Celeste VS godex

Aha, found it! They opened sourced the C# version https://github.com/NoelFB/Celeste/tree/master/Source/PICO-8

forget TDD when you make a game, you want fast iteration time at all cost, gameplay is king, if you can't nail it fast enough, you'll make a bad game that is not fun

it's all about the feeling

Celeste's player class: https://github.com/NoelFB/Celeste/blob/master/Source/Player/...

https://store.steampowered.com/app/504230/Celeste/

check this out! both the readme and maddy's article that's linked towards the bottom, as well as the player.cs source code that is included. might be some decent resources

Keep in mind, the Celeste player controller is one single file of 5400+ lines of code.

So Celeste devs are shit at planning and have very poor code https://github.com/NoelFB/Celeste/blob/master/Source/Player/Player.cs

Celeste's source code is available in github :D https://github.com/NoelFB/Celeste It's a LOT of code, but some stuff in there helped me out creating momentum mechanics for a project recently.

Look at Celeste's Player.cs. Incredible games can (and often do) ship with messy code. Also read the readme where they discuss how they both agree and disagrees with criticism their massive file's received (look up the thread in this sub for a lot of it).

They dropped the controller script for Celeste. 5400 lines of tuning and refining to get everything right. https://github.com/NoelFB/Celeste

There's actually a README now, that does say it's probably messier than it should be and includes more cutscene logic than it should.

I wonder if Godex[0] could be a fit for you. ECS based Godot, based on 3.x which has much more broad WebGL support.

There is usually a few steps how to deal with performance issues before reaching the conclusion "I need ECS", but if you need it then try https://github.com/GodotECS/godex

You might want to check out Godex. It is a Godot extension that introduces an entity/component system. It is not mature yet, but it is under development and seems promising. https://github.com/GodotECS/godex

However, the great thing about godot, is if you want a feature, like ECS, for example just add it yourself.

You can try the fork called Godex, it has ECS built into it and is a lot of fun to use in my opinion.

There is an ECS port for Godot named Godex, but it isn't hugely mature:

https://github.com/GodotECS/godex

I haven't used it, though I've been curious about it. As far as better options for ECS game engines go, I'd go with Bevy (personally), but you'll have to learn Rust (which I'm a proponent of anyway).

But both of these are still in "Beta", if that's even the proper term for their development cycle, at this point. They work, technically, but they could use some help, to my understanding.
