Very much agree on the idea about having to learn how to punch, and not just press a button.. Especially in a game where the main focus is... punching! can't just have a button press, I think you're going in a good direction :)
I don’t have a discord, so I’m gonna post this here. I’ve been a music producer for about 5 years now and I’m wondering if you want a free custom sound track? No strings, I’m just a HUGE fan of the game!
6:00 yess exactly, I never really like fighting game scause I always found myself just spamming random buttons. In punch à bunch you need to master the controls, there's an actual skill to be learned
If you try to make the game for everyone, you are making it for no one. Embrace what makes it funky and personal - that's what we want. It looks great. Awesome to see it coming along.
you are truly an inspiration to me, im 15 but I was able to buy all the courses you recommended, iv been on and off of unreal and blender, but now I see all you need is a little effort and dedication, keep up the cool funny vids. and make a vid on your editing software's and equipment, im not trynna steal your career promise :p
I have just tried the keyboard and mouse support and here is what I will say: - It works quite well on keyboard and mouse, however heavy hits are not as simple to use -I think you should add a feature where when both left and right punch are pressed a block or grab occurs -Keep going, your doing well, and stay motivated
Having a massive community give you tons of feedback on your game is both a blessing and a curse - don’t water it down too much! I’m happy about the camera speed setting though :P
Love, love, love the stamina idea. It's the right approach, reward for a successful hit! Super PunchOut is one of the greatest games of all time, not a small undertaking but I love it. Looking forward to trying the next iteration! Also so glad you enjoyed the "poopypants" comedy from my daughter hahah. We're in your corner Ponty!
Hey! thanks for including me in your video. I really appreciate your content and it is an honor to be a part of a demo. I look forward to future demoes and the final release of this EPIK game
Mouse and keyboard control: WASD:Move Mouse LeftClick: left punch Mouse RightClick: Right punch Q: left lean E: Right lean Space: Block (Just the basics)
I didn't have a controller, so I was excited to see keyboard and mouse support. I tried it, and I gotta say it worked fine for me. Honestly, when you described it in the video, it looked worse than what I saw in the game. I think you should keep it, and depending on other people's feedback improve. Keep up the good work, Ponty!
What I found when playing the mouse and keyboard version of the game is that the character was leaning back to quick. When you lean to the side, the character immediately starts leaning back to the center. To make sure it doesn't, you need a lot of space on your desk for your mouse to move around. That's why I prefer the controller version for now. But: you made a lot of good progress and keep up the good work!
Love the DevLogs keep them coming. Your videos are so full of emotion and time, and i'm glad to see you happy and love what your doing. Remember don't get comfortable, and get out side your comfort zone. Love u man!😁
You should implement a charge punch. When this happens, it makes your character move slower and you have the ability to add in your second arm at the same time, or even upper-cut and punch down on the head.
Once its in Early access, you can sit back, and just add the odd paid DLC here and there like all the other games out there seem to do.. new boots, shorts, shirts, hats, gloves, Tattoos, etc
congrats on your game man!! i was making a game myself but kinda abandon it because servers cost way to much and im using free servers lol but the ppl who helped me test the game play said they like it.
I think for keyboard leaning with the arrow keys (the longer the player holds the key, more leaning in that direction), movement with WASD keys, hitting with Space/Left Shift (Space seems more comfortable) is a good configuration. Leaves the mouse altogether.
In regard to the mouse and keyboard problem, how about adding two buttons (ex: "Q" and "E") and make those lean you back more in the correct direction. Might be misunderstanding the problem here, but the lack of keyboard support was what prevented me from trying it.
I’m totally with that.. make ur game. As a fellow GameDev I can’t imagine making a top quality video each week and still keeping up good progress on your game, not to mention having a life!! 😅 gotta keep the wife happy. If ur like me when she’s pissed off I lose all my creativity. Have you considered live streaming while ur working on things? Getting live feedback and ideas could be really good. That could help bridge the gap between videos. Career mode! 100% been mentioning this each week 👍 big bosses like fights, interesting mechanics. You could randomise mechanics so you don’t always get the same fight with the same boss. Maybe random between defensive, aggressive and outright wild. Picking fights to work ur way up to the big money fights. Reputation, money to buy new shorts, gloves and tattoos. It’s always good to work on 3D modelling when ur sick of coding and want to show some stuff for a video. Your game feel like ur trying to make a VR experience with a controller. I think it’s great. People will have to learn to play it. I think ur into a winner. Regards Stu 🥊
It’s been a while but I still gotta leave my annual comment of support. You’re one of the most underrated channel I know, but I also really feel like you’re on of the Channels to blow up. Once in a while I find that one small channel that I know, will get popular, this is one of those cases. Keep going! I’m sure you’ll grow a Big audience. Also the game is super unique so far, something I’ve never seen before, it’s awesome.
