Goblin game thread!! 2026-01-04 16:12:25 (edited 2026-01-04 16:16:15)

To kick off the new year, I decided on making a thread for my little goblin game that's currently in progress


It's still in it's VERY very early stages, there's so much I have to do lol, but I finally got at least the rough movement working. I had to completely remake it in gotdot which was not NEARLY as bad as I thought it would be!! Crazy how the same stuff in pygame, stuff that took me a month or two to figure out, only took two hours in godot. But, it's just proof I made the right decision to switch


Anyway! Next immediate steps are creating an inventory system, picking up items, and interacting with stuff with e

For some reason my gif isn't working tho? Might have to see it here:

I’m not sure if you’re asking or making a joke based off the word goblet 😭 I’m not good with jokes sometimes

I'm in need of some FEEDBACK...!!!


Right now, the tilesets I made are just meant to be placeholders. I don't really like the pallet I came up with tbh. But I wanted some feedback on how it looks. Should I completely remake it like I intended? Or should I just spruce it up and change the colors around. I'm not sure if it looks ugly or not lol


Remake, or reuse + revamp?

The image compression makes it hard to judge the graphics, but you could mess around with the colors first than if you can't find a good palette, start over. I think maybe brightening the Goblette's palette could also help.


I also can't tell if the grass is lining up well with itself. Like I see a grid through it, but I'm not sure if thats actually there or thats the image compression playing tricks on my mind.

And in the end

Either the gobbo is too dark, or the background is too bright, but it clashes.

I think considering your style play with colors a lot, I'd definitely go for some more unconventional colors instead of bright green grass and brown dirt.

Looks pretty good to me. Maybe turn the brigtness of grass and trees down a few notches.


(The GIF might not work in the thread because there is a size limitation. If the file is too large, it will not run, I think I read at some time).

I really appreciate everyone for responding!! I didn’t want to spam reply so I’m making this reply instead


It’s looking like I either made the background too light, or the character too dark, which is not too bad of a fix! I was worried the actual assets like the grass just looked bad lol, that still might need a quick adjustment to make the grid less obvious


I'm gonna try to experiment around, maybe use more blues in my pallet but definitely make everything less saturated


Thank you everyone who took the time to respond! It helps me a ton!
