What do Capybaras and JavaScript have in common? Well, this video! Today, I'll play the role of a full stack developer and create my first game in JavaScript with no experience.
Hoppibara
(I could not get Kaboom.js to export properly so no link to the game this time.)

Creating video games can be quite challenging, but with cool frameworks like Phaser, Babylon.js, or Kaboom.js using JavaScript is really easy. JavaScript is fantastic for beginners due to its user-friendly, high-level scripting language and extensive community support that makes it accessible for those learning to program. And honestly, it's perfect for people who are asking the question "How to learn how to program?" or "How to make video games".

SUBSCRIBE if you love Capybaras!!! ♥♥♥
CAPYBARAAASSSSS
CAPYBRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA(goes forever...)
hi
Bara
I subscribe (:
I've always loved the "style" and branding your channel has. I know you probably won't see this, but I just wanted to say that you are such an inspiration for me right now in so many things: GameDev, Content creation, Graphic design and so much more! 😁
Quick everyone like this so it gets seen
boost it
Boosting it
Boost this!
He did not know this would be top comment💀💀💀💀
I really love how you design your sprites, both pixel art and vector designs.
Of course he made a Capybara game, everyone has to make a Capybara game at some point. It's like the modern gaming equivalent of Hello World.
I literally just started to code for my Masters Thesis and it is so fun! Right now I am only coding scienc-y stuff with a lot of data extracting and auto writing files, but I would love to try out some game coding later down the line!
man i hope to reach your level one day. CS is beating me down right now.
Go for it!
Definitely try it out. I realized I didn't like making 3D games becaude of the modelling lol but I'd like to try creating 2D games when I have time. I have more experience in digital drawing than 3D modelling so that will probably be more fun for me.
@@mintplays7923good luck, don't give up. It will be worth it 🙌
@@mintplays7923very different type of programming, they're mainly focused on data and math, so very different from regular programs, especially what is focused on in CS
Wish you would’ve leaned in more with how JavaScript worked for your game. I gave up C++ because it was too stressful, but with you having literally no experience at first made me realize that I could start back…
If I wanted to
Brocode has amazing videos if you wanna learn a language. Im watching his java series rn and its been a blessing to have him put the content on youtube.
Great video! Your vector art is always awesome!
Im in love with that artstyle...
Me too❤❤❤
Thanks! It gets cuter every year.
Same
Same, it's the most adorable thing, definitely the best part of goodgis games are his graphics.
@@Goodgishow are you doing this style. I am super new to design. Can you tell me what this style is called I can probably take it from there and also what design software are you using?
Dude this is perfect 😭 the capy looks insanely cute I want to play this so badly 🤣
Also really dope to see you make it in Javascript! My first real experience with gamedev was with Phaser so making games in Javascript has a special place in my heart :'')
hey i just discovered your channel and i love it! Are you full time on your indie game? Keep it up! 👍
It's so cool to see this! I've been learning Javascript Development using P5.js (it's not really meant for games but I've used it for a while for art and it's both less intimidating then vanilla JS and gives me more control of designing my engine in a way that more game focused libraries don't) Right now I'm in the middle of a space invaders clone and it has been so much fun! I'm getting a little drained by how long it's taking and this was just what i needed right now. I never realized what a motivation boost it would be to recognize the code on screen, it felt homey. Your game looks adorable and Kaboom is an awesome choice for a library, great job!
If vanilla Js is intimidating to you, you have a much bigger problem than what library to use, and also you have absolutely no clue what you actually want from a library, because you haven't broken bad beliefs and built new ones about programming. You are at the start of the dunning kruger curve. Move forward on it before you do anything else, otherwise your projects will have bad code, bad architecture, will be impossible to maintain, completely unintelligible, and when you get better you will dread looking at their code again.
