I Paid 3 Fiverr Devs To Make A Game in Godot 4

[@MrsNotch]

Hey, I was the second developer in the video. I sadly didn't use my time efficently to create the game in my mind :(. It was an exciting challange. Thanks a lot for letting me participate in this.

[@stayathomedev]

Great work! Not easy switching engines!

[@JayYeasmin]

Nice work! What did you think of Godot?

[@aryantzh2028]

i don't even understand what is that about, i tought its an action game and so confused why u give the timers for cinematic scene or something like that

[@aryantzh2028]

tbh the artstyle is good but the gameplay is confusing

[@geraldsmithers9270]

Did you jump the Unity Ship and swim over to the Godot ship full time? Considering it?

[@shegzy6061]

For a second I forgot I made the first game. It felt like a gameplay review 😊. Working with godot for the very first time wasn't very straightforward. Figuring out where things are relative to unity was a lot of stress. Also, I didn't find much available tools in godot compared to unity. One of the major factors of game making is getting your fundamentals right. When you have your fundamentals intact, a change of tool is something you can always easily adapt to. Overall, the entire experience was interesting for me because I finally got to work with another game engine. Though I couldn't accomplish all that I initially had sketched out, I'm pleased with the outcome 😊. For now, I won't consider switching to Godot but I can try a couple of more projects in it.

[@stayathomedev]

Great work and thanks for sharing your experience!

[@ClokworkGremlin]

It was good. I almost want to come up with something to commission you to make just to get a more in-depth comparison.

[@shegzy6061]

@@ClokworkGremlin I'm down for another project at the moment

[@mariegrasmeier9499]

Great work. Amazing

[@Wisdawms]

Your game was actually awesome

[@MastermindAtWork]

I really love the first game. Considering that person had to learn fast and came up with a 3D escape room idea shows that you don't need to know everything about Godot in order to use it long as you have your fundementals in check.

[@stayathomedev]

Exactly, even if there were reused assets...you still have to work within Godot's system (nodes, GDScript).

[@shegzy6061]

Thanks 😊 A lot of my development process actually happens outside of the engine and on paper. When you have your game designed, you can always pick the specific parts of the engine that helps you achieve what you have in mind and based on my unity experience, it was quite easy to do a Google search of what tool I needed.

[@MastermindAtWork]

@@shegzy6061 I'm starting to understand that now. It makes it a lot easier documenting how to you want your project and mechanics to function rather going off of your head.

[@sleepchat]

Man, you are killing it with this channel in my opinion. I just love the content. The videos are authentic, honest and without any bloat. Cheers from Cape Town, South Africa.

[@frost8077]

That first game had my full attention. I almost forgot what video I was originally watching. All three were really cool to watch and creative takes.

[@VirtualReality-zv5oh]

Thank you for this very interesting attempt! 😆 I would love to know from these developers what they liked better and what was more difficult for them and where. And also which of the two engines they would use for which projects. 😀

[@stayathomedev]

I'd love to do a follow-up...I'll have to check with the devs

[@NaturallyIntelligent]

Loved the Morgan Freeman plot twist! 😆

[@stayathomedev]

It was that or Obi-Wan Kenobi

[@TheRealAfroRick]

First game was a good quick hackathon game. That dev has experience and knows how to focus on getting sometbing done withing requirements. Hats off to him/her.

[@mintyunbox5307]

i dont use godot but i still love to see what people create with it, as somebody who uses unity i like how you flipped the challenge for your self and tried something new, loved the video. in the near future i will now challange my self and try to make a short game in godot!

[@stayathomedev]

That's awesome! Honestly, there are a lot of parallels. And the general game dev knowledge still applies.

[@DevJeremi]

It would be cool if you also had opinions from them about how they liked to work in godot.

[@justdavid6678]

My left ear really enjoyed Morgans Speech

[@stayathomedev]

Is it only playing through the left channel??

[@dot_rkd]

The same thing happened to me in Unity a few weeks back. Incredibly frustrating, but encouraged me to stick with Godot. Kudos for pulling through!

