I can only imagine how cool this is going to be when the character is walking around a real level
edit: I just tried the demo, and the character controller is soooo good
thanks you!!!!! So gald to hear that, made my day!

yes
i think keeping the scope smaller to not over stress yourself or cause the project to get entirely out of hand and abandoned like i’ve seen happen to many other developers is really smart, and you can always add more content once you have the base game finished !!
For the report... I was here when this game wasn't even released (right now). Your game looks so good and appears to have a lot of potential. Amazing work!
Haha, ill remember! And thanks a lot for the kind words!
Seeing the game evolve was so awesome, goobi looks amazing now!
Good luck on everything!
Whoa, a year already ?? Time flies! Excited to see how Goobi progresses in 2023 :D
ikr crazy its been a year, and thanks dude!
@@R1GBYdev I think it would be cool if the newspaper ammo could also serve as a currency of sorts (or convert to one), that way you are incentivized to waste as little newspaper as possible
Always happy to see a new devlog from Goobi. :D
Keep on the great work! :)
Yooo more Goobi!! It really makes my day seeing a new goobi upload. I have high hopes for this
The current design (and animation!) of Goobi looks fantastic; Reminds me very much of the kind of platformer character big game studios used to make.
Fun, charming and family friendly.
Hey R1GBY!!! The game looks really good and I just love the graphics. I have an idea that maybe make it even better! Maybe you can add new lower parts, like a wheel or like a spring, so you can make interesting combinations and puzzles. You can unlock them with screws (as a collectible) and buy them by a merchant. If u think this is a good idea please like this, so R1GBY can see it.
Can't wait to play the full game, controls and animation look so smooth!
Woah! This game looks really creative and interesting! Nice job! Time to see what happens next!
The willingness to seek out and iterate on feedback, the quality of the work, the awareness of scope/feature creep, even the freaking testing grounds - you come across as more professional than some AAA Dev teams I've worked with. Keep going this way and you're gonna have an excellent game by the end.
Thanks a ton for the kind words, I try to pride myself on transparency and being open to feedback.
Wow. Nice progress. Looking great.
I love this so much I love the character you made goobi lol!
Holy crap, this is just amazing. As a fellow solo game dev, this shit is so hard but you're such a great inspiration of just how much we as solo devs can do. Good luck with your game and I wish you the best ❤.
Thanks, and keep going!
I'm so happy to see how far you've come along with your project, and that you're committed to finishing it. Wishing you the best in the future R1GBY! Here's to an awesome 3D indie gem!
thank you so much for the kind words!
Good luck with the remainder of this project man! Super excited to see the final result once you get around to it! It's been awesome to see how far you've come this past year!
Thanks dude, ur the best!
dude this looks really cool! this is the first video of you that ive stumbled across, and i subscribed instantly! i really like those blue platforms that you have to shoot to deploy. i think if you land on them, they should jiggle a little bit. i think it would give them some extra life and a little visual feel! anyways thanks for reading this if you did, don't give up on this dope game!
edit: those little blue platforms just look like they would jiggle when you jump on them, just a tiny bit, so that's what made me think of this comment.
Yayyy!!!! You’re backkkk!!!! 🎉🎉
YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR A GOOBI DEVLOG
woah, i still can't believe i watched goobi devlogs for *_1 ENTIRE YEAR!_* i am a 1# fan of yo- wait everyone says that right? i am a *_BIG_* fan of you then, R1GBY!
This is looking awesome.
Really helping me to stay motivated on my game.
Keep it up man!! im currently studying animation so i can do my Dream game and this inspires me deeply! keep it up!!
Hello! This was the first ever vid I watched on your channel and I found your vid amazing! But have you thought of adding dogs as a side or main boss? Since your character is a mailman and dogs are known to schread up newspapers. So this could be a cool mini boss in the game. ( you can make it shred your newspaperlaunchers bullets letting you implement a New weapon. P.s keep going Def subbed!
There's a game called Tinykin (Sort of like Pikmin) and in that game the player can collect letters and post them in a mail box. Maybe you can make an "End Goal Colelctable" similar to Crash Bandicoot's Crystal system where if you collect a certain amount of Letters in the level, Gooby can post the letters into the mail box and send them away. And each letter can be used as a level up or unlock certain abiites etc to give the player an incentive to collecting letters around the map.
