an outline shader to the gun pickups and player models it makes them easier to see on all stages but the shader is absolutely necessary on the outro in stages thanks to the dark colors which make the darker player colors and guns very hard to see but before i get to any of that i just want to talk about how i plan on making money off the game so i'm releasing the game for free on steam be sure to wishlist by the way but how do i plan to make any money off of it since it's free well first off money is not my main objective with this game the primary purpose of making it was for me to learn how to properly make games and to actually release a long-term project but the secondary objective was to get as many people to play it as possible if i release it for free on steam and there's a decent chance that steam will push the game to people and i'll be able to get lots of people playing the game which is what i really want but to be up front i do plan on trying to make money off this game by using a patreon and that's why i'm announcing this patreon right now i feel like patreons are a good model for game developers like me who make lots of smaller projects i don't really want to restrict who can play my games that much so instead having people who really like my games and possibly want some extra perks support me it would be nice if you support the patreon i plan on providing four main things the main one of course is access to the most recent couch combat betas the ones that are on hio right now have not been updated in a long time for several reasons and if you join the patreon then i will give you access to a version that i finished just a day before releasing this video the game isn't in a complete state obviously it is a beta but if you support i'll give you access to a beta and then you can also give me feedback and help save the future of the game the second benefit is that you get access to all the source code for every single game jam that i've ever done that i still have the project files for this includes stuff like my attack on titan movement system and my unity minecraft engine you are free to use code from these in your projects though i would like if you credited me the third benefit is that i plan on having exclusive events on the patreon with the first one being a game jam where patreon members directly control the themes restrictions and twists which i'm excited to do finally you can also get a discord role and access to exclusive channels on my server which is cool i guess but that's it for the patreon support it if you want but just watching this video is already pretty helpful now that all the main issues within the actual game were resolved i decided it was time to finish up all the content i want for release so far most of the weapons in the game have been somewhat tame the only really unique one is a grenade launcher and the grenade launcher is by far my favorite weapon so i'm going to try to make another interesting one the idea is basically a super shotgun but it has hard to control knockback on both the player shooting it and the one being shot but you can also shotgun jump and use it for
START_SPONSOR_TOKEN patreon and that's why i'm announcing this patreon right now i feel like patreons are a good model for game developers like me who make lots of smaller projects i don't really want to restrict who can play my games that much so instead having people who really like my games and possibly want some extra perks support me it would be nice if you support the patreon i plan on providing four main things the main one of course is access to the most recent couch combat betas the ones that are on hio right now have not been updated in a long time for several reasons and if you join the patreon then i will give you access to a version that i finished just a day before releasing this video the game isn't in a complete state obviously it is a beta but if you support i'll give you access to a beta and then you can also give me feedback and help save the future of the game the second benefit is that you get access to all the source code for every single game jam that i've ever done that i still have the project files for this includes stuff like my attack on titan movement system and my unity minecraft engine you are free to use code from these in your projects though i would like if you credited me the third benefit is that i plan on having exclusive events on the patreon with the first one being a game jam where patreon members directly control the themes restrictions and twists which i'm excited to do finally you can also get a discord role and access to exclusive channels on my server which is cool i guess but that's it for the patreon support it if you want but just watching this video is already pretty helpful now that END_SPONSOR_TOKEN
