- After announcing that I was probably not going to work on my indie game anymore, I read through a lot of your comments that eventually convinced me not to cancel my indie game. I already made a community post about this before, but I'm pretty sure most people haven't seen that, so today I'm just going to be showcasing the game so far, talking about future plans with the channel, and doing some Q&A.

I love the idea of mixing Mario Kart-like powerups with a platformer
Same
Speedrunners has basically the same concept, except it's 2D. I recommend checking it out.
Same boi
Same, and it would be very epic imo
F A L L K A R T
Also Cody sorry if all this support is overwhelming, we don't want you to rush it or anything. We just want to watch what you do, and be along for the ride. At least I do😂
For sure
yah
Yes
Same with me
Same my friend
Why don’t you add a name for the character, so when you make a single player platformer, the character feels more like a mascot, then a template. I would suggest something simple, like “Poly”. Also I have a few ideas for stages and costumes.
Stages: Pirate Stage, Space Stage, Farm Stage, House Stage where everyone is tiny and has to get across the giant furniture, City Stage, Medieval Stage, Winter Stage.
Costumes: Pirate, Astronaut, Farmer, Business man, Knight, Santa, Construction Worker, Princess.
Anyways, those are all of my ideas.
Yes, I got some more
Big brain goes fantasy!
Sorry sometimes i dont even understand myself🤣
Pory sounds better.
Oh and also more stages: Volcano Stage,Sky Stage,Forest Stage,Sewer Stage,Beach Stage,Cave Stage and Storm Stage. As for costumes, i got nothin :/
@@firey55alt92 Wow, great ideas!
I think names like:
Polyrun/Polyrunners
Polyrace/Polyracers
Could be pretty cool.
yes it could be cool
i also have a name to make for the game
Poly
Polyrush
Really cool to see that the game is uncancelled! Also, congrats on the huge channel growth lately!
Where new ball devlog
It was obvious that someone was going to ask for the 2nd devlog
Hello mr legion I wish u luck on your next devlog I understand things take time no rush my mans!
omg why did people immediately ask 4 a devlog, i hope for it but take your time man, no pressure
Thanks man, it's kinda like when your channel blew up a while back lol
God bless the CZcams algorithm for suggesting the first one of these vids to so many people so we could support and convince Cody to continue this game🥰
This game deserves more support, same with Dani’s game, they are both great games that I hope end up seeing the light of day.
Same
this is the only stream I've ever fully watched and enjoyed that's not live
Same
Probably cause it's short, but still it was a great stream
I am thankful that you continue making this game. In the way if it wasn't for you, Dani, and many other game developers on CZcams I some ways I wouldn't be as aspired to start Unity. I remember watching your first video on your game and I thought it was really COOL! and for forgot what people say about your game saying it's a Fall Guys clone. I know you had no idea fall guys would being developed by the time you were making your game. Even though I been using Unity for around 3 month but I just wanted to say Thank you for you and all the others game developers on CZcams. Can't wait to play your game when it comes out! :)
Looooooooooongggggggg
"I'm not really a creative person" *creates a videogame from scratch*
Lol but it's true
@@CodyCantEatThis Please kindly make this game playable in my POTATO PC !! Make it playable in 2 Gb RAM, and no graphics card required, and also playable in Windows 7 !!!!
@ umm, you just need a better PC mate. Unity games still run on Windows 7, but only on the 64-bit version. You probably have 32-bit Windows. Also, at bare minimum you need 4gb of RAM to do basically anything now. 2gb of RAM was good in 2004. Finally, pretty much any game like this will require some kind of graphics card made within the last decade. Lowering the game quality settings will only get you so far.
@@GraySlicerAnimations Can you gift me a usable PC like you said, I don't have money to buy a better PC or upgrade this one I'm using
!!!!
@ it's probably gonna be a while before this game releases. Get a better pc by then or just dont't play the game.
Thank you for not giving up!! I honestly never even thought of it as a Fall Guys clone. I see them as two different games with many great ideas, I hope you the best of luck.
hec
it kinda gives me a "fun switch game you play with the boys and dont fight over" vibe, and fall guys gives me a *"I MUST DESTROY ALL WHO OPPOSE ME"* vibe. You know what i mean?
