit your videos in?
Davinci resolve ☺️
@@calebgilbertyt Thanks!
Try "two-dimensional grids" of tiles, it seems that there is a video on GDC, I don't remember, the developer of Townscaper
This video is so good. I found it out because it seem to have linked to one of my shorts, and boy Am I happy about that. Best of luck in the development and on the videos.
Thanks, I'm glad you like it! Do you mind sending a link to the short? I'd be interested to know
Your game looks a lot like Challacade's game (another dev on UA-cam). Or at least the player character.
Yeah I've had a few people say that, I think I'm going to change it around a little bit as it's a little generic.
@@calebgilbertyt good call
Your voice sounds so comforting idk why
The editing in this reminds me of the stuff my teacher used to show the class for the game development unit. Love this
I'm sure this has been asked already, but what are the features and mechanics of your dream game that you feel are missing from the games that inspired it? I'm old as heck but trying to get perspective from other indies while my own dev work is underway.
I'm not too sure yet to be honest, it has a few mix of mechanics which I haven't seen been mixed before, but so far there isn't any brand new mechanic, I would love to make one though, it may require some brain storming 😅
@@calebgilbertyt Valid! Also IMO perfectly valid to simply make a new game out of the right mixture of mechanics that aren't already mixed in your other favourite games. Thanks for the response! ❤️ You're doing amazing work already!
Man this makes me feel old, I'm not used to people younger than me existing and being old enough to form coherent sentences. Imagine being 17 in the year 2024, should've been born a few years earlier nerd!
Ah my bad, let me just rewind my birth date a couple of years.
Hi Caleb I'm an indie game dev as well I really like the idea of this game if I can join you in making it I would be really happy 🙏🙏🙏😊😊😊 ps there could be an addon to the existing rule tiles where the robots have some robo overlord and the natural levels get corrupted by robots
ayyy nuclear throne
You are a young talented man, your work will fulfill millions of player's scapism in few years ahead. Keep on grinding
Are you solo developer
Yup
Love the HK ost
One of the best dev vlogs i have ever watched. Joining this jorney rn ❤❤
I love the idea! I'd like to know where you are getting those reference art works from if that's ok
I was just scrolling on Pinterest 😅
man wow this is an amazin video,by the way do you give away some tilesets to ur suscribers?
Not at the moment, but I am thinking of making an asset pack down the line maybe
Love your dedication!!
Hey dude im 13 and buiding a game with my 2 friends, one lives in UK(very far away) wish you the best!
Very nice! I live in the UK too 😁
woahhh!!! it looks soo good so far! could i ask what software you were using when designing the mockups ?
I used Leonardo, you can find it by searching get Leonardo
looks so awesome! colors fuckin pop dude! ❤❤
SHIIIIT. I am just making the GDD for the same idea. But you beaten me to it. So in a moment of defeat, I am wish listing the shit out of this game. Good luck ma dude
Haha thanks! But don't be discouraged, as the idea will most likely evolve so I'm sure our games will diverge.
I've been feeling demotivated to learn game dev, but seeing someone my age doing it makes me want to start again
That's so great to hear, wishing you the best!
Artists everywhere feel your pain brother! We have all been there.
Wow its you i didn't recognise your channel but when i looked at your old videos i realise that you were jetpack guy
Shh, no one needs to know about that 🤫 😅
Also your old tips of pixel art helped me a lot i am lot better at pixel art than i was before
Hey man, I don't comment on videos usually, but your work is amazing, please don't stop releasing good content like this. And I want to know where do you think is a good way to start in gamedev, I have a bit of a background as an artist but coding for me is so difficult 😅😅
Wow that means a lot thank you! I recommend learning Python before hopping into a game engine. Just practicing making simple projects like fizz buzz. Then I recommend learning the theory behind the programming paradigm, object orientation. It's what C# uses and thus what unity is revolved around. And I mean just the theory, still not in any game engine. Although I would normally recommend jumping into C# and unity, I've been playing around with godot recently, and I think it's the next best step. So once you've learnt the theory of object orientation, I recommend finally jumping into godot and getting a feel for the engine. Then I recommend learning gdscript which is very similar to Python however offers a lot of object orientation features. For this step, I recommend doing the gdscript guide / app by gdquest. And I think you can then be free from there, do what you like, and game jams are always a great way to stretch your wings and potential. Take this advice with a pinch of salt, as this is not a formula, just my best advice at the moment. Wishing you the best!
