after three or four years of trying, sending a new version of my game every year (Toziuha Night) I finally appeared in a godot showcase, that made me very happy, thank you Godot Engine :3 And the other games are looking better and better, I have put several on wishlist! I'm very happy to appear in the video and be part of the Godot engine community.
Immediately paused the video to go wishlist this. Love me a good Metroidvania, and this one looks like it's taking some inspiration from OoE, one of my favorites. Good luck!
@@saveborg1091They just take time to learn. DAWs aren’t the hardest part of composition. That said, I’d like to know what power composer is. There doesn’t seem to be anything about it on TH-cam.
@@saveborg1091 The capabilities of Power Composer are much less than that of a full DAW but it uses the lack of features to streamline the workflow for MIDI editing (meaning drawing notes on a grid instead of working with audio files.) The simplified interface and included instruments will hopefully make the program overall approachable for musicians of any skill level.
I want to create a video/audio editor program with Godot. Is it even possible? I am particularly interested in the waveforms of sound. Is it possible to make it so that users can visually see waveforms in tracks?
Really need some good built in way to handle IK, it's such a basic and expected functionality in most 3D game now a days to make things like slopes or stairs look more natural in 3rd person. But your only choice with Godot is "write it yourself".
@@Geskawary234 you don't need Unreal like lighting to make a great looking game. its all about aesthetics and less about tech. looks at all the current AAA games with super realistic visuals but shallow and boring gameplay. I would buy a fun game with visuals from the 90's rather then boring game with next gen visuals.
@@Geskawary234i think it isn't sucks, just godot doesn't give a complete lighting system as default like unreal does, but with work you can make lighting similar to unreal engine. Except ss reflection, because that is really sucks from godot3, but it will remade in godot4 maybe soon.
I've been looking for a combat racing game with power ups like some of the old ones on the PS2 / Xbox and IMMEDIATELY wishlisted your game when I saw it. Would be a total blast to play with friends, really looking forward to it!!
This is giving me some big appreciation for this engine, it's not like 'oh hey uh we can do photorealism' it's more like 'we can do what these games needed us to do'. Also now i have to check out that pixel dinsosaur game...
Hyper Flux dev here! Thank you for showcasing my game at 3:32 !! There are a lot of hard-hitter godot games this year and I'm glad to be a part of the legacy!
@@soyunbonus I don't think the average StS player would care about the art since even the first game isn't exactly a major advancement in graphics, the gameplay will be expanded as seen in the trailer and I'm very excited to see what they do besides the first game isn't going anywhere
I mean, it's a roguelike game. It's popular because it has a unique idea and fun gameplay loop. That's kinda the most important part of a roguelike game.
Aww, so many cool video james this year!!! My team wouldve liked to include our game, but our producer worried about the bespoke trailer content we'd have to make for our story-based game
Unity has showreels every year since like forever. Unreal uploaded a student showreel three months ago. You don't have to compare with other engines. Can't we just celebrate what people have made instead of trying to one up this or that engine? Just make games. That's all it should be about
@@ultimaxkom8728 Well you _can_ have fun and be creative _while_ making it, but you *don't* get to have a say on _wether you can keep it_ in the end. Or even before finishing it, ToS and EULAs can kick you overnight, you have almost no power except basic customer rights. I don't think you'll have much fun then. That's the "can still be fun *without corporate bs* " part I'm talking about. No one can take away Godot from you.
Godot is an underrated game engine, it has high potential. If it is used correctly, it can make games which will seem like it was made in unreal engine.
@stickguy9109 If I remember correctly, there was a testing shooter game which actually looked like that it was made in unreal engine but it was made in godot
It's just that in godot you need to create beautiful graphics yourself, in ue5 you can just press a couple of buttons, which is why godot games look so picturesque.
Big love for including Sand Stack, and look at all these other bangers! Such a great community and congrats to everyone here for sticking with your games! ☺
@@ferdinandkasangati5089 tried to force all the devs to pay per game install on every PC if they used Unity to develop their game. This included all the gamers that bought the game, imagine being charged for millions of times for some games and it is every time they installed even if they deleted and installed the game again. I think they backed out of that shitty decision though but the damage was done and now almost no game dev uses Unity.
@DraxTheDestroyer @DraxTheDestroyer not really bro, the community is still big, the reddits, discords and forums are still full And the courses are still selling so, I dont see any big impact it had
Godot has come along way. I love watching those year showreels of all that was made in a year. And the music is so cool. Someday my game will be there. 🙌🙌
This is stunning. Seeing Godot's potential delivered with such brilliant ideas and amazing graphics empowers anyone who's currently investing and believing in this tool. Thank you all. Our game about mental health “On Constant Delay” didn't make it to the video (it's our first game in Godot) but we're so happy that it won the Mental Health Game Dev Champions this year. To have done so by taking part in this beautiful community makes it all the more special.
The greatest accolade we can give to Godot is that it is no longer a big deal that a game is "made in Godot", it's just a normal contender in the game engine space, and I'm super stoked to have been supporting this engine since it's early days
Can't wait for the next year, excited to watch Showreel in this year. Now I'm realized Godot Engine could create games with graphics like AAA games from big budget game studio, this is awesome!
I didn't know that Parking Garage Rally Circuit was made in Godot! That's awesome! Also, I wanted to add another of the games to my wishlist … Turned out it already was on my wishlist. I am too active on Reddit, I suppose. 😅 Great showreel, great games, great engine, great people behind everything! A pleasure to be part of it! 😘👍
Despite being an Unreal user for more than 10 years, I really appreciate the approach of Godot team and the way how engine looks and progress. Amazing job from all the devs. Merry Christmas
Someday I hope Godot can be used as a full stack software development engine as well. I wish there were tutorials on how to make software like all the react tutorials.
Wohoo, what an honor to open this amazing showcase! So many cool games around, some from our friends, but also some i've never seen before. Artic Eggs looks amazingly wild, and coincidentally i just got The Rise of the Golden Idol yesterday and sunk quite some hours into that. In any case it is fantastic to see what is made with Godot, and how each year gets progressively more impressive. So, thank you for everyone making Godot a thing
Im very much a beginner, but im proud to be using godot. Did my first game jam (my first game!!) this year, and it was in Godot. Slowly working on a small little party game, the sort I'd love to play with friends. Godot is great.
Imagine being so passionate about game development, a group develop highly capable open source game engine. Godot is 1 of the greatest achievements in gaming history
It is crazy what open source can achieve. Godot is without a doubt my favorite Game Engine out there. If I get a game done soon, I will donate on a monthly basis! This project really deserves it ❤
I never tried 3D games before downloading godot last week, and it was always my first and only engine of choice the moment I heard about it. Great engine

