This Enter The Gungeon documentary details the development of indie 2D bullet hell roguelike Enter The Gungeon and goes behind the scenes of its creation. Discover more about development studio Dodge Roll and its small team of creators. Brent Sodman, David Rubel and Dave Crooks were all working at Mythic Entertainment, until EA sold the whole company. Instead of going to another EA studio, the developers decided to start their own video game company and began working on Enter The Gungeon. The documentary also explores all the design decisions that Dodge Roll made and shows how the basic premise and gameplay was born in a single afternoon.
It also takes a close look at all the hurdles the team had to go through. The team only had a few weeks to create a first prototype and pitch it to publishers at E3. Additionally, the members of Dodge Roll took a huge risk and poured all their life savings into the game and decided against using Kickstarter. Furthermore, the developers had trouble implementing the right bullet hell mechanics and ended up creating their own version of BulletML, which is an open source bullet scripting system. Lastly, Dave Crooks shares some advice for aspiring indie developers and talks about what’s next for Dodge Roll.

    Video game production, as a whole, eats and chew up people. It's one of the most complex product that can be made, requiring all of its many complex components to be equally high-quality: art, programming, marketing, music, player education (tutorial and ramping player challenge), etc. etc.

    its often the story behind a lot of the best games ever made. Often times you will hear it was an accident, something that was under funded, barely made it to market, and didn't have the backing you would expect of an amazingly successful game. The original WarCraft and Blizzard studio's was like that, they even went through several different names and change in leadership, almost going broke in each exchange. I think its the interest in making something great and not having expectations to be held to, is often risky but also makes for the best games possible.

    This story was a blast to hear about! As someone who's played Gungeon since release day over 6 years ago, with 420 hours combined across PS4 and PC, I adore it. From the mechanics to the music (did I mention the theme song kicks ass?), the gunplay to the Gungeoneers, everything just goes so well together and it really shows. While tough for new players at first, once you get used to dodge rolling and weapons (and their rarities), you'll be blasting Bullet Kin like a pro (pun intended). Beating pasts is no easy feat (The Pilot's past was the hardest for me), and unlocking the secret characters (Bullet, Robot, Gunslinger and Paradox) takes time, but once you do it, the feeling of accomplishment washes over you and it's so good. It took me 3 years to get the Platinum trophy but damn it was worth it. I even have a t-shirt of the Advanced Gungeons and Dragon art, it's incredible. The community is amazing too, from the fanart to the animations. Thank you Dodge Roll Games for making one (bullet) hell of an experience for myself and others to dodge roll into. If you haven't bought this game, from the bottom of my heart, GET IT. Couch co-op with a buddy is great too. It's a perfect game in my eyes. Thank you so much for sharing the team's story with a wider audience, it means so much to everyone.

    I'm not surprised at all that it went so well for them. When you have such a clear and concise idea from the start work is so much easier. No matter what kind of project you're working on. And they definitely aced the difficult but fair, there is honestly only 1 or two rooms I can think of in the hundreds of hours of play, and probably close to a thousand of watching in the entire game that aren't completely fair, and doable with nothing but the starter gun with enough time and effort. They're such a prominent face in the indie sphere because they earned it with quality, hardwork, and great ideas. I truly hope whatever they come out with next they stick to their guns (no pun intended) and release something with just as much care and thoughtfulness put into it.

    Everytime I hear the opening music to enter the gungeon, I get chills. This game goes so much harder/deeper than it has any right to. The details are so finely crafted, to the point this game is on the level of much more serious games emotionally. I'd go so far as to say it's on par with MGS on the emotional level, and on any other level (gameplay, graphics, music) it meets or exceeds that very high bar. A masterpiece on every level, I love this game.

    I didn't make a comment initially from my first watch, but after having watched about a dozen videos and this channel being my main video entertainment source for the past week, I must say: the content you make is very, very good. And I hope you continue to experience the success that you've had with this video. I always find the titles interesting, even if they can be called clickbait-y, and the sponsors never bother me that much either. So keep doing what you do!!! It can be difficult making a cross-genre core audience, but the content is always so interesting that it *will* work. (Also, as a side note, though I always watch the videos themselves, I suspect a podcast format could be rather doable and reasonably successful? I'm sure that idea has been introduced many times to you, but nonetheless, I must say I would enjoy them.)

    Easily one of my favorite indie games. It’s so good that I’ll even go so far to say that it’s in my top ten favorite games of all-time. Dodge Roll knocked it out of the park with Gungeon. I’m excited to see what they’re working on as a follow up and if it’s even half as good as gungeon it would still be an incredible game. If anyone out there is curious about playing it and haven’t yet, I highly recommend it.

    It's crazy to think about that Devolver took a chance like they did on Dodge Roll. Out of money but sitting on an amazing premise with the will to make it happen, and then your publisher goes "Hey, here's the money you need to finish" Devolver knew they had a hot round in the chamber.

    Hey Glen, I don't know if you take suggestions for what you should cover here in the comment section, but I'd love to see you make a video on Vampire Surviros. It's amazing how this game no one expected no one expected to do much more than return the development cost blew up thanks to being legitimately interesting and having enough eyes on it early. The Dev team has been super communicative and transparent in their updates and honestly, I wish I had enough time to read them all because I find it super interesting. And that's where you come in!
