00:00The new wave of VR movement involves swinging your arms to move, and playing as characters with no legs.

00:05See, when you're playing console games with a controller, everyone knows that to move your character around, it's the left joystick.

00:12Now, this new VR movement style has done the same thing for virtual reality.

00:16It's become the standard for every game, and it's the one thing my game does wrong.

00:21Ah! Ah! Oh, no!

00:24This is way too hard!

00:26Frick!

00:27You see, Schmackle's movement is unique for a few reasons.

00:30One, it takes place in a physics environment, and two, it's coded from scratch.

00:34Dude, do you know how to do this?

00:36But J-Man, VR movement code is open source! Why don't you use it?

00:40This movement uses raycasting, where the game predicts where you're going to land based off of your original jump.

00:46But, no external forces like objects or other players can affect you, meaning no physics.

00:51This also means that every frame, the game is calculating the position of the player.

00:55So, when you have more than 10 people in one server, it becomes way too much for the headset to handle.

01:00So, because Schmackle is a game for the community, I asked for your help.

01:07Hey, hey, hey!

01:08Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Schmackle Bounty.

01:11Your challenge is to create a physics-based locomotion system for VR from scratch.

01:16Your movement must have double jumping and climbing in order for you to be eligible to win.

01:21Whoever has the greatest coding skills will prevail and win the following items.

01:26$1,000 of cold hard cash, an in-game cosmetic, a role in my Discord server,

01:32and a shoutout for you and your personal projects on VR's largest social media platform,

01:37the J-Man Curly channel.

01:39You have one week.

01:42Hello? Are we back? Am I on?

01:44That's right, I set out a challenge for the community,

01:46and the best developers out there have an opportunity to have their work showcased to thousands of people,

01:51get millions of eyes on their projects and themselves,

01:55and to make a thousand buckaroos!

01:57So, I created a Discord server with all of the best VR developers I know, and they got cooking.

02:03We have four submissions, each one different from the last,

02:06and the winner will have their code bought out by Schmackle Team and implemented into the game.

02:11May the best dev win, starting with Alex Olivier.

02:16I started off by downloading the XR Interaction Toolkit and deleting all the parts I didn't need.

02:21Eventually, I had the basics of swinging down, and I hope I win the first Schmackle coding challenge.

02:25Alright, Alex, let's see what you got.

02:27I'm giving each movement code a score out of five. May the best coder win.

02:31What the- why do I have a ball on my... balls?

02:34Okay, right off the bat, I seem to have some bounciness going on.

02:37This is definitely bounciness.

02:39Schmovement for Schmackle.

02:41Oh, I fell through the map.

02:44Okay, so I guess this white ball is my body collider.

02:47I'm going up. Boom! Boom!

02:49American Ninja Warrior. Bow! Bow!

02:52Oh, frick. I gotta make it to the top, dude.

02:56The double-jump mechanic.

02:58Okay, I got it. Very interesting, bro.

03:00And you can climb with grips.

03:02Alright, not bad, we made it to the top.

03:04Alex has made an awesome game on the Metastore called Balloon Bats,

03:09where you fly and compete with your friends by popping balloons.

03:11Go check it out.

03:13But his movement didn't prepare me for the next one.

03:17So basically, to put this quick,

03:19if you have the main camera,

03:21you just want to put that in here,

03:23and then it'll go up in the direction of your head.

03:25And left controller is your controller,

03:27or the target, like anything that you want to put in local motion to follow.

03:29Marshmallow G-Tag.

03:31Let's see if you have what it takes.

03:33Okay, we got some bouncing and moving around over here.

03:35Okay, I don't know if you can tell,

03:37but this is a little trippy.

03:39But hey, I can wall-climb.

03:41The grip-climbing feature is not working currently.

03:43Oh, double-jump is.

03:45I'm gonna make it to the ceiling, bro.

03:47Break, dude.

03:49Okay, maybe this one won't work, brother.

03:51Marshmallow, you're a W, but this gets a 2 out of 5.

03:53Marshmallow GT is an aspiring YouTuber,

03:55so go drop him a sub for his effort.

03:57Because while this one didn't make it,

03:59our next contestant blew my mind.

04:03Now, this is what my locomotion currently is.

04:05Quite happy with what it turned out to be.

04:07You can do things like double-jump, grab stuff.

