For the performance improvements : Lower the poly count of your models, enable gpu instancing in materials, mark object as static that are static ( no movement, no scaling, no animation), turn off shadows where not needed, pre bake the lighting on static objects. Hope this helps, amazing work. Also, if this doesn't help, your last option would be threading or using unity Jobs system.
Pinning this so I can find it easier lol. Also so other people can add on too
Wow that was really cool
Yes
Another tip: If you still want an object to cast shadows but don't need it to be affected by other shadows you can turn off recieve shadows which can significantly improve performance
@@CodyCantEatThis your back :)
It’s crazy how Cody has a more consistent upload schedule than Dani lol
lol ye
Dani is out for milk. He's never coming back.
I’m impressed by his upload consistently
dani needs to go buy milk
Dani went out for milk ashame he was last seen near orange juice gang territory
I thought this would be “I spent 1 year publishing my first game” but simply changing the words from “I” to “We” makes this journey feel so powerful, I’ve been here since the first video on this game, and I rewatched the videos at least 4 times.
I rewatched them like 1,000,000 times
I can't wait for this to become an amazing and relevant game around the gaming community
The fact that there are no barriers and you can explore along the race makes it quite interesting, its like an open space race
Speedrunners are about to break this game any way they could
They must be fallin
0:50
Looks amazing. I do have one idea for an achievement I think would be kinda funny: chill in the hot tub for a while and get first place. I know that sounds hard but maybe we can put some kind of small shortcut to make it still hard but not outright near impossible.
I like this idea, I'll bost this so Cody can see it
@@thinecyber_cat Thanks, just credit me.
@@Lukkak09 I don't need to, when you reply, it moves a comment higher, so I'm not remaking it, I'm making it go to the top, so here's another bost
Call it 'Make a Splash'
Name for the game: “Poly Party”
14:30
Rocket: High Altitude
Camera: Flashbang
Wrecking Ball: Big Knockback
Glad to see the update, all the animation and design updates look fantastic
We Spent Over 1 Year Updating Our First Game
Ideas for the power ups at the very end!
Box: An animation plays where the player puts the box over them whilst running, and then disappears to everyone else, and becoming translucent on the screen of that player, no idea for purpose, maybe you can push people.
Jet pack: Very fat but very short burst of speed, so you can easily over take someone directly in front of you
Jack in the box: Either you pop out of the ground next to a random player or it pops up, scaring a player and knocking them back
Chilli pepper: Already discussed in the video, speeeed
Camera: Basically just a child friendly flash bang, it will be taken out and clicked, making a bright light and stunning a nearby player
Wrecking ball: Hits the player, launching them forward in a wide arc
Fire extinguisher: Basically bullet bill from Mario kart, if a player is doing very badly, they get this power up and speed ahead, knocking away anyone they collide with
Some of these are right but some are wrong. I'm not gonna say which lol
Say, cody, why does it say captura de pantalla instead of screenshot???? Do you speak spanish???
@@SpholeYT I think one of the other devs might, at least that's what I think
@@CodyCantEatThisbox is definitely wrong right?
@@CodyCantEatThis hey well that means I got at least some of them right so I’ll take it
WOW!!! this is looking really good so far, i’m excited to see what’ll be added next :0 -big fan of the ominous cannon-
Tip: instead of having your walk cycle equate to the speed of the player, have the walk cycle go really fast then slow it down as a player speeds up. Then when the player is at a high speed, the walk cycle should speed up again, trust it looks way smoother.
This is genius 👏 🙌 👌
Just a suggestion but for the third branch of the museum I've seen a LED wall from a museum where all the investors and contributors to the museum were displayed in a pillar in some sort of a diagonal marquee. It be a really cool idea to see it as a giant board with some "Thank you for playing our game!" messages.
with like a disco/night club/concert theme at the end this would be sick
@@KyroPhobicyes lol
When Cody uploads, you know it’s going to be a good day.
very true
FACTS
Fax
FR, i'm literally feeling like i'm going to heaven
yessir
Dude you are in full production! So excited to see you persist, I’m sure it’s inspiring to many other game devs watching
You should make a game-mode with lava rising where instead of a race you have to survive the lava and each time it rises faster until there is only one player left
Omg this is amazing 👏 👏👏
finally a game that isnt small and only overhyped by being made by a popular youtuber, i actually want to play this
*stares blankly at Dani*
Why are my favorite RUclipsr returning. Yesterday it was Andiemetronic and now it's you.
Btw this game looks so incredible.
