I was telling my friends about playing Jelly Car when I was little. Then I just happened to see Worlds being made and releasing in A MONTH! My childhood is back. Thank you!!!

literally same! I haven't played the original Jelly Car or Jelly Car 2 in AGES but I vaguely remember the dumb little cars I drew in JC2 because I was a goof also remember hearing a lot of that "wah-wahh" from falling or being stretched too much

you said you wouldn't get into technical details of how to do these things, but i would actually LOVE an in depth explanation video, i love learning the coding side of simulation and IMO it's the most difficult subject to find guides on besides topology. (as a layman)

This is an amazing video. You explain everything so well without getting crazy technical. Can't wait to play the game

Jelly car was one of my childhood games, I loved how fun and cute it was Thanks for reminding how great a game it was!

Thanks for making this video, it's exactly what I was hoping for! I'd been working on a little softbody toy but was having trouble with buckling. Your solution to that is just what I'm after, and you also showed that I was on the right track with my collisions, which makes me feel much more confident about that. I'll definitely be recommending this to anyone working on similar projects 🙌

JellyCar Worlds is a safe space for me among fun-physics platformers. See how it works is fascinating. Developing games myself and usually find "zen" in fun-physics ^_^

i cant believe i never hear ppl reminisce about this game. when I was a kid this was basically the only game you could get on the original iphone/ipod touch! everything else was like “beer glass simulator”. And this was back when the biggest mobile games were real games and not just addictive feed back loops that manipulated you into watching ads

The perfect fusion of *Gish* and *Elasto Mania*

I used to play Jelly Car 3 on my IPad 2. It was incredibly fun and very unique. So happy to see a modern sequel!

I remember playing the original jellycar on my iPod as a child over a decade ago, great to see you're still passionate about it. Great game and great video.

Yay! let me know what you think of the new one :)

my brain expanded 5 times while wathing this.

2:20 happens all the time, I find it really funny especially since real jelly does this too

KZread is finally starting to reccomend me the type of content I actually want to watch!

Looking at anything Jelly Car related is giving me such insane nostalgia- I legit thought this game was a dream, I need to go play it right now.

I love this, I had never considered the frame idea to maintain shapes! Brilliant ideas and brilliant presentation! How do you handle friction? I've been looking at verlet integration, and it turns out friction is quite difficult. Everything skates around...

I would imagine you make them both have a friction constant, calculate that as if It is a square on a flat plane, then you distribute the forces based on the ratio of the point’s average masses for that line.

As he said in other answers "I sort of gloss over it in the video, but the step where new velocities are calculated for the points in the collision step does in fact take friction into account. In my case I define materials, and then define material pairs that set the friction for that pair.".

That's amazing. So many things here that I think I could pull off with some patience. The soft body physics make the game much less predictable, which leaves little opportunity for getting bored.

It's rare to see such an original game full of unique 2d platforming ideas. Thank you for sharing how the game is made!

Really awesome video. Extremely rare to find someone who actually cares that the audience understands what they’re saying. Awesome visuals and explanations. Not overcomplicated at all. But you never talk about FRICTION!!!!! Pretty sure you left this out, I can’t imagine the wheels working the way they do without it

How do you manage to simulate the friction between two platform or the wheel and the ground, to push the car in one direction ? (very good explanation btw)

This is so cool! I used to play JellyCar 2 on Wii. Hard to believe that was over a decade ago. Back when I had no clue how game development worked.

This game gave my kids so much joy and just hearing the sound effects or music makes them laugh and smile. Now they are young adults pursuing education and careers.

Well yeah this is it, this inspired me to try build this, it's so well explained, this is just a functional document, where now i can do a tech document of how to implement this and try to build this. Thanks man, i have a super hard time getting inspired to do things because i suck at creating ideas, im the kind of programmer that do stuff that others tells me instead of creating stuff, and this is the perfect content for me

This video is incredible. It blew my mind quite a bit. Nice work!

