I myself many times take the general knowledge we all have of games for granted and forget that not everyone is as use to playing them as I am, so I made this to be able to be a free resource to point people to in order to help teach the basics before going to other platformers.
That's about where my record is too haha. This was mostly made for newcomers to the Platformer genre and people that don't play many video games! I had thought about expanding it to advanced tech in the future though that would be harder.
I created a custom Resource that holds String data, a time delay (used for if I want a break between text appearing), text speed, and an array of text effects. I then create an array of that Resource per level and can read in the data I want to a RichTextLabel, generating the string character by character (depending on text speed) and setting the text field of the label each time a character is generated
Yeah I was having some stuttering issues as well, I think it has to do with the particle effects. It should only happen the first time the particles are attempted to be rendered.
I think the pigeon moves maybe a little too slow in relation to the cats, or I'm just bad at controlling them haha. The UI was also a little blurry.
Gameplay wise though I thought it was fun, maybe if you are planning any updates you could add in powerups or special breadcrumb types that move the pigeon in different ways!
It was a fun one to play, I really liked the gameplay! I think the Start button on the main menu could use some visual feedback when hovered on, but other than that the levels were great and had a good mix of mechanics!
Being able to move objects after pressing play was by design actually! I wanted to provide opportunity for the player to use the same object multiple times throughout the level and wanted to give more player agency by not limiting them to just placing and pressing play! At the end of the day I wanted people to come up with their own solutions rather than use my predetermined one, so if they can jump infinitely on the plank then I count that as a creative solution to the puzzle :) thanks for playing and for the feedback
Wow, fantastic game. It has great juice in it's visual effects, and it makes everything feel so impactful. Solid gameplay loop and very addicting. I had a lot of fun playing this, great job!
I had some ideas for having certain switches you had to press before being able to progress and at one point I allowed the player to switch which direction they were moving to open up more level design. In the end though I had to cut some things to keep it simple enough to finish.
Thanks! I wish I had the time to implement more puzzles and rooms, but since this was my first venture into making a game in Godot I wanted to keep the project small! Thanks for playing!