I'm very happy you released your first game Ponty. You are going to do awesome and I cannot wait (actually I can wait) until you get millions of subs. You deserve it.
Idea for keyboard and mouse: Using Q and E to rotate the camera left and right. It's more immersive if the camera can be adjusted, especially when moving while punching since it gives me more control over what I see and experience. In my opinion ofc, idk if other players can relate to this. I've also come across a problem which stems from mouse movement. Normally, people anchor their wrist to a table or a wrist rest when using a mouse, making the left and right motions more arced and curved rather than a straight left and right, causing me to sometimes lean back unintentionally. I gradually got used to it though, but it might be a problem to new players. Since the sensitivity is usually set pretty low, the left to right wind up has a bigger motion mouse wise. My experience with the game overall so far is very positive, cant wait to see it develop even further! Its really fun once you get the hang of it, you can perform mini combos with small jabs and body shots and then finish it up with a heavy hook, really fun!
Nice work and I'm glad to see the feedback was so great! :D I definitely think going to monthly content (or even longer) is the right call, the game right now has a good core gameplay loop, the best thing to do would be to polish and expand, rather than just expand, expand and expand, so definitely think its the right call!
I tried the keyboard controls and they feel ok and you get used to them very easily but I noticed a small bug: when I charge my left arm for a punch the particles still comes from the right glove. Overall experience was pretty good!
Yeah yeah for example you’re choking the guy with one hand and punching him in the face with the other hand Edit: but since they wear boxing gloves idk how would that make sense
I think you could probably use RB on the controller along with the left analog stick for head movement, while using the buttons for hits [ Meaning you could have more punch variations ].
for the mouse, i think mouse mouse movement should rotate the characters so if its not moving then the body rotates back to the centre so its more like a controller coz when your not moving the joystick it jumps back to the centre
I never comment on TH-cam videos, but I wanted to tell you as a PC gamer, the controls felt really nice! After this I wishlisted the game on steam and Im going to buy it when it comes out, if you keep the Keyboard and mouse support! It actually feels like Im punching ahah! Cant wait for it to be released!
The adrenaline system sounds dope, you should have it cap out after so many hits to where the amount of adrenaline or stamina you get back slowly goes down until ur just too tired
The stamina increasing when getting a good hit is a great idea! It reminds me of getting a combo in the old Minecraft PVP where the more you hit someone over and over again the more knock back/damage they will take.
Congratulations on the progress and great feedback! It makes me really happy to see your channel grow and see the process of game dev! Looking forward to the other videos as well :) Best of luck!!
The part where you started implementing keyboard controls REALLY reminded me of Dani (The guy who made MUCK and CRAB GAME) chugging a carton of milk before coding something. LUV IT
I enjoyed this video alot, you really seemed to be yourself. Other videos I got a casey neistat vibe but this really shows your personality when you talk more I love it. Great video I'm happy for you that your demo went so well
Duuuuuuuuude . What the heck happened with you and your content . I left you one year ago when you were playing games and now you are making your game ?! AND WHERE ARE YOUR OLD VIDEOS .I am confused , please explain .
Nobody wanted to see me play them so I started making them instead :) Apparently it's more fun to watch 🤷 I unlisted some of my older videos as it might be confusing otherwise. Iäll relist them when I have more gamedev videos for historical purpose 😂
Been watching your dev blogs for the past few weeks at random, Ilik too see your that you plan to release in 2021 and end up releasing only in january, at last is a cool game and a great project, nice job ponty, hope you learned a bunch from this project an will bring more projects like these =)
For replenishing the stamina I think that the adrenaline idea is cool! Maybe it could work like a combo meter? So if you land a jab followed by a heavy hit you’d get adrenaline or something like that
I downloaded the demo 2 weeks ago and it worked like a charm. It is super fun and I guess that later playing against someone else is going to be even better. Now, regarding the mouse and keyboard support; I think is a good idea to have that feature because, just like you pointed out, some people might not have a gamepad or some other people, like me, may have a very old gamepad. Whatever the case, I think it is not a bad idea to have more options, I mean, that never hurt anybody right. Keep going man!!! Punch a bunch is a bunch of fun!!! I added it to my StTEAM wishlist btw. Cheers!
