There was this one gun building game called Loadout that allowed you to build some whacky guns, sadly the servers got shut down a while ago, but seeing this video gives me hope there'll be a new game that allows for building whacky guns, since so far the gun crafting seems somewhat similar.

Interesting, I'd never heard of that one. The gun "building" seems more like just customizing slots though, I'm looking for more examples of actually designing weapons from the ground up. If you know of anything, please let know!

If realistic-ness is the bottom of the priority list, you could get absolutely insane with attachment concepts. You could pull a TABG and have a barrel that doubles any gun's existing barrel, barrels that add elemental properties, hell, maybe even movement based attachments like some sort of stock with a vent on the back that allows the player to dash, or an underbarrel that shoots a grappling hook. Super excited to see where this idea can go!

I think that a better choice would be renaming the 'chambers' to recievers, and then having magazines as separate attachments so that you can place them anywhere on the gun and also have different magazines for just one reciever. By the way, those recoil animations are really sick.

I remember once upon a time a game from years ago called Loadout, a wacky fun third-person multiplayer arena shooter where you could customize the gun parts, the projectile, and the payload. It had potential, but unfortunately it seems to have fallen to the wayside, overshadowed, and finally forgotten if not abandoned. Hopefully, this gets traction and becomes a damn good fun game. And I wish you good luck in your endeavor and looking forward to what you have in store for future mechanics. However, if you're taking suggestions: *_Make the bullets fun to shoot (aka, customizable themselves)._* Because a highly customizable gun is neat and all, but if all that customizing does is make the bullet go slightly faster or do a bit more damage... well it's rather basic. It'll just be every other movement-based shooter, which _are_ fun! Don't get me wrong! But the majority of those guns all boils down to "gun that shoots better" _(Realistic shooters, like Tarkov - another game with highly customizable guns - gets a pass since they're supposed to be realistic, and real bullets rarely change too drastically)._ So, if you're willing to take this stupid stranger's suggestion, I hope the customizing actually brings something unique and fun rather than just be a cool gimmick for gun nuts to fawn over. "ERMERGERSH! This stock reduces my recoil, and now it shoots better! And this scope has 16x on it, that makes me shoot better! HOOMAGUSH! This grip makes my character pull the trigger faster, and now it shoots better." Like, that's _nice,_ there's nothing wrong with that, absolutely none... _but_ it's a bit done and done, you know? Borderlands more or less have the same thing (excluding the wackier weapons) with their bajillion guns, but overall it boils down to: "this gun shoots better" (again, excluding the more esoteric weapons). Something like TF2 for example, follows that line of thought for the most part, but some of the weapons also add a different gimmick that naturally changes the playstyle, and with that it's not _just_ "this gun shoots better" it's "this gun may or may not shoot better, but its gimmick is quite useful and/or fun". Doom Eternal, another example, got a small but varied pool of weapons but each one does something different so it's not just "this gun shoots better" and instead it's "this gun shoots in a specific and useful way that works best against different specific enemies, and neither one is exactly better or worse... except maybe the BFG" *With all that being said!* I _am_ just a stupid stranger on the internet, and my opinion and ideas are valued lower than a rotting corpse, so you can just ignore all that and make the game how *_You_* want it, cause that's the most important part of game development, or any kind of passion project. I just wanted to offer my two cents on the matter, cause this so far looks fun to play (especially with the movement) and I want to ensure it lasts more than just a month once it's released. Again, I'm just a stupid stranger on the internet, I don't know your plans or your ideas, what you have in store, so whatever you have in your mind most likely would be far better than whatever drivel I've written out. Anyway, good luck with you, dude! Looking forward to what this turns out into.

@@jordanr5832 Hopefully, the dev goes all-out, and makes every part of the guns customizable, such as the bullets. Get esoteric with it, give your gun two triggers that allows you to fire two bullets of different properties. And speaking of the bullets, they really should be customisable. It'll make the game more unique than "just another gun builder" and I'd look forward to what the community can come up with. Somewhat of an inspiration, Rounds the game by Landfall, it does feature "now it shoots better" upgrades, but it also includes interesting ones like: Bouncing bullets, homing bullets, drill bullets, rocket bullets, even exponentially growing bullets. Hell, in real life there's some wacky bullets as well. Definitely esoteric, and some are just experimental if not made out of boredom, but there's uniqueness to it. Like a shotgun shell with flechettes. Customisable Gun + Customisable Bullets = Near Endless Possibilities.

I have a few ideas for attachments you could add: Laser sight: do i need to explain? Every game with gun customization has this Grenade launcher: it replaces the gun's barrel with a small grenade launcher which shoots grenades that explode on impact Silencer: since the game needs realism instead of completely making the gun silent is only makes it slightly less loud Huge mag: greatly increased the gun's ammo capacity

Your silencer idea is actually more realistic than just a dead silent gun.

This looks so cool man, you made the game feel so good in the prototyping stage, great job! Good luck working on it!

