I am watching this project with GREAT eagerness! Hell yeah, man. Keep loading/unloading that gun!
glad to see you follow this one too krug lol
and now Kruggsmash is here. Yeah, this checks out for some reason.
Hopefully I can generate some good story material for ya Krugg
@@code4brokeIn many ways this game does remind me alot of Slaves to Armok 1!
Oh hey ser Krug..fancy seein you here
keep the old trees for a creepy forest
Boy, I sure hope this game will have lootboxes and battlepasses
On a more serious note, those trees are a drastic improvement. It's crazy what a difference they make for the ambience
I was thinking of doing this for April fools next year
Funnily enough, I do a very good Monica Lewinsky impression, but only under a desk.
lol
The old trees you made or something similar could still be useful, since hey kinda look charred and dried out they could be located near a volcano that has recently erupted or in a place corrupted by evil magic
They would need to be retextured.
Hell yeah, chronically on youtube but this is still my favourite series.
This is one of the few channels that doesn’t get stored into watch later. They are always watch now
True
A field of grass that parts when you walk and hides goblins would be awesome.
Definitely in the to-do list
I love Dwarf Fotress, and Canda.
You should make rice the official currency of your game
Me: Whoa. Look at that. Who'd wanna live in a place like that?
3D Artist: That would be my home.
Me: Oh and it is LOVELY.3:00 I like that boulder. That is a NICE boulder.
Jokes aside if you're worried about people stealing your shit, having videos of you making them or prototyping them is the best way to protect them without going and filling copyright.
It's a misconception that copyright is what grants you legal protections of an IP. It doesn't. Those protections are inate. Just getting things filed makes it easier to refute them in court. If you can produce a video evidence of you creating whatever it is, the nets evidence that you created it first and whoever was trying to steal your IP will have to fight that in court.
That's good to know, thanks
Hyped for this game. Any Kenshi-like game is positive for the market.
this is sick, never stop
I never will
I like the OG tree in contrast to the new trees. I hope you can find a way to work it in somewhere
It's great that you got a volunteer! Just make sure to invest in a leg iron in case he starts becoming *too* competent.
MAPLESTORY GOLEM!!
The best kind
The new trees are great that guys doing a great job
looking forward to the little green ghouls, hoping to see magnets and milk steak too!
Milk steak Easter egg is a good idea, I just don't like people's knees
@@code4broke if you end up doing the milk steak easter egg you should make it break the consumer's knees or make them see hallucinations of little green ghouls. thats probably too much effort for a small easter egg but im just kinda spitballing some ideas :)
Instant subscribe!
What you really need is an evil tree. It might make a nice first big enemy. It could look normal until approached (or indeed be normal and swap out models) then it starts swiping at you. A full blown ent would be a lot of work but even just a tree that lashes out could be cool
Different forrests different trees, yours are beautiful.
Bless your heart
Good job on the trees
It’s looking good brother
Thank you
Can't wait to play this game :D
I love the aesthetic! The old trees fit very well i think, you should definitely keep them for something!
The game reminds me a bit of Evil Islands (purely because of the top down view and the blocky models)
Hey just found this channel, loving the optimism, good luck in the future
Thanks brotha
and this boulder
I kept this open in a new tab and finally got to it, you're such a memer. I'm only a minute in and I'm entertained and have no idea what your wacky game is other than a Monty Python Black Knight simulator based on watching the character get dismembered all over the place lmao.
Yall earned a subscribe & like, I hope you guys kick some ass with this project and I hope it's successful!
Thanks my man
I think you should add a similar texture of the new trees and add them to the old trees and add leaves then mix those with the new variants of trees as well because I like how the branches stick out more and cover your screen it feels more cinematic that way also add more jagged mountains to the generation please
I'll tell the art guy. Jagged mountains are in the plan
Always looking forward to seeing what progress you have made! Nice work on acquiring a goblin!
imagine the kenshi dev team(the self published) consumed you to help you out with this game tooooo would be fire - i know they have some people in toronto.
when this game gets big, I will be insufferable, talking bout I've been there since day one 🤣🤣
I lost track of this channel, but I was wondering if it was still going. glad its still alive! progress looks great!
This game looks like it can grow into something seriously cool! Keep up the good work man!
awesome!!
Believe me homie that dude will graphically redesign the entire game 12 times before youve even made 1 new feature, coding is torture and artists do not know the pain, the suffering, the 5 billion hours spent fixing 1 typo bug, all is soul in the new world
your game is very intriguing. I say that as an old hat who has seen many things, I can tell your game has interesting nuance
all these new models are so good looking the player model sort of blends into the background. optional cell shade or highlighting or something would make the character easier to see.
Your game is looking great, but you'll never finish it if you don't clean your room.
love these Graphics, Gives me that simple, cozyness of Classic Runescape
It's so interesting that DF and Kenshi are so closely tied together
Great to see that things are going well, really makes the future look bright.
It's been so rad getting to see the progression of this game's development, and I'm glad to hear that things are going well!
Thanks man
wow tree variations were exactly what i was doing today
Oh yes... Yes! You have me on the edge of my seat. Great job thus far.
4:20 GPU mesh instancing is extremely performant at rendering lots of something, and you could probably have a single game object with a list (or an array) of positions to spawn the instances at.
Yeah, I'll be looking into that for sure
Idk if its been suggested or youve moved past, but those old trees would be wonderful for the Gobbos dwellings for Da Bois to raid and laugh at while they walk away
You can use both tree models, for different biome for example. They both look nice.
Keep at it sir! Because if not, you'll be the one in my cellar, working on this till the end. Yours or your game's
Then I have no choice but to finish
damn, good comedy, will stick around to see your subscribers go through the roof
The new models are AWSOME -- they add so much to the game world! Do you think further down the line he'd start working on 3D character models as well (like in Kenshi)? Or are the sprites in the game to stay do you think?
