Making A CRAZY Physics FPS Game In Roblox

Welcome to the first devlog of making a crazy physics fps game in Roblox. Physics based enemies are going to be an integral part of the game and in future devlogs we'll be adding more functionality to them as well as other areas of the game. I hope you enjoy the video!

done

[@Friendlygod252]

Don ´ t worry i subbed :) w vid btw that is a really cool game your making

[@sirenheadbutnot]

Idea : Add a new weapon that fires explosive shells. Then add a bigger robot that is kind of a mini boss. You go from there.

[@AlexandMarinaIonlymadeth-by8vd]

I need a troll face enemy

[@Why-Just]

How did you know my favorite hobby is throwing baseballs at physic controlled spider robots in a digital world?

right when i heard "robots with ragdoll physics" i knew landfall was in this video somewhere! i wish more people tried doing what landfall does with physics i think your one of the first to fully implement it into a game tho

[@STHoly1]

2:58 my man is a complete criminal with that search history xddddd "how i met your mother" "howl's moving castle" "how to train your dragon" "how to delete instagram account" and "how to tie a tie" my man is a walking felony lolll

[@taypexx]

looks awesome! you could add some flying enemies, they are also easier to animate and script

[@SrSealKing]

It’s procedural animation, flying creatures are harder to procedural animate and script

that's not how it works its procedural animation its 10% harder

[@taypexx]

@@OreoRobDog it's not that hard

[@insertusernamehere8125]

harder*

[@Waorody]

It would be interesting for the game to have an immersion that makes you fear the enemies, as if you have an objective that you need to accomplish while these creatures chase you and hunt you for no reason, making you wonder why they are there following you and why exactly It's you they want. Finally, it would be interesting if they caused some fear, having dark colors and more pointed shapes (without rounded shapes and very light or colorful colors that make the character's figure seem more silly and harmless) giving the impression of being lethal and highly intelligent. It would be interesting if they had varied abilities like in the Rain World.

[@dacallp]

The quality of your videos is amazing! And you're a great developer, too, bro! Keep it up and you're gonna get far!

[@malypejlou4914]

Amazing work as always! All the best to the upcoming development

thats actually amazing ngl i hope you release this game

NGL Having a whole out Deep Rock Galactic gun as a working gun in Roblox is pretty damn cool, literally a robot from Robots Forever 2, jeez thats awesome.

[@RoboStitch1234]

This is literally my dream game, and im glad to see somone else making it because i have no idea how

[@Saykator]

This looks really good!, also will you make tutorial or smth, about that explosion?

[@Eisencrafter]

You should add a shovel to dig and a pickaxe to mine the rockes to build defences

[@MaznyaStudios]

You need to add something like C4, which you can attach to the enemy, then shoot at it and it will explode

[@Devious_Incorporated]

Great job, this video and the game was really well made and I look forward to future videos. One question though. How do you make those explosions? 😭😭😭 All the explosions in my games are that yucky ones Roblox ones and I’ve been trying to figure out how to do cartoony ones to no avail.

[@Roox4Official]

The explosion is just a couple of particle emitters. We don't use the default Roblox explosions.

[@DangerNoodle-oj3wn]

Also this game is based off of another game on steam called the landfall archives which has tons of beta and fun games!!

[@KashTheKingYT]

This is such a cool concept

[@tactifreeman]

thx for making it from my favorite game in the landfall archives

[@yerboimini]

ooh this concept is really cool! Awesome video :D

[@Dom5S]

I'm an aspiring game dev and people like you are the reason why I wanna do it! Please make more vids bro!

[@phoenixcoursey6711]

In terms of what you could add, you could add vehicles since it would be fun to hit the robots with, and maybe a bipedal robot.

[@Roox4Official]

We'll be adding more enemy variations in the next devlog, including bipedal robots.

[@littlejebus7849]

TANKS!!!!

Since I played Rain World I always wanted to see procedurally generated movement in Roblox and now it’s here

You did a great job making this game

[@hutcle]

Very well made video and game!

[@Shortimations]

video.. game..