@@russiancheems2275 brub this game gives me Mario vibes
@@xdwaveyxd3348 yea ik thats what im saying
Same
I'd recommend using an exponential function with a y-axis limit on the characters walk speed vector and running animation play speed. That will give it a slow acceleration and high top speed making is not look so stiff! :D I recommend using this for every platforming character you make :) Either way, keep at it Cody! We're all here for the journey!
Amazing that you decided to continue this, thank you so much!
Trying to help with some ideas ;)
Character names: Polyguy and Polygirl.
Maybe you can add a slide bar under each character, so people can decide their own color. (Unless you want these 4 for commercial purposes)
Maybe some items with range, maybe that ball, kinda like a shell in Mariokart: They search their opponent and lock-on, bouncing their way to them.
With these items you might wanna make some arena's and have some sort of battle option, similar to balloon battle.
Some power ups have icons like shoes, but you wanna make your characters customisable. I suggest keeping the items clothe free, so instead of shoes with wings, give actual wings. Shoes with rockets, just give a rocket. Keep it simple.
Not a serious request, but what do you think of this name?
Power Poly Death Race
It kinda has a ring to it eh?
Anyway, that is more then enough ideas and a lot of text to read for you.
Thank you so much for making these amazing video's and especially thank you for continuing this game, I'm gonna sub ;)
Your hard work and time you put into your projects as well as your CZcams video's are really appreciated.
Thanks a lot and good luck on this journey ;)
Ps: That public face mask idea is amazing. Instantly thought of a Rorschach of synthetic kinda mask, maybe Venom? Idunno, but great idea.
Byebye~
This looks so polished why cant you release a demo version of this
There's no audio at all, it would be pretty boring lol
@@CodyCantEatThis no IT wuld not
I dont care I can make up my own audio for it and it would be just as fun
And here's a suggestion why not use the song from the cartoon network game super slime blitz
CodyCantEatThis lemme compose some music
THIS IS AWESOME TO SEE!
I'm so glad to see that the comments have encouraged you enough to decide you do want to keep working on this project. This game is gonna be great.
I really like the concept of this game and the gameplay looks really fun! I'm also working on my first game which is a basic 3d platformer. I also love the low poly art style.
I love you art style man, glad to see it’s still running!
rocket boots should be a straight boost, but if you hit someone it'll knock them far away. Mixing powerups tends to make the 2 items that are mixed irrelevant unless the mix has its own weaknesses.
additionally, i can see people using that as a midair dash for clutch wins
LET’S GOOOOOOOOO, I was sad when he said it would be discontinued so this is epic for me. Thanks for 78 likes

I'm soo hyped for this game! Also awesome music choice for the stream lol.
Absolutely phenomenal work, can wait until the release.
This actually looks really good! I will try to watch some of your streams if you are going to stream more.
thanks for not deleting the idea, a lot of us were exited for it and you are a great programmer!
I love your game so far and I'm definitely going to buy it when it's out! You deserve more subscribes
Hey Cody,
Just wanted to say I'm glad you decided to keep working on your game. Not just because we the community want you to, but because you want to follow through on something you committed over a YEAR to. Your game seems like a whole new genre of party games. It's like an obstacle course version of Mario Kart, or like multiplayer Crash Bandicoot, or a competitive Mario platformer. But that's besides the point. People will always try to compare video games to find a sense of similarity. Like how people said Cuphead had the difficulty of Dark Souls, they're completely different games. Love the content and keep up the great work. Can't wait to play this thing when it's released. Congrats on making it over the hurdle.
fun tip: maybe a loading screen would be nice, maybe it could tell you a tip like, "power-ups can help you in racing"
Hopefully he adds “remember to breathe!” Because that would be funny
Tip: look at screen to see ur location in the race
Loading screens are only needed if things need to be loaded.
@@walrus2515 r/whoooosh
@@walrus2515 well, if he’s going to make a indie game like that, he will need more stuff, and the more stuff he adds, the more will be needed to load
im proud that you didn't give up and trying best to ignore haters. I hope the best for your game.
I love your channel and the other vids on this game. Glad to see it back in action! If it costs money when it comes out I will buy it, if not, I will download. SO EXCITED.
