How to Make a Simple State Machine in Godot 3.1 Game Endeavor 2019-05-03 | Howdy! If you've ever tried adding cool features to your player character, but quickly found that the code became confusing and riddled with bugs, then this video is for you. We're going to be taking a look at my most tried and true method for creating state machines. State machines will limit the scope of your code based on the condition it is in. This allows us to create things such as a more advanced character controller, as well as start dabbling in the basics of enemy ai, which we will be covering very soon!For a better look at why state machines are so useful, check out this link that explains why we need state machines: http://gameprogrammingpatterns.com/state.htmlInterested in the clip of Transmogrified that I showed? It's a puzzle platformer where you transform the enemies into puzzle elements that you need to progress.

I HATED My Game, So I Remade It | Nightmare Game Devlog 1 Game Endeavor 2022-10-21 | A year and a half ago I released the demo for a game that was very sentimental to me. Normally you would expect this to be a joyful moment, but I HATED it so much. It was under developed, unpolished, and just wasn't ready.

New Skills Dont Need to be Boring! | Devlog Game Endeavor 2021-10-20 | It's not enough to add abilities to a game and call it done. If an ability only does one thing then you've only created a key.

Improve Your Game Feel With Coyote Time and Jump Buffering Game Endeavor 2020-03-14 | Making your game feel fair and responsive is absolutely critical. Interestingly enough this means that you will need to make your game unfair, but in favor of your player. Coyote Time and Jump Buffering are commonly used tricks in platformer games to make the whole platforming aspect (admittedly a pretty important aspect of the game) feel a lot better. Coyote Time is a brief period of time after a player walks over a ledge that they are still able to jump (and in this video even defy gravity), and Jump Buffering is a brief period of time (starting to notice a pattern yet?) where the player presses the jump button but they're not grounded, we remember that they pressed the jump button, and cause them to jump.Become a patron to get exclusive content and support the channel: patreon.com/GameEndeavor Join Our Community!

How to Make Your Player Swim in Godot 3.1 Game Endeavor 2019-12-28 | Getting your player character to swim is an interesting challenge to tackle as a developer. There are countless ways to implement it, each with their own pros and cons. In this video, I'll be showing you one way to implement swimming in your game. This style of swimming will cause the player to float upwards towards the surface of the water, and then tread water when near the surface, and allow them to jump out of the water. You can modify this however you like. An alternative style would be like Super Mario World where your character always floats down, but the jump button causes your character to float upwards.