As a fighting game a big part of the fun is learning the controls, to me anyway. For example learning new button combos. If everyone was good at fighting straight out of the gate, the game may get boring more quickly (what's the point if there's no challenge). So definitely think you're making the right move! :)
I like the The idea of adrenaline stamina boost ( increases stamina and punch quicker for 5 sec) . Maybe you get the boost when you get a perfect punch to the centre of the face. There should then be a cool down period of 20 seconds so that its not over used.
14:00 Maybe, just maybe, you could have a sort of D&D, trait/class system, where you can get some sort of token that allows you to improve a stat of your choice. So say you level up and get one token, you can use it as a sort of skill tree ish thing where you put the token onto a Stat branch, ie, speed, power, stamina, something like that, but there are trade offs. More a high strength stat may compromise agility, and all that This may not be the right choice for this game, being more about skill and control mastery, but it also allows much more variation in playstyle and match up interaction Just some food for thought
Your channel is dope! Been on a binging spree! Also thank you for adding the mouse, even if it might not work as well it really helps out for people who don't have controllers.
U should make like for example: Hats, moose antler, Viking hat, boxing glove stickers, intro of players avatar before fighting, emotes, pants stickers or patterns, ETC
Awesome! Really happy for you that you got a good reception, your dedication to refining the controls is worth it! I’m trying to figure out directional intuitive controls for my game that also need “mastering” and this has encouraged me too! Thanks
I really like the idea of making videos with some weeks extra in order to make the game and the videos be where they need to be. also, the idea of the different enemies with different characteristics. it is great and I would also love to been able to chose between those different players to play with
Some suggestions: 1: Options 1a: Add an option to lean where you move 1b: Option to punch with buttons 2: More buttons (With suggested button) With features Dodge/Dash (A) A little dash, enough to dodge a punch in the right direction. Run (Hold A, RB) Simple, gives harder punches while running Block breaker (LT+RT) Breaks the guard of the enemy Taunt (B) Just have fun Grab (Y) you can launch the enemy, if he have stamina he'll fall, but they can counter by leaning against where you wanna send them. Counter (X) A short block stance where you get ready to counter the next attack. 3: Effects: Tired: Gets this effect when you have not enough stamina. You lose some stamina by getting hit, less if you dodge, and more I you hit. Stunned: There is a chance that you get stunned, unable to move if you get hit in the face with more than 30dmg for example. Lost: Same chance as stun, the controls are inverted. 4: Game modes: Drunk: The ragdoll is exaggerated and the controls are hard Open Map: Chose between different environments where you can punch things to interact with Coop : Fight together with your friend, either against a lot of weak enemies, or few strong enemies.
It's great to see you go through the feedback and make changes. I do think mouse and keyboard input is really important but it's very different than a controller so it can be tricky to make it feel the same, but the sheer number of people that will play because of it is not to be under estimated.
For the mouse controls, can i suggest having a look at how they do mouse controls in the Mount and Blade Series. It's pretty satisfying and maybe something you can learn from. Keep up the good work, man! You are an inspiration!
I'm still gonna try for weekly videos, just not weekly devlogs :) Sorry for the confusion :) NOW SUBSCRIIIIIIIIIIBE! ❤️
Add me to epic pegbo
Ok
This is actually significantly different. I couldn’t survive without weekly videos.
@@manjarigupta5129 yey
If you read this, if someone makes a perfekt block, and a Combo after this, the Adrenalin goes up verry fast, and then the guy makes a finishing move.
Very much agree on the idea about having to learn how to punch, and not just press a button..
Especially in a game where the main focus is... punching! can't just have a button press, I think you're going in a good direction :)
;olk
Why are you on all the videos I watch😂 I just discovered you from a while and since that day and I see you all the time.
maybe a minigame when someone throws a ball or something and you have to punch-it back to train reaction time and distance management
A main mistake that some games make is trying to make everyone happy and then they end up making no one happy
this guy needs to blow up. his videos has so much QUALITY compared to other youtubers.

