Janez 507 Posted January 4 Quote Your road, your story A hardcore single-player survival game set in a post-apocalyptic border zone. Right, so reading that short description from their website above may very well have some of you rolling your eyes. Really, another one of those? Yet another survival game? I'd think that too reading just that but no, not quite. The reason for conjuring this post is that this project is developed by pretty much one guy and he recently managed to port the whole thing, in it's entirety, from Unity to Godot game engine due to recent fiasco Unity leadership prompted. As some of you may know, Godot is a free and open source game engine and the fact that this guy managed to port his entire project to it sets a very positive precedent worthy of respect in my book. You can do your own research on Road to Vostok and it's developer, his beginnings and inspirations, how he documented his work, Unity jeopardizing thousands of developers on account of their whims or Godot engine project. I leave you with some links and a few opinion pieces from some of more prominent YouTubers in this field. Take care, have a content and peaceful 2024.

krzychuzokecia 700 Posted February 3 Just played the current, "Godot powered", demo of RtV. Apparently people think it looks like crap, but I'm thinking the opposite - the game looks better than previous Steam demo running on Unity. However, I noticed that a lot of gameplay mechanics ain't there (like PIP scopes, or even simple variable zoom optics - overall the gun interaction and feel seems rather basic when compared to what I remember from Unity version), and the UI is atrocious, with way too small, practically unreadable font and icons. Still, it's a long way (long road to Vostok?) before the game will be feature-complete, so I guess it's going to get fixed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
