Don't use unity if you are not good at programming . Don't quit unity if you have to start all-over again.
Does the course include everything about Unity like how to use C# and how to make 3d games?
Refreshing to see honesty from a Game Dev content creator about what they "don't know".
You gotta commit to an idea man, going first from Father to Twisted Tower, and then further bouncing around between Bioshock and crazy procedural generation and Fairy Tales and Steampunk and game show and on and on, this game just has.. So little identity.
It is his first attempt at doing something in the genre and his first 3D game.
Some of the shown scenes look dope though and he can likely market his way out of a sub par product
Man this is just cool man. Knowing how you started to this game now, and it being your first 3D game is just insane to me. This right here you, your game it's just plain out inspiring.
Wow, that transformation was insane! Really love the colors and art direction. Amazing work!
Please keep doing these I love dev logs.
Love these devlogs! Great video :)
The devlogs and lives are really cool to follow while doing game dev :)
FYI if it’s too high poly you can use some remeshing features in blender to reduce the poly count. Dissolve edges. Decimation modifier. The new blender 4.0 quad remesh tool. Things like that to help optimize.
damn, i like this kinds of video, it just shows how it really is to be a dev, just sliding through some parts and wanting to throw the PC out the window in others, all while talking to the chat or yourself, which really is what i do a lot, thanks for the videos you make!
What a phenomenal channel! Love the editing style, and the game looks fantastic! 👍
This is super sick and it’s nice to see the project structure as well, I might recommend (for optimization and improving performance) to put your prop or environment textures that use the same shader into an atlas, it’ll also help with color grading since you can edit them together, like if u have several 512 textures you can put them
Into
A 2048 texture and adjust the uvs of the mesh to match in blender
Awesome video! This was really interesting to see. AMAZING work!
game looks awesome, its refreshing seeing passionate indie studios make genuinely good games
The shift turned out really well, and helps to distinguish a personality apart from bioshock! The fantasy-ish theme is great, excited to see where this goes :)
Awesome Devlog,Thank you:)
I love seeing all the progress. Ill have to pick your brain about that mixed lighting stuff haha!
So much Viz Dev accomplished in a week! It's also nice to know big creators have issues with lighting too 😅
That debate was amazing xD
Cool project and good devlog 👍 Looks very promising 🙂
Great video, thanks
The new environment has much more personality. Congrats!
Man this is soo relatable and yet sooo inspiring for a solo dev like me who is working all alone on an open world game...
Thank you Thomas, all the best with the Twisted Tower. I will be getting it on Day 1 !!
Good luck with your game man :)
Thank you friend @@seamus6447 💜
Love this style of video. ++ game is looking sweet.
love your work
Day 2 was a good stream day
I think your shotgun could hardly look more cartoony, you had great job made at it.
Thomas is literally me when it comes to focus and distractions.
Good video as always
I mean we game developers are essentially just artists and it's funny to see the thought process behind it. By the way love the dev logs I have a great time watching, the game is looking great.
Amazing
Amazing video 💖you never fail to inspire and entertain
Just started working on my game for itch should be done with in the month
2:25 - That was the worst apologetic for the existence of God I've ever heard. We are all now dumber having heard this. At no point in your incoherent ... Kidding, but don't worry, you didn't shake my faith! Also, great update!
Watch it…
I wish more people would take care of good gore and blood (yeah that sounds kinda wrong). You hack and slash and slay but everything around you looks cleaner than before you started hacking and slashing!
Adding a bathrub to Twisted Tower might change the genre just a tad....
Thomas Brush attempts to please the elder gods.
Would you consider moving to Unreal after this game release? Seems like a great option for a team that has as strong of an artistic vision. But struggles with lighting or optimization.
I feel this pain
I like to think you're just always drinking a gallon of chocolate milk
Waiting for the update where Thomas gets burned out and deletes the entire thing
lighting is by far the biggest reason i decided to go with unreal instead of unity 🤣
Would love to know your average working hours per day and what your days look like
Hey Thomas, on your last stream I asked how old do I have to be to release a game on steam and I guess you didn’t see it. I’ve read through the SDA multiple times and it doesn’t talk about age. What do I do?
You only need a company to release a game on steam.
