What's the game at 0:01?

[@thebeav111]

Delta V has got to have sold more than half of those, great GODOT game, definitely more successful than a few games on your list.

[@lukeusername]

Miziziziz said on his podcast he could buy a house thanks to Markiplier playing Endoparasitic 😂

[@stayathomedev]

That's insane

[@lukeusername]

Yah I have no idea if he was exaggerating but it's impressive

[@Flonkation]

whoa, ok, so that was what happened ! Following miziziz channel, I saw this game coming out , looking cool. Good for you Miziziz :D

"Endoparasitic starts like most games do, with you having three limbs ripped of and having to move with one arm" Damn, I just can't see this old story in video games anymore!

[@readyplayer2197]

I own half of these games, not even knowing they were made in godot! 😄

[@Galko655e]

Showcase how good the Godot engine is.

[@ryonagana]

its weird. when the game uses Unity you know the game is really using Unity

[@EspyMelly]

Game design is king, the engine only matters in terms of what its capabilities are. You can make an 8-bit simple pixelated game by yourself and if it's a fantastic game you have a chance at making good money off of it. Though luck will always play a factor in your game being discovered in saturated markets like Steam.

[@orkhepaj]

nah, engine matters a lot

[@NobleAbsinthe]

⁠most people who complain and compare engines couldn't even print "Hello world" tbh.

[@leonardoraele]

Marketing is not a matter of luck

[@EspyMelly]

@@leonardoraele Marketing mitigates luck by increasing the chances of your game reaching an audience as a multiplier to the game's natural appeal, and with smart marketing you can focus on the audience that you believe is most likely to enjoy your game, but it's no guarantee still. Otherwise games like Immortals of Aveum, having spent multiple millions of dollars on marketing, wouldn't have sold practically nothing and still be mostly unknown in the mainstream.

[@Nebuchadin]

Thing is, you can literally make any type of game in Godot. I've recently switched over from 4 years of Unity, and it's almost the same, Godot even has some capabilities that Unity doesn't. Only thing is that, since Godot is much less popular, there are a lot less resources to learn. Hopefully that changes soon. Great video man! Edit: I mean "Any type of game", graphical and performance limits are limited by not only your code, but also the engine. Still, as far as genres goes, anything (with obvious limitations) go.

[@Nebuchadin]

@@_v_m_ I get your point, but you stand on the premise, in this case alone, that a game "has to look good", and since Godot can't handle "really good graphics", the game can't be good. (I'm not saying you think like this at all, just taking the premise you said). But, just like having more instruments doesn't make better music, having better 3D graphics doesn't make a better game. I'm currently developing a sort of shooter + Tony Hawk + Bulletstorm game. 3D, and, since, like you said, you can't squish much performance from Godot, I'm working with a 3D artist to make simple, cel-shaded models, and have low fidelity graphics, sort of like Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. This does not mean the game will be bad, and doesn't mean that the game will look bad. This means, if we do a good job, the game will be fun and enjoyable and comparable to other games made with Unity/Other Engines. So, yes, it's really hard to do woodworking with a spoon, but a talented artist would only need the tip to make something beautiful.

[@WiseSageBum]

I jumped ship to Godot earlier this year, and it only seems that the number of Godot resources is only growing 🤞🏽 This means more indie games made in the engine and more hits to bring folx to the engine

[@fuarrkk]

when do you think these things will be fixed? in 1 year? whats your personal guess? @@_v_m_

[@Ash_18037]

This simply wrong, you literally cannot make any game in Godot. Misleading people like this is actually counterproductive. In future you'd be far better saying something like Godot 4 is becoming more and more capable and can build a growing number of 2d and 3d games types. If you meant to say "almost any type of game" that would be much closer to the truth.

[@Nebuchadin]

@@Ash_18037 Hm, you're right I guess my wording is misleading. I obviously mean any type of game, as in genre. Graphical limits are there, of course, as well as performance limitations beyond your code. Edited the comment :D

[@RobertSanta-v9m]

Gotta think that Sonic Colors for Switch has to be #1. That's long been known to have used Godot, which the devs modded to death.