Reminds me a lot of Blacklight: Retribution, which was also a multiplayer PvP shooter, and you would choose a "receiver" which was how the gun functioned, and then put different parts on it to affect how it performs. It was essentially the same idea - build gun, that gun was your gun, and go in and blast others (among several other mechanics, but that was the core). Very much look forward to this, and will be keeping an eye on it. :)

loadout was ahead of its time. this looks amazing already!

Oh man, pleeease don't cancel this, this sounds like the perfect FPS game. I always loved adding attachments to my guns in CoD, but creating my own gun?! That's my dream FPS right there!

@@havnmartinbasically its pvp arena where every kill you get you gain $5 and with your money you can buy stuff in the shops. There’s weapons, attachments, and projectiles. Weapons are just the bases that have different affects, attachments are the main thing where depending on the weapon you can put on a certain amount, attachments can work together so like you could have a rocket that sends you up and a hook that pulls opponents towards you to send people flying, and projectiles can be put on certain weapons that give the shots certain properties. The goal is to use creativity to make the best and most fun weapons to destroy people with. There’s like fourty attachments that I’ve made so far and about five weapons and ten projectiles I think. I’ve also recently added a battle royale most where the winner gets $20 but it’s super glitchy and I haven’t worked on it in a while

Loved the concept!

One of the dream games that's been in my head is a Counter-Strike style game but instead of saving up money to buy guns, everyone starts with a base modular pistol that they build into different guns. I have adored the gun building concept since I played Loadout years ago.

Hey! Very cool game ideas, I especially like the visuals (big fan of tf2). Your reload animations look really fun and whacky, great job! I have just one suggestion for the bolt action: make the bolt slide further, give the hand some acceleration, and make the gun move backwards slightly as it is being pulled back. This will make it look like the bolt is bulky and heavy, making the gun feel alot more powerful. Combine this with alot of backwards kick to recoil and good sound design and you’ll have a sniper rifle that’s looks and feels, extremely powerful, as any good sniper should (this also works with pump action shotguns or any other gun to some extent). I also wouldn’t worry so much about realism, as the point of a game is to be fun, not to stick to reality perfectly, and I think your idea for a hidden mechanic is really interesting and has alot of potential. Good luck!

As a gunsmith (mostly amateur, but that's due to being poor not a lack of skill) I feel COMPELLED to butt in and at least try and show you how real-world mechanical principles can translate into gameplay. For example: The AR platform everyone knows is actually very unique internally. The bolt carrier group is twice the size needed for other guns to cycle, making it heavier but in an area you can control easier. The buffer tube uses an interesting physics quirk of springs to dampen the recoil at the cost of space. The buffer also can be swapped out for buffers of different weights, allowing you to adjust for a good balance between recoil control and how sensitive the gun is to certain kinds of ammo. Then there's the direct impingement system, which directs gas to a chamber between the bolt head and the carrier, turning the boltgroup into a piston. This has the distinct advantage of placing the force of the expanding gas directly behind the barrel, reducing recoil. Add on how an unmoving tube is better for barrel harmonics and accuracy, and it becomes the objectively best system for a DMR. A good chunk of real-world gun mechanics can be translated into gameplay. It'd require a ton of exaggeration on how certain parts affect certain things, but it'd work.

Love the idea and the artstyle, keep up the good work! Can't wait to see more! :)

Something to keep in mind is that while a thing may not perfectly resemble its real life counterpart, i.e: guns in your game that don't look like real guns, so long as the object functions in a realistic manner, within reason of course, then to hell with one to one adaptation. So long as you aren't intentionally cursing your weapons, it'll come out great. Game looks really fun!

dude this is actually sick

What could make this absurdly fun is the add round-by-round powerups like in rounds. If you mod rounds to pick past the original 5 cards, it gets crazy and is some of the most fun I've had gaming with friends. These powerups could be add-ons put on guns which can be switched out in between. Eg you have a special add on which gives you absurd damage but high recoil? Then edit your base gun to fit the powerup, etc. If a pvp game with more gun variation than Deep Rock Galactic and the powerup mechanics of rounds is ever released, I'd play it non-stop

Honestly, a game that is primarily focused around the guns being as modular as possible is basically a dream game for me. I just hope you intend to implement some kind of bot support because I prefer to play these kinds of games without that pressure to perform.

YES I NEED THIS---- I swear I was going to try to learn how to mod a game just to be able to do this type of stuff

This seems like an actual fun fps game with innovative mechanics! cant wait to see more gun parts, especially if they are super wacky. Also, remember that character control/movement skills improve the games fun factor when dealing with gunplay!

Looks great. Don't give up!

A lot of people are mentioning Loadout, but another game that had a lot of gun customization that was out around the same time was Blacklight: Retribution. The game was a grounded cyberpunk shooter, with its main gimmick being no minimap, but everyone got temporary wallhacks on command. It was not as wacky as Loadout, but it really allowed you to fine tune the weapon to exactly how you would like and how it would feel, like having a hard hitting slow firing assault rifle that was pinpoint accurate but would kick like a mule. The customization also extended to the player character, so you can customize the helmet to get different attributes, and have different body armor and different pants.

The shader is amaaaaazing,good job