04:09There is a few little minor things,

04:11which might be a little bit off,

04:13but overall, I think it's pretty good.

04:15All right, next up is screen.

04:17I'm excited for this one, yo.

04:19Whoa, this one's HD, bro.

04:21Welcome to the test area.

04:23If you come across any bugs, let me know,

04:25and I'll try to find a solution as quick as possible.

04:27This one feels good, bro.

04:29Oh, this one feels really good, bro.

04:31I'm fast.

04:33Double-jump.

04:35Oh, and you can magnet-stick

04:37on the purple surfaces.

04:39Bro followed the instructions, and bro cooked.

04:41If I was a teacher, you would get an A-plus right now.

04:43I'm testing to see if the direction of my double-jump

04:45is the top of my head.

04:47Yeah, it is.

04:49I love how there's light on my hands, bro.

04:51That's so cool.

04:53We still got one more to test after this.

04:55Dude, this is freaking awesome.

04:57And we can throw cubes around.

04:59Now, kiss.

05:02This was insane,

05:04and it's exactly what the challenge was.

05:06Screen is working on a metagame called Fear Massive.

05:08It's awesome, and you should play it.

05:10So I have no idea how it's going

05:12to stand against our next contestant,

05:14Duck.

05:18This is what the code does.

05:20It does the code thing. You couldn't tell.

05:22This used to be multiplied by four instead of delta.

05:24It's a delta type.

05:26I don't know why.

05:28So we multiply this by extrapolation coefficient.

05:30The hands actually snap to the surface.

05:32Same thing whenever you pick up an object.

05:34Okay, so there's a sound for the jump.

05:36It's a fart, but you can change it.

05:40Okay, last but not least.

05:42Duck, it's time to prove your worth.

05:44Interesting. My hands are cubes.

05:46There's like a whole tunnel here.

05:48The double-jump.

05:50Okay. What is this?

05:52What does this do?

05:54I can stick to it.

05:56Did you really have to do a fart sound effect

05:58for each thing?

06:00Let's go in this corner here, bro.

06:02This feels like the back room.

06:04The lighting is mad nice here.

06:06Oh, you can pinch climb and stuff.

06:08Dude, there's objects.

06:10Alright, let's give this a shot.

06:12That was fun.

06:14Oh, what the frick?

06:16Oh, it's a lever.

06:18Oh, what the?

06:20Yo, they made a whole frickin' pulley system.

06:22Yo, what?

06:24I like the hands a lot.

06:27For now, you can subscribe to them

06:29and join their Discord.

06:31Guys, this year's VidCon is gonna be

06:33the biggest one ever.

06:35If you wanna come meet me or see me in person,

06:37book your tickets now using my link below.

06:39June 19th, Anaheim, California.

06:41Be there, bruh.

06:43Well, after a lot of playing

06:45and a lot of consideration,

06:47we have two winners.

06:49Screen and Duck.

06:51I wanted to support them both,

06:53and their code was so good,

06:55we implemented into Schmackle,

06:57which is now the hard part.

06:59We first started by implementing the code,

07:01which worked pretty well.

07:03Okay, looks good.

07:05Oh my gosh, this feels so much better.

07:07And we kept this cool lighting effect,

07:09but it's time to tweak.

07:11The movement was great,

07:13but not just right.

07:15So I asked Schmackle team to make a menu

07:17that lets me adjust values until it feels perfect.

07:19Settings. Ah, there we go.

07:21What if I turn speed to...

07:23Oh.

07:25Okay, and let's turn this

07:27to like one.

07:29No, I'm way too heavy.

07:31Yo, this is like sun gravity.

07:33And of course, what's new movement without a fire map

07:35to play in, bruh?

07:47Now we have one more thing to talk about,

07:49and that's Quest 2.

07:51As you can see, Schmackle has a ton of stuff

07:53that's changing, and with every change

07:55comes bugs and breaks.

07:57But psst, come here.

07:59It actually works on Quest 2.

08:01We're just finalizing everything so it's perfect for you to play.

08:03Hold on to your horses, because it's coming.

08:05Also, we have a brand new Schmackle creator,

08:07Justice Juke, so congrats to you, bro.

08:09I'm still commenting on as many Schmackle videos

08:11as humanly possible,

08:13so keep uploading.

08:15Guys, please leave an honest review for Schmackle

08:17on the Metastore, follow me on Instagram,

08:19and subscribe. Love you!