Parece um bom metroidvania
Immediately paused the video to go wishlist this. Love me a good Metroidvania, and this one looks like it's taking some inspiration from OoE, one of my favorites. Good luck!
Thank you! @@SilviteWingnutOoE is my favorite Castlevania too!
THIS IS THE FULL POWER!
Nice bro
What?! I didn't know Buckshot Roulette was made in Godot
Same! Was shocked to see it
same here!
same
There will never be a time where I don't see backshot everytime I glance on that title.
I immediately recognized the window from how it opened wdym

I would never have imagined that some of these games would be made on Godot
So it appears Godot can do 3D after all 😁
eh, lighting still sucks. But we can see that 3d is getting better and better 🤟
If it fits in VRAM it's all good

Road to Vostok brought me here and now I see how much potential the engine has, I really wish you all the best in your projects
Hyper Flux dev here! Thank you for showcasing my game at 3:32 !! There are a lot of hard-hitter godot games this year and I'm glad to be a part of the legacy!
Surprised that the Godot team didn't even ask if it's OK to put people's games in the video
Awesome to see so many incredible projects pushing the boundaries in this space. Congrats to everyone featured!
More games = more content
This is definitely the most impressive showreel so far!
@@Capewearer why so much salt? if my game got featured in the showreel I can still praise it for all the other amazing games in there.
Thank you for including Sound Blocks in the showreel! 😊
Where can I play it @Nazarayco?
Yeah, can't find it anywhere
@@rodrigomeireles5966 Coming Q1 2025! :)

