Made in Fall 2023, after the Unity controversy I picked up Godot and challenged myself to make a 3D platformer in one week. I did all of it solo: graphics, modeling, sculpting, painting, animation, programming.
It did pretty well on itch.io, 150+ views, 10+ downloads, and even a few donations shortly after launching on a fresh account. I got feedback from the community about the orbit controls and released an update that people seemed happy with.
On top of releasing the game I also gave four lectures at my university teaching students game-dev fundamentals through making small 2D and 3D games. A few of them kept building on what they made there and ended up with more complex projects after the workshop ended.
Game is up at xladn0.itch.io/retrovision.