[@kkay000]

What's the very first game shown? 0:01 I really want to know

[@animatrix1490]

It’s apparently called Gunmetal Gothic

Do you like it? Thanks for the info btw

[@mbg4681]

@@brandonjacksoon I do, thanks! YW and congrats on the success!

[@owdoogames]

I wonder how *Cassette Beasts* being on Game Pass affected its income?

[@kkoutrid]

I think games, except for getting money to be on game pass, they also get money depending on how many hours they are being played pee month. So it could even have helped it a lot actually

[@MartinBarreby]

What is that first PS1-looking game? Love the look of it!

[@bjornzexi535]

Really hoping someone will fill us in here

[@ravsters]

[@rraallvv]

Oh wow! Some of those games look like something I might try to develop myself... you know... just for fun. It'd be awesome if we could have some confirmation on those estimates from the developers 🤔

[@xqnack]

Most of these games are done by teams. if you can do it by urself then thats just amazing man

[@leonardoraele]

What is the PS1-style game shown in the intro? (at 00:00)

[@comrade_snarky]

Gunmetal Gothic

[@thomasdeutelmoser8986]

And your only move is hustle just had a huge update today!

[@stayathomedev]

Let's go!

[@jonskowitz]

Just picked up Cassette Beasts, great game! I was looking at this engine for my next project once i wrap up my current one.

[@hiiambarney4489]

I wasn't aware that YOMI Hustle, Halls Of Torment and Cassette beasts are Godot Games. YOMI Hustle in particular looks like one of these games where the Dev is a programmer Nerdhead who developed his own engine specifically for one game.

[@stephanrobertgames]

what is this psx like looking game in the intro *.* thus looks great

[@stayathomedev]

Gunmetal Gothic

[@davidebigotto]

@@stayathomedev And what about all the others in the intro?

[@in-craig-ible6160]

Cassette Beasts is getting a multiplayer update at some point in the future, so that should bump those numbers up.

[@richardspirtz5863]

it felt like the estimated revenues are totally random though

[@ajhanaimu2343]

🧐ok Mr.Detective

[@SurrealLeaf]

@@ajhanaimu2343 Cruelty squad revenue is vastly over the top and I have massive doubts. In Finland, where the game is made, most of the income tax is transparent and open. The revenue of the company was 980k in release year of 2021 and 640k last year (2022). So while its really high, its nowhere near the 5.5 million revenue this claims.

[@AdolfHitler-lk4vo]

​@@SurrealLeafcheck the steam stats lol

[@kuzmich1717]

Congrats these developers! these games are so cool!

[@OHMSdev]

we pronounce godot "guh-dough" round these parts

[@owdoogames]

That is the correct and only way and anyone who says otherwise is an uncultured philistine.

[@casanovafunkenstein5090]

You'd be wrong. There's a reason why the play is called "Waiting for Godot" and not "Waiting for Guddoh".

[@garnetember8569]

You’re both right, either way is fine

[@tiacool7978]

Domekeeper seems really interesting. I might check that out. I passed it over once before, since I couldn't tell what it was about. But hearing the description, it sounds similar to another game I occasionally play. Glad all these games are doing well.

[@WespaVesaAijala]

It is very good game. Have been playing it many days now. Lots of replay value.

[@thebeav111]

I got bored of it pretty quick sadly. Delta V on the other hand, great GODOT game

[@kevinegger5704]

from what game is the gameplay in the first few seconds of the video? (that pixel art 3d shooter game)

[@ragreenburg]

People who think that games made in Godot couldn't make money clearly don't know what a game engine does. Look at lots of very well selling indie games and they could all be make in virtually an engine.

[@user-tc5qc4ql8m]

congrats on being the only person i've seen pronounce the name "godot" correctly. signed, someone who is stuck in the habit of saying "ga-DOH" lol

[@inuinuinuinuinu]

It’s pronounced Godot

[@matheusrocha5596]

afaik GOD-oh is the original pronunciation. But the situation is similar to GIF, the original intended pronunciation kinda sucks so it's rare to see it being used

[@fadofficialmusic]

I love cassette beasts, dome keeper, brotato and yomi hustle.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 And there's a new game hauma that I love too.

[@kardrasa]

Cruelty Squanch! I thought it was gonna take first place but yeaaah I forgot about Brotatur!