Yo, this is amazing!
I only watched the latest devlog again a few days ago! I remember watching all of them around the end of the year. Very great content.
I would say my favorite part of the game is the character animation amazing work keep going
Dude this is amazing! Keep up the great work!
All the improvements look fantastic, keep up the great work!
Man, I love this video. I've been learning Unity and Blender for the past couple months through courses, and when I started my own game prototype I was struggling with the character controller feeling like it was too basic not to know it but after watching all the effort you've put into a single feature I feel more encourage. I just got to say thanks.
Thanks! and yah just keep pushing forward and always try to improve as much as you can, keep it up!
Congrats my guy, this looks awesome
I have a question: do you plan on making the game's source code public? Like to mod it and stuff? Because the game is awesome (I tried the demo) and it's always awesome to see what the internet comes up with to tweak games to give them personal twists.
This is so awesome! So much personality
this makes me want to get into game development up even tho I'm never going to 💀
This looks amazing btw. all that progress definitely paid off 👍
Your game looks awesome!
I think it has a lot of potential!
Keep it up! 🥳
Great journey so far. Liked the video and looking forward to play the complete Game. Cheers
Dude those animations are really cool and smooth! Love it already
This game looks really cool also goobi is one of the best main characters design wise of any 3d platformer he's so fun to watch I can't wait to eventually play no matter how long it takes
Although it is too early to think about it, it would be cool for a boss to be a goat, why? Well, there's that fact that goats (for some reason) like to eat paper, so a goat swallowing letters wouldn't be a bad idea.
Scope management is the single most important thing in game development. And I'm not even kidding. Scope creep probably kills the most games, out of all the problems that could occur.
Wow you made that? Your game looks amazing I can’t wait to see more
Just played the Demo right after watching this, so far it looks and plays well.
Altough I couldn't shoot boxes right next to me (don't know if I had to have them in the middle of the screen or not).
Also I don't understand why every dev puts the default Graphics settings on max, I put them on low manually but it took a bit of time because it did lag a bit.
Overall, you're doing great! Keep on going.
thank you! yah that shooting bug is annoying, i fixed it, and i plan on putting out a patch hopefully this weekend with a lot of fixes!
Nice progress, will be following this :)
NO WAAAAAY
you"re back 🤩🤩🤩
Hi I’m new to your channel and I just subscribed cause I can see you put a lot of effort into your game and videos, keep up the work 👍
Nice progress in your game project!
looks awesome! can’t wait for the release!
Game looks great! Can't wait to play it when it comes out :)
I can't wait to see the level designs! I think there's a lot of you can do with the style & level sceneries!!
me too, im excited to show it off!
Awesome bro, good luck!
It looks great!
this is the first time ive seen goobi and i LOVE IT
This game looks sick, excited for more devlogs!
thanks so much! more coming soon!
This looks like it could be really cool and I hope it gets popular
This game looks amazing keep it up ❤
I saw a lot of solo dev 3D platformer make great movement and than die when creating actual levels (for example ZeroTag by Robert Thomson).
I think making good levels are the hardest part of making a platfromer. I wish you the best and rooting for you to be able to do it! :)
I love the concept of the game!
Love your vids ❤
This looks great so far! Love goobi’s design
i love. all the best man
Looks great!
that looks so nice!
This game looks amazing! goobi is a good and clean model and feels smooth with his movement.
I love this cute game. Please continue
Wow, this is amazing, keep making games!
I have a question, is it available on mobile devices?.
Very epic, new sub!
you've come so far with this game and it looks so good dude GOOBI GANG!!
Reminds me of that one playroom ps5 game!! Props to you!
I watched most of the video and didn't even realize you had only 7k subs, the video quality is great, hope you get famous
thanks! not really doing gamedev for the fame really, more or less just to document my journey about it and be transparent about game dev stuff :D
This game looks amazing, looks like a game that would work amazing on a Steam Deck
thanks! would be awesome to get it working on it!
underrated.
If goobi shoots newspapers.. you could change the hit effect to newspaper explosion particles. Also, consider having them return as isn't he supposed to be delivering them? Finally with a returning projectile mechanic, you could implement puzzles or challenges that make the player think about how to use a limited number of projectiles. All in all, looks good, best of luck.
🙂
W game, can't wait for the full realise!
