I've switched to running on a small cloud hosted VM. The alternative servers just are not great.

Great for Java Server, but you need x86 CPU for bedrock.

Thanks Danny!

Thank you 🙏

OK I know I'm late to this, but #StardewVally, just getting into it... Love it...

I don't know why I suffered for so many years with small low contrast cursors. It makes such a difference!

@bitmoji.bsky.social oh no! The new style Bitmoji are not my style at all. I loved the old ones.

How do I get my old ones back? I can't use the new ones, they are... Awful!

This is where I started a few weeks ago! Thank you @brackeys.com for this excellent tutorial. I completed it, and continued my learning by adding things on and slowly evolving it.

Having the assets pack to start me off made it so easy.

How to make a Video Game - Godot Beginner Tutorial YouTube video by Brackeys

The graphics are from a pack from the @brackeys.com tutorial. The tutorial is the base of the game, I finished that and then evolved it from there.

Thanks. I figured out my mistake and fixed it this time. But I'll take a look at the link and see what more I can learn.

I'm still very new to Godot so it's all learning right now!

Full Snack Knight by fullsnackgamer Learning to make games on byte at a time

A small #bugfix today, and my first time editing on my Mac Air laptop vs my Windows Desktop. I love for flexible #godot is!

I fixed the stutter on the movement of the small platform, now using _process instead of _physics_process.

Sounds like a great time to lean on the community and set-up some coffee chats to bounce ideas off your friendly tester friends.

Glad to hear you're getting on well apart from the lone tester challenge.

We should catch up Lee! It's been too long.

I'm up to all sorts of fun. Making games as a hobby, running new community events with MoT... Still working at Ada.

You?

How to program in Godot - GDScript Tutorial YouTube video by Brackeys

And this one about GD Script

youtu.be/e1zJS31tr88?...

How to make a Video Game - Godot Beginner Tutorial YouTube video by Brackeys

It's called Godot, it's a game engine with it's own language, GD Script that is similar to Python.

I followed these tutorials, it only took me about 3 hours to follow along, slowly.

I am, by job title, a Quality Engineer.

Before that, I have worked as a Test Engineer, Quality Manager and QA Engineer.

I do write code, but I've never had the role Developer.

I'm confident mine is not the only path into Quality Engineering, I know Dev's who would be great QEs.

Not all painters are artists, and not all artists paint. Some artists paint, and some painters make art.

People who do both, likely relate the two, and might miss that others do it differently.

Do, must all QEs first be Testers?

What if I asked, must all QEs, first be Devs?
