BRO HOW DO YOU KEEP MAKING EXACTLY WHAT I NEED IN THE PERFECT TIME! seriously i wanted to start working at the gui for my game and found this video, thx!

[kunkhh]

Thanks for releasing some of these a bit longer videos. I'll save it for when i pick the hobby up in a while again

[owenlloyd]

This is great and needs to become an 'official' tutorial, linked to by Godot. I would hazard a guess that the biggest reason people quit trying to use Godot is because they get so frustrated trying to understand this aspect of the engine. Point newcomers at this to get them into the zone! It is really good, really well done.

Recently ive been trying to learn more about game development stuff and your content has been extremely helpful and cohesive, Cant wait to see what other tutorials you make in the future.

[CodeAikawa]

I actually need this 🙏 thanks DevWorm.

My main goal for this year-end break is to create templates for platformer, RPG, and top-down games. This way, I’ll be prepared with ready-made templates for our game development course next semester (I’m a third-year Computer Science student) in case the instructor announces a theme for a game project.

[DKingsofall]

You are truly awesome. Thank you, bro! Love all your videos and tutorials. Can't wait to keep learning from a pro.

Really cool video. Oddly time appropriate too - just made a set of menus in Godot.

Except the only sensible thing I used was the NineRect, everything else was code. No auto placement, even centering/panning/zooming an automap was in code. The method with controls seems way better once you get your mind wrapped around it.

Best video I have seen yet for UI! You are a lifesaver keep it up!

[wacko_ako]

Just want to say thanks for all the help with godot i have created a working game that i am proud off you :D

[hungryOrb]

You validated my feelings in the first 20 seconds. Thanks.

[Mark-yyki]

Your videos are immensely helpful. I don't currently know how to link different aspects together as my coding experience is all single file procedural. But I'll get there one day.

[leiyu]

Thank you! I'm working on a software engineering subject project and this really help me so much
