Programming Wallrunning in my Game with Godot

I will perform actual parkour in the next devlog 💀

Tf what that would be hype. Can you try out some calisthenics movements aswell.

When I implemented wall running in Godot, I used 6 raycasts 👀 with 3 methods to check if left, right or both. Didn't really consider doing it any other way. This look really cool - great video.

[@GaganaGM]

Super clear explanation. Nice work on the game too! ❤

[@mōellctie]

Damn nice vid! Great editing.

[@Die_Blue]

Nice one friend! You got me hooked. Looking forward for the game

[@isaacsnowcarini4808]

dude i just stumbled on your video and i ABSOLUTELY love your sense of humour, you have a new sub!

[@UnderdogDen]

Eyy thanks isaac

[@TheMirrorslash]

Dude, you're videos are great. You're a good developer too. I couldn't code that. Luckily you shared it and I can feed GPT some of your code sometime lmao. I'll credit you if I ever release anything with it ofc. Take care!

[@UnderdogDen]

Anytime dude, not necessary to credit

really fun video the game also looks really fun and cool can't wait to see more

[@ambushedraccoon6408]

Great video!

[@Mekkablood]

Think you've got a good system going especially with the blur effect, movement was a tough decision for my game too, but as long as it's something people find fun that's all that matters.

[@linuxgamingbr]

great job! can't wait to see the final result. ps. so good that you won't use motion blur anymore 🤣

[@biologyinanutshell2419]

Just found you videos, pawsome game dev! I recently tried to make a wallruning script and eventually gave up on doing the math with the normals. I personally used gravity based physics to wallrun (halving gravity and adding camera tilt), but this looks better than mine! Good luck on your game!

[@noneurbisness6521]

Informative and funny channel wtf doesn't it have more subs

[@milkyskyline]

Super interesting as always ❤

[@8BitQuinn]

Just binge-watched all your videos. Your knack for what makes a game tick is spot-on. I've noticed a trend among devs lately; they pour heaps of effort into crafting graphically pleasing games, but often skimp on nailing down that essential element: immersive sound and game feel. Some of my all-time favorite gaming experiences aren't about flashy UnReAL EnGine 69 graphics, they're all about that that feel-good when controlling or have incredible sound (or both), kind of like what Celeste delivers. Don't get me wrong, a game can still slap even with lackluster mechanics and controls, but it's those gems like Silent Hill / PT that prove how crucial top-notch sound and atmosphere can make or break a game. Combining these elements is a balance, but at the end of the day, it's just a video game and they are made to escape. Great games make you feel like you're doing something fun, historic games make you ~F E E L~ something more imo. Also, Dog, when you become multi-millionaire CEO of big game dev company in the near future can you tell them not to add toxic micro transactions like pay-to-win plzthx 🥺❤

[@UnderdogDen]

Really appreciate that fam, you're right about what you said.

[@Chaff_Games]

Love the video but goddamn you gotta put a check box to let me turn off that blur when I buy this game.

[@UnderdogDen]

I'll try 💀

[@alexkt3400]

Thanks for open sourcing the goods dawg! See ya on the Frontier

dude, man is completely under appreciated

[@CLeovison]

Man please continue on making tutorial on godot using c#. Thank you so much

[@vvv331]

this channel is underrated. Not only sourcecode is available but there are also really nice explanations throughout the video. i dont get it why people were considering you a dani ripoff. its a whole other format to me. (also im excited for the development of this game, movement FPS makes me go y e s)

[@Cybo3D]

cool video, only thing is when wallrunning the camera rotation is too slow so it doesnt feel snappy

[@id-null]

I like what you're doing with the blur in general, mirrors edge felt so much more realistic than arcadey because of it. However I think a good middleground (like the game itself) would be so that the effect is way more subtle, or have movement lines like some games do) when you're accelerating or maintaining high speed on ground. But make it so the longer you maintain high speed in air (or when momentum is hard to stop), the more harsh the blur gets. This way, I think the player can feel as though the blur gets like that when you perform an action you CANT stop your momentum from. It will make big jumps feel spookier, It will inform the player on your movement mechanics naturally. Think of how it could be an 'adrenaline' effect more than just a speed blur. just an idea lmao

[@schmo103]

Man im so fuckin hyped for where the godot communities goin good shit keep up the work ❤

[@mortaldev4999]

We found dani guys, he is the successor

[@IanDiaz]

Just FYI - it's very unlikely that using a full collider will be cheaper than doing two raycasts. It may be less lines of code (though I'm not completely sure I buy that as you could wrap the raycasting code in another function), but ticking actual colliders and tracking the resulting collisions is generally going to be more expensive than casting two rays, especially in a language like C# or GDScript where you're generating a bunch of garbage for each collision. I'm not super familiar with Godot specifically so I'm not sure if their raycasting API returns heap allocated objects or stack allocated objects, but in the latter case, I'd think raycasts would be completely allocation-free, whereas from the look of it, there are almost certainly several allocations happening under the hood for the collider.

[@UnderdogDen]

Yeah ofcourse, I only went with the collision method because I wanted the detection to be better. You're right, I might actually change my mind later, I think I may have overexaggerated there.

[@saidevpappu]

why your video is looking low quality with green and pixlated? what device you use for recording yourself?

I dont think I had this much fun watching a devlog ever. Your content is gold, keep going, I need the motivation🥲

[@ambushedraccoon6408]

I have a question. At 5:42, this part is about dot product. It looks like you will only check if the wall is kind of vertical enough, isn't it? How do you check if the side angle is good enough for a wall run? Is it by using the dot product with the normal and player forward vector?

[@UnderdogDen]

Yeah I check if the wall is kind of vertical enough. To answer your second question, I just get the angle between the wall normal and player forward vector, but you could ofcourse use the dot product there too.

[@ambushedraccoon6408]

​@@UnderdogDen Thanks for answering. One more question though: Did you use 'wallrunnable' planes or boxes? I'm just wondering how you don't teleport to the other side of the thin wall, like at 6:21, and how you choose which normal/wall to use when you have a lot of runnable areas in a small space. Maybe some additional key help? Like if I press Left and Shift to run along the left wall?

[@UnderdogDen]

@@ambushedraccoon6408 I don't mark anything as "wallrunnable". Anything that has a surface with the above mentioned constraints will be "wallrunnable". The player just has to be sprinting forward and be close to the wall regardless of the side the wallrun is. The wallrun side is determined by the 'signed angle' of the wall normal and player forward vector.

[@ambushedraccoon6408]

@@UnderdogDen alright I think I got it, thanks for the answer.

[@football_247updates]

[@pbentesio]

What are you using to draw the debug visuals in game? When I used Unity back in the day I used the built in Debug.Draw but I didn't find anything similar in godot's docs

It's a draw library I found on Github. github.com/DmitriySalnikov/godot_debug_draw_3d