Thank you so much for including Townbox alongside so many wonderful creations! 💖 We can't wait to show off more of our game in the future!
Man it feels amazing to see my little game among all these incredible projects! Thank you!
A truly phenomenal showreel this year! Thanks, Everyone, for making so many cool games :-)
Great year for Godot! In 2025 our 3D game is gonna be in the Showreel 🤩
So many incredible games! Each year I'm more amazed by what the community can create. Congrats to everyone working on games or the engine 🎉
Aww, so many cool video james this year!!!
My team wouldve liked to include our game, but our producer worried about the bespoke trailer content we'd have to make for our story-based game
Godot is probably one of the best game engines I've worked with. Good showreel.
really looking forward to play Road to Vostok
Im so happy to be able to follow GODOT ENGINE's evolution since early 2017!
Godot is once again here, showing passionate artists and how game development can still be fun and expressive without all the corporate bs, awesome.
The most stupid statement. As if other engines don't let to do the same and even better.
@Rai2M the engines could've, the management and investors won't :)
Not without the corporate bs, it's just inevitable.
Unity has showreels every year since like forever. Unreal uploaded a student showreel three months ago. You don't have to compare with other engines. Can't we just celebrate what people have made instead of trying to one up this or that engine? Just make games. That's all it should be about
True. 101%. You can't be expressive and have fun if you use Unity or Unreal or any non-FOSS engines. Why? Management and investors, ofc.
@@ultimaxkom8728 Well you _can_ have fun and be creative _while_ making it, but you *don't* get to have a say on _wether you can keep it_ in the end. Or even before finishing it, ToS and EULAs can kick you overnight, you have almost no power except basic customer rights. I don't think you'll have much fun then.
That's the "can still be fun *without corporate bs* " part I'm talking about.
No one can take away Godot from you.
Every time I check on Godot and programs using it, I'm always left impressed!
DAMN ALL OF THOSE GAMES LOOK SO COOL
OMG! We are so excited to see Pest Apocalypse included! Thanks for making the most fun engine to make games in y'all!
Godot is an underrated game engine, it has high potential. If it is used correctly, it can make games which will seem like it was made in unreal engine.
True
It won't seem like it was made in ue because it won't require rtx69000 to play at 30fps at 1080p
@stickguy9109 If I remember correctly, there was a testing shooter game which actually looked like that it was made in unreal engine but it was made in godot
Road to Vostok?
That game was made in godot and looks like a UE Game @Swastik-f2g
@MoonyKoonony yes yes exactly
Can't wait to see! One of these days I need to update our trailer to get it in here :D
This is very encouraging. Congrats to all who's impressive projects got featured.
Well done everyone! Lets keep making amazing games with Godot!
Unreal might have realistic graphics but Godot has charm, art, and colorfully beautifully graphics
yeah and my hammer, screwdriver and sewing machine are cozy
you can have those in Unreal too lol. you just need to want to make it
It's just that in godot you need to create beautiful graphics yourself, in ue5 you can just press a couple of buttons, which is why godot games look so picturesque.
do you guys ever look up games made by different people and different game engines?
Big love for including Sand Stack, and look at all these other bangers! Such a great community and congrats to everyone here for sticking with your games! ☺
So many awesome games! Nice!
Damn, how inspiring! Makes me wanna get back to work on my stuff :D
Last year was already impressive, but this is pushing all the boundaries! Fantastic work, guys, keep it up!
Godot has become such a powerhouse, never going back to Unity
Well I don't think anyone is going back to Unity after the shit they pulled.
@@DraxTheDestroyer what they pulled?

Godot is a good engine, but it pisses me off that any game made on it can be decompiled in 1 click. And also that they openly support lgbt
And once again I learn: I'm not paying enough attention to the indie scene. Thanks for all those beautiful and new ideas.
Damn, very impressive reel!
I'm so happy to see how this engine is now having great use. Congratulations to each creator, you are creating very wonderful projects.
It's great to see how far Godot have come :)
Thank you so much for adding Canvas of Kings to this great list of amazing creations! ❤
wow the graphics at 3:27 are really realistic
It's almost as if it's real life XD
The hand model could use some subsurface scattering shader. And the head figure misses the texture. Otherwise it looks good.
Our game made it! Whoohoo
Our game appears last (Our Journey) ! Thx Godot and congrats too all the devs !
I wish they had shown more of it. I looks really cool.
It's amazing to see these awsome games that developed/developing with Godot! Also thanks for including No Gasoline⛽
Thanks for editing Stayathomedev!
Glad we made it to the showreel alongside incredible projects! ♥
Godot has come along way. I love watching those year showreels of all that was made in a year. And the music is so cool. Someday my game will be there. 🙌🙌
Nice last shot 5:00
I love Godot showreels.
Townbox gonna be amazing
It's crazy to see how far godot has come 😭😭😭😩😩
Looking forward to the future with this engine and community.
You have come a long way Mr Godot.
4:28 looks like the one monster truck game I've played when I was child on web.
Thanks, for including Zitifono in this amazing showreel!
What an incredible video! Such a variety of games and all charming or eye popping in their own way!
Looks like DitherDream didn’t get in this year. My next one will just have to be even better!
i was half expecting the music to slowly morph into can you feel my heart

Go, Godot, go!!! 🎉
Beautiful engine, beautiful developers...
Now I am going to download and try Godot Engine for making my dream game ☺
Oh boy, this looks awesome. Found right away at least(!) 10 projects I want to have a look at. Great work everbody! 🤩
1:43 omg! You showed Videodojos game?? I didn’t expect to see that. Good for him.
Bro why is there no gameplay of this do I really have to do this myself? 😂
@ apparently
Another fine year and a showing that this engine is gonna be a good one to use for devs who want to see their project hit that reality I feel.
It's cool how plugins were featured too!
Can't wait for the next year, excited to watch Showreel in this year. Now I'm realized Godot Engine could create games with graphics like AAA games from big budget game studio, this is awesome!
Where is GSS Match Mobile Games, it produced by Godot 4
One day I'll make a game good enough to be on Godot's showreel. Mark. my. words.
good job and thanks to everyone involved!
you can see the hand of stayathomedev in there... very well done, guys.
You forgot WEBFISHING
Thats kinda sad
maybe the game should’ve supported linux
All of them look amazing!
Can't wait until I get up off my butt and make something worthy of a Godot Showreel!
awesome work!
Townbox baybeeeee
I didn't know that Parking Garage Rally Circuit was made in Godot! That's awesome!

To me, these videos are one of the best way to find cool indie games
Amazing showcase. And EPIC music! Kudos to the composer.
I'd love to make a game with this engine one day! I'm currently working on my own though... lol.
