Pac-Man - #5 in 20 Games Challenge! Before starting the development of Pac-Man, I was unsure what it would be like to program my very first enemy AI behavior.

But with each ghost having a bit of … If you enjoyed this game, see our list of games similar to Pac-Man - #5 in the 20 Games Challenge!.

This next game brings the childhood nostalgia back - I remade Super Mario Bros. in Godot! This will also be a little birthday surprise for my mum. It was quite challenging to get the Koopa shell stomp to feel right in this one. Also I needed to decide what to put on TileMaps and what objects to keep in the scene. This project will be a nice base for future platformers with my own assets (something… If you enjoyed this game, see our list of games similar to Super Mario Bros - #6 in 20 Games Challenge!.

Frogger - #3 in 20 Games Challenge! Yet another Atari classic in the challenge! Given my online alias, Frogger was the inevitable choice to remake for my third game from the list of suggested titles. This time, I wanted to experiment with my own art style and visually distinguishing my version of Frogger more strongly from the original. I think I succeeded! Making Frogger was definitely alrea… If you enjoyed this game, see our list of games similar to Frogger - #3 in 20 Games Challenge!.

Asteroids- #4 in 20 Games Challenge! With Asteroids, I remade another Atari classic in Godot for the challenge! This time it turned out closer to the original visual style than with Frogger.

Breakout - #2 in 20 Games Challenge! My second game of the challenge was Breakout. It builds on Pong but at the same time expands on it in various ways. There's no opponent AI and instead you try to break all bricks to increase your score. The ball now bounces back from the blocks and increases in speed with each hit! Scalability is important in game design and while several code snippets from P… If you enjoyed this game, see our list of games similar to Breakout - #2 in 20 Games Challenge!.

Pong - #1 in 20 Games Challenge! Pong was a great start to familiarize myself with a new game engine like Godot as well as its scripting language GDScript. It's fun to see your ball bounce from the walls with normalized angels. I tried to make the enemy paddle AI to behave in a pretty challenging but not impossible way. Seeing the Godot icon on the paddles always makes me smile.
