Abs-Orb

This is the eighth game I've made without using a tutorial. This game was made in 9 days after 0* failed attempts.

This is my entry for the Godot Wild Jam # 46! It's also my first 3D game! I teamed up with the talented Maxim Suvedi, who composed the music. You can find his work at: https://maximsuvedi.wixsite.com/portfolio

By making this I learned:

• How cameras work in 3d
• How Navigation and navmeshes work
• A bit about 3d physics materials
• That godot mouse capture doesn't work on browser (sorry!)
• The importance of inheritance (I copied and pasted a lot of code...)
• How to work with 3d meshes, especially csgshape operations (I used subtract to make the doorways!)
• What goes into level design (but I need a lot more practice with it)

Things I would have liked to do given more time

• Finish the game
• Make falling off place you back on the map with 1 less health rather instantly killing the player.
• Give each enemy a patrol path like I did the largest enemy instead of having them wander around randomly.
• If you're big enough when you eat the tiny enemies on the bottom floor of the right house, you actually get smaller. That's a glitch. I would fix that.
• Fix the camera so it doesn't go through walls.
• Add textures to all the meshes. Maybe a custom skybox too.
• I had an idea for a magic system at some point to fight back against the enemy orbs. That would have been cool.

*This is becoming a pattern. You might be able to tell that this game is also an unfinished attempt. This time, though, I get to blame the game jam time limit. If I had done my usual thing of retrying after my first failure, I think I could have made this game in the time limit. At least I learned a lot!
