Solo Developing a Platform Fighter: Online Multiplayer

Back at it again my brethren and sistren; part 2 of my devlog series for Impound Rumble! Impound Rumble is the title of the platform fighter that I'm developing on my own for my senior capstone project. I have a lot planned and a lot more ideas to share; this is only the beginning :0 In this video I talk about some of the less appreciated parts of the game-development skill-building journey, I talk a lot about rollback netcode, Photon Quantum, and how I've gone about adding rollback to the project. In addition to some small artsy stuffs, I also show off a hitbox editor that I made to save myself a ton of time. Thanks for watching! All songs in this devlog were made by my composers.
