"Video games lie to you. This is not water" The ground is also often just a mesh with no volume, and some behavior that prevents you from falling through. The water is just as real as that. If Minecraft tells me that block is water, it's water. As long as it's implemented in a way that looks consistent with the rest of the world, there's no reason to label it a lie. Every game has the freedom to choose how realistic it's going to be. Expectations like "Water is only water if it looks and behaves identical to real-life" are really not fair. It's nice to see an effort of explaining certain mechanics under the hood of game engines, but labeling them "lies" really does not sit well with me.

The plural of vertex is not vertexes, its vertices. The craziest water lie I can think of is in the Build engine that games like Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior, and Blood used. That engine still wasn't fully 3D, but actually 2D info projected into a 3D simulation using digital witchcraft. So the way water worked was, unsurprisingly, super weird. One of the limitations of those old pseudo 3D engines was that you couldn't have a room above another room. Each sector could only have a single floor and ceiling height value. But these games had areas with what seemed like rooms over rooms. The way the did that was by placing the rooms next to each other in separate sectors, instead of above one another, and sneakily teleporting you between them. usually, climbing a staircase or riding an elevator would actually teleport the player, instead of simply connecting the areas like they seemed to. This allowed for more complicated level design than previous games like Doom were capable of, and even some real physics defying stuff too. And the way water worked was similar. When you were on the surface of a pool of water, you were actually simply standing on the floor of the sector. But it had special properties that made your character sit lower on it and bob up and down slightly to make it feel like you were chest deep in water. And to let you go underwater, when you hit crouch, you would actually teleport to the ceiling of a different sector that was the underwater area. This sector had more special properties like adding a blue filter to the screen, muffled the sound effects, and putting the player in a special flying mode that simulated swimming. And if you touched the ceiling again, it would teleport you back to the surface sector again. It sounds crazy, but especially in 1996, it was totally convincing.

Minecraft moment

This guy: underwater levels are stressful. OG Sonic: I'm here to give you PTSD.

Everything in videogame graphics is "lies" by this standard. Those people? They're hollow inside. They're balloons. Buildings? Also frequently hollow and empty inside. Air resistance? Wind? That definitely isn't being simulated. A human using a hand to pick up a coffee mug, and take a sip? Chances are all of that is pre-animated and none of it is left to physics, and if you want them to do something different with that mug, like pick it up with three fingers instead of two, shake it, dump it out, juggle with it, hang it from one finger, probably all animated. None of it is physics between the fingers and the mug. If I take my hand and grab my arm, you can visibly see my skin stretch, freckles moving towards where my arm is grabbed. My flesh also bulges a bit as it's pushed away from the grab spot. Unlike water I can't think of any games that even TRY to do any of that graphically. Maybe, maybe, if you're playing a very polished game the hand will exactly touch the arm without passing through. Honestly, game water seems pretty good by comparison. There's games where they let you interact with water in lots of ways and it all looks pretty reasonable. But can you name a game where they let you do anything you want with human hands and it looks good? Nearly every game is like "oh god, oh fuck, oh no, we're not doing that! Here's a list of animations you can have the hands play. NOTHING else!"

Put a transparent soft blue layer effect in your game while underwater or just reduce the red color chanel by deep. In real life, the red color cannot get deep in the water. That is why blue is the main color underwater.

One my biggest frustrations ever was that there was a game called Cryostasis. In their tech demo they displayed actual water physics (using PhysX) and while it still looked a bit weird (really thick discoloured and overly blue-hued goop), it did look like it could make for nice gameplay. At the time it was nice to see a developer try that approach. However, they took that out when they released the actual game and it just had some traditional "fake water", where all they kept was just "object floating physics" to keep boxes floating in water. But let's be clear: that's not water physics. At all. But here's the frustrating part. At the time I was active on several PC gamer forums and I warned other PC gamers that listen, the full game actually doesn't use that water physics compared to the tech demo. People who expected it to be as innovative as the tech demo would be very disappointed, because in the end they took water physics out of the game. And that's when pretty much not a single person there appreciated my warnings. The amount of hate from ignoramuses I got was incredible at the time because it seemed a lot of PC gamers either just watched the tech demo and didn't play the full game and thought I was wrong, or they were so convinced the game still had water physics (spoiler: it really doesn't) that they just went blind with rage because someone pointed out that, hey, it really doesn't. So yeah, developers not delivering on water/fluid physics is one thing, but explaining to people that there are hardly any games with water/fluid physics in existence is a different beat altogether.

I love how you did work on water, the result is really good. My question is why spend that time on underwater but not on post process and rendering on the surface? I mean the colors are flat, it's maybe cause you didn't work on it yet because you want to build more the world before rendering it? I don't know, don't want to be rude. But the world is really more beautiful down there then upthere :s sorry if it's hard to hear, it's only my opinion, it is your game, just giving my opinion. (Bad english sorry i'm french)

As someone new to the channel: Was I just tricked in to watching an (informative) 15 minute ad for "My Game"? I feels like it, (not a band thing), except without a name it's kinda wasted marketing potential.