YOOOO FRRRRR
True
So true
And Sam o nella
I think you should do something with the kick up. If the character would fall from a very high place and falls down it would make some sense for the character to fall and then do a kick up but do what you guys want to do.
it does take a while for him to upload. but when he does he always comes out with a banger.
Real
Dude, I love how this game looks, everyone who has worked on this project has done an amazing job. Honestly amazing idea for a game!
owl house fan
@@hunterofwitchhunters610right?
gives me gang beasts vibes
@@MRSpice42 Gang beast except instead of beating people up by grabbing them and throwing them off the map your racing
thing being dani hasn't posted in a YEAR, he has alot of catching up to do
I think the wet floor sign needs a size increase since the maps are a bit big, but I gotta say for 4 developpers the progress is massive keep up the great work.
Power up ideas
-ghost guide: it spawns a ghost (he has the skin of the first place player but whitish to fit the theme) who run on the same way the first place play is on for 10 sec so you can keep on the fastest way.
-Ninja suit: it give the player invisibility and a speed boost with a dagger, if you backstab someone with it it gives them 5 seconds of slowness or stun.
-Faith rope: you stick someone with it what ever bad thing happens to you applies to that player.
-Goat: you ride a goat which has a fast speed but hard to change direction (bad with cliffs).
-Smoke bomb inside of the 4 directions are switch by 90° degree (up is left or right , right is up or down , depends on the rotation direction that you choose for programming it).
Hope this helps.
I loved the old video so much and was sad there was no updates, I watched it over and over. And finding that you are carrying on improving it makes me so happy! I love the game animations and layout
This is one of my favorite series to, forget about for awhile, then check in on again and be greeted with an actual GOOD video.
This game is becoming incredible!

This is amazing. I always wanted a game similar to Astro’s Playroom Time Trials. This looks like it’d be a lot of fun to keep replaying!
I literally can’t wait for it to come out! It looks amazing! :)
Wow, that hot-spring level looks AMAZING! The maps will certainly do a bit for people to stop comparing it to fall guys, as the maps are actual cool places instead of colourful blocks floating. I am SO excited to see more maps from this game, and especially play them! (some time in the future). You and your team have done INCREDIBLE work, good job.
Edit: One thing I'd suggest is adding more shortcuts to the levels if there aren't many already. I really love games with a ton of secrets and shortcuts, and it would go a long way to add variety to racing on the tracks and add way more re-playability.
We've added some shortcuts to some of the other levels. And even the hot springs level has some "shortcuts" that skilled players can take if they see it. I'll wait until the game is out though to let players try and discover them
@@CodyCantEatThis Whats the game name? I NEED TO KNOW
@@20thcenturygoji234 same like WHAT IS THE NAME!
@@ligagustava5936 it's not out yet still in development
@@ligagustava5936 Pretty sure the name at least for now is Multiplatformer
Oh boy! This game is starting to get more awesome! Go for it!
Also, the angel costume looks nice
This looks great. Awesome job!
Can't wait! I'm sure you could do so much more in a year.
Actually, keep the dodgeball. You could rework the mechanics so that it bounces off walls like a green shell from Mario Kart. You can scrap the aiming though, make it so you throw it in the direction you're facing.
Here’s an idea, maybe you can actually turn the museum, into the main menu? It could have a hallway to join an online game or something, a maintenance room for settings, or even a practice room to learn controls, items, moves, etc. Maybe in the gallery, you can see some personal records or costumes. The possibilities are endless! Also, I am now subscribed.
Sounds kind of like the Splatoon series hub worlds.
@@KeWDu I mean, plenty of games, especially back in the early 2000s, had menus where you can actually move around and interact with stuff. The idea is inspired by games like Splatoon, Super Mario Sunshine, Psychonauts, etc.
@@Eldrich09 Yup. 👍🏼
I like this idea. We were talking yesterday about something similar, and we'll probably have the museum connected to an even bigger hub world. So the museum can be accessed from the hub world, the same way you might go to another area to play online games. We still need to work out it more, but I think it sounds cool
@@CodyCantEatThisWell i dont
As somone who wants to learn game dev I love ur videos and have since I was young, you always get me exited about game dev all the time, thank you, love ur vids :D
Hey Cody! I was watching this video and you mentioned there being a problem with the FPS. What most games do with that problem is make objects that are farther away from the camera lower quality, and if they have animations the FPS of that animation is lowered also. I don't know how to program this, but I hope it helps!
I have a couple of ideas on the power ups.
