I think that B version is better, but could use some tweaking. Perhaps Gerald is teleporting just like they do in Star Trek, sort of like deleting a part of itself and 3d printing it somewhere else? 🤔

[@TitanLordofPizza]

I think B for the drone spawning is good.

[@craz2580]

The character is clearly a George

[@hamzahgamedev]

The game, the quality, the editing, the sound effects… everything is so well connected to each other. Now i am Really excited for this game. Wishlisted!

[@Astoaria]

Thanks mate!

[@obrooks]

Glad to see another video, the robot character turned out really well and fits the game's style. Best of luck on multiplayer!

[@novafox6495]

I would definitely say A looks better for geralds spawning and that was my genuine reaction after seeing you compare the two, but it's interesting to see how most people think B is better. It seems more unique and is not what I would expect in a sci-fi themed game. btw, the same thing can be said about the multiplayer, I think the game would've been perfectly find without it but having this mode and functionality is always bonus. Keep it up

[@gnamly]

If you can make the drone "unfold" that would look cool as animation. Otherwise B is a cleaner way. And again a great video. keep up the nice work :)

[@UmarKhaleeq]

Lovely words! Thanks for opening up and for sharing!

[@zestydev_]

I think A looks better, the drone already looks very balloon-like so it inflating out of you would make sense, maybe make the metal eye part retract or something though

[@user-yn1oi6iv1f]

Finally, he's back to yt

[@LyimU]

A needs some work, but I prefer it over B.

[@craz2580]

THE RETURN OF THE KING

[@rootbindev]

I love it! entertaining devlog

[@tomhalik4877]

He's back

[@RugbugRedfern]

Welcome to multiplayer heaven/hell dude, good luck! That robot model looks 🔥🔥

[@gerhardvanniekerk3759]

Option A

[@VectorPerkinsAnimation]

when they did the glitchy noises my computer lagged

[@AmorVim]

your modelling skills are on point btw :)

[@computercrazies]

When I do multiplayer I limit the prediction to movement input only, I also use a single unsigned 8 bit integer for actions and instead of flipping bitwise switches like the original controls I let it be a 0-256 ACTIONID which allows me to create communication for hundreds of actions.

[@Houtblokje]

I like the A version better.

[@Vitaxses]

been waiting for way too long but im glad to see you back

[@Jouwney]

This game will be 🔥🔥🔥

[@Multimedia_Artist]

Let's do this game together. I can prepare beautiful scenes for you.

[@computercrazies]

When using bones and joints the problem a lot of times is the ORDER in which you connect the bones, and making sure you know which one is the PARENT and which one is the CHILD. Basically everything's parent should lead to the torso being last parent. I hope this winds up being the issue but I am thinking if it was that simple you would have found it by now.

[@Rosey-44-46]

B for the drone spawning

[@RobLang]

I used to have lots of hair before I started adding multiplayer. Best of luck!

[@Astoaria]

Lol

[@slimebuck]

i vote option C, make it look mechanical like a transformer changing shape

[@hacklordmonster8780]

how about making him fold in some way? maybe you could split the gray part from the ball part and kind of fold the ball to fit next to it idk anyway glad you're back!

[@Astoaria]

I like the folding idea it would be a little bit more realistic

[@hacklordmonster8780]

@@Astoaria Yeah that's what I thought

[@ProbablyM_S]

yeah thats what I was thnking aswell glad you're back part aswell XDDD

[@thegreenfox011]

clearly, the guy is called george

[@arctiformgames]

Nice work, multiplayer is a lot of work to implement so I know this video doesnt give your work enough justice! Also I think B is the better spawning animation

[@VEETEEGameStudio]

Hey man great video I have a few questions about the player server client server method you approached for your games multiplayer

[@Astoaria]

Hey sure!

[@djawedgaming5115]

pls make a option to low the quilty like lower it no textures no shadows less animaiton no effect and shader and orther staft atlease the game can run in 4-3 ram and 2.50 ghz

[@PythonicIe]

this is the worst time for unity to pull their shit, hopefully they revoke their decision so you dont have to spend an ungodly amount of time to migrate this entire masterpiece

[@thegreenfox011]

also i prefer a smoother animation

[@andrasgodo]

New character name should be Elon bc he is Jeffs biggest competitor and also man of the space

[@Eu_Claire]

or option C, make him shrink then do the spawn/despawn. www 😆

[@b4ph0m3tdk9]

B fits this game.

[@ArythNeon]

I think the robots name could be either, Aria or Astor

[@ninuji69]

A better

[@Yani_Ya]

A cuz if he can teleport why should he stay in the player's body? If there is a reason (he should watch what the player is doing for example) then B would be better

[@Skeffles]

This looks great, although is the player meant to be a human/robot/cyborg? This has confused me That being said I like the idea that Gerald is in the player and I definitely think B, the fading effect, is a good way to fix it's scale issue.

[@Astoaria]

Thank you! Yeah the player is meant to be a robot with some human parts due to the story

[@wondercoll3719]

looks cool

[@flapjacksmike]

Dani, is that you?

[@videorowtv5198]

I think you should name him Greg

[@uncertaintytoworldpeace3650]

U ever played like Tf2? And league of legends? What I would do if I had an IQ would be combine them. Powerup control/tower destruction is good gametype for some reason they haven’t made it 3D.

[@chairchairyes2524]

oh nice its multiplayer thats cool

[@user-yn1oi6iv1f]

No crocs (except cuts from other videos)?

[@michaelc5415]

would definitely say A

[@H-jn5gt]

Cool video! Where are you from? Your accent is awesome :)

[@acrilly]

another 3 years?

[@khal9865]

i think B would be cooler for Gerald!

[@JolanXBL]

I think you should make the characters huge, and give him slow lumbering walking like the robots in the PS2 game robot alchemic drive. Why wouldn't you make giant? Everyone and every character every game is always 'normal' sized. Why even have a Gerald if you have a character? Or other way around

[@podwawel]

I truely understand that multiplayer implementation took you 8 months, its still pretty good result tho

[@Vitaxses]

Jeffery

[@slomp2313]

b is fire

[@Etercy]

A with good animation

[@wellwellwelp]

why dont you shade smooth?

[@gemesprime7445]

Shader looks better 😁

[@Norimtim]

Bro, Dani is acting kinda sus

[@b3rk15]

A

[@Junior-st3pg]

[@nobreppbig]