your work's beautiful <3
Thanks ☺️
The reason it's taking me so long to beat holo knight is because its hard as **** lol Nice work. I've just started my game dev journey, so its really good to see others journey's :) Thanks for sharing
Ik it took me so long to beat the final boss 😭
@@calebgilbertyt I've still not beaten the final boss... Haha
I love how you put hollow knight music in the background
🤌
I thought I couldn't learn how to create games but seeing you starting to create your dream game gave me enough motivation to start learning. I'm so happy to be a part of your journey. Good luck creating :D
That's so incredibly amazing to hear, it's great to know that I'm inspiring people, but making someone be confident in themselves to be able to do something is on another level, wishing you the best!
I am slowly starting to doubt my ability as an artist. I have just been struggling with animation and art because of school, and also just overall procrastinating. I am trying to get back into it, but I can't.
When you're super passionate about something, it's easy to bog yourself down in your imperfect ways, so don't be too hard on yourself. Art is a form of expression, not a talent, so keep on doing it, and be content with yourself, cause discouraging thoughts won't help. Wishing you the best!
@@calebgilbertyt Thank you brother, the little things like this help the most! 🙏
Bro. How are you this good at 17? It took me like 7 years to getting the confidence to show my games 😂
Through lots of help and encouraging comments 😁
4:50 nice Bzzzt reference image, Karel Matejka is a great designer
Hey there I/O I love your devlogs! Yes Bzzzt is too beautiful to be made by one person, I'm so jealous of his talent 😭
Oh and I love your Celeste music beats, they're amazing! I was wondering if you'd maybe be able to share a few tips for producing game music, it's something I'm relatively new to, and I'm super interested in it! If that's possible that would be amazing!
Which program or web page did you use for making that inspirational board?
Leonardo, you can find it by searching get Leonardo
@@calebgilbertyt Thank you so much! Really appreciated.♡
Have you watched Jonas Tyroller's recent video yet? If you don't know who I'm talking about, he's an AMAZING indie dev that gives out REALLY good advice. I highly recommend checking him out if you haven't.
Yeah he's really good, his latest video is great!
Maybe the game could be called, "Fiends and strings". The sad thing is the title doesn't really emphasize the whole thing about the robots.
I need that palette.
Sadly it's not a palette, I was picking colours freely, I might make it a palette though and maybe even post it on lospec. But we'll see
@@calebgilbertyt Yes please!
goodluck with exams 👍 + same, next month is gonna be my end of year exams, and here i am playing phoentopia awakening (for the love of god DON'T play it during exams, it's too good...)
7:37 how i so get this feeling man but yeah at least it got you to that final mockup which honestly looks amazing also i have a thing where i kinda feel like this game might fit with a more lively aesthetic rather than a baren wasteland, this wizard dude just fits so well in such enviorements (also we could make it so that the reason that the world is so vibrant is the magic in the area, places feed off of magic so the parts with more magic/magic of a specific kind are more vibrant, doesn't even need to be realistic (aka green) foliage but perhaps even blue white or purple if you wanna go the funky route, and with that it could help in more coherency while also having more freedom, as you can make both the baren wastelands and vibrant areas together based on which part of the game and how the story is going, and have a reason to why things really are that different that ties it all together)
Yeah definitely, that is so true, I'll play around with it, after all the mock up did have a lot of foliage in it so I'm going in that direction.
dude: gives version of tool karl: can't even pronounce the name tho tbf sometimes getting the recording enviorment again is pretty annoying
these videos are definately an improvement to old ones tho, great work man 👍
"it makes a big difference to have professional looks" cars being so close they are practically riding eachother
😂 true
1:04 "this script is terrible" oh 100% evne dani didn't write jokes like that...
"crossy road is a game about a chicken trying to get squished" my internet lagging at exactly the right time to freezeframe the dead chicken without interrupting you
2:10 usually at moments like this people would use footage refrencing what they are saying the moment you said amature games and brought that one dead cells pic i was like "UUUUMMM... WHAT ?!?!?!" for a moment before realizing you're still showing beatiful games xD
