- Welcome to another devlog for Dauphin! In this episode I introduce Dauphin's first NPC and create a basic dialogue system so that he can interact with the player. If you stick around to the end, you'll also hear a sneak peak at what might be the beginning of Dauphin's sound track! I had so much fun building all of this this past week, and I hope you all enjoy the video.

![BOWKYLION - เจ้านายคะ (work-life imbalance) [Official MV]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/6bFj8G2pOi4/mqdefault.jpg)
In the hut you can have a fish tank with shrimps naned after the real shrimps that people have sponsored
Good idea!
Great idea
Yes
I suggest you add a secret room that just has a duck infront of a computer (1% of finding when entering a room and can only be found once) this duck can then be picked up and can be used as a little hat
Yes,YES, YES!
Genius
I honestly applaud you
Good idea, just it'll be good to disable the 1% chance before the first entrance as the player might be confused when he enters first time and this happens - might not try to enter the building again after such experience
And you can glide
I think 1% is a little bit high, maybe like 0.511
Inside the fishermans hut, you should put up a mounted fish on the wall, to fill in empty space on the back wall.
Yes!
Agree !!
You should add beached fish that corrupts animals when they get close. You need to clean them up.
You could also add minions for the boss.
Well, the crabs are kinda the minions.
Crabs that stick with the boss
I like the idea. Could eventually lead to know that the underwater is also corrupted. Not sure how je would implement underwater gameplay or maps. But fishes landing on the beach and corrupt stuff there is a really good idea.
Castafiel, perhaps scuba diving and then eventually a submarine or something?
It would be cool to have a main island where everything is scripted and there are the shops and a town then you go out on expeditions to purify randomly and infinitely generated corrupted islands
That's kinda the plan!
@@DevDuck lore leaked??
DevDuck what if you could find old ship’s and you have to travel tough them and fight a mini boss then the islands will be a little safer
@@turtleguy1679 he's laid out this plan in previous videos with the proc gen caves
that would be so awesome
can't wait to actually play it
Me too!!
Same here, it'll be a masterpiece of a game
TRUE
Same
Me too
I think the fisherman deserves a chair, he's old we don't want him standing the whole time
agreed
^^^
awwww
Agreed
YOUR FIRST ATTEMPT AT MUSIC? That's an awesome song for the first time!!
I agree it be groovy
my first attempt was pretty bad ngl
Maybe instead of pressing E, you have it to where you hover the mouse over the fisherman, and click and then different options to talk to him about appear next to him, and you click one of those options.
I thought about this. Ultimately I thought this approach would be easier to map to controller support. But still keeping an open mind!
Roddy or Rod would be a cool name for the fisherman
Yeah maybe Peter Rod ..??
Or willy
Roddy and his pet rod “Rod”. If you ask his naming of the pet. He would say.
“You don`t like it? What would YOU name a ROD?”
Bobrod
How much do you know about music? The fisherman's hut theme has a great groove but then you have a triplet marimba line over that and it's really interesting. I love that kind of rhythmic complexity
I have 2 suggestions
1: Day and Night: I feel like a game like this should change time and you could even add a sunset
2: Sitting: I don’t know why but I feel like sitting also fits this game. Just thinking about the character sitting on a beach sounds right.
Day / night and weather is definitely happening!
DevDuck Cool!
What if before you were able to buy from the store, you had to save the fishermen because he got corrupted. It would make sense because the beach is corrupted.
Damn that's a good idea
Maybe he could be a mini-boss
Also, the fisherman would prefer being outside fishing anyway.
Or maybe he could sell you stuff when you defeat the Horror crab bc he was hiding from the crab outside so when you defeat the crab he starts showing up and selling stuff
@@TheFaithfulAnon Or , you can trade with him with a special drop from the horror crab for a reward !!
I noticed the similarities to Willy’s hut straight away!! Stardew Valley is one of my favourite games - excited to see Dauphin come to fruition!
That's what I thought too! It's almost exactly the same!
Excuse me?! Can I speak to your interaction manager?!
Sorry for the corny joke
how dare you! you "triggered" me. i'll have to "Launch" a complaint
You could add a collectible in which the player has to find and gather the shrimp we've donated, then you could have an extra room/menu where the player can view all the shrimp they've found and see the names of the shrimp and the names of people who donated them
Make the camera unable to pan while inside the hut. Upvote so that DevDuck can see!
I found it is always convenient to be able to see the past dialogue e.g. via a script that gets updated. Sometimes you just don't really read and after the dialogue you realised it was something important.
If you end up making a fishing feature, you should add a canoe and be able to fight corrupted fish!
and as the player progresses through the game, the chance of encountering corrupted fish is less.
Ooh, it would be hilarious to let the player buy fishing equipment, and then give a little notification to the player asking, "why did you buy that? This isn't a fishing simulator. Sell it back." and then the shop owner won't give a refund.
What if the giant fish is the final boss and that's what started the corruption spreading?