-You should make the stun duration longer for every stunning power up because they seemed kind of weak. You should also make the wet floor thing bigger because it seemed weak too.
-This is just a visual change but it would be cool if there would be different falling animations when a missile or a bomb hits you depending on where it hits you. Because it looked weird when a missile hit the character from behind and the character fell backwards.
And keep up the good work! This game is gonna be amazing!
How did this not get loved
Underrated comment
@@CesyescoThank you :)
Cody, you've inspired me and i love ur vids! i recently started making models in roblox studio for my friend's game :)
I am now subscribe it looks great man! keep up the great work!
Cody I have an idea In the museum you could have your own little section to display the costumes that you have unlocked and maybe be able to share them with others so people can view the skins you have displayed? I would kind of take inspiration from Luigi’s mansion one like when you capture a ghost it will put them in a painting so you can go and view all of your progress. Great video btw
Edit: You could also make it so when you display them they each get like little stands where they could have them in different poses or have them in like the middle of the victory animation as one of the poses I think it would look well with some of the ones you showed in this video like the dragon spiting fire or the bee tuning from the bees?
😊
Ive been waiting so long for this. Im crying tears of joy. Thank you cody
Its not that deep cuz
@@randomdudewithdog it is
@@randomdudewithdog you're not that deep cuz
So hyped for this . I really like the personality of the game !
Awesome video, as always! I can't definitely count on your content to be worth the wait! Just as a recommendation, I'd love to see a video remaking Kirby's Dreamland / Adventure in 3d! Thanks! :D
Can't wait for the full release!
8:34 Look into occlusion culling - it seems like your game is rendering a lot of geometry that it doesn't need to. Unity has a built in solution for this, so that could help a lot (if you're not already doing this).
I tried occlusion culling once and it crashed while baking. I haven't tried it since then lol
I was waiting for this Yooo crazy reccomendation
So nice to see the progress on the game cant wait for the next update
I love how this game is made by four small people that many people don’t know about even though they are amazing at their work, keep up the great work, Cody.
I always freak out in happiness when I see a new video in this channel. They're always relaxing to watch and they make me forget the rest of the world. Keep up the great work!
It's so cool seeing this game come along!!! For the dodge ball I could almost see it being a more powerful item since it's harder to aim but you may have to change the type of item to have it make sense being so hard hitting. Maybe it can be a pie and if it hits the enemy then it will blind them like the blooper in Mario kart. Can't wait to play this game when it's out!!!
YESSIR A NEW VIDEO, it’s honestly crazy how the game has grown, and the amount of work the team has done for this game. I honestly don’t care how long it takes. Keep it up!
Maybe a way you could get an alternate costume is by finding it in a level. For example, you could find a queen bee costume (for the bee, BEElieve it or not) in the Tree Spring level just off to the side of the main track, like how at 8:00 you have the hot tub off to the side. It could be ordering other bees to do something and you get the costume in some way similar to how you get bonus characters in TABS, you look at it, or stand near it for 10 seconds and it glows until you get the costume.
Great vid, and best of luck developing your game.
Brah
The Item animations are so smooth! Well done, cody! ❤
I just watched all of your "my first game" videos and i just wanted to say that it's really cool to see you more confident now than back then
Finally a new video! This game keeps on getting better.
8:40 I think all you should do is mark the non-moving elements as static, that should fix most of it as can be seen by the Batches count
We've tried that and it helped somewhat but not completely
@@CodyCantEatThis Well also it can be seen that the polygon count goes from 200k to 5.0M, maybe LODs and occlusion culling could do something to disable stuff when it is not visible. I might be wrong tho, but hope it helps
Item Concept: incognito mask
when you put it on, it gives you an upside and a downside, the upside is that you have a chance of lagging through some obstacles and sometimes your ping has a chance of making you invincible to power-ups, the downside is you're SUPER laggy.
Powerup theories:
Cardboard Box: causes the user to become completely invisible for a certain duration. Weapons won’t target them and will instead hit the ahead player, and positions won’t update if someone overtakes them while it’s active.
Jack-in-the-box: Like the Wet Floor Sign, but larger, and explodes in a large radius either when a player comes close or after a certain amount of time.
Chilli Pepper: Initiates a fire trail behind the user for a certain duration, which hits anyone caught in it.
Jetpack: Allows free flight for as long as it’s active.
Wrecking Ball: When used, appears and swings backward, knocking back any opponents hit.
Fire Extinguisher: Similar to the Mario Kart Bullet Bill. The character will begin riding it and it’ll travel up the course either to your current usurper or just for a certain amount of time.
