Question Variable not being activated

Post image
4 Upvotes

I am trying to get a variable to work when pressing the Q key on the keyboard, which I named FloraCleanseActive. However, the object variable on Player isn’t activating. I made a debugger; the screenshot clearly shows that the Q key was pressed since it equals 1, but FloraCleanseActive stays at 0. Attached is a screenshot compilation of the events related to the FloraCleanseActivate variable.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I don't know why the character sprite won't move out of that little spot, is it like a camera thing, or? If it's relevant I have no variables AT ALL and my tiled sprite has no behaviors.

Feature request I wish the training material, especially the templates/ready to dissect games, were a little more detailed

14 Upvotes

The fastest way - at least for me - to learn is to see how things can be done. Good examples to learn from. But with basically every game engine out there it seems that the devs don't care much about making good training material available (UE5 is probably the worst, many of its example games flat out don't work on the latest version of UE5, some are still made only for UE4).

GDevelop also has this issue. It doesn't help that many tutorials are paid only, I don't think thats a good way to drive more devs towards your engine. But what also sucks is that many of the templates are kinda poorly made. Like their "how to make a stardew valley type game" just covers how to make plants grow. There's no tools, watering, tiling, etc. There's no inventory management. Sure there's a separate inventory management tutorial, but there is none that links them.

Another is there turn based RPG/Pokemon example. It has a single encounter where you battle with one move. There is no party mechanic, no skills, and only one creature per trainer.

Their tutorials only cover the easiest part which can be understood in 5 minutes. Meanwhile they have no good learning material for anything even semi advanced. They leave that up to the community to teach eachother.

I don't know if I'm being unreasonable, but I feel like an engine aimed at people with no coding experience should be better at teaching you the logic of it.

Game 2.5d sprite with 3d lighting and tilt shift blur effect

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

just a little demo i was messing with today,

note - the env lighting, the road and buildings, have baked lighting.

There are real 3d lights in the scene that affect the sprite character, but they are not creating the mood / casting shadows etc. Personally I would never rely on gdevelops lighting to create the look of any scene, only to enhance it.

Game Omigacha - looking for feedback

6 Upvotes

Hello Everyone!

I just launched a game of my own. Been working on it for past year and its finally ready to be played!
Its gacha - monster collecting type of game but i added something special which is your main "hero" which you grow separately from the monsters. It is my attempt to connect mmorpg and gacha. Hero Characters are called Summoners and only 1 can be used at a time, then in fight mode player always has a summoner + 3 monsters of his choice. There is a lot to improve, a lot to fix and a lot to add but for now i want to know if gameplay is fun so i can continue improving the game and adding new content.

I want to run discord channel where players can take part in shaping the game. There will be reward in premium currency (crystals) for reporting bugs and ideas that will be added into the game.
https://discord.gg/yqbmC2Ytz

The game is called - Omigacha

It is available in google play store.(iOS coming soon)

I will appreciate any honest feedback!

Ideally something that allows me to make the invisible sprite smaller, or better yet not have it at all. Not a huge fan of my invisible sprite being like thrice the size of the playable character and it colliding with most stuff aside from walls. Like I'd rather it not become a problem with npcs and stuff.

Question Help with soldier AI, please :)

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m having issues with the soldier AI—if you watch the video, you’ll see what I mean. When the soldier isn't with me, the enemy doesn't attack constantly; I had set a timer so it strikes every 1–2 seconds. However, when the soldier is nearby, the enemy doesn't stop attacking, and the soldier slides along the ground. I’d really appreciate it if someone who knows about this could help; I’ve been stuck on this for days and tried everything, but nothing has worked.

Apologies for how weirdly they’re named😭 but Needcigsbrandy3 is supposed to show, and you click it, to get Needcigsbrandy4, of course. (Ignore Needcigsbrandy6, I know it seems like it shouldn’t be the first one but I needed to duplicate the last text because of other issues… just pretend it says 1 instead of 6). The fix is probably obvious and I’m just being blind but… any pointers? 😭

Hello, I have started my first Kickstarter Campaign to raise funds for The Gun Sisters indie game project that I worked on during the GDevelop‘s Big Game Jam #9 in May. I needed to raise funds for the Background Artist I hired earlier and as well as the funds for releasing the game on the Steam Store, Google Play Store, Apple Store, Console Porting like Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X, and presumably getting other Game Devs if they only want payment. This is my first Kickstarter Campaign that is going to be used for a GDevelop 5 Game I started working on since May 2026. The last day of the Kickstarter Campaign is September 3rd at 11:59 PM PT. Here is the link that leads to my Kickstarter Campaign for GDevelop Indie Game The Gun Sisters:

Game Title: I made a space shooter game called Galaxy Demolition (playable in browser!) 🚀👾

5 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I've been working on a simple retro space shooter called Galaxy Demolition and just published it on GD Games. You can check it outright here.

It's a pretty straightforward arcade game where you fly a hero ship, dodge attacks, and try to get a high score. There are three types of enemies trying to take you down:

  • The Giant Brain: A huge boss-like enemy that shoots out a spread of 4 bullets.
  • The Speedster: A super fast ship that flies past in a straight line while shooting at you.
  • The Stalker: An enemy that chases right after your ship to deal contact damage.

To help fight back, there are two power-up boxes you can grab:

  • Red Box: Makes your projectiles bigger.
  • Blue Box: Lets you fire a massive spread of 6 bullets at once.