Yes yes yes
will ponty do this:

absolutely [_]
Yes and it will be even better if u can take different parts form charecters like the face from that and the shorts form onther one

Use the stick button ( when you push in the control sticks) to reset the camera instead of the up d-pad. Like L3 and R3 on ps4. Great video btw

Keyboard would defenetly be worth it. Much bigger market.
Yep definately agree. I don’t have any controllers to play this game
True
Omg...I enjoyed so much watching the players and their reactions!!!😍😍😍
You should implement a charge punch.
When this happens, it makes your character move slower and you have the ability to add in your second arm at the same time, or even upper-cut and punch down on the head.
i know im a year late but thats stupid
This man deserves soooo much more recognition and subscriptions, he works so hard on his videos and they are extremely entertaining
Can't wait to see the full game
Thanks ponty for giving support for keyboard and mouse now I can enjoy it 😀😀😀
Once its in Early access, you can sit back, and just add the odd paid DLC here and there like all the other games out there seem to do.. new boots, shorts, shirts, hats, gloves, Tattoos, etc

I like the The idea of adrenaline stamina boost ( increases stamina and punch quicker for 5 sec) . Maybe you get the boost when you get a perfect punch to the centre of the face. There should then be a cool down period of 20 seconds so that its not over used.
14:00
Maybe, just maybe, you could have a sort of D&D, trait/class system, where you can get some sort of token that allows you to improve a stat of your choice.
So say you level up and get one token, you can use it as a sort of skill tree ish thing where you put the token onto a Stat branch, ie, speed, power, stamina, something like that, but there are trade offs. More a high strength stat may compromise agility, and all that
This may not be the right choice for this game, being more about skill and control mastery, but it also allows much more variation in playstyle and match up interaction
Just some food for thought
Your channel is dope! Been on a binging spree! Also thank you for adding the mouse, even if it might not work as well it really helps out for people who don't have controllers.
U should make like for example:
Hats, moose antler, Viking hat, boxing glove stickers, intro of players avatar before fighting, emotes, pants stickers or patterns, ETC
Awesome! Really happy for you that you got a good reception, your dedication to refining the controls is worth it!
I’m trying to figure out directional intuitive controls for my game that also need “mastering” and this has encouraged me too! Thanks
I really like the idea of making videos with some weeks extra in order to make the game and the videos be where they need to be. also, the idea of the different enemies with different characteristics. it is great and I would also love to been able to chose between those different players to play with
Some suggestions:
1: Options
1a: Add an option to lean where you move
1b: Option to punch with buttons
2: More buttons (With suggested button) With features
Dodge/Dash (A) A little dash, enough to dodge a punch in the right direction.
Run (Hold A, RB) Simple, gives harder punches while running
Block breaker (LT+RT) Breaks the guard of the enemy
Taunt (B) Just have fun
Grab (Y) you can launch the enemy, if he have stamina he'll fall, but they can counter by leaning against where you wanna send them.
Counter (X) A short block stance where you get ready to counter the next attack.
3: Effects:
Tired: Gets this effect when you have not enough stamina. You lose some stamina by getting hit, less if you dodge, and more I you hit.
Stunned: There is a chance that you get stunned, unable to move if you get hit in the face with more than 30dmg for example.
Lost: Same chance as stun, the controls are inverted.
4: Game modes:
Drunk: The ragdoll is exaggerated and the controls are hard
Open Map: Chose between different environments where you can punch things to interact with
Coop : Fight together with your friend, either against a lot of weak enemies, or few strong enemies.
I would have a lot of fun mastering this game on ranked multiplayer
YES FINALLY I MAY BE ABLE TO PLAY IT DUE TO KEYBOARD AND MOUS
playing for a while: I love it, please keep it
Congrats
13:26 This is actually perfect for a neural net AI. You could probably make a really good one pretty quickly.
It's great to see you go through the feedback and make changes. I do think mouse and keyboard input is really important but it's very different than a controller so it can be tricky to make it feel the same, but the sheer number of people that will play because of it is not to be under estimated.
That is soooo cooool, when you get back all this feedback! For this is a TH-cam community just awesome!
For the mouse controls, can i suggest having a look at how they do mouse controls in the Mount and Blade Series. It's pretty satisfying and maybe something you can learn from. Keep up the good work, man! You are an inspiration!
Hello, i think your game is really good! Keep working on it!