I like the dedication to this game, you and your team have been working on this for a while now. This game is looking amazing.
I think the frame drops are most likely due to the polygon amounts in the level, so perhaps split the models into chunks each one with varying levels of detail depending on how far away the player is and being culled out or something like that if it isnt visible to the player
no it absolutely isn't. art this simple should have virtually zero issues running with that amount. the real culprit is probably that the level was setup in unity instead of blender. in blender you could have all the separate meshes be a single object, which is way faster for calculating things like lighting. don't just make random guesses when you don't understand game development.
@MC buddy no need for u to go off on him like that, he made an assumption, not a statement "I think...". Learn to chill a bit
@@RR-rx2kq right but "thinking" out loud and saying the literal most obvious conclusion that has very clearly been thought of already helps literally no one except it makes him feel better - so really it was just him selfishly pretending like he had something to add
@MC I think you're just making assumptions about the guy at this point, also you sound more pretentious than husk. Making you seem like a basic reddit asshole.
Just gonna add this before you make any assumptions again, I never stated his answer was right or wrong, and I also never said anything negative about ur answer
@@Squidmoto3 geez man im just tryna help in some way, you dont need to be that rude.
i literally just like talking about games thats all im wanting to do. I don't need to be selfish and i want to genuinely learn game development stuff, so dont be so harsh on someone for stating the obvious, yes I know its the obvious, I don't know what else to say about it other than assuming and then pointing it out because I honestly half thought they werent sure what the issue was, instead of laying off on someone try you know, calmly telling them that the person making the game may have thought of it already instead of claiming that the guy saying so is selfish.
If I am being annoying, doing something that others would hate and someone points it out to me with really good reasoning I'll stop, or probably maybe would delete it in this case. If people really want me to delete this comment I will.
fun fact apples are healthier than meth
Wdym?
For the dodgeball Power up you can make the ball bounce in the walls until someone goes hit
This looks incredible!
Concept idea for the ball power up: you can allow the ball to follow a set track and have it bounce around basically adding a moving obstacle
Don’t worry guys, it’s almost gonna be 1 year ago which means we get the next video
Yay
I so excited for next month!
Insane bro looks good 👍👍
When the game is revealed,it is always perfect.
It’s looking Amazing!
Not bad man, keep up the great work!
Idea time:
About the idle animation you make a unique animation for each costume so that people can feel amazed at it
Hope you like
Sincerely: Hero Jared❤️
This is actually an amazing idea
Would love to see specific idle animations depending on which skin you’re wearing
I think the box powerup is like a weaker aura, you're invisible to the missile, the cloud, and other players but you can't damage other players and you don't get a speed boost
Great Game Bro. Keep Developing It. Hope it's a sucess
Luz actually is a gane developer comfirmed!!???
When Cody uploads, you know it’s going to be a good day
You stole the comment above you
Honestly, this game looks amazing! For someone who played Super Mario Kart as a kid and Crash Team Racing (Crash Bandicoot). This will probably be my main racing games. You should add some shortcuts like many games have. I really like speed running racing games. I'm a HUGE fan of the beach level. Especially, the Jellyfish area. This game look amazing! And, knowing that it's only FOUR PEOPLE on the team is just impressive. You four probably made a better game then a game that had an entire team. Such as, Epic Games, Mojang, Mediatonic, Sony Software Studios.
And, considering that. You could do much more in a year! I'm excited for what's in store for the game, and I'm definitely playing this for 3 hours a day...
(also I have a name for the game "GoRace").
Bro liked his own comment 💀
shoot i did now 😭🥺
"GoRace" is intresting for a name. I like it. It'll probably end up being named polygone, because he said thst was the best he can come up eith right now, snd the Playlist on his channel of sll these videos sbout his, the Playlist I'd named polygone, but I like GoRace
I have a couple ideas, the first one is for a power up idk if im the first one but it’s like a projectile that slows down anyone in range kinda like the rocket with a slow down effect, and the other is a home world kinda thing where you can go through a portal to the different levels
Cody as someone who wants to pursue game development, seeing that it takes this long to make games really shows the work that goes into these games! It's really good to see the realistic progress, anyway I love your videos, can't wait to play this game!
You should watch Jonas Tyroller he's a great game dev RUclipsr
Hello Cody. I just finished the video a few minutes ago, and I found an inconsistency with your level design. (This is something that other racing games such as Mario Kart does not have, and I found it in the level design of your Jungle/Hot Spring’s beginner level.) The inconsistency is that there is no sense of direction in your map levels.