7:17 there ARE underwater money cases though

this is the only entertaining devlog over 5 minutes that ive ever seen. i think its because you talk about a variety of games instead of just yours, which helps to show your entire process of taking elements from other games and putting them in your own. it also helps that your game looks fucking fun, so theres that.

Early versions of Skyrim didn't have the water splitview effect, so you could actually see what was under the water surface and all it's emptiness if you simply remained right at the surface layer where the camera splits... They eventually patched it, and I remember being impressed at how convincing the new effect looked. Because I got to see how it was BEFORE the effect, it made me appreciate how it looked AFTER.

Great video! Just two things though: First of all, the plural of vertex is vertices not vertexes. And second, the game at 6:04 is called Death Stranding, not Death Stranded. Just some minor nitpicking. Also your game looks super cute! And since you're adding fishing on brooms I'll wishlist it!

Its not water, its an actual object oriented abstract implementation of water based physics inside a bunch of code we call program and eventually rendered by a bunch of vec3's and values on the screen that are flowing over your motherboard at high speed around a bunch of chips and gold contacts and wires that creates the developer's insight about what does water looks like in his mind.

I mean, most of games really just make a zone, change the physics in that zone and add swimming animations when player is in that zone. That's how you can swim in the air in games like Mario Odyssey or Rayman 2 ... Honestly I thought that would be what the video is about. Not the 'we can render every particle of water, but we dont do that'

It's just colored pixels on a screen. None of it is real. This is as bad as the "fake frames" debate. They're all fake. It's not real.

0:36 I love that you have a clip from WadZee's overworld in the nether as an example for Minecraft, because there can be no liquid water in the Nether outside of cauldrons XD

"water plays an important part in your game" me who plays gmod maps with almost no water

14:00 What's the song called?

Underwater-broom-torpedo-fishing... Okay hear me out. What if you allow the player to "fly" their brooms underwater, maybe at lesser speed and mobility but it will give you a fairly unique underwater traversal mechanic. And if you have that... the next step is putting a harpoon on the end of the broom and chasing down those fish with it yourself. Pretty unique way to maybe spear some bigger/legendary fishies. Feel free to ignore my rambling.

Used to mess around building levels in Duke Nukem 3D (1996). You could dive and go underwater, but it was actually a silent teleportation. One room had a water “floor” and when you dove it would teleport you to a second room with the same shape and the game engine would add underwater effects. It was simple but very effective.

CS2's molotov just blew me away. It doesn' actually contain any virtual fluid, they only change the texture of the bottle based on which angle you look at the molotov. It was then when I realised that Giving you the impression of something behaivng a certain way is so much more effective (through graphics and performance) than actually coding that thing to behave like in real life.

This was a really good summary, I especially like the water splitview effect, I think, when it is missing, it really takes you out of the game, when I see the edge of the top water mesh, it doesn't matter, how good the sounds, water effects, etc. are, it basically shouts at me, that this is not water. I saw this first in Bioshock 2, there, when the room is filled with water, the edge of it looks amazing.

So fun that you took wave race as an example. It's been my favourite on N64! It blew me away back then!

The only thruth in video games is that lightbulbs in games use real electricity

Can somebody tell me what the song name at 7:39 is? It's setting my nostalgia off and I *know* I know it from something, but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is.

@@AIAdev Thanks!! Man, listening to a restored version of the song - wow, what a fucking banger. I don't think I ever appreciated how good this song was playing Super Mario Advance 2 (I never owned a SNES, but I played the heck out of that GBA remake)

If someone wants a real imitation of water, then why don't they need an imitation of air, because it also contains molecules, slightly less than in water.

1:44 what is that game called? i remember playing it a decade ago

Coming up: "How games lie to you about air", followed by "Games lie to you about rocks" and "Games lie to you about humans". Can't wait.

I love the editor ui for your traits component dude!

I remember planetside 2 taking a magrider into a lake finding out it was nothing more than a semi-transparent texture with no collision.

Best water I experienced in a game was Wildstar. It had variable current depending on the terrain it passed through.

first video of yours i've seen. does the game you show you're working on have a steam page or something like that i can follow?

Oh haha@@AIAdev Saw "wishlist: " in front and thought : yeah, that's normal. game devs also like to play games. if i made games, i'd use the money i'd make to play other people's games (cause by that point, i'd probably be sick of playtesting my own game. lol) so i thought "wishlist" meant....here's the stuff you're looking forward to playing when you have some free time and all the money is rollin' in hahaha. :D

7:48 where is this sound effect from????

0:53 from what game is that submarine?