Yooo! Awesome job on the vid, like always :) Your content consistently gets better and better. You had me hooked when I first got introduced to you via Blink. Keep up the grind my good dude! I hope to be a great content creator like you one day. Cheers! :)
Keep grindin man! Can't wait to see where your dev journey takes you. Subbed.
@@LeaferBag Thanks man! I definitely appreciate it!!
I just had a very cool idea! For the shopkeepers song, it can be a calmer, toned down version of a song that plays on the island! So you can really get the feeling of how cozy it is in there
Honestly, the music sound great!
Also, here's an idea for the game:
If you get corrupted by other corrupted creatures, you will corrupt any non corrupted creature you get close to.
Different music for different scenes would be a task worth doing. For the cave maybe a spooky sound track. And what you have for the beach works 👌🏼
The fisherman should have a side quest.
Fisherman shouldn't hang out in the hut, you should have to go get him from the beach where he's fishing, because no fisherman I know would sit around inside watinig for customers while there is fishing to be done right outside.
@@LeoStaley so true ;)
@@DelRubikeo I have loved your channel for years despite not speaking Spanish. You've always got interesting puzzles.
@@LeoStaley thank you! Soon I will return with more interesting puzzles!!
The background music is the best!!
Idea for the end: you discover the corruption came from your own trash. This shows you that changing the world starts with changing yourself.
Cool Idea (everyone upvote this)
I feel the story should be more up to devduck himself, but it's a great idea nontheless
I love the progress on the game, and congrats for 100K!
Yes new video! 👌👌👌👌👌Thank you!!
I’m so happy you didn’t do the text style where it starts from the center and shifts left as more texts appear. Because it’s unreadable when it’s shifting.
Also, if the fishermen shop theme is changed, the original must be some Easter egg somewhere in the game.
You should be able to take the fishing pole on the outside and have a response from the NPC like,
"HEY THAT'S MY FISHING POLE"
I believe that what you are doing is motivating and helping many people, continue with your work, I hope to play this game someday man!
Been watching every videos of Dauphin
❤️ love this series ❤️
Your first music track is really good for someone who's never composed before, I'd say it really fits what you intend to use it for and wouldn't mind hearing it in the final game. Dialogue system seems to be coming along really well too. Great job on this one, will be looking forward to your future devlogs!
I LOVE the devlogs. I wish you could post more frequently, but the quality of these are so good I don't want you to rush them. Your pixel art style is super clean and unique and I'm loving watching this game come to life. Keep up the great work!
Awesome work! I loved the shop music, I think it's insane that you managed to come up with something so good just like that! Kudos
I’ve been watching this from the beginning. This is looking so good man! Excited to play someday!
This dev log never fails to be the highlight of my week when it comes out!
I'd love to see the camera move and centre on the fisherman's hut when your character gets close to the shack. @6:02 highlights this best - you don't get a full view of the shack until your character is already walking through the door, then we get a fadeout. Short of zooming out so the player can understand their surroundings more, you could add a proximity-based camera movement so the camera lerps in; then, when the character moves out of range, it lerps back to the character. You could even re-use the interaction manager you set up for such a purpose!
This motivates people who are trying to develop a game just like me and my brother, thanks for the content!
Good video! I love this devlog more than all the others. Continue like this.
Really good stuff, your building out all of your systems. Will make it a lot easier to create other npcs faster!
these vids always calm me down with the chaos of whats been going on recently, thanks for the effort you put into these for us!
I love that little fisherman's tune. It is really cute and chill in the background. I would definitely keep the base theme.
Wow! The month has seemed so long without you. Thanks for ur content.
awesome as always! The shop music fits so perfectly! also all the pixel artwork is so colourful and tropical I love it :0
This game is starting to look so awesome! If you ever feel demotivated just keep going, it will be worth it when you see the end result.
This dialogue system looks pretty cool and it's great hearing your first song. Keep up the good work!
congrats on 100k, I watched you since you had 30k... I knew you'd make the milestone!!
I have been waiting just looking in the channel
YES NEW VIDEO!
When one of your favorite music youtubers and your favorite youtube game devlogger intertwine... good job on the music!
I am sure you already are aware of this, but to me, you fisherman's hut kind of looks like it is floating. Maybe adding some kind of shadow will make it look more natural. Or you could have sand on the side of the building. Great work on the inside. It looks great!
You're right! I'll make a note of that
Love your videos have missed your videos they are a so big inspiration for me when I’m trying to learn game development
I have a suggestion for your game:
After a certain amount of time all non-corrupt creatures can regain back their corruption from a crystal, what crystal? Well basically each big zone has 1 corruption core that has to be detroyed by the player so it stops corrupting the creatures. While destroying the crystal the player maybe will have to use a special tool. This can add a lot of lore and just coolness in general, It's a suggestion that you probably can't do right now, but I'm just spreading my mindset. 😇
I think he’s going to do this with bosses
Kinda cliche with a crystal
your new art looks great. keep it up!