I'm so happy for you, you are at 200k you are growing really fast. I've been folloeing you since 7k subs so I'm really happy to see you grow keep it up
I am super glad you decided to work on it again! The game looks really fun!
im afraid if u want people to help you your gonna have to switch to dark theme coz no devs will work with a member of the light side
I used to have dark theme but my Unity pro trial ended so I was kicked back into a light theme. I know I can get it back if I update Unity to a new version, but idk how that will affect the game files
It’s fine with me but I have zero unity skills
@@CodyCantEatThis it shouldn't be a problem, if ur upgrading from an LTS, also, if u have it backed up there's no problem. I strongly recommend you setup github even if u don't plan on upgrading
@@CodyCantEatThis Dark Theme is now free
That horn power up that you said would be similar to the one in mario kart, I think it would be cool if your character makes some sort of noise that causes that push back effect causing the players around you to ultimately slow down/get knocked back. and then once the time runs out, your character throws it back and causes a small explosion. stuff like this is pretty exciting, glad to see you're continuing it.
Im glad you continued this game! I was really intrigued by the concept of the game.
Thanks for streaming. I enjoyed it. The UI and systems look well-implemented. My games are usually the opposite: meager code with a bigger focus on level design and art. For the other game you mentioned, the singleplayer one, was that idea just something you thought of after canceling your game? or do you think you'll follow through with it?
I thought of both games pretty much at the same time, but I wanted to make the multiplayer game first. After I thought I was going to cancel it I feel back on the other idea, but it looks like I won't have to for now.
I can't believe you decided to give up on this masterpiece if I made a high quality game like this id never give up lol.
Did you not read the title it says you guys convinced me to not Cancel my game So that means it's not canceled anymore
@@_.thealtbutton._3483 Buddy did you not watch his other videos. He cancelled the project in a earlier vid. I know he decide to now resume the project but I was saying the fact that he actually even cancelled the project in the first place was stupid since it was a masterpiece. Come on man, 27 other people understood this but not even you. Thats dissapointing!
@@tobin7673 whi so ofensive
Just found your Channel today and watched all the vids. Love the content.
I just found ur channel, and to be honest, I'm pretty impressed by it. Kind of reminds me when I first found Dani on CZcams. Anyways, I hope u don't cancel this project. The concept sounds pretty fun. As I love 3D platformer, I think competing with each other is always what I wanted. The movement looks pretty solid, it may need some adjustments and more movement options, but from what I currently see is already better than a lot of games. I think the focus should be on level designs, and also item designs. I know it is just a demo level, but the last part where u have to wait for one of the two moving platforms to come is kind of slowing down the game's pace. When designing a new level this maybe a consideration. Also, the items look fun and all but I think it could deep deeper. Stats change can make differences, but for example the wing boots u said didn't sound quite exciting for players. True it might be a good item but items like shock waves seems more of a game changer. Anyways, I see the potential of the game. Looking forward to your development!
Good job on programming your game on your own most people need a team!!
A name could be “Colour Cup” (Color Cup) because its colourful and you race for the winning cup! (Love from Australia)
Twitch dev streams would be something I would totally watch. Hope you're doing okay and I can't wait to see the future!
I really hope the development of this will be something similar to vibrant venture where you explain the details of the each part you make.
Keep It Up 👍👍👍 It was Nice stream😁😁
Your stream was really relaxing and enjoyable. Keep it up!
This is so inspiring! I don't know how you could do this so quickly
Happy you didn't cancel your game also I just subbed to support yeah. Any time something is hard in development or in general don't give up just take a break and return back. I'm trying to be an Indie dev my self I have messed up a lot and I kind of regret canceling my games well anyways I can just remake them in the future. Your game looks dope!
I JUST MISSED IT WAUGHHHHH
i cant believe i diddnt get notified
very happy you've kept going with the idea, I mean I liked your other one too (from the post I think), but this is looking great!!
Congrats for 200K!!!
The people who disliked are the people who still think this is a Fall Guys rip-off. OOF
Yep
it looks a lot like fall guys, which makes it look cool. Not a rip-off, more like inspired.
@@codertommy6883 it came out before fall guys
OK

-ps this took a Half hour
i really like all your proyects!, keep going please
cody its soo nice tht you decided to coninue this game i know how hard it is to code a game no rush in finishing it is stressfull and hard to make a solo indie game by yourself take breaks if you need to no rush in finishing you are so good at making games please just take breaks when you need them and DONT RUSH THE GAME i kno i have said tht like 5 times now your cannel is AWSOME BY THE WAY
(your channel is better than Dani s channel)
and here I was thinking he was making a 2D game into 3D, while also concluding the Portal and Half-Life series.
If you're considering releasing this game on consoles at some point, I've heard that the ID@Xbox program can be very helpful.
Nice to see you working on the game again!!