@@BusinessWolf1sorry, but this advice seems pretty bad "Move forward on [the dunning kruger curve] before you do anything else" how are they going to get further ahead with doing things? the most basic-level advice you can give anyone is to fail over and over again, right? shouldn't they make all of the bad, completely unintelligible code and architecture and use it as a learning experience for the future?
Not only do we get another cute looking time killing game, we also get some awesome new Dewdrop sneakpeeks, love it!
I love the style you use for every game!
I LOVE your art style it is SOOO CUTE!
This is absolutely adorable. Well done!
Could we get a tutorial/vlog video of you doing your designs? I've always loved this artstyle, that's what made me subscribe lol!
This!
this is literally the cutest game ive ever seen, and as someone that also loves js, this is an automatic sub
You should make a game in Microsoft Makecode Arcade next. Its default is blocks, but it is slightly different than Scratch's blocks. You can also change it to JavaScript or python if you want. It is good for retro style games like Dewdrop Dynasty. But it only has the amount of buttons a game boy has (hence the retro aspect) so it might be hard to work with. I love your videos! 😀
i made a huge game in that scratch and makecode are the beginner ones and i have become a pro at them so i have moved on to unity + visual studio 2022 and its going well
Absolutely amazing!
good job i am a fan and the remake dewdrop scratch
It’s always a good day when Goodgis makes a video
which tool are you using for creating those cute characters and background?
I once made an infinite top down space shooter in Javascript... But I made it using just plain javascript. It was so tedious building everything scratch that I decided to switch to Godot after that instead.
By any chance you happen to have a course on how to design sprites/pixel art with certain design principles or best practices? I've build a simple dino game but damn, your visuals really transformed it into something else.
You should create a signup list for it and see how many people would interested in the course, cuz I'm sure there'll be quite a demand for it. Would definitely sign up for a course just like that to up my design skills cuz it's ass hahah.
What engine / game maker did you use to make your dynasty game?
Hello Goodgis! Well done video, and may I know what font you use for this video?
I love kaboom. Favorite js game library.
JavaScript dev here. Love it for small projects, but you'll definitely go crazy at scale. Tests are a bandaid. TypeScript has a bigger development cost upfront, but type safety is worth it IMHO 😅
Wait so KABOOM doesn't work with typescript? It so then i'll be sad
@@kainaris It does work with TypeScript.
when you where designing the capybaras, do you mind telling me what softwear you used?
extremedly cute carpincho : 10/10
I'm using this editing style as inspiration now. This video is so good and yet insanely simple!
LET’S GO NEW GOODGIS UPLODE
I love kaboom! It's how I learned how to make basic games through replit's kaboomjs game jam. Good experiences :)
I've been working on the roadmap to make a game myself for the longest time. Have a few game engines in mind (Construct 3, Godot, GDevelop, Scratch) There's also Node... ugh so many. lol
This game is so adorable!
what do you use for making sprites,art,background
Have you figured out what he uses?
what fonts do you use in your game thumbnails
Which software to make animation in the game ?
Cute game
I must say I wish you would go over the JavaScript part of it more. In the end, it was a just a video about making simple cute game, and nothing more
There's nothing wrong with it, and it was cool to watch, but since the premise was about making a game in JavaScript, I was hoping to see what differences there were between the organization/problems & solutions/e.c. there would be between a JavaScript game with any other one
Maybe it was all just about promoting Brilliant? Idk
Besides that, it was a chill video
i freaking love you man
What font is that? It looks amazing
Great video! What software do you use to create the SVGs?
Maybe I guess he use “Affinity designer”
Yep @@RittoRitto
4:24 What font do you use for that big title?
cuuute, how did you make the animation ?
Simply amazing
I'm gonna pre-order DD when available
what affinty brushes you use?
Excalibur js is one of the best js frameworks out there.
Easy to export games?
what font did you use in the video thumb?
Something about ur style is just perfect 😢
Noice video GOODG’Z , finna make my own capybara game now lol
Yes! Do it! :D
What program do you use for drawing.
