The F11 thing looks so cool! Imagine if this game could autostart in that mode when you log in, so it just puts your favorite gadgets on the desktop to play with!
That just became a thing with version 0.1.6! You can add gadgets to your "Launcher" and that is a extra app that runs in background when the game is not running, enabling you to add your gadgets to the desktop, just like widgets on android/Sidebar from Windows Vista/7
If you liked this, you should try fancade. It's a bit like scratch with the visual coding, but it's got it's own physics engine and you can easily make your own assets. There's a ton you can do, and I'd love to see what you come up with
This game seems super cool honestly! And I love your result, I could absolutely see that being some gimmicky KSP tie in merchandise. Like a limited edition reward for some supporters when KSP2 is released or something
6:01 > i++ > i += i > i = i + 1 You have no idea how much I love this moment 😂 I'm learning another language but I kept using i++ because I'm too used to C++ 🤣
if u want, u can try logisim-evolution, it's a electronic "game" for exemple i create a memory register 8bit and i think the possibilities are greater :) i like ur poly brigde and scrap mechanic video (and sorry i'm french and my anglish is bad lmao)
Easy to pick up, and easy to use. Doesn’t feel as daunting I guess as normal engineering software. I think commercial games will always have big limits because of how they make money. May I also suggest p5, it’s an easy graphical intro to code, and it all runs in the browser.
I just had a thought, Retro Gadgets has similar screen manipulation tools to Plasma (unlikely a coincidence as Plasma and Retro Gadgets have a few of the same developers). This means that in theory, you could make your orbiter game in Plasma too.
Did Reid captain play Plasma? Also, it makes sense, one of the devs of Plasma is the guy who's listed as the guy who had the idea for retro gadgets so ye :)
Great video! This is game is very interesting, but I feel my brain would default to java far too often. I assume you had a similar issue when i++ became i = i + 1 lol
Well this is really super cool :D I wonder if you could transfer the code to work in IRL stuff, as I would really love to build these little gadgects in real life
this game looks awesome and u did amazing job. also few ideas to improve visuals and mechanic of your game make stars, make planet blue and moon grey or slightly yellow, make fire from engine of rocket that will change from speed. u can make few levels, with some asteroids that flying around and aliens that pulling spaceship
It's really particular but this game looks like an awesome mix between a zachtronics game and pico-8. It's got some really cool stuff in there that I haven't seen too many devs do.
Very interesting. I've considered trying to make something like this before, but then I remember I'm lazy... So the question is: how long before someone implements a rudimentary version of this game inside this game like they've done with Minecraft?
me having no lua expeirienc using the moving light as reference (Pretty much copy and pasting) Hitting my head against the lua wall trying to get the light to do and finally getting it to do is so satisfying
Hey guys, if you want to check out the game please use my link!: bit.ly/RetroGadgets_ReidCaptain
It’s way more complicated and expensive irl though
Please make another vid, great game!
The question is; Can it run DOOM?
Probably lol
Can you play Bad apple on them?
@@zhangjeff238 Most likely
Considering it's basically a more powerful, customizable PICO-8, which has actually had DOOM clones made on it, yes.
@@zhangjeff238 sure thing
You're the NileGreen of gaming.

I'd have to agree, even their tone and way they talk is pretty similar
I love the devolution from i++ to i = i + 1 at 6:03. Painfully relatable 😅
Edit: Of course the first full thing you make is KSP. Lol.
I miss java where I could just i++ lol
i wish they used luau instead since it has that
@チムール they prefixed that with "i wish"
@@ReidCaptain JavaScript
@@alexeecs Java supports incrementing
I played the demo. The problem is I have no creativity.
Same, but i haven't played it
Try to watch and subscribe to people who make interesting stuff, it’s good for inspiration!
I have the same in all sandbox games
Skill issue, ig you have no potential 😞
lol creativity is the key to everything. But when you can’t come up with any ideas, just steal someone else’s!
I saw the thumbnail of this video, searched it up on Steam, immediately wishlisted. This looks awesome!
Someone is gonna make a whole windows 10 pc using this i can feel it.

are you going to be uploading your creation to the workshop? It'd be pretty neat to tinker about with it
Yes! For once I am uploading what I made to the workshop. It is called "Orbiter 2".