This is so informative and inspiring! I've been learning game dev for 7 years. My ideas are overly ambitious, and I've realized I must build a custom physics engine to achieve my goals. Seeing how you invented one of my favorite mobile games is incredible. How you solved problems with creative solutions, cleverly show/explain the complex algorithms, and managed to stay humble through it all...I admire you 😤

That was really fascinating. I'm a programmer, but not a gamer or a game programmer, and I found this explanation really compelling.

I'm a physics student and thanks for your sharing. It's very helpful for us to understand rigidbody physics.

You made the jelly car games!!! They were amazing

As a beginner programmer, this helped so much for my physics engine I made! And the collision detection was also fairly simple unlike SAT algorithm.... Huge Thanks!

SAT imo is simpler for collision resolution though

I like hearing the first 2 seconds; "the Jelly Car" sounds sooo phonetic

What a great explanation of the system behind soft body simulation I'm currently busy making my own project and this video helped a lot. I actually bought the game to compare your simulation with mine. Thanks a lot.

I used to play this game as a kid. Nowadays, I do game modding, and I’m totally gonna use this for modding purposes!

I for one deserately want a video from the sound designer of jelly car because some guy standing right behind my shoulder softly making "blorp" and "pling!" Sounds is genius

Oh wow, this is actaully incredible. I had never heard of this game before, but I loved your super clear explination of how the game works. I hope you have huge success!

Your clever marketing plot has worked. I need to buy this! See you on Steam.

Really neat video! As a fellow developer myself I always love seeing cool videos showing techniques and logic other developers use and have used for their own projects. Some of these ideas are incredibly ingenious for fast softbody simulations, and could obviously be expanded to 3d as well, at the cost of extra calculations.

NO FUCKING WAY I THOUGHT THAT GAME WAS SOME KIND OF FEVER DREAM???? HOLY SHIT MAN THANK YOU FOR MAKEING A VIDEO OF IT IVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR IT FOR AGES!!!

I remember playing this when I was younger, it was already one of my favorite flash games. I've been waiting Worlds ever since !! I loved the demo, can't wait to play that

This is the video I would have needed all the years back when I was playing with exactly this kind of physics based doodles (using Processing). It is exactly the right amount of explanation with great visual cueing to give me back the itch of "I want to try this". I've never seen the actual game until now, btw. Need to check it out. Thanks for the video.

jelly car and jelly train was my childhood man

Wow! This game was part of my childhood, and now I am an amateur gamedev taking interest in computer physics simulations. This video was super insightful! 😊

This brings joy. Reminds me of Gish, i love that game.

Thank you so much for making this. Learned a lot!

I remember playing Jelly Car on my Wii a long time ago. I had no clue that there was a new game! I love physics simulations; they're so fun. It would also be nice if you added the macOS version on Steam.

Lovely. You make the complicated stuff sound so simple. Thank you, this was great!

Great game, great breakdown. Did wonder : how do you approach friction between your shapes? Would be cool to see your thinking there too. :)

I remember sitting in 2nd grade computer lab playing belly truck and my friend asked me what I was playing. This was one of my favorite games from my childhood.

absolute amazing video. i love how you used the debugs to visually explain everything. you even helped me with an solution to my rope physics.

This is a really cool video, Jelly Car is so nostalgic for me, being able to see how it works is awesome

I can’t wait for this to release, this game was my childhood lol

Awesome. Videos like these are so incredibly helpful, thank you!

Beautiful video! This is awesome. Probably the best soft body explanation out there. ❤️

This is such a good video! Thank you for taking the time making this! 🙏

Shape matching is quite popular with certain types of games. They will use it to make a ragdoll attempt to match an animated character for example.

Greatest way to discover a fun game: a devlog.

Wait... YOU'RE THE GAMEDEV OF JELLY CAR!?! I LOVE JELLY CAR! I still have the third Jelly Car game (Jelly Car 3) saved in my backup apps folder along with the save data backup!

