- A short and dark atmospheric narrative (or should I say, little movie?).

The player faces many Kaiju as or and the last boss for this mode is, who is the hardest opponent. If he/she is able to defeat Zetton without using, there will be an alternate ending. If he/she plays it for the 2nd time in story mode there will be changes, but the final boss will still be Zetton.

Kaoamaru Kaiju Mac Os X
- The theme and the idea. Idea and concept came fast in my mind. In previous Jams I would waste more than 5 hours frustrated with the theme. Not this time.
- The main creature (Kaiju) concept.
- The process of modeling, texturing, rigging and animating the Kaiju in Blender was my favorite part of working in this Ludum Dare. I turned out exactly the way I wanted and I couldn't stop looking at it and playing around with the rig.
- The art style overall, PS1 / Half-Life like.
- Intro animation and scripted camera.
- Staying healthy (I slept early and woke up at 5:00am during all the 3 days of the Jam).
- Mood and atmosphere turned out great.
- Using Godot, because of how lightweight it is, but mostly specially, due to the AnimationPlayer.
- Controversly, using Godot was also a con. Unity Cinemachine would fit this project better. See below.
- Downloading some VSTs to play around in LMMS was a good choice, because with just little experiexperience in music making I managed to create the atmospheric music that I had in mind.
Lore Facts
- The name Kaoamaru came when I was making the meditation sounds, and then I kept repeating KAOA KAOA KAOA in my mind and I liked the rythm. Kaoamaru doesn't mean anything in real-life, afaik.
- In the meditation scene, the monks are saying the Buddhist Hearth Sutra, plus 2 phrases I created and plus KAOAMARU (which I enviosioned in tribal voices, but I failed to replicate that in LMMS, so I used a Choir Synth for the voice).
- I wrote around 100 lines of lore and story.
That's a lot of bones for a game jam
Little to no gameplay
Fps tutorial mac os. I planned 3 gameplay mechanics and stages, but I spent 1 full day doing the 3D art and the other day moving the camera and scripting the intro and ending animations.
When I finished those items, there wasn't time left for the gameplay, ironically. Ninja pizza girl (itch) mac os. So I prefered to do the music and pack the project, and consider it a short and dark narrative.
Even the art for the gameplay mechanics is done, but again, I focused too much time on the art. For example, there is a human model, fully rigged and animated that I made, but didn't use for lack of time. Also more island types such as factory, war, city, etc., which fit perfectly the lore, but I could put they in.
At least I love the final atmosphere in it, due to the mood of the art and music :)
Multiple endings stayed only on paper
Due to the previous items, I didn't manage to implement the multiple six endings that I planned. Plus an easter egg.
Tool hurdles and annoyances
Kaoamaru Kaiju Mac Os Pro
- Moving and rotating a camera in the Godot viewport to create scripted camera events and animations is a pain in the ass. Since the game has a lot of scripted camera action, this was my biggest struggle in the project, fighting with positioning the camera. Godot needs a way to control to camera like Blender, where you navigate in 1st person view and move with WASD (fly mode and walk mode).
- I found this old Github issue: https://github.com/godotengine/godot/issues/53 but nothing else is mentioned.
- Update: Align Transform With View does that. Thanks Rémi (Godot project manager) for the tip!

- When exporting to glTF 2.0 in Blender, the NLA Stack / Animation Actions get bugged and animations get lost when you have more than two animations.
- Godot tweening, easing, fade in and fade out.
- Better godot music and sound management and playback. Load music by code.
- Godot load and deal with resources dynamically: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/getting_started/step_by_step/resources.html.
- Blender NLA Stack, the correct usage of Action Stash and Push Down.
- Music and sound production, well, everything about it. Although I made multiple musics for the game, I kind of had no idea of what I was doing. As of this writing, it's been only 10 days since I started studying music and DAW software.
- Try to create a game with actual gameplay, think about something simpler
- Colaborate with someone else