[@Enovity]

Some sort of grappler would be cool, sorta like in titan fall where you grapple on a titan and pull out its battery, something like that would be pretty cool for this game

[@OreoRobDog]

You Should make More Types Maybe Even A Centipede Your Could Make A Upgrade Station For Your Gun And Maybe Models For The Enemy? Maybe Even Waves And A Boss At Like Wave 15 You Could Make It So You Can Harvest Them Maybe That Could Be How You Upgrade Your Weapon You Could Make Safe Zones And Maybe They Could Climb Walls And You Could Make Mele Weapons Like Swords Or Even Lazer Melee Weapons Also You Could Make Flying Entity's Like Birds And Destructible Props That It Cant Climb But It Just Plows Through You Could Even Make A Shop In The Safe Zone That Has Pets Maybe Like Smaller Creatures Like A Dog Robot With A Gun Or A Flying Robot With A Gun

[@dudeREUPLOADED]

Ive never seen inverse kinematics be used like this for a roblox game, this is crazy instant sub my guy

[@lamonliketinygaminglltg9463]

I love this! Was the explosion VFX taken from a library or did you make it yourselves?

[@Lenny___Face]

This made me realize that it’s litteraly just a thing always stuck on your screen with your camera moving and it a gun in your hands

[@yodathedevelopper]

Naah but that's actually crazy !I'm excited to see the progress🔥 Idea : Maybe some interactable / destroyable environment ?

[@Arm0redN3on]

From what I'm seeing, it's going for a cartoon style, but imagine something like this but with big menacing robots.

[@Panny-tp9ui]

Drones. Flying drones that shoot small projectiles at you (if you touch them they will deal damage to you because of their spinning blades that keep them in the air)

[@potoe6393]

this is awesome try making the spiders fire a burning lazer beam from their eye!!

[@amirsalih2332]

I love ur music in DVN!! Voltaic dispatch is my favorite

[@Smurfis]

The next thing you should add is a laser eye projectile to some of the spiders so that they have a more threatening feeling. You should also make it so when they have no limbs or die or get to close they turn red and self implode. You could have the limbs of the spiders try to join together to create a big robloxian too lol since it’s all rectangles but that sounds a bit too complex we’ll see!

[@shadowwolf21804]

Looks awesome can't wait to play it

[@jawad215skaiki5]

Add flying enemies that shoot bombs,beams,missles…and costumize them so each one has one or two attacks(to save time )

[@UnknownSteak]

Super nice!

[@GroguLittle]

i loved the original idea and love the fact you upgraded it

[@Toxtoxer]

This is an amazing project, keep going! I don't really have any ideas or suggestions of my own, although if I worked on such a project I'd inspire myself with other games that have procedurally animated stuff, I don't know any other games like that outside of Rain World though.

[@MatsuroPalette]

im not gonna lie. i thought physic's based enemies were impossible to be implemented in roblox. thanks for proving me wrong because i love physic based enemies

[@lancegwainesanson6229]

Things to add: add shields add armors add bases which you can upgrade add cars add flying enemies add deployable armies add a boss

[@Theminiengineer-uk8qu]

Plane crazy laughing from the side

[@G1brown]

I don't know what you have planned for this game so far, but I can imagine something like this turning into a game where you have to protect a fully destructible city, that'd be really cool

[@Kerbin_Earth_Explorer]

Tysm!🎉 now I was able to make robotic aliens on my new Venus project❤

[@_weirdoYT]

It would be really cool to add kind of like a story mode, where you’re trying to escape a high security prison, and those robots are trying to stop you from escaping

[@Whyuko-lh7mv]

This video inspired me to make more advanced rigs and jiggly robots, I had a modified version of the IK example tripod that is now used for a cartoony game, and now I am making a 2 legged one from scratch.

[@TelaGamer]

Please make a demo of your game! I would love to mess around with friends. Edit: Remember the giant sphere robot from The incredibles? it would fit very well i think. Be creative with your game's lightning! Here are some ideas: - Make walking interesting, add fog and adjust the player's FOV because it wouldn't be fair if the players could see the robots from such a distance (making them unable to reach the player to shoot) - Make them feel real, make each step reach far places (no need to be loud) and a patrol system so they cannot see you due to fog either and not just know where you are somehow.

[@lynxl587]

You should add a counter that shows the amount of enemy’s you have killed (total and server wide) and once you hit a certain amount of server kills you could launch a nuke which will kill all enemy’s.