Well the sprites are just rendered from 3D models that I made, so he'll probably contribute characters at some point. We might go 3D eventually with a shader to emulate the art style but nothings confirmed yet.
Cant wait to play this game !!!!
I’m excited to see what will come of this!
Sick game brother. Good luck.
Nice
Lindenmayer systems are good for generating plants
The game looks really prettty right now.
I wish you good luck and hope to see this project to completion one day. (soon)
Thanks pal
lets goooooooo !!!! goty
looking forward to playing the hell out of this game!
we really do need a specific name for this type of genre cause i absolutely ADORE it
Pretty sure they’re just called Sandbox RPGs.
sandbox RPG
You can use plant factory to generate trees and plants with random variations automatically, and you can generate random shapes for rocks in blender with a free addon
I tried the tree generator and the results were not appropriate for video game assets - disconnected branches, too many polys
The outro. You are now one of my favorite TH-camrs
When I was little, my father was famous. He was the greatest samurai in the empire and he was the Shogun's decapitator
@@code4broke I'm sure he ain't nothin to f*@k wit
depth of field/blur effect is so bad looking. the rest of the game looks awesome and all the devlogs have been epic tho
Im intrigued
Really nice to see that. Way too often with modern games it seems as if they are missing a soul, a greater vision and dedication, mostly due to how commodified and corprotized it seems to have become in the last decade+.
Throw in a few more differnt trees and rocks, then a frozen, cold, wet, hot and scorched biome and variations for those and opticallly you'll be golden in that aspect.
Rather than making it just completely random in the generation you could also have a randomized size/scale variation aswell as a density going on with the trees that scales with the fertility of the surrounding land. Ergo -> more fertile areas will have larger, stronger and healthier looking trees regardless of biome.
Of course some biomes like frozen and scorched could be limited to a max fertility, meaning that in those areas seeing trees will be relatively rare and those that are there will usually be barely scraping by.
On the flipside the hot and wet climates could receive an overall boost or even go beyond the regular fertility levels, which would mean they would be teeming with vegetation, meaning you will have actual jungles, add a relation or hightened fertility to a certain area around a river and I'd say you are set up for success on the vegetation and biome side of things of your world generation. :)
(Weather COULD also play a role aswell, but that's beyond the scope and would get too complicated and messy I'd say)
Yeah shit man I didnt think about checking in on this video but Im glad I did. Thanks now I want to load up kenshi and spend another week grinding skills lol
I have a suggestion so that old tree design could still be used like you could make a biome called "dead forest" or something like that with trees without leaves and maybe even make undead monsters like zombie goblins and make it easier to find crypts, graveyards etc in that type of biome
I like the idea of a dead forest, I think we can make better dead trees though
Awesome video.
I think Bill Clinton is the voice of the TV in project zomboid... or maybe it was you.
I can’t wait for the structures and dungeons
Coming very soon
this looks so cool
Great progress.
Can we get some gacha mechanics and a buyable skip to the ending credits? Great video dude, got some serious SsethTzeentach vibes going.
We'll start with five dollar horse armor and go from there
This looks fucking amazing man
You're dope as hell dude, hell yeah
hell yeah
nice
Looking pretty good, but I feel like there needs to be more varieties of the plants.
nice its looking good!
Much like commentary, video exceptional, inchoation intentional🤙
Love your work
Much appreciated friend
If one more person says the old trees look better I’m going to take away his rice.
Love the jokes in the video. You earned a sub
The old trees fit the rest of the graphics better i think
I will subscribe for now and wait for future progress, but dude if you make this as great as kenshi I will donate my kidney for you.
Love rimworld
when you zoomed out a bunch i got *vibes*, so maybe theres something to riff on there
One day i will find a game with immersive ultra violence and not ultra violence and immersion... one day...
This is wicked news
I like the old trees more. They had more character.
Damn looks alive bow
The most cursed part of this video is seeing a canadian owning a gun
Don't tell Justin
I think the 2d plants should be tilted back a bit to accomodate the camera angle. To show more of the awesome models!
I'll test that out and see how it feels
Its cool too see a fellow Canadian coding in his moms basement with his wholesome well fed buddy, and I have enjoyed watching this for a long time.
I do NEED too know if you see this tho
When deer?
Don't you mean moose?
@@code4broke Moose are very cool true, however everyone knows deer are the right amount of creepy
Also a deer is holding a gun too my head I really really really hope its deer ;~:
really my vote for POTY, prototype of the year
Amazing artwork, I do have a question that might be to in detail to answer.
do you intend to change the isometrically (angled?) 3d character models and cycles that you developed for a fully 3d rendered model now that the environment is a 3d render or is that not an issue that needs seeing to?
(to further explain my question the character seems to be in the same dimension while it seems depth and foreground change around him, this might just be the difference in texture quality and not an issue, but I know you intentionally designed the animation cycles based on the sprites in a certain way and want to know if that changes)
The art style is pretty up in the air right now and definitely subject to changes, I just need to focus on some gameplay for the time being before I hash it all out.
Will you be the one to finally allow me to build my army of goblins?
WOW, that's great news! The team is expanding! How should we actually call the new guy? He falls into the nameless protagonist category now
I'm not actually sure what his name is
@@code4broke wut :D isnt he a friend of yours that you can trust, is he an online volunteer?
3d foliage < pre rendered 2d foliage
I'm curious about the lore, if it's been written yet
Just some general thoughts on direction so far
Awww
No more dead white trees
No way youre creating a single gane of muy thre favorite games
Yes way brotha