[@ShakeyBox]

It's a good video, and really cool how you linked to thr people you did in the description. (While blacking out the name of the third dev to prevent hate.) Very nice.

[@stayathomedev]

Thanks!

[@nestorpiedraquesada2954]

It's quite impressive! I remember the first time I grabbed Godot after using only Unity, I barely made a playera controller haha

[@stayathomedev]

But you did 👍

[@denether]

I honestly switched from Unity to Godot, and my workflow drastically increased.

[@stayathomedev]

That's great!

[@geraldsmithers9270]

I'm sure you're even more happy with your decision now

[@Plaegu]

You helped them out with the recent events of Unity this week.

[@vast634]

I have Godot crash often too, so regular saving is important in any case in any tool you work in.

[@BastiaanOlij]

Very cool, it would have been nice to get a reaction from the devs on their experience. So are you converting to Unity now ? :P

[@stayathomedev]

🤦should have...next time. And not if projects get deleted after a crash haha

[@Xograch]

Of course it's not the best you've ever made, but you did make something. Props for that. Also it was a fun idea hiring unity devs to switch to godot engine! Would be interesting to hear what their experience and opinion are about working with godot.

[@stayathomedev]

Thanks! Yeah, that's a good idea for next time

[@tonymorgan602]

I feel your pain. Really great video!

[@stayathomedev]

Not gonna, when I lost the Unity project, I was about done

[@thepolyglotprogrammer]

Absolutely does transfer the experience. I currently have ongoing projects on both and I came from Unity.

[@stayathomedev]

I'd have to say, based on what was created...even if using existing assets, you still have to work within the engine and I think a lot transferred.

[@_gamma.]

What a twist! 😆 Edit: DOUBLE TWIST 😭 your game turned out nice, especially considering the engine! The crash was 😬

[@stayathomedev]

Thanks! There was def a moment there....

[@bigboibob2568]

I'm jealous of the millenium falcon in the back

[@the_procrastinator8606]

7:00 the sprite mirroring 💀 and that's why 150 dol is far from enough to make an actual game... fiverr never changes. it's still a fun experiment tho, don't get me wrong, always a few gems in there.

[@omarabuabdullah4862]

some people say it "Godoh" and others "Go dot" but i have never seen someone calling it "God ouh"

[@_gamma.]

This was a sponsored video?? Such a fun idea, reminds me of miziziz’s asset pack jams!

[@stayathomedev]

Oh man, that sounds like a great idea

[@12kenbutsuri]

"It crashed" summary of Unity.

[@demian5631]

I currently find myself in a similar situation. Only it's been over a year since I last touched Unity (or any game-engine/programming interface) and I was never that great to begin with. Anyway, I do quite enjoy Godot so far (though I've only created a third person character controller). I really like some of the quality of life features and quick start-up time Godot has.

[@stayathomedev]

Sometimes it's just a matter of finding the right tool for you. That could be Unity, Unreal, or Godot. All are amazing tools when you think about what it used to take to make games, even like the ones in the video.

[@demian5631]

@@stayathomedev Hell, the Quake engine was magicical back in the day (it still kind of is in a way) but to have that for free today and with graphical features that even offline-renderers couldn't pull off 20+ years ago is insane. Still, if my first (and only) game is any indication, no matter what tool you put into my hands, it'll turn out terrible.

[@ClokworkGremlin]

If you held a gun to my head and told me to guess what engine the first game had been developed in, I would say "Stop that, point that somewhere else." But also I would have guessed it was made in Unity.

[@BlueOctopusDev]

good video :)

[@stayathomedev]

Thanks!

How long was the time frame?

[@moses_on_zen]

How long did they get to make it😅

[@GamingsMostAmazingSoundtracks]

Godot is legit a good game engine. Idk why you treat the idea of using the engine as a challenge when it’s one of the best engines out there 🤦🏾🤦🏾🤦🏾.

[@dariellobaina1470]

It’s pronounced go-dough