Wait someone will create Retro Gadgets within Retro Gadgets

OH MY GOD IT'S LITERALLY WINDOWS VISTA GADGETS
I LOVE THIS
I respect your creativity so much

has anyone ever told you how absolutely genius you are
I absolutely love your videos, you are really talented in making videos and incredible stuff in those games!
This game is basically as if Logisim was a game but also with code
it wont take long for somebody to make bad apple in it
I would love to see more of this game
Great video! This is game is very interesting, but I feel my brain would default to java far too often. I assume you had a similar issue when i++ became i = i + 1 lol
Want to see more videos about this game from you!Its so cool.
Well this is really super cool :D
I wonder if you could transfer the code to work in IRL stuff, as I would really love to build these little gadgects in real life
Bro learned code in like 5 min and I’m here after 6 months still learning💀
this game looks awesome and u did amazing job. also few ideas to improve visuals and mechanic of your game
make stars, make planet blue and moon grey or slightly yellow, make fire from engine of rocket that will change from speed. u can make few levels, with some asteroids that flying around and aliens that pulling spaceship
I would love to see you play more of it
I'd not be surprised if somebody managed to build a smartphone in this sandbox simulator.
Or a laptop
(It even can run doom and play bad apple!)
That is exceedingly impressive for a 1st major creation…
Please more of this gem
I love these kinds of games and have always planned on making one myself. 👍
You should put chips on the back
I really hope this game will have analog circuitry... I am so excited for all the amazing nerds creating awesome analog synthesizers.
Makes me wanna try making a game boy
cant wait to tell my it teacher about this and watch your video in front of the whole class😁
Lol he didn’t make kerbal he made space flight simulator
Ye I Need this Computer irl so I dont Need my phone
This man has transcended blocks and transitioned straight into pure code and components
2:12 Reid casually forgetting y=mx+b
I love this so much and I see so much potential in it! It's like, Unity, but in a game (and prolly less powerful)!
You need to make more videos on this
neat. I'll have to check this h
game out
It's really particular but this game looks like an awesome mix between a zachtronics game and pico-8. It's got some really cool stuff in there that I haven't seen too many devs do.
Immense potential. I'm grabbing it.
This is so cool please continue it!
We want more!!
This really looks hard but I might try it out. This game looks innovative!
i wish this was avalible for mac! it seems so cool and im used to lua so i'd like to try it out!
6:03 relatable moment 😂😂😂😂
Very interesting. I've considered trying to make something like this before, but then I remember I'm lazy...
So the question is: how long before someone implements a rudimentary version of this game inside this game like they've done with Minecraft?
It would be a lot easier than in minecraft
really fun video! although i couldn't help but notice you put the word "here" at the end of every few sentences
Some people might be getting some crazy nostalgia
This looks really interesting! Kind of like a hardware version of Pico-8.
Do you already code or was Lua your first? Because this is really impressive!
This seems like a fantastic game!
Very cool, but it seems like a very hard game.
10:41 that's awesome actually
Dear Cap, I CRAVE MORE OF THIS GAME FROM YOU, it's as if it was made with your creativity in mind
me having no lua expeirienc using the moving light as reference (Pretty much copy and pasting) Hitting my head against the lua wall trying to get the light to do and finally getting it to do is so satisfying
yes. a pretty simple game that can simulate a spaceship landing on a moon.
so it's a virtual machine environment? (like pico-8)
ah, more than that i see. very cool!
Looks really cool. More advanced than PICO-8 and great for tinkerers.
More of this please
he made moon lander on a game boy color i love it :3
Take a shot every time he says "here"
soon someone will build retro gadgets in retro gadgets
I could inagine recreations of games into retro lol
math nerds can probably render fractals
This game looks really cool, but way too hard for me to figure out lol
I saw this on Reddit before it was released!
You might be interested in the game "TIS-100". It's a puzzle game one solves through programming in a fictional assembly language.
can you do a series out of this game pls🙂
Sure do hope they add support for other programming languages, I don't know much about Lua but I don't like the no curly brackets... ;P
This is not a game. This is real life. Reid you have been in a come for 16 years. Please wake up. Your mother misses you.
Please help me, how do I wake up?
Yes, i need to learn how to use freaking Lua code so i can actully play this game
somebody should make synths
games like this make me wish i knew how to code
ooh okay, your probably gonna make some complicated video on this isnt it?
How did you combine the screens like that. Or at least what method did u use to get them to act as one screen
Would have loved to see your code
This would be such a cool game if I knew anything about coding and electronics 😔
TT__TT same
i just saw the code of the led light and i made a face its extremely easy to make the lights
I downloaded your gadget!!
I wonder how long it will be before someone ports Doom to this.
Introducing,
Kerbal Space Program
By Nintendo
In 1950-ish
is there any story to follow or you just make what you want and that's it?
The Store page says "undocking" to your desktop is a feature, so the F11 must be its hotkey.
god there are so many possibilities
you remind me of easy speezy i forgot how to spel,lit tho
This feels like an arduino simulator
time for someone to make doom in this
Games have become its own simulacra.
zachtronics has entered the chat
I *NEED* this game
So you made retro sfs
More retro gadgets
We need more
How to make SFS on your own?
This game looks interesting.
Might get this game, do you need to know how to code in order to make something good? Or just anything?
Lua is a pretty beginner friendly language, there are tons of tutorials or you can learn from what people have already made
