Eminem: *shaking in his chair.

Not a game dev but a newbie web dev and love to see other dev creative progress. Plus I am a fellow mountain loving canadian. Happy to support a local team. Looking forward to more updates on Atrio :)

Love your vlogs especially your jokes! Waiting for the next episode 💥

I'm very excited to follow the progress of this game and your art is terrific! It's great to see as this channel takes off, you deserve it! This is very much an inspiration for me as my work on a big game project and create videos about it as well. Thank you!

Great informative tutorial / devlog. Wonderful work Stephen! 🙂

Those are some nice-lookin' buildings you got there. Would be pretty cool to be able to see through them when you're behind one.

Okay, fall in love of your way to explain, good content and funny, love it

Loving the videos! Keep it up. ^^

Dude, I really like the way you create your contents 🤣🤣🤣, keep up the good work

im going to start working in my own isometric game in next month. This is gold information.

"With isometric it's not so simple" are words to live by. Currently doing experiments on isometric, all perspectives (eeh? eeeeh?) are welcome.

Loving your game and it's art style! For your shadow problem - because you're already using illustrator - you should be able to import your vector art into Blender, and extrude it to make the majority of those invisible assets. The more complex shapes might need a few edge loops and subdivisions - but I believe in you ;)

Fantastic video very useful 👍

Dudee this art style is looking dope 🔥

I'm just waiting for the game to come out so I'm watching these

When I saw the intro, I knew you were going to burst the bubble and say that Enter the Gungeon is "3D". My issues with it is it runs really slow on my old laptop. That's kinda how I discovered the game was secretly 3D. Also, I LOVE your videos so much! I want to hit that subscribe button 10 times for you!

Great vid!

I like the background music

This channel is sick

this is awesome bud

You could do the 2D complex shapes by setting points in space that are contacting the ground and determine weather the player is above or below the point on the y axis. Then just add a 2D box collider around it

Great tips! Currently making an isometric game for a school project. :D I was wondering, do you have that isometric reflection script? Would be a big help!

Hey, I love your videos! I really like isometric art. But I have a question. How do you know how to stretch and transform the shapes so that it'll look like how you want it to at the right angle?

Don't know much about game design, but it looks like you would start the shadow at the bottom-top right corner of the object. So you might have to build the objects off that point, and create a hit box using negatives. This probably sounds like jibberish, but this is the best I can do to explain it.

I cant wait to play atrio :)

Awesome stuff! You’re way of making these vlogs is really entertaining. Just wondering what monitors you’re using? I’ve been looking for a good vertical monitor but can’t find anything!

Please don't stop making these Vlogs!

the 3d models for shadows would work fine, just get pro builder or umodeller, you don't need to go high detail and crazy or any textures. you could wipe out blocks for shadows pretty rapidly

Sir please answer wich game-engine you should be use it, And please one video on how to get job in Microsoft complete information 🙏🙏🙏 thankyou #जयश्रीराम, #जयश्रीकृष्ण, #हरहरमहादेव

-Doctor: Male Video Game developer Shoe0nHead doesn't exist. Male Video Game developer Shoe0nHead:

Could you put in an lightmap static object, bake the lights, remove the object and still have a baked shadow?

Atrio sounds like a cool concept. Not sure about the animals-as-machine-parts thing. There could be a story angle that salvages it though. Btw, I'd be interested to know how you approach storytelling in your games.

What do u use to make game art

DAAAAAD

Wow, this seems like such a hassle! Working in 3D has served me well, so I think I’ll stick to my guns. Still a good watch, though

simple 3d objects for shadows would work until you try to do self shadowing with it (you'll get mistmaches between 3d object and 2d sprite if sprite is complex enough), so it kinda work but only for simple games, not complex custom tile sandboxes. for sorting problems there is one solution - SV_DEPTH output, but you should make depthmap for sprite somehow (and also custom shaders)

You should put this series into a playlist. KZfaq doesn't even recommend this on the part 2 video

Maybe too late but you could add low poly structures for complex shapes, really easy to do with blender

Okay so as your no.1 favourite fan I feel obligated to say something positive and encouraging. what can I do? I didn't give myself this position, you did. This is on you bro. So firstly, have you tried the built-in unity tilemap? THey've got a sweet auto sorting feature and you get the exact effect you're looking for with moving behind objects. It's pretty sweet. I tried it once then I scrapped the project cos it was a crap game. The other option you've highlighted yourself - 3d it up. So here's the thing, i think you're thinking that 3d art is much harder than you think. Seriously, for what you're trying to achieve you can do that so simple. It's just a case of uv a cube with your existing artwork. Happily can show you what I mean if you want... Love the workarounds you've come up with though! Next video pls.

oh i know a PT belt when i see one....

First of all ai love the art style but for the problems with your shadows I would probably recommend you to just use simple 3D boxes UV unwrap them and use your 2D art as a texture. You could even project the texture from your game camera onto the boxes and use your already existing sprites.

More devlogs faster pls 😄🤗

If you have all three sides of the object together, can't you write an add-on for say Blender and let it do the job of creating simple 3D object for you? Sure it's an extra step and probably you'd have to name all layers correctly in Illustrator and stuff but... you know... shadows.

Skip the first video just jump to 2:00

2.5D is just, bringing 2D problem to 3D and smash it together with 3D problem. not gonna lie but i also like the spacial feeling of isometric, tempted by the devil.

Why don’t you just use the Y coordinates and sort the layers based on the players and the objects y, if the player is above the bottom of the object in the Y axis then he should be behind.

Why can't you just put a collider just at the base of the object and sort the draw order by Y value?

So was your project unity 2d or 3d?

I saw you on ThePoinball's channel

i don't now why you aren't a millionair now

*dad?* *but dad left...*

I saw this video a few days ago, what the F*ck

would love to see more of ur game instead

I used it, still trying to make it work.

Holy shit this guy's wacky as hell

video starts at 3:00

I'm a bit confused how making the objects 3d is "out of the budget"... you don't exactly need to entirely model the objects and buildings with all their details. You already made the sides of the object before you skewed them to be isometric.... just make a 3d box and use those as textures? I'm not sure about Unity, but I know that other engines absolutely can use an isometric camera instead of one with perspective. If it's a stylistic choice, cool. But based on all your issues, it seems like using 2.5d for ALL these objects (not just some) is a real pain. especially when the game is technically 3D anyway, just with camera trickery. You can absolutely do 2.5d with 3D objects, using similar camera tricks.

Don't get, why you won't simply use flat shaded 3D cubes and use the sprites as textures on them. That shouldn't be too hard for anyone able to use Unity and saves you virtually all issues you had here and before.

Fifth view! And first comment.

you do realize there are plenty of free 2D game engines that does isometric better than unity right? since in them you are not faking isometric in a 3D engine. Isometric tileview comes built in with Godot and I think it does not fake it over 3D world. I prefer Heaps (Haxe) over other Engines because Haxe is alot like javascript and as a JS developer it comes naturally to me. But People seem to like Godot. Your content is fun to watch though I just don't get it why you are using Unity.

you're half asian?
