  Make Pro 2d Games with Godot

  Open Source A-RPG Demo

This is the full source code with all the system produced for the [Make Professional 2d Games with Godot](https://gumroad.com/l/godot-tutorial-make-professional-2d-games) course.

This game demo tries to show good Godot programming practices to support a growing game project. It has multiple interlocking systems, the core gameplay loop in place, a boss encounter, an inventory and shop systems, user interface with nested menus...

## LICENSE ##



The entire source code is available under the MIT licence and everyone is welcome to [contribute](https://github.com/GDquest/make-pro-2d-games-with-godot/issues/)! Better art, gameplay improvements, code re-factoring, and more…



All the techniques I used to build this project are in our [intermediate-level Godot course on Gumroad](https://gumroad.com/gdquest). If you're interested in getting it, be aware it's not 100% step-by-step.



If you have requests for tutorials from elements of that game demo, please feel free to [ask on Twitter](https://twitter.com/NathanGDquest)! I will not redo what's in the course but I'll gladly make extra videos that would benefit everyone! 😄



This is our first open game on GDQuest. We are looking to build more Free games and game creation tools in the future. Be sure to [subscribe to our YouTube channel](http://youtube.com/c/gdquest) to know when that happens ☺



## Dependencies ##



The project runs in **Godot 3.1**.



## Features ##



Here's a list of the gameplay features and a few of the systems you will find in the demo



### Gameplay ###



- A player that can walk, jump, and do a three hit combo with a sword

- Two monsters with steering based movement

- Boss with 3 phases, drops random stacks of coins upon dying

- Items, and inventory, and a shop that will cover your basics for an RPG game



### Core systems ###



- LevelLoader, to load maps cleanly, keep the player's data around

- Save and load system

- Game node to handle pause and initialize the game at the start

- Shader to animate the transition between levels



### User interface ###



- An inventory menu and a shop menu where you can buy and sell items between two characters

- A pause menu with sound options

- A system to create life bars that hook onto monsters and follow them in the game world, but that are still managed by the UI system

- The animated player life bar (tutorial)

- Animated boss light bar that appears when the boss spans



### Visual effects ###



- Layered particle systems like explosions, bursting fire, rock sparkles, dust

- Beautiful noise-based fog thanks to [Gonkee](https://github.com/Gonkee/Gonkee-Fog-Shader)
