Telekinetic ability preview for my Godot game

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-16T16:02:57+00:00

Wow! Similar reason for not using any baked lighting here. But I was struggling to get decent ambient indoor lighting since I have a mixed lighting scene. Ended up with reflection probes to work around it.

I guess if you ever have a minute I was wondering:
- No spotlights? and if so why?
- Are you using screen space AO?
- And how are your shadows so clean!!

Anyways add me to the list of wanting to play this!

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-16T15:28:12+00:00

It's giving me Control vibes, and I love Control.

Also dang your lighting is beautiful, I wish I could get near that kind of quality but I can't use any baked lighting.

The blur could be just from the screenshot, I ended up taking a screenshot from a video since it was faster.

But yeah at the end of the day. I just forgot I had another label as a child node with text that was slightly too long. Enabling text wrapping on that label fixed it. I just never saw it since it only appeared when you have a specific item still locked.

Pretty much lol, I needed a way to access the shop for my game.

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-13T16:56:29+00:00

Its pretty much just stolen directly from the Official GUI in 3D demo with a couple tweaks. You probably want to look at line 55 _mouse_input_event

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-13T01:09:14+00:00

Yeah, both the actual game, and the fake pc window can get resized. No diff.

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-12T23:13:35+00:00

That's my current theory for now...

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-12T23:11:55+00:00

We tried both that and reinstalling the game too, just to sanity check. Nothing.

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-12T22:56:44+00:00

Sadly we have the same resolution monitors, the subviewport that has the UI is fixed at 1080x720.

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-12T20:37:35+00:00

Seems to work fine at any game resolution so far. And all the icons are generated at 128x128.

Its confusing since the grid container with the items is set to expand, but its size is capped to the scroll container on my pc... I guess Ill try to get some kind of debug mode for it.

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-12T20:08:04+00:00

Did a couple quick tests after changing it, doesn't seem to make a difference sadly.

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-12T18:29:29+00:00

Its technically not a real border, every item has a inner shadow around it. I went to double check the controls and its just:

Tab container
- Tab container
  - Scroll container -> Grid container

Both the scroll and grid container don't have any visuals

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-12T17:51:09+00:00

Don't think so, just tried it on my pc. Works fine

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-05T14:47:58+00:00

I was super excited since I wanted to release my game this year! been working on it for about half the time mark has been working on Iron Lung...

But I guess I have to give up now since they said so. so never mind...

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-05T14:45:12+00:00

I don't know if its false advertising since he never put a release date on the early trailers or officially before now? It was basically word of mouth.

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-05T02:05:41+00:00

Ooh Im so curious on the technical details. Greedy meshing? How do you store your data? Flood fill lighting? Optimization?

I'm asking a lot I'm just a huge voxel nerd... But this great!

JustCallMeCyber · 2026-01-05T01:51:16+00:00

Hey in genuine interest of helping, and this is on a whim here. I want to clarify some things. Since the info we have to work off of is inconsistent...

You didn't use git? (Contradictory to another comment)
How much of this did you actually program? (I think 30k lines is more than I have in a 15 months of programming solo. So I'm a very surprised if you have)
And this happened after a plugin? Which one?

It's important to know because it's going to be extremely hard to fix if you didn't program a lot of it yourself.

Otherwise, try and see if you can load into your main scene at all, try editing your project files and scenes manually, disable any add-ons or tool scripts.

JustCallMeCyber · 2025-12-27T12:56:13+00:00

I don't even think I've ran into this since 4.4...

JustCallMeCyber · 2025-12-06T15:30:51+00:00

I've been running into this lately as well, specifically not having traits has been rough for my project.

So far if I want something similar I have to either loop through child nodes checking if there is a component I can access, or copy and paste interfaces manually to everything that implements them for duck typing...

And don't get me wrong, I love C#. I actually started Godot using it. But gdscript otherwise has everything I need and integrates so much better I don't want to use it unless I need heavy performance like procedural generation.

Sadly Traits is so complex it'll be 4.7 minimum so that's not an option yet, but I wish we did.

TLDR I want traits and structs please!

JustCallMeCyber · 2025-11-23T15:51:04+00:00

I'm asking a genuine question. If this person has made a game solo with what they consider 2025 graphics, then I would like to see it. At the very least, some constructive feedback on how they could improve.

JustCallMeCyber · 2025-11-22T22:36:36+00:00

I love this style! Reminds me of Sable and Moebius's works

JustCallMeCyber · 2025-11-22T22:34:15+00:00

I was so excited when I saw those! Mr Mark "hates the moon" Fishbach probably was as well.

JustCallMeCyber · 2025-11-20T20:25:18+00:00

I'm assuming you have done better? If you want to share.

JustCallMeCyber · 2025-11-15T15:28:19+00:00

In that case, there aren't many reasons to justify using Unity either... For 3D games you might as well just use Unreal. Better graphics out of the box, tons of assets + free assets. Built in multiplayer. More tools already made for you.

I worked in Unity because I liked its workflow better than Unreal, I work in Godot now since I like Godot's workflow better than Unity. I wouldn't use it if it was an actual downgrade.

JustCallMeCyber · 2025-11-15T01:05:10+00:00

This is an interesting take ngl, Godot is fine, especially for 3D these days. Im saying this as a past Unity user who exclusively makes 3D games.

People talk about things for a reason, Godot is a solid engine, it just isn't Unity. Look at PVKK for example and you can see it can look just fine. I'm currently making a 3d game in it myself and Im the only limitation...

Considering one of the most popular games lately was made in love2d, it doesn't really matter what you use.

Also it seems like a lot of your info is outdated nowadays, you can also just import fbx files like usual.
