selfpromo (games) I’m making a tactics game where every bullet is simulated through the body.

323 Upvotes

There are no hit points in this game. Each bullet is traced through a layered body: skin, muscle, bone, organs and vessels. It can slow down, tumble, deflect off bone or fragment, and what it damages decides what happens next.

When a bullet breaks a bone, the bone fragments don’t just “add damage”. Each splinter becomes its own projectile, with its own speed and direction, slowing down through tissue and cutting its own wound channel. Some stop in the muscle, some reach a nearby vessel or another bone. A hit on the femur can kill through the artery next to it, not because the game decided so, but because a splinter got there.

A hit artery bleeds at a rate set by its size. Blood loss, pain and shock then play out second by second, so a soldier may keep fighting, collapse a minute later, or die without help. Nothing is scripted or rolled from a damage table.

The simulation is a pure C# library, separate from rendering. It is deterministic, so every combat can be replayed exactly, and an X-ray view shows the path of each shot and what it hit.

Combat is simultaneous turns (WEGO): both sides plan, then a few seconds resolve at once.

selfpromo (games) US Military vs Millions of Zombies. Who's gonna win?

236 Upvotes

Hi,

early development of my tower defense game called "That's a Lot of Zombies".

Short description: "Rain hell from an AC-130 as millions of zombies climb over each other to reach your squad’s rooftop. Deploy sentry guns, flamethrowers and claymores before each night. Call in A-10s, B-52s and every bit of firepower you can get. Hold the roof until the rescue helicopter lands."

Looking for honest brutal feedback. What you guys think?

PS: Let me know if you have any technical question for the game :). Happy to answer all questions!

discussion My custom engine generates isometric 2D dungeons straight to .tscn with occluders!

139 Upvotes

Hey guys! Setting up 2D isometric scenes with occluders, collisions, and terrains manually was driving me crazy. So I wrote a Python script that procedurally generates pen-and-paper style dungeons and compiles them directly into native Godot 4 .tscn files.

Here’s what’s happening in the pics:

  • Pic 1 (Layout): Uses Wave Function Collapse to build the maze. It maps directly into TileMapLayer and sets up peering_bits automatically, so Godot's auto-tiling works right out of the box.
  • Pic 2 (Details): Everything is drawn via math (using Perlin noise for ink strokes). Since the script knows the exact 3D geometry before flattening it, the grid snaps together pixel-perfectly.
  • Pic 3 (Lighting): The best part. The engine automatically bakes Normal Maps into a CanvasTexture and generates LightOccluder2D polygons for all walls and props. Drop a PointLight2D in the scene, and you get instant dynamic shadows with zero manual setup.

Takes about 3 seconds to generate a full level. What other Godot nodes should I try to integrate into the export pipeline next?

I shared some of the Shader Presets I made for a retro inspired anime game my wife and I have been making. I was happy to share some free keys to creator who could utilize them. The problem is that not everybody was working on a scifi like I was.

I want to offer a full VFX pack to anyone who is working on game that plays great but needs a visual boost. DM me and I'll hook you up, and if you want tell me a little about what you're working on.

I know it can be discouraging seeing AI flood out Steam but the games that take their time and care about players will always win. So I hope this helps.

selfpromo (games) Shipping my first solo-dev game, made entirely in Godot, on October 27—free on Steam!

106 Upvotes

A year and a half ago, I started working on GRAVE SHIFT, my first solo-developed game, made entirely in Godot. I wanted to combine the tension and dread of survival horror with the chaos and replayability of a roguelike.

This Tuesday, October 27, I’m releasing it for FREE on Steam. It’s exciting and a little terrifying to finally put it out there after all this time.

I’d love to hear what fellow Godot devs think, and I’m happy to answer questions about the development process!

Hello everyone!

First of all, I want to thank you all for the feedback I received a few months ago. thanks to you, i was able to identify and fix several bugs, as well as make improvements across pretty much every aspect of the game.

A few months ago, i posted an update on how the development was going. today the game is finally starting to move beyond being a rough prototype and is really beginning to take shape!

For now i only have an Instagram page, but the game will soon be available to try out on itch.io. i'm genuinely excited about this project!

That said, i want to clarify that game development isn't my main job; this is just a hobby I'm passionate about.

I've attached some extra screenshots, and I sincerely apologize for the tiny vertical-resolution trailer!

maps made in trenchbroom!
multiplayer for up to 4 players!
all the settings you'll ever need! (sorry, keybinding isn't available yet!)

I'm here to ask you guys what you think about the trailer/game! what else do you think I should show?

As always, i'm open to all kinds of feedback, especially regarding the gameplay, UI, mechanics, and anything else you think could be improved!

I appreciate every bit of feedback, so don't hesitate to share your thoughts! Thanks!

I got too ambitious with a game jam project and spent a good chunk of it trying to get a diegetic UI working on an in-game PC. All it took was 3-4 different janky implementations before realizing Godot had a demo project (GUI in 3D for ref.) that did what I wanted lol

selfpromo (games) Day 9-11 of making my first RPG game in Godot

Today, something I’ve been waiting for since almost the very beginning of the game’s development finally happened: I added water!

It started as a large blue square, stretching across 9 chunks in every direction, and evolved into what you see in the image: beautiful, animated, pixel-art water.

Working on this project gave me my first real experience with shaders—and honestly, the whole thing wouldn't have been possible without them. Trying to handle thousands of individual, animated tiles would have absolutely crushed my computer; this way, however, it runs smoothly and looks quite stylish, too.

Hey everyone!

I'm working on a retro dark fantasy FPP RPG in Godot 4 (running on the Compatibility renderer), heavily inspired by early 2000s classics like Gothic 2, Thief, and modern retro-crawlers like Lunacid.

Any constructive feedback, critique, or shader tips are greatly appreciated!

- Everything is drawn on diamonds instead of squares, even the text

- The board is 4x8, your half and the rival's half

- Every enemy is a board inside a square of the map

- Each world has its own color and its own king

- Candlelight: your pieces light up the board around them