You should make an Easter egg inside the game about the first Goobi model
Keep up the grind your doing great 👌👍 don't give up keep working at it 👍
Played the demo, it feels *fantastic* to play. Legitimately better controls than most AAA platformers. The dive mechanic feels great to use, and getting extra height from the spin mechanic is great. I love seamless integration of camera rails in some parts of the level, eg. collecting the stamps in the small nook in one of the walls, it feels very seamless. After I collected all of the stamps I found myself just running around the level for no reason at all just because the controls were so fun to use. Getting some tactile feedback with controller vibration was a nice touch, reminded me of Astros Playroom. Character animations tied into the movement mechanics perfectly. The change to the shooting mechanic was a great call, not having to aim means the shooting mechanic doesn't get in the way of the platforming, instead it complements it really well.
My main criticism is I think the hat gliding mechanic should either automatically start if you keep holding the jump button (perhaps only if there is some distance between the character and the floor, ie. only auto activate if jumping over a gap), or maybe mapped to a different button. Having to release and repress the B button to start gliding after jumping felt unintuitive and made timing jumps and glides awkward.
Overall really excellent, the gameplay has a great flow to it and the character controls are not clunky at all and very responsive. I look forward to what you do next. Adding some good levels with nice themes and aesthetic, I think you have what it takes to make a killer 3D platformer for sure.
thanks for the kind words! So yah the gliding has been a pretty common critique, i’ve fixed in the project to activate A LOT quicker, so it should feel a lot better. Hopefully i’ll have enough time to update the demo so you and others can give it another shot. And thanks for the support and feedback!
can wait to see the level design and the art for the environment
*Honest Thoughts:*
➤ It’s always impressive to see Indie Developers choosing to create a 3D Game. I’ll be honest, it’s definitely the definition of over-scope.
Your character is interesting as it shows a lot of character. I think the main focus should be the move set for your character. Different abilities, etc. I also think creating three worlds is a fair balance compromise.
Everything looks mostly great but there’s definitely a lot more work to be done. I feel that your character does borrow a lot from Super Mario. It’s not necessarily a bad thing. It’s just I really want this character to stand out. Think about the robot style. Why not have a Messaging Pigeon be the thing that respawns you?
Maybe if the robot touches a certain element. The robot glitches and shuts down temporarily causing the Player to take a breath to relax before continuing. Most games fail this and it’s so important to have an Idle feature as it allows a more balanced experience that can be challenging and calm.
These arew all great points, so I will plan on making goobi the most unique I possibly can. There will be more stuff that makes him stand out closer to when the game releases, so I will just need to to flesh everything out, thanks for the thought!
Tried the demo. It feels sooo good! Super excited for this game
This looks amazing, i love gooby goobing all over the place
THIS LOOKS SO COOL
I love this guy, lots of love
this looks so cool
Keep going! 💪🏻
goobi is adorable 🥹
that looks cool!
THAT IS AMAZING!!
from just watching this video i actually love the character lol
There's absolutely nothing wrong with a good short game. Goobi is a perfect mascot character, so if the game does well, you can always work on a sequel later when you're more comfortable. The creator of Hollow Knight didn't think the game would be popular; now, they have Silksong on the way. I've been keeping tabs on this since you started the project, and you're doing amazing sweetie. Great job!
EXACTLY, you got my plan pretty much, thanks for the support! hope you like it!
I would love to see you coming up with some new concept or improve something that already exist but well. the character sure got a lot of potential to waste with the main mechanic being "shooting"
That old Willy coyote (sheep rider) game and Bugs bunny + Taz have awesome elegant mechanics that make the games standing out even today, there are a great source inspiration.
Nice vid bro
3:23 - Its just The Pathless, my dude
Damm bro I just found your channel and how are you not big yet
the newspaper launcher just feels like a very standard issue gun (it's very common in such cutsie platformers for the gun to also be the tool that interacts with platforms and hurdles), there's no unique twist to it so far
Suggestion:
When gliding, currently the entire hat expands in size which i find distracting as it looks as if the character is sized down.
I would suggest keeping the base of the hat the same size and blowing the top part of the hat out like a hot air balloon. I believe that might be much easier to read and understand.
This is pretty cool
Can’t wait for this game
Please change Goobi's eyes back to blue, I liked them so much :(. I love everything about the design but the eyes. I hope your game turns out great!
