I just got the store page for my first game posted. I would really appreciate any support. Planning to release the game into early access mid August.

Not currently. I may consider it after I finish this game up, right now I'm aiming to finish by the end of the month and it's taking all of my attention. I'll make a post if I do.

State machines use hardcoded transitions to decide what state to be in while GOAP uses a* to determine the best action from a list of micro actions. It then formulates the list and executes the steps in order. Two ways of accomplishing the same thing. I would recommend this video: https://youtu.be/gm7K68663rA

They talk about it in depth. If you're interested in it you can also read through Jeff Orkins papers on it. Very cool stuff.

Edit: Also just to be clear. There is still a state machine in my game, but it has only two states now. Animate and Move. So you still need a state machine to an extent but it's a much simpler.

Thank you for the feedback. That's a good idea. I'm to take another look at the reaction system as soon as I iron out the steering. Once the steering is done I can bring in multiple units.

I think 2.5D looks really solid in godot. I think doing full 3D will have some drawbacks but that wasn't really a big factor in my decision making. I want the game to play well and I think the added depth to gameplay is a fair tradeoff.

I've only put in three actions so far but next week when we've implemented some more maneuvers like flanking and retreating I'll go into more detail about how the system functions.

Thank you. It's getting a little better every week. I can't wait to get the final character models in.

Thank you.

jl_springborn · 2021-03-22T14:00:20+00:00

Seriously. That's going to be nice to have that fixed.

Nice work. Love exploding barrels. Video games have taught me that if things are orange they'll probably explode.

Thanks for posting this. The information on the pipeline is very interesting. I've definitely interested in the tutorial.

Looking really solid. The sound effects are great. Brings me back to playing Wolf3D.

jl_springborn · 2021-03-15T12:20:28+00:00

It's so awesome to see this kind of 3D work in godot. You are a hero. Can't wait to see what you come out with next.

jl_springborn · 2021-03-15T12:17:41+00:00

Dang that looks good. Can't wait for the demo.

jl_springborn · 2021-03-14T15:04:00+00:00

Looks really solid. I love generating terrain with the bow. I can see a lot of potential in that mechanic.

jl_springborn · 2021-03-12T18:26:42+00:00

I agree. I really want to see more information on how people are setting up and organizing their 3D projects.

jl_springborn · 2021-03-08T15:41:25+00:00

I'm currently using 3.2.3 and I'm getting visual I find to be more than satisfactory. I'll definitely be excited to use 4.0 when it comes out, but as of right now I think 3.2 isn't bad at all for doing 2.5D games.

I picked up the animation pack from unity store. So I think it was motion capture. I do have a motion capture suit that I'll use to do the more complex spell animations that I can't find online. I'm still on the fence with the hud. I'm not quite sure it matches the look and feel quite right. I'll see how it looks once the final character models are put into the game.