[@stayathomedev]

Not a huge difference apparently. But yeah brotato is sprouting money everywhere

[@realmarsastro]

I love the Gado engine

[@igorgiuseppe1862]

there is also lumencraft and a port of sonic colors

[@H3_remix]

I have number 8, and wanted to say without sitting down to learn the game it’s not possible to sit and play. It’s also not exactly a fighting game the way you think. You have to create the animation and that’s the “game”. You can go through frame by frame and add each portion of the fight then play it. But “playing” the game is the same as pressing play on a video. You make it up and then watch it.

[@DaPlushGuy]

It doesn’t matter what engine you use. It all boils down to the fun of the game.

[@jaybee4288]

Hmm… Godot won’t allow you to make certain genre/types of games and use certain levels of graphics. Which are important in some cases. I can honestly say I probably would only buy two of these ten games based on screenshots. I do agree fun game is the most important thing, but it’s also important to be able to entice people to buy it.

[@Tasmantor]

@@jaybee4288 It's an okay movie I guess Mr Hitchcock but black and white simply wont entice audiences to see it.

[@cathacker13]

How can you estimate the revenue? Those numbers are a bit unbelievable to me.

[@84bombsjetpack23]

Are you sure this is a complete list? Looks like you just picked 10 random Godot games.

[@stayathomedev]

Based on most popular on Steam, went through first 20-30 games and got the top 10 highest grossing based on VGInsights revenue algorithm. There might be 1-2 that could sneak in at the bottom but pretty confident about the rest. Definitely not random

[@therealwhite]

Gotto engine?

[@fifski]

Oh boy, I don't know where you took those estimates from, but divide the estimates by 20 or 30 and maybe you will end up with real revenue these devs made

[@wardhale]

I really like some of these games... But I don't think this list is very convincing. I can't mention any of these games to random people and expect them to know what they are. A list from unity, unreal, game maker, RPG maker, would be far more impressive to casual types. I'll still use godot and I get your point that it can be used for real games... But yeah. I think the big hits are in the future with this engine.

[@Squant]

Pfft, casuals. Let them consume generic products mindlessly churned out for mass appeal and profit. We're the ones with the secrets. We get the true gems.

[@h.f.v.1428]

I dont know that Cruelty Squad was made in Godot, but for me this is the best game on the list to show the power of godot, not because of graphics, but how the engine can do a lot of crazy stuff.

[@JDM239]

I don't know where you got the information from, but let's take "brotato" 2 million sales in steam at a minimum price of $1

[@lahirugamage9409]

wait till Road to Vostok........its going to be the best game created on godot.......

[@MCPeeBoy]

I swear, Endoparasitic is the only game that is worth checking out. All the others mentioned in the list seem just to unimaginative.

[@exilednivera]

I mean... Godot is multipurpose game engine. Same as unity. It doesn't really matter what engine you use as long as it can handle tasks you can make successful projects with it. Unity only beats with quantity cause community is bigger.

[@michaelluck5577]

what im surprised by is that yomi hustle was made in godot. it def looks like one of these games with a custom engine in it. there is really no excuse for the art anymore... games still great

[@rathernotdisclose8064]

Halls of Torment is made in Godot, I think.

[@aliosha123]

All these games would have been cool back in 93

[@JF-um3wz]

I think what’s important to note about Godot is that it’s not mainstream because it’s “unpopular”, but because it’s a newer engine. The more game developers that use it, the more games we’ll see in its engine.

The engine really doesn't have much to do with how successful a game will be. Look at how many incredible games have been made in things like Game Maker.

[@hiiambarney4489]

That was the one to beat though. There are still big games made in GM2. And household Indie titles didn't stem from Godot yet. Godot 4 did a lot of magic though, and it finally managed to even convert me.

[@kelvinnkat]

Sonic Colors Ultimate used graphics components of Godot so it would have been nice if it had been part of the list, or at least an honorable mention. But otherwise, great work?

[@hiiambarney4489]

They forked their own Godot build pretty much. They used a bit more than just graphics components if I can recall correctly but overall that's way too complicated for me to understand what happened there as it was said they made 2 different Godot versions and then some other stuff and "Frankensteined" that into the Engine that was used to make Sonic Colors Ultimate