Looking forward to playing it!
Follow your dreams and continue making the games you want. It's not because it has similar graphics and conceps that it is a rip-off. I would love to play this game when it'll come out, if it's free.
Will it be released on Switch
13:20, nice little Dani reference there Mr. Louis Does Everything
This is fun to watch the progress 😂
On what platforms are you planning to release it ( I play on Nintendo switch)
On Steam for PC
@@noobdev6629 ok thanks
Your game inspired me to create a multiplayer game called "BOXER SHORTS"! Thanks a lot Cody!
Where can I find out more about “Boxer Shorts” sounds kinda cool!
@@SavageJarJar You can go to my 2nd channel, "Suspense_Comix Games", or join my discord
@@suspense_comix3237 Would you be able to send a link to the discord?
please continue working on this it seems really cool
What if the wing boots let you walk a few steps in air like in Ocarina of time? Making it possible to access slight shortcuts. That could differentiate it from the rocket boots
Also the rocket could work similar to Tank Trouble 2 where it follows the nearest person, so you could throw it off to someone else.
This looks really dope man, good stuff
nice you have skills
$15 seems cheap for this game, looks really fun, probably gonna get it when it comes out
I think 30 bucks would be good
@@redblastanimations 30k- jk jk but 5 would fit , we dont wanna pay with our parent’s wallet.
Yeah but what's the game called
Really good dude keep on going!
I love your vids keep up the great work man
Honestly instead of have the standard kart game “continue to race” thing, having the characters fly off like that is great, especially if you add like somekinda flailing animation.
Edit: also have the reset thing bring up a yes or not vote for all players to avoid some salty bastard restarting mid race.
I have a good name for the game “Poly Race!”
Polytrons
@@joshuastoaac9572 Robots in disguise
I am so sincerely glad you're continuing to work on it! Both because I
genuinely want to play the hell out of this game and because i hate seeing someone disheartened from something they clearly were passionate about!
Your channel has grown so fast! I rember when you only had 90k like two months ago
I don't even know this guy and I'm early? Whatttt
are you planning on doing coding streams?
third
@@procrastinatingcartoonstm5130 What do you mean?
@@vakqdev You were the third to comment
@@procrastinatingcartoonstm5130 Oh nice, I didn't know that!
PHEW! I was really looking forward!
You're doing great with streaming, don't worry that you aren't perfect, it was your first stream after all :)
you should make tutorials for unity
Yeah it would help me not waste over an hour of my life trying to place a single line of text in an empty 2D project
*Streamed 31 seconds ago*
:(
its fine me too 🥲
Really cool that you did not cancel. I was pretty excited. I was planning to buy a controller for this game only.
So glad you decided to bring this back! And also, cool for you that you sort of got over your social anxiety and streamed.
Edit: and you could call it polydash
Pls i beg of you put this game for free im a kid so no credit card
I think fall guys is copying your game
Dude fall guys came first and he had the same idea
No he had the idea a year before and uploaded a video and then fall guys came out. The video came out before fall guys was announced
@@StikbotHenryhe didn’t even know fall guys was a thing
Awesome work man. Just wanted to say, you do amazing stuff!
I just watched the video about it being cancelled and I was sad but then I saw this and now I’m very exited
I think a little toy dino with a little wind up thingy on the back would be a really cute costume if you decide to stay with the toy designs on the levels.
Yay! Im so excited!
I'm glad this game is still in development there's so mutch potential a talented dev like you could with this simple game consept(oh also I love the statistics menu art)
I have an idea for the toy block level! Maybe if people dive at the little platforms, they can have physics and fall over. That could be really cool to mess up other players. Really cool game!
A little idea is that the dodgeball should bounce a few time before it goes away
hey, could you at some point in the far future, make that single player game you were talking about? It doesn’t have to be for a couple years, but I would definitely try it out. You have insane skills! Can’t wait to see what you do.
I sure you can do this man!!!! God will bless you if you keep going!
I'm going back and watching this again. In hopes of experiencing the sheer joy I felt the last time😂❤
I like the leaderboard idea and the shop it has something to work for
Thanks to you Cody I continued my game development and I had the idea to continue
Power-up idea: a gun that lasts for a little bit. It fires mini heat seeking rockets that follow players for 2 seconds then stop seeking. If a player gets hit by these (if you implement a health system) deals half a heart. If you don’t plan on implementing health then it stuns the player that got hit by it.