So it depends how old you need to be in your country to make a company.
it's the half gallon of milk for me
You paid $16 usd for a fire extinguisher? its a cylinder... The hardest part is the nozzle which is also pretty simple relatively speaking. Is that not like one whole sales worth of the game when released? Jesus
Time is money. If you don't know modeling, even the simplest model for you could take a beginner hours to complete. He chose that his time was worth more than the money. Pretty simple concept many people don't understand. TIME IS MONEY. And how many games have you finished?
man this game was perfect for unreal engine, hope you may consider switching engine for this kind of games
He really shouldn't have used unity for this type of low poly game without some research. I think he said he thought it would be easy when he first started then he got slammed with optimization problems. Learning a new engine though is never a good way to go if you're doing something full time. It really is time consuming (c# to c+( and blueprints
Epic content once again. Good on you for remaining true to your convictions and beliefs. It sure ain't easy nowadays. I really need to do a proper game developer course, but I'm an Unreal Engine 5 user, otherwise I may have signed up. Love your content and delivery style. Thanks for keeping it real. I'm a big horror fan and sometimes struggle with what I want to create or watch. In the end, evil is a real force and it's up to us to fight the good fight. It's a fine line we walk. So refreshing seeing a fellow believer on CZcams. We need more. Cory Kenshin is another. You are right by the way. Everything has a purpose. Our Creator makes no mistakes. Hope this game is a success. You deserve it after many years of persevering and hard work. God Bless.
W Thomas Brush.
Will there be port of a game for a mac when it comes out?
Man I hate lighting as well because I never seem to get a grasp on it. @thomasbrush Would you consider sharing the points you learned in those calls in a video? You know, the things from those calls that really made lghting "click" for you? I think it might help a lot of people (myself included)!
Imagine to bake light in to the map #unrealgang
you need a left hand
If Willy Wonka was a Scientologist.
I Want to be a programmer like u
Quite funny seeing someone who has made two very successful and popular games not knowing about Baked lighting.
Believe me…. Not sure how I got here
better than CS2 :D
Man you suck for making me wait for 2024 goty!
Yeah, I feel ya. Just because the world is painful doesn't mean God wanted it to be.
Jacksepticeye and 8-Bit Ryan are gonna love this game! I m telling you
I just dont see the fairy tale mood on this clip
I am honestly baffled at how you released multiple games without ever stumbling across the topic of baked and realtime lighting. By not covering the topic in your courses you also skip over any games directed at low end devices, and lose out on a lot of optimization.
2d games carry the day and he never really needed lighting skills for them.
@@thelaw3536 he's not qualified to teach people
I believe in god, but i don't believe in religion. God Created the universe to work as it does, and anyone who tries to force order onto the world is lying. Hence why I don't believe in religion, it is an opposite to the chaos of gods universe, and brings unwarranted judgements and control onto humanity which those who are in control benefit from, one of the great flaws of the universe. These indie videos are amazing especially in helping understand the life of a developer, glad to see someone in that space not afraid to express their beliefs. you're absolutely right, just because life is painful does not meant that he didn't mean it to be. God bless you sir.
@thomasbrush YHWH - This is God - YAHWEH :) Keep it up good sir! Remember, when you breathe, you are saying his name Yah - Weh :)
finally i found a great youtuber who is a Christian.
Yeah, I feel ya. I don't like it when some of these Christian CZcamsrs be clickbaiting.
Unity looks so ugly and outdated man.. ^^
Sound like you never touched Unity at all. Unreal asset flippers act like they know anything about Game Development lol
@@Mosopia worked 2 years on unity, was a die hard fan just like you, would defend it always, then i experimented with unreal and never looked back, i dont know shit about game dev i dont even know how ive released games and even profited, its weird how everything works. and yes i LOVE assets, i fucking LOVE THEMMM, no hate bro i wish you all the best, in my opinion unity feels and looks clunky, the & ui is ugly af
@@Mosopia Because Unity doesn't have an asset store and Unity devs are all so above using premade assets? Seriously, even AAA companies with massive budgets and in-house game engines still purchase premade assets sometimes and expecting every Indy dev to be able to create their own game, models, textures, and sounds is a really high bar, especially for the solo devs.
The fact that you're so bold about your faith makes me like you the more. As a fellow Christian Dev it's really satisfying to have someone like you in the industry.
