I Added Tools To My Game! • Gelli Fields Devlog

[@Fairlii]

Hi everyone I hope you enjoy the video

[@senor_McDuck]

We always do

[@clowndraco]

These videos are always so good

[@ReeeMonke]

Its always good :D

[@RatManSupreme]

I most certainly did!

[@Obrulis]

Really cool idea! I think there should be a timer above the tools after you use them and a sound effect that indicates when the cooldown is done.

[@nicotheidiot]

I agree,my adhd ass would forget about tools in a second

[@Fairlii]

Definitely! There isn’t that yet because it’s still not finished😵‍💫

[@XCrying_cloudsX]

Love how this game is coming along! Its getting better and better everytime :)

[@Fairlii]

Thank you❤️

[@Clara-bv9dr]

The game is looking amazing!!! I'm so pumped to play it some day!!

[@Fairlii]

Thank you❤️

[@SamiTheAnxiousBean]

that starting clip is...way too relatable to me

[@Fairlii]

It be like that

[@Sadmentores]

i 100% agree...

[@SamiTheAnxiousBean]

@@Fairlii The pain of game development xD

[@silashughesmusic]

I love that idea! If you added an indication for when the tool is over their assigned product (like a rock or tree) it would make it all way better :) Maybe something like a highlight, but idk :)

[@silashughesmusic]

I hope you see this :)

[@Fairlii]

Awesome idea!

[@Squeakybro]

I think that having the jelli use the tool that you select could add a lot of charm to the game.

[@wintkit]

Looks great! Love your content as always Fairlii

[@Fairlii]

Thank you (:

[@randomkittensYT]

this is one of the best games ive seen made thats not very popular!!!!! Keep up the great work!

[@Fairlii]

Thank you!

[@404Nexel]

First video I've watched by you, I love how to game looks and I'll be sure to join that livestream today!

[@Fairlii]

Thank you so much!

[@Squifigly]

Cool cooldown system! I think it would look really good if you made it so the tools go from red to normal slowly from top to bottom to show how much time is on the cooldown.

[@chatfulness03]

Hi!! New subscriber! Just found the first devlog earlier today and binged the whole playlist 😄I really love what you've got here so far- but I especially wanted to commend how fun your commentary is? The way you show off everything and divert our attention to show us the fun things going on in your life that aren't relevant is honestly really fun and engaging, and I'm really happy to stick around! Happy deving, and wishing good growth to your channel! 🌠

[@Fairlii]

Wow thank you so much! I’m glad that you’ve been enjoying the content that makes me so happy!

[@Jamzters]

Honestly I've been watching this devlog for a long time now and honestly gelli fields has made good progress. Btw can you add tips to the loading screen? It could really make it seem like an interesting game

[@lubiezolwie]

yayyy another devlog

[@Fairlii]

Yay

[@midle652]

It would be cool if tools had physics and u need to physically swing the tools to break stuff

[@capeling]

LETS GO EPIC VIDEO

[@danilosampaio1000]

I'm your fan since the candy biome, keep up the good work!

[@shnarglebluff]

This looks great! Definitely add more tools in the future

[@OgGhostJelly]

I think having a hotbar would be better than constantly moving back and forth to grab your tools, still very cool game looks great!

[@whaive]

It's an awesome concept! But I feel that sometimes a pretty long distance to have your mouse pressed and bring it to a tree, what If I wanted to do something else in the middle of the process that I forgot. Do I need to let down the axe, do the thing, go back and grab the axe and bring it ALL the way until the tree that I wanted to cut? I feel like having two kind of "inventory slots" to store those Items when they're grabbed from the tool boxes, would be handy! That way you could store the axe, wander arround, and cut the tree that you wanted! After that the axe will be back to the box in cooldown! It seems like a Quality of Life thing, but maybe it's just me that felt that, and in reality it's not a big deal transporting the axe to the tree, keep up the great work, the game is coming along nicely! :D

[@Fairlii]

Thank you for the comment! The game originally had inventory slots but they ended up being not that useful and just took up unnecessary space in the screen majority of the time. The biomes aren’t actually that big do you don’t need to move the screen very far as well, I think I’ve done a bad job describing how big the play area is haha

[@duckgamer67]

very cool game. you should add a cave.

[@cindythecatisawesome]

What does the shovel do in the thumbnail

[@firetdev]

yay new devlog!

[@rexycreates]

being able to start farms to breed things like Gellcows or Gellkins would be soo cool

[@LunarCruxOfficial]

You can make the trees fall when they are cut, like they fall off to one side, and then fade and give the materials, that would make the game more smother and clean than before

YAY NEW VIDEO :)))))

[@Fairlii]

Yay!

[@Jackchiking]

That game is looking really good

[@ethanbuttazzi2602]

or you could just, make the tools core mechanic never change but when you level up, a tool gained a tiny ability that carries over to other levels, such as, small chance to double resorces, increse the range of the tool so it gathers more at once, and later on for example it gives a chance to give another resource along with the one you mined, tiny things that progressively add up for a fun experience.