Let me explain. In the minutes that you displayed your jungle level, I observed little to no indicators that urged the player to participate in a race. Now, this is not a problem for a specific type of players: These players like to explore the warm and cozy map at their own pace, paying attention to the surroundings, and forgetting about winning the race entirely. But unfortunately, you know that is not the type of game for those type of players. This is a race. They’re supposed to focus on the thrill of the race, and the race itself, instead of the decorations alongside the road.
What you’re lacking is visual feedback. When the player is absorbed in all of these finer details, they forget that they need to beat the race itself. In order to make them stay focused on the track, visual feedback is an absolute necessity. An arrow along the road, pointing to the finish line, may inspire one to move in that direction. A flaming wall chasing the player behind, slowly burning and following the track, may give players a sense of urgency to constantly move. Games like Mario Kart use direction and slopes to encourage behaviors like this: with some maps having you constantly descending or ascending, so you don’t lose focus on your movement. Your map does not have any of that. From my view, it is like when one leisurely explores a jungle hot spring.
I hope this advice helps.
So like Mount Wario from Mario Kart?
i cant wait to for the game to realease it looks amazing keep up good work
Keep going, Cody. I and everyone else believe in you and your team to get this done. And i know immediately where my money's going when he can be pre-ordered
5:36 yo the Luz profile pic
My man Cody was working so hard, the cops were searching for him. What a madlad.
amazing
Can’t wait for the next update, hopefully a release date this time but no pressure, the game looks awesome great job
That’s a lot of custom cosmetics! I see how it’s putting you behind schedule somewhat, but it shows you care and it looks like it will be a really fun and valuable game
WHEN WE NEED HIM THE MOST, HE RETURNS
Just an idea: for the levels you haven’t already completed, maybe you could add a secret path that is a quicker route to the finish line. I noticed that you guys were inspired a lot from MarioKart and remembered that every MarioKart track actually has a shortcut. most of them are small but neat. I don’t want you to have to go back into a level you already completed just to add this, but it would be a fun bonus for people willing to search in the already detailed levels. This game is looking great and cannot wait to see it finished!
In the finished level there is already a shortcut on the 2nd corner, the 2 mushrooms🤔but otherwise a lot more shortcuts would be cool 👍
@@Farello485 Thanks for the reply. it always makes me happy when people respond to comments like these. It really makes me feel like I did it for a reason, and you have my respect now. Thanks!
I can’t wait to play this when it come out!
Idea for characters: add back custom characters, but make it so it works like gang beasts. If you’ve never played that game, it has a button to click to make a custom character, and once it is done, the character is saved to your personal skins.
Also since you plan on making an in game shop, you should make it so you could buy more colors. Ex: white, brown, black, gold, silver, bronze, ruby, etc.
LETS GOOOOOO!!!! FINALLY
These turn animation left right while walking doesn't even got right in Wayfinder or Palia 💀
Powerups-
Cardboard box: Spawns on the nearest player and makes them slower(they waddle around)
Jack in the box: puts random player inside and they wait until it opens with them inside
Chili Pepper: gives speed boost and fire breath that bumps other players
Jet pack: player flies
Camera: when picture taken it blinds nearest player from the flash
Wrecking ball:spawns in front of nearest player and knocks them back a bit
Fire extinguisher: 1. Speed boost as player rides it 2. Blinds players when hit with smoke 3. Other players have to ride it backward
Guys, sorry for being a party pooper, but in the composer's video of soundtrack part 2 he says that this project is on an indefinite hiatus due to not enough funding and they probably won't be able to finish it or let alone release it. If you want to support, suggest tips or donate in Cody's Patron page. If you don't trust me go check out the video of part 2 of the soundtrack.
4 months until the next 1 year vid i hope
Probably not
I am really curious as to why almost all of the victory animations include negative scenarios for each costume. Being stung by bees, being trapped in jail, scared by a crow, etc. To me those almost come across as losing animations instead.
Me too!
For those waiting on an update on the game, the music producer for it (WRMHOLE) had said that it’s going to be put on an indefinite hiatus due to a lack of funding, and unfortunately has low chances of returning.
they need a crowdfunding campaign
You should add a part of the museum that’s a way for people to see the animations for like the characters
Where’s the next one it’s the next year
The video isn’t a year old yet 😅
Soon
Bro doesn’t even know how long a year is
Be patient don’t just expect the video to come out at the earliest time possible
I am invest in this game
2 more months to go....
That's what I was gonna say lol😂
Les go