For music, you should have different themes for different times, kind of like animal crossing!! Also you should implement a time system. If fishing is a big part of the game, then you should be able to only catch certain fish at night time and vice versa. Love this series!! Keep grinding man!!!!!!!
Looks great mate. Love your dev log style. You’re so mellow! Haha
I can't wait for this game to come out. You inspire me allot!
I really like that song! Good job!
Cant wait to see whats next. Wish the game was done so we could play it!
This is so relaxing to watch while doing work :)
keep at it! im soo proud of your 100k subs! your doing great!
Love your work, as always. Digging the first cut of your music, and keen to hear more about video game music theory as you progress. Your interaction mechanic could now be used to handle entering the hut as well as engaging in dialog, however I also like the simplicity of just walking through the door, like you already do through the caves, so i'd say just leave it as is!
My next devlog will be up in just a few days, and have definitely improved on my lighting since we last spoke! Hope you can check it out :)
Cool Can’t wait for future updates on this game
Same (
Game is coming along so well. This and Lumbermill are the two I’m watching and very excited to play. 👏
The music is really nice~ good job!
This is amazing
Great to see the progression of the game as always, I feel like my project is pretty much around the same progression as yours and I personally like comparing the progress in the month heh. Been loving the series, you are a big inspo and your tips really have changed my life for the better. Keep it up
You should make it so that the fisherman's shop is only open through certain points in the day and other times you can find him fishing on some sort of dock :)
Your first attempt at music is honestly great man! You've got a great ear for music! I'm a composer myself working on a score for a game I'm on the team for, I'm also doing the sound design for that, and if you ever just want to talk music or sound design or anything like that I'd love to chat with ya, cause tbh that shop theme is pretty great as it is. All I think it needs are some counter melodies and it's very usable.
finally i love watching your vids
I think you should change the fishermans (npc) hut to like a beach hut you would normally see at the beach. It would be on like suport beams in the air (not to high) and there are stairs going to the door. Mabye there could also be a bit of sand on the stairs as if other people have been there and left sand on the stairs from when they were going in (cause its on the beach) I just thought that was a cool idea, i dont intend it to get added to the game but really would enjoy if it did! Even if it doesnt, keep it up! (the series) i really enjoy these videos and i hope to see more!
Hey, I just wanted to say that I really look up to you. I'm a college computer science freshmen who recently started game dev. You're in the exact position that I want to be in in the future. Keep it up man.
I’m so hyped for this game! It’s looking really good!
I think the shop theme music sounds great! As creators we tend to focus on the flaws of our work, but don’t let that stop you! And even if it’s not perfect, you will only improve as you move on to write the other themes in the game. Good work and good luck!
i like the track, keep up the grate work!
Looking great!!!
The fisherman's name should be Mack. You know, because it's short for his full name "Mackerel".
YES! SO GLAD YOU FOUND ANDREW'S CHANNEL. He's my favorite music TH-camr. You did a really great job for only just barely starting out!
The music really brings the whole scene to life, it looks and sounds great
I just love your devlogs. Also your game reminds me of Star Tropics.
Love the new music!
love u and ur pixel art, using Godot myself. Pixel art course?
I like how you take your time
You might wanna add camera constraints to the shop scene so that half of the scene isn't empty void and players can appreciate your fantastic art work. Great job with the game so far it looks great!
The music is super cool! I was shocked when you said it was your first ever attempt cuz it doesn't sound amateur or anything at all!
Dude you just inspired me to godot from unity you won't believe it you work is inspiring 🤯🤯
That's a great piece of music for the shop. Really cool that it was your first attempt at making music. My first track was nowhere near that good. I've watched quite a bit of Andrew Huang myself.
Finally!We got a video
Your workflow it's so smooth, organize and relaxing. Can't wait to play the game. Could you do a video explaining how you prioritize your tasks?
The Godot Engine supports built-in logic to show a % of a text (dialogue) blob. Using that might be easier than implementing it yourself. For a reference, it was featured in a Game Endeavor video on dialogue.
The melody is solid! Has the vibe down pat. I could see adding something like steel drums as a backing but that could be too on the nose.
Good thing you don't rush the work to upload a video
I totally recommend it because it's your dream game after all , you have to do it right :)
The music is very good as a first try 👍🏻
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️YAY LOVE YOU!!!!!
The shop theme sounds great! Good job on it. If you can whip up music like that on your first try, you will probably be able to make the whole sound track without breaking a sweat.
I think the fisherman should maybe give mini quests or tasks the player can do for a small reward like an item or discount
you're just epic
In the hut, maybe make it so that the camera doesn't move so it stays in one place and it dosent feel like you're in the middle of nowhere
the music is soo cool. this game is going to be great.
E is great for entering the dialog box, but the space bar for jumping and progressing through the dialog box is the first key id press to try.
youtube needs more videos with devs using godot :D game's looking good (y) (y)