Amazing! You might want to join the discord, we are trying to archive all the classic levels and you might have some! There is a link on my website for the discord

Ah yes, I remember playing this when it was still called JelloCar. Then a few years later everybody at my school started playing it on their iPods. I always wondered how it was implemented, so I was very excited to find this video on my KZread front page today. Great explanation! I had always assumed it was more complex, but it seems like you can get away with a lot of approximations in game physics. That explains how it managed to run in real time on low powered hardware. Before this, I thought it might be some kind of FEM system, but that would probably be too slow...

This video really makes me want to get more into game development. Fantastic vid, can’t wait for the full game’s release!

I played the original jelly car game so many years ago and loved it. I found you recently on TikTok. I was so excited for this game and I love these informational videos. I would honestly be even more interested in deep dives if you'd be willing to make them. I can't wait for the game to come out next month!

DEAR dude, I repeated everything you said, and it WORKS!!! thanks

Whoa, you are the original creator of JellyCar 1 Originally played it on iPhone 3G, it was one of my favorite games. Games back then were so much cooler, no ads, well optimized and not overwhelming. Just what smartphones needed. Too bad it's probably just nostalgia. Loved it anyway!

try out the new one and let me know if it's just nostalgia :P

Wow that takes me back a few years.

Incredible video. I used to play this game on the OG Ipod touch. You really explained everything clearly and concisely.

It's interesting that one of the failure cases for collision detection is actually a half-ass simulation of impalement. Thin object passes through broad side of another object if it moves quickly enough. Then collision still occurs keeping it in place

You delivered every thing in a digestible way that anyone with a good knowledge of codding can recreate it THANKS!!! for the video you earned a sub.

Thank you for your video! I played your game on PSP when I was a kid and I had so much fun!

wow... I did not expect that collisison detection method

Thank you for making the Jelly Car games!

What a cool breakdown. Some of these implementations are super clever!

I haven't thought about this game in years! What a great video!

Awesome video! I've been working on making a game where the character is a soft body, but only using Unity's 2D physics system and components. Glad that I ended up using a similar point-spring set up :D

This video quality is god tier. Thanks for making this.

Eliot sent me. Brilliant video, thanks so much.

amazing video! Love long videos like these.

What a blast from the past. Some of those levels were quite difficult.

Jelly car was the first app I ever downloaded on my iPod touch years and years ago

Such a great video. Love the visual explainers

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing!!

Really good examplanation and visuals. Thank you ❤

This is really nice! Thank you!

Super interesting! I'm curious, how did you do the conveyor belts? Do you actually move the point masses around or you hack the collision function and add a little tangent velocity to the final contact?

@WalaberEntertainment

the point masses on the conveyor belts are moving.

very good video and I learnt a lot! thanks, walaber! :)

This is a great explaination! Love it!

This is SO digestible, i love it!!

Omg I want to thank you for reminding me of this game from when I was a kid

Hello! Thank you so much! This video helped me a lot for my soft body simulation. soft body simulations are really fun topic. Gg on releasing jellycar worlds

Awesome video, great information and the game looks so fun I immediately bought it!

Wow, what an approachable look at what felt daunting to dive into at first! Also never would've thought about the technique you described for seeing if a point is inside of a shape or not, that feels clever. .u.

This was such a fantastic video, I'm very much a visual learner, but I'd have loved a long winded tutorial 😂. It gave me a lot to think about and I'm looking forward to trying a few techniques.

God, jelly car... how I miss this game

Thank you for sharing. Love the video and the game

Thanks man! Very interesting. My hands are now itching to write something visual.

Great video!! Thank you for sharing :)

This is really cool, thank you for this video

Great, great video! Thanks!!!

Great stuff. Makes me wanna try some soft body physics

Brilliant explanation, thanks for sharing

Probably the best advertisement for the game...yes, I bought it 😂

I loved jellycar on cool math games

10 out of 10 i love this it explainded it perfectly!!
