Demo showcasing the use of components in the Godot game engine

Components demo

Demo in this video

Made by Tienne_k in the Godot game engine

Project structure:

• Player script is in res://Player/player.gd.

• Components are inside res://Components/.

• Game objects (crates, rocks, etc) are in res://Objects/.

• Main scene is res://Scenes/Levels/test_level.tscn.

  Some nodes in that scene have editor descriptions (editor_description property in the inspector); please be sure to read them to avoid some potential confusion

This is definitely not the best implementation, though.

Due to some coincidences of similar movement mechanics, the player... is technically pushable (i.e. has a PushableComponent)...

According to this implementation, the player is technically pushing themselves to move... Please don't copy this in your own projects, this was a mere coincidence lol.

If you're here because you're genuinely interested in learning this stuff, here are some exercises for you:

1. Make the trees pushable

2. Make it so the trees can only be pushed if no other objects are in the chain

   I.e. player pushing a rock, pushing a crate, pushing a tree wouldn't work; but the player pushing only a tree would

3. Make it so switches toggle whether specific crates are pushable or not