[@Fairlii]

That would be very hard to level, and with the player being able to reach high levels like level 50 it would be hard to balance a small reward every level/portray it to the player properly

[@ethanbuttazzi2602]

@@Fairlii maybe but theres also just so much you can decrease the cooldown before it becomes just zero, i also thinkm the player may find not rewarding enough just a cooldown discount, and hey if you have such high level in mind you could just spread these rewards further apart, and since its just small quality of life updates they wont feel as much, you also need to have in mind a max lvl, the levels they dont get the the small reward you can decrease cooldown.

[@tubemash3772]

We need a use for the sticks and rocks and leaves you get from foraging and using tools (except selling btw), also its nice that the tool sprites are similar looking. Maybe make the axe able to chop down fruit trees? It wouldnt give an item but it would also not use up the axe and start the cooldown (just for solving potential tree clutter)

[@Fairlii]

The fruit trees go away on their own after 2-3 harvests (: also the sticks and leaves will have uses for the biomes and also crafting

[@tubemash3772]

@@Fairlii aah, cool to see youve already thought of all of these things

[@AngelofD000M]

An alternative to the tier system could always be giving the tools levels as well, instead of basing it off of character level. So the more you use the tool, the higher level it'll be.

[@Fairlii]

I did think about that, but I didn’t want to add any extra complexity to the system or make people like they are forced to use a tool in order to increase its performance. I’m trying my hardest make the game as relaxing as possible so a system like that I could see causing some issues with some players

[@TheEeryTeacher]

what script language do you use in unity to code your games because i've been trying to start but i don't know what the best choice is?

[@Aleks14-k1j]

Cool Idea: The tool's colour changes when you level up, to show that it actually became better. White - Gold - Diamond - Purple Crystal??

[@Neonek1232]

i think that when the tool is on cooldown there should be a circle around it that slowly dissapears, like in forager when smelting stuff. also when you level up i think it should say it in the middle of the screen like "Level 2! -5s pickaxe cooldown -3s axe cooldown"

[@Kirro_YT]

4:50 I think you should make a UI of an inventory that contains 3 slots (for 3 tools) and then you can use it anywhere rather than return to the house to get the axe just to scroll over and use it.

[@jejaplay6622]

you could add a hammer what would work like a crafting table in a way that you put few items near each other and hit them With a hammer they would craft something like a decoracion

[@pocketbattlesar]

Very nice 2d style!

[@Fairlii]

Thanks!

[@SPEEDYDIM2]

Random thing do you use visual scripting and if you do use it do you recommend it?

[@Fairlii]

I have used Construct for visual scripting and it was great for being a beginner and I’m sure you can make awesome stuff using it

[@desmondwhy]

I love the art style of the game, but it might just be me but it’s kinda of hurting my eyes. I think you should add some sort of connection between the blocks, so not every single one has a black outline. I’m not sure how to explain it will but hopefully you got the idea?

[@_HoneyKnight]

What do you use to code Gelli Fields?

[@jackpayne8440]

Please make either a building system or a system where you place pre made buildings and can upgrade them. Could you also add a full on MC style farm

[@SamiTheAnxiousBean]

slight idea: What if when you let go of a tool it wouldn't just dissapear but float off screen towards the hub?

[@Fairlii]

That’s a cute idea!

[@edemaiscomtheovieira2718]

It would be cool if you could have multiple jellys at once

[@mushykins]

So you're tools never get swapped out for a "better" one... you know what that means.... Cosmetic Tools :) We are gonna need a Luna Lane tool skin 😎

[@Fairlii]

Tool skins is an actual epic idea

[@CosmicDriftR]

how do i play, like where do i download?

[@AtillaKreativ]

the tools lokking so coll⚒

[@LocalTrashyt]

Hey, what was the difference between Gelli world and fields

[@Fairlii]

Gelli World was a completely different game

[@Fairlii]

For more context, gelli world was a game with a main character that was closer to animal crossing and gelli fields is more of a simulator game

[@LocalTrashyt]

@@Fairlii Thxs.

I know this would probably be pretty complicated but what if you could make leaves useful and maybe make clothing out of leaves for the gelli like little shirts or better even hats? I just think it would be really cool and just wanted to suggest :D

Very cute

Can you make an animation for the tree falling?

[@Fairlii]

@@Elektricnisvet You can play it now on my discord server but the game is still really early in development so there isn't a ton to do yet

[@TomDevYT]

Looking good! But man, i really think the tools should just be in the HUD. Imagine you drag an axe way off to the side, then you accidentally miss the tree, you have to go all the way back and grab the axe again, move over and cut the tree down. Not a great player experience imo.

[@Fairlii]

The play area in the game is pretty small and you’re able to zoom in and out so you can zoom out and be able to see almost everything and grab the tools at the same time, I’m just super zoomed in on the video so it’s easier to see😵‍💫
