Making SPACE INVADERS in C++ - SFML Gamedev - Devlog

I tried to remake (and improve) the original Space Invaders game using C++ and SFML.

This is the last video of this year! And it's the longest video I've ever made on this channel! I sacrificed my sleep just so I could publish it before 2022. So please, if you enjoyed the video, hit the like button and subscribe for more content like this!


P.S. I just realized that I forgot to add destructible obstacles above the player. Ugh! I hate myself!

"We can fix this problem by deleting the project" is what I think at 3AM when my messy code has made everything horrible to work on and fix

Fun fact: in the original game the enemies weren't planned to move faster as you killed them, but because there was less calculation to do with less enemies, the computer started calculating their movement faster. But it worked really well, so it was left in as a feature.

Great video! Dont stop making videos. The quality is sooo good and they are so much fun to watch. You derserve a lot more subscribers!

This guy inspired me to get started with game development

4:30 Instead of asking yourself whether or not youre committing an unforgiable sin, I would call that return by value function an unforgivable sin.
Always return by reference if possible.

Sick man! I love your improvements to this game.

When you speak, I think to Gary from Final space.

Your videos are awesome! Thanks a lot for your work

Youtube recommended this to me! This channel really is a hidden gem!! I'm currently learning sfml and c++ myself. One question: for how long have you been programming or learning c++ and sfml? I'm wondering because I'm learning it myself. Thanks! And subscribed! :)

You make this with just code. Amazing.

i think its better to always just check the first element in the vector of bullets to see if its out of bounds, and if so then remove it.
this way you dont have to check the entire vector each time

your videos are so entertaining i had to be early when it came out

[netfri]

Have you heard of enums? its a useful feature, for example you can use an enum for the enemy type instead of unsigned char.
It makes the code more readable

It feels amazing to be a part of your video! ❤️

[growwithanshuman]

That was awesome keep it man, love c++

[yeppiidev]

Was waiting for this video, and now it's finally out! BTW you should also do a video where you use RayLib to make a 3D platformer game (?)

That moment when the project gets to "Make It Pretty" 🤩🤩🤩

I think it'd be better if you went into more detail about the less commonly known things, like how you drew animations or why you used std::clamp (I've never seen anyone else use it). But I'm dumb so maybe not

Hi, @Kofybrek, can you make an Angry Birds clone using C++, SFML and Box2D?

Please make a video to configure sfml on visual studio and use Cmake file on VS. Very thanks!!!!
