thats was the exactly moment where I subscribe so yeah same

SAME lol. It sent me

Same lmao. That scene only made me subs him 😂😅

He earned my sub at this very point

Hydroculture pots often have water level indicators. Since we have repotted all of our plants into hydrocultures, their death reates because of of over- or underwatering have drastically improved :D This way you can even see how each plant has a different drinking style. Even the same plants (litarally, they are mother and children) drink so differently. One drinks slow and steady and the other just nothing until one day it has a massive thirst and empties all of the water at once. So yea, it is an amazing invention irl xD

relatively easy to do with an arduino and a moisture sensor, it's also fairly cheap, use an RGB led for feedback

When I was growing up in the 90s, we had pots with a low-tech version of that. The water goes in a reservoir in the bottom of the pot and soaks up a ribbon into the top. There's a captive bead on a post in the reservoir which floats.

@@terryriley6410 "relatively easy" shut up nerd

@@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist5 I've already put my trust in Jesus Christ ✝️🌿 I've been saved by Jesus for a long time. He's the True Vine, the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Thanks for evangelizing, go for more people's comments. That's what I do!

@@djlclopez128 wholesome comment

bro has no enemies

As an open source simp myself... I feel the same😢

@@RepentandbelieveinJesusChrist5go away

Cool idea!

I think it would be interesting if you could selectively breed and cross breed the plants

@@ShawcatDevI think you could also add some enemies too that could add more life.. like certain bugs that eat the plants and make them sick.. this could mean you could add fly trap plants to protect your plants as well. Another idea that you can do is add other npcs like irl people knocking over plants because people are clumsy

@@DeusExNihilo that is an even better idea!

@@MatchuB22 i love the bug+flytrap idea, not so much the people idea

3 years of godot here, and I agree as well. lol

At the start he said that he used Unity for the first 6 years of his game dev. This is the first video of his that I've seen so I have no idea how many years of game dev he's done total. Let's say he's spent 6 years on Unreal as well, that means he has 12 years of game dev experience. If you keep at it, I'm sure you'll be able to make games as good as or better than his! He just has more experience

@@chritical_ep thanks for the encouragement. I really appreciate it

@@RenderingUser this is so wholesome. Good luck on your gamedev man

Oh my gosh I didn't notice that! That's hilarious!!!

I couldn't kick the habit

​@@ShawcatDevwhich os you use generally?

Perfect;

I JUST started learning game development and started with Unity (on my 3rd day). Do you think I should stop and try Godot?

@@MrBoxingcrazysal That's a hard question to answer. Unity has some good things about it, but if you're doing 2D Godot blows it away in basically every aspect. Really there's no reason to use Unity. Here's an example to help answer your question. You want to place a sprite at a specific pixel coordinate. In unity you bash you head against the wall for hours trying to figure it out, in Godot you enter the location in the editor and it's there.

I've been using unity, but I decided I want to try something different. I downloaded game maker, Godot and unreal engine. Still have to try unreal, but I can't understand game maker and godot interfaces too well. Tips?

That's really good insight

> I'm jealous of programmers that can draw lol same

I am a programmer who can draw....but I can neither draw or program well. I'm working on both things though.

@@blackcitadel9 haha keep at it. I can program pretty well but cannot draw to save my life. (BUT I did many of sprites in latest game so I'm learning also)

I'm an artist who can't do programming and I'm also jealous

I'm like, at the same point than you are my dude T-T

story is nothing for games, it's the least important or usable aspect. players do stuff, not watch a story. figure out what the player does first or write a novel, film, etc instead.

@@terryriley6410 Story that serves the gameplay is bland. Gameplay that serves the story gives it narrative weight that people want. Runescape is a clicking simulator, but story and progression give those clicks meaning and fun even though you could just click your desktop. The two, story and gameplay, have to work together. And for the record I have the gameplay concepts as well, but they dont matter much if I havent the resources to get it made or make it myself.

@@CreativeExcusesGaming This is a bad take. Runescape has deep systems all balanced to give you a satisfying gameplay. It's fairly useless to say "X is a clicking game you could just click the desktop". It's as meaningful as saying every novel is just a bunch of letters and page turning, you could read the ABC printed thousands times on pages and have the same experience as reading Hamlet. Nope. It's cool if a game has good story that complements the gameplay. But games are about play first, not stories, which is why we talk about gameplay, not storytime. Sooner you realize that the better game you'll design, or the better medium you'll pick for your burning desire to express yourself. Don't bother learning to code and making games if what you really want is to tell stories. Just tell them.

@@terryriley6410 Gameplay is functionally a story telling (or story creating) tool. Stories are how humans make sense of and make meaning in the world. Runescape’s systems all feed a story and feeling of difficult, grindy progress and experience. The core gameplay loops are mostly the same, click and wait, or click on a rhythm. And yet it is a vastly different game than a game like geometry dash which is also essentially push a button and wait or push a button to a rhythm. It is the meaning behind the gameplay just like it is the meaning behind the words and letters in a novel that make it satisfying. A core gameplay loop is a core story of what you do, and why you do it. And finally, Im not sure what reviewers you watch but pretty much all of them talk about story AND gameplay. Games like The Last of Us, God of War, Final Fantasy, Baldur’s Gate, Stardew Valley, and so so so many more absolutely beloved games are all as much about their story as they are their gameplay. Story gives gameplay context and meaning which helps make gameplay satisfying and fun.