I wish he made longer videos.
Hey! Did you use mario galaxy music? I’m pretty sure I hear that…. LOVE it!
YES! See? There is a reason to love JavaScript
can we have the game to play
I just made a video on JavaScript in GDevelop, so I got really excited about the video, but sadly it wasn't.
Still an awesome video as always though. 😉👍
I thought about it actually but it's too much of an game engine for this coding series. Maybe next time? ;)
@@Goodgis That extra bit of challenge, not using a traditional game engine, definitely spices up the videos. 😉
Where do we play Hoppibara? I love this btw ❤ :)
0:28 new gameplay. Lets go Halloween treat
what font do you use in your thumbnails?
whats your vscode theme?
what program u use to make the capybara?
You should’ve added a special feature where if you go past an orange box theres a warning telling you to resist the oranges and if you die on an orange box on the you died menu it should say how you fell for temptation.
Always a good day when Goodgis uploads 👍
:D
Your the best i also love cozy style games! mind making a tutorial?
on affinity, use ctrl-j when copying
what's the drawing thing you used
yooo a new Goodgis video!!!!
Finally! Am I right?
Kaboom isnt that obscure, in fact it is one of my top 5 goto frameworks
I love games where you can fast fall to cancel your fall and spin the arrow keys
I have kind of a friendgroup thingy in discord with the main theme being explosions and I'm a programmer and I want to make games and I make websites and I thought about making a game with typescript aND THEN I FIND THIS VIDEO IT CANNOT BE MORE PERFECT
pls tell me the art app that you are using.
Anyway the video is so very good
Affinity Designer :D
what app do you use to draw ?
4:44 aaaaand with that sentence you made like, half of programing community your enemy.
where can I play this
J'aime beaucoup ton jeu mais je voudrais juste faire une petite critique, en fait quand on saute les obstacles sont trop prévisible (même distance) donc quand on trouves le rythme c'est trop facile(
je dis ça mais je me suis arrêter à 40 x))
en tout cas merci tes vidéos me donnent envie d'essayer de me mettre à la programmation dans le cadre de mes études d'Arts
Anyone have an idea how I should get started? I am studying javascript at the moment, but nothing for games, only web design. I want to create games like this, but I want to start off on a very low level, I have done simple projects like rock paper scissor. How should I do to progress from here?
Where I can find this beautiful soundtrack? capybara is top!
Greate video !! Will you release the game ?
Goodgis planned on it, but had trouble getting it to work.
GOODGIS MOMENT!
;)
Huge Goodgis moment
i know you mad ethis 4 months ago but how do i get the desktop version of kaboom.
What drawing tool do you use?
He actually says the tools name just super unclearly: "Affinity Designer"
What tool can I use to design sprites?
when new dewdrop devlog?
Soon :D
Big W for using Affinity over Adobe
You should try Lua next, it's very easy.
I think that JavaScripts it's not extremely easy, but you're extremely skillfull and talented, fr
This os game is so cute. Great Job!
Thanks so much! :D
I LOVE CAPYBARA
Does anyone know what app he uses for the designs? It has really inspired me :D
Hvae you figured out what it is?
@@humanracecar affinity designer
This guy is the opposite of BadGameDev. Funnily enough their names describe them well
I would die for Harold.
XD HE SAID JAVASCRIPT IS GOOD
I'M DYEING FROM LAUGHTER!
It is tho.
@@jarayablack3619 nah, bro naive and innocent, lmao xd!
@@that_guy1211 explain what do you mean then
@@jarayablack3619 javascript is one of the WORST programming languages like, ever
Interesting topic!
what is the software u use to draw shi?
Love your content :)
I appreciate that!
@@Goodgis Dude you're a huge inspiration to me and have no idea how much this comment improved my day 🥰
I just like the artwork, dude!!! Its amazing
How long did it take you to make this game?
3:19 omg no way...capivara backflip
;)