[@Bert1VR]

waves of different enemies

[@GrindedGears]

From how code looks so far, i think i having way too many enemies in the same instance can cause lots of server lag while playing it with other players. Maybe the best route you can go is having a gameplay flow that consists of a small number of enemies, but they act like bosses/minibosses, just like similar games like monster hunter, where you have a small number of enemies that you fight, from 1 up to 3 most of the time, but the whole fight is interesting due to said few number of enemies having unique experiences compared to an another type. Maybe it has a different "personality" just how enemies in the newer doom games are like to stand out. The imps in doom keep a distance to throw fireballs away from you to avoid getting killed, brutes take a more hands-on approach and chase you in an almost straight line if the terrain allows it, or like left 4 dead's special infected like the hunter who tries to be sneaky to ludge on you or the spitter who mainly throws her acid and then tries to evade as quick as possible to remain alive and score an another hit on you and your teammates. An AI director like left 4 dead and 2 can also help a lot with optimizing the ai for big quantity of enemies. Valve has released their design plan and how the ai director came in mind and how it mostly works on a PDF file. Look for "The ai systems of Left 4 Dead" on google and it should pop on the top part of the page. Should give you a good reference point on how to optimize the AI for your enemies in the future + keep it less repetitive. You should definitely look at these kind of games but i assume you already know a good chunk of how they work since you showed them for a tiny bit at your video. This game can easily stand out since you already got backed by talented developers. What remains is to make the idea into something fun and not monotone like most homepage games. Besides that, i do not think i want to add anything extra besides these ideas/feedback. Hope to see more updates on your progress soon!

[@Roox4Official]

A lot of the code that is currently in the game is not a production code. I'll be optimizing a lot of stuff when things settle down. Right now we are in the early stages and we are experimenting with a lot of stuff. Also the AI director is something I'm very familiar with and I take a lot of inspiration from Valve games and how they design their games.

[@GrindedGears]

@@Roox4Official I see i see. Thanks for clearing up some stuff then! I still hope i was helpful even a tiny bit with my feedback.

[@BekoniX_VR]

thats actually sick keep up the good work dude

[@firstclass000]

You could add an endless mode where they spawn in waves and each wave gets harder and more of them spawn

[@Gaazzee]

I am not going to lie this might be roblox's next biggest game. This game has tons of potential!

[@Kano_Productions]

Hey look it's that robot game from landfall archives. I loved that one so much

[@talantravis1806]

I got some enemy ideas and a name for the enemy in this video if it does not have a name the name is Spider Tron 1000 and here are some other enemies Spider Tron 2000 has a laser eye Spider Tron 3000 Is a bit bigger and fast and has two laser guns on the side Crawler is really fast but has low HP Watcher is a long ranged robot can shoot from a long distance and likes to keep distance from the player and does a lot of damage buts shoots really slow and that's all my ideas to day I hope you like them and add them

[@Visint]

Suggestion! This is probably unneeded but I feel like the spider bots should be able to elevate themselves 2 compensate for 2 missing legs 4:33

[@D0M1N4NCE]

Add gun overheating, better shaders, a futuristic or apocalyptic map, a bossfight, a custom player model and better explosion effects along with some lets say dust particles to make it more realistic. Also you should play around with reflections as well.

[@marvellous_being]

Wow, looks great! I'd say a cool thing to add would be an enemy similar or the same as the giant missile launcher cube boss from Robots Forever 2's Dark Forest. Keep up the good work, GOD bless ✝👍

[@justafriendlychickennugget1784]

different enemy types would be cool, also some form of screen shaking when a robot is walking near you (since it’s obv gonna be heavy)

[@tomiramos5662]

A blunt sword that you can use to knockback the enemies (if co-op is ever added it can be a good troling tool)

[@DemonPig666]

i thought it looked like that game, but i forgot what it was called. i remember watching that guy's devlogs, i was looking forward to it. but thanks for continuing the legacy

[@BlitzGaming420]

This is an amazing game with so much potential! In the next devlog, it would be cool if you can kill the spider entity by shooting the head and the red light deactivates

[@play-station0]

Great Video! As a fan of Robots Forever myself it would be pretty cool if you would add the Giant Robot from the Dark Forest (or something similar to that) as like some boss or whatever.

[@J.ImperialCouncil]

Yo I dont know shit about coding but I love the way you explain all of this. Could you make like a scripting tutorial series. I totaly understand you if you prefer doing this more "advanced" content, I hope your chanel grows big.

[@ZAWGREAL]

i suggest makling their eyes look at you and actually attack you then adding like a big strider looking monster that's very buff kinda like the ones in helldivers

[@dunnyT]

For the raycast hitting the head issue, you can probably use raycast parameters

[@Roox4Official]

Every accessory has a part inside it called "handle", which I had no idea that's how accessories work, but I fixed it using collision groups.

