Ship
Godot platformer - FINAL DEVLOG!!!!! (actually this time)
I added and fixed a few things:
So, sadly the restarting after you win was too buggy and I couldn’t figure out how to fix it, so I removed it. I also re-balanced the ranking system, as it was way too easy to get the highest score, so now you need to beat the game in a minute and a half to get the ‘S’ ranking, which is a lot harder than the three minutes before. The timer also doesn’t reset anymore, because people could just keep resetting a level to get good at it and get a good score.
I added a bunch of sound effects, like:
- Teleporting
- Button presses
- Switch switching
- Win sounds (when you beat the game)
I also added a cooldown to the teleporting.
I also wrote my readme. So, I think I’m ready to ship!!!!
Godot platformer
Almost done!
I finished the start screen and added an end screen with art. I made a simple ranking system for the end screen that gives you a score from S, A, B, C, or D based off your time. You can also restart the game when you beat it.
I’m still working on getting the menu screen working on the 2nd run-through of the game.
(This will probably be my last or 2nd to last devlog)
Godot platformer
What I added:
- I added the 6th and (maybe) last level of my game
- I started adding wire trails to connect the button the the wall
- I added a simple menu screen (still working on it)
- I came up with a story for my game
- I added dots on the teleporters to show if the player or ball can teleport
- Made level 3 a bit easier
- Made art for level 3
The story:
You are the end of a golf club, and someone is playing golf with you, but they swing too fast and you go flying off! They go to get a new club, but you decide you have to take matters into your own hands, so you try to compete all the holes left in the course.
Godot platformer
What I added:
- I almost finished level 5
- I finished making the buttons!
- I finished the teleporters (and changed the mechanics of them)
- I made better looking waterfalls by using circles for the water instead of squares
- Added a switch to control the teleporters
- Made the switch’s art in affinity
- Added animations to the switch
What I changed the teleporters to do:
The teleporters now teleport the player and ball to the other teleporters. The teleporters can only teleport the player or the ball at once, so there is a switch that changes whether the player or ball can go through
Godot Platformer
What I added:
- I added a light Occluder in the level costumes to add shadows to the game
- I made a button (not fully working)
- I made button art in affinity
- I added (almost done!) a 3rd level
- I added disappearing platforms with animations of fading
- I almost got teleport gates to work (but then I broke them DX)
- I made teleporter art in (again) affinity
- Added normal maps to the button and teleporters, to make them look cool
- Added more point ligh2ds to things like the button and teleport gates to make them shiny without the players point light2d node
What the buttons are meant to do:
The buttons are a toggle for the disappearing and appearing platforms, so when the player or the ball enters the buttons collision shape, the level will disappear, and it will appear when the object comes off.
What the teleport gates are meant to do:
When the player stands in one, and the ball stands in the other, they switch places. I got the player and ball to teleport to each other’s places, but that eventually lead to them just teleporting when only one was touching one of the teleporters.

Better art!!!!!
What I did:
- Made golf ball art in affinity
- I added a normal map and lighting to make golf ball and the goal art look 3d-ish (with help from @Robodog81)
- I also updated a bit of the level art to look more realistic.
What I’m wanting to do next:
- Add teleport gates, when the player stands on one, and the ball goes on one, the player and the ball swap places.
- Grass, I want to make this a shader so I can animate it to the player’s and ball’s movement. I’ve been learning a bit of shader code in Godot, but I still need more experience.
Godot Platformer
What I’ve done
- I made 2 more levels
- Fixed a really annoying bug
- Fully resets the player’s animations on reset
- Made the player and ball spawn in set places for each level
- Made better particles
- A level transition for switching levels
What I’m planning on doing next is adding more levels, getting the transition more smooth, maybe adding teleport gates, and adding a menu :D (I’ll probably think of more things to add later)
A Godot platformer!
What I added/changed:
- I decided to make a shooter with a neon-glowy art style
- I redid the player and level art
- I added double jump
- I added smooth scrolling
- I added a smooth friction movement system
- I made it so you can fall off the map and get reset
- Made the player and level glow
This is my first game in Godot, so most of the code I had to search up how to do from a video or a website, but the art is made by me
