Monodrifter - Nutcracker Edition

This is Monodrifter - Nutcracker Edition and our entry to the Boss Rush Jam 2025!

You have landed with your Monowheel on a supposedly abandoned junkyard. Unfortunately for you, it's Mr. NutZ territory and he's not very happy about this disturbance! Confront him or die. Now drive!

Long Description

Long text is boring, just play the game!

Theme

The following theme were defined for the Boss Rush Jam 2025:

• Spin

which can be found in the game as follows:

• You're driving a Monowheel that's the definition of spinning... doh!
• Sometimes Mr. NutZ's DeepSh** AI Core is making him Spin like a Lunatic. It's of course a feature!
• Your Guns spin like there is no tomorrow. Unfortunately for you, you cannot see them doing their thing.

How to Play

Well, just start the the Game and you will see!

IMPORTANT: If you can, please download one of the Executables as the Godot Web build has some major frame lag issues at the beginning of the game (AudioPlayer related...) and also some Effects might be messed up. The frame lags will vanish after the first couple seconds of game play but they are still quite annoying.. sorry for that.

Credits

• My girlfriend Rieke for supporting me along the way. Love you very much! ❤️
• My good friend Lutz Großhennig for helping me out big time! His Spinnruss Boss Rush Jam Entry is really well done! Be sure to give it a try and a like 🙏

What went good

• Godot v4.4 Beta1 is a blessing.
• We had initial another Idea, but the Theme wrecked it... so I came up with this idea as I had it prototyped in the past and thought it would fit the Theme rather well. And it does, now does it? It was a blast to work on. We consider continue working on it, depending what the feedback will be like.

What went not so good

• Godot v4.4 Beta1 is a curse.
• Initial Frame lags. Reason unknown. Possible a Godot Audio pre-cache problem.
• Internal Team / Time problems

Bugs & Issues

• You bet 😉