[@nicholastutino4511]

This is amazing. You should add more enimies, which your problebly gonna do, add enimies with long legs that are tall. and some enimies that look like mini tanks. Incredible

[@jerichoguevara5233]

you should add dogs with a red box to hit for a more common enemy

[@Rkyiel]

this is just so cool, I have always been fascinated by procedural animations and funny physics, and to see it in the game engine I use?? just incredible Edit: You should make a devlog series out of this

[@Roox4Official]

Yes, this is just the first devlog. There's a lot more to come.

[@Rkyiel]

@@Roox4Official Just bought your patreon :)

[@StupidCritter]

You should add worlds and also an ominous tall figure that lunges at the player after stalking them

[@cesarcabrero4529]

the gigant enemy spider *ominus music plays*

[@Lordcatfish806]

It would be cool to have them adapte when they loses a leg or add drones or small kamikaze spider robot

[@lokithebigdog]

wow this is awesome!! amazing job :D

[@hankdaman]

Plus a sub. Could you try just adding humanoid robots?

[@Roox4Official]

I'll think about it.

[@havnmartin]

@@Roox4Officiallist of ideas (original and reposting others) Destrucible enviorment, weapons could make a small hole in the ground, and explosives could make a big hole in the ground Mechanical worms, a boss or a swarm of flying multi-segmented robots that have weapons on every 2 segment, when a segment is blown up it has a 25% chance to make the rest of the segments that got cut off from the original gets its own thoughts, or if it fails it will get either replaced by a phantom part, or the rest of the segments get melted back to the original. Spaceships, capsoles that fall from space and spawn more enemies.

[@Walmartman-y4x]

Can you add a robot that can fly but could only be damaged by throwing explosive barrels. It would be so cool to add giant slingshots around the map to launch the explosive barrel.

[@user-nil_cyan]

It would be cool if you added other robots which swoop up from above, and shadow clone themselves.

[@Tops.m]

this is gonna be amazing from the first devlog Idea: add more enemies that differen

[@comet3429]

Gl with finishing the game

[@shahxd41]

suggestion: for the movement, make it so the players can dive (e.g: Helldivers) suggestion: maybe make it so the buildings are destructible and the enemies can destroy the buildings(e.g: Jujutsu Shenanigans and Noob Warfare and Battlefield) also will the game be avaliable for mobile and consoles?

[@unfunny3]

Special kill conditions could be interesting (for example, this spider dude could explode if at least 8/12 leg segments are destroyed, aka 2 legs and most of a third or all 4 legs are reduced to 1 segment nubs, numbers are based on the spider having 3 leg segments in the video but I may be blind)

[@MfwDecoy]

Deep Rock Galactic GK2 spotted: Good video.

[@kieransmith2897]

Maybe add movement like sliding, b-hopping, or also wall running

[@rallicat69]

make a 2 legged enemy that can actually move! it would be pretty cool behavior if it worked.

[@notmalicious]

this premise is why i am developing games this game is cool pls release

[@aienthusiast618]

wait i think you should add spare parts that drop from robots and then that lets you build defenses like turrets via a crafting system

[@tmstv5561]

I think if you go to the create weld section and click on the arrow, you can just insert a spring.

[@tristanfarmer9031]

If possible, make it so the enemies have interactions with each other. Maybe a future enemy can heal the limbs of other robots, or enemies can combine if they lose parts in an attempt to repair themselves. Also, maybe a more massive robot you have to climb to defeat! Giant enemy spider (Starts beat boxing) What, you thought there was more? Ha, jokes on you! Also maybe please add some kind of eldrich horror alternate dimension with massive robots, either as a secret to scare the player, or as a level if there are levels. Thank you :D

[@lesliewest5071]

Here’s some ideas:a multiplayer wave defense where you can upgrade weapons and get new weapons over time with money you get from enemies and before the match starts maybe a map selection and to add boss every 20 wave and different enemies the further you go and maybe add ability like healing dmg buff etc.and maybe add missions and gear that you can grind for or maybe to add maps that have more enemies that come for you but gives more loot or that map can have effects on players and enemies/bosses that can make the do more or less dmg range maybe even visuals that can make your screen have fog or something or that you can get nps’s to help you to kill enemies faster and maybe give you buffs like hp dmg speed ect. I know that’s a lot because it is lol Edit: I bet I going to see so many comments that say “I’m not gonna read all of that” lol
