JC has pink and purple hair and is wearing sunglasses, a black sleeveless hoodie, and a silver necklace with a pizza charm on it. She is in front of a bunch of flowers that look like they are exploding out of her head. The sky is blue behind her.

This is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike! I’m JC, I’ve been a gamedev for 10+ years in AAA/indie, and I am currently lead producer and (NEWLY MINTED) COO at my studio, @twirlbound.com! I love making cool stuff with cool people, developing sustainable career paths, and of course yelling (lovingly) about Jira ✨

Made a Godot addon which enforces consistent, project-wide preview lighting with a custom light scene and environment resource. Also gives you *full* control over preview lighting! 💡

I made an addon for you.
Shader Line Previewer: A real-time variable inspector for Godot.

new Steam publisher page is lookin' nice!

Was frustrated with typical collision workflows, so I added a "pins" feature to my SyncedCollisionShape3D addon. If you wanna effortless generate/tweak convex hulls, grab it here: codeberg.org/MajorMcDoom/...

the anime sfx-making tool! It's called ANIMEVOX, in big letters up top. Then there's the controls: In vertical pairs: Left: Pitch Rise Rise speed Reverb Room size On the right: Wobble Speed Wobble Amount Tone Brightness Volume Next is a row of keys: Randomize - randomizes the sound parameters UNDO/ REDO - go back to parameters you liked Export Wav - self explanatory, it saves a copy of the latest sound to your hard drive. Then the fun buttons, with cute art styles: IMPACT, sparkle, beam, powerUP, PON, BOOM, slash, woosh Each produces a preset sound, which then goes through the fx chain. Hope you enjoy it!

I made a tool that makes retro anime sound effects. Meet AnimeVox!
I made it for a game, but it's free to use.

I'm using the forgotten (but popular in 80s japan) Schroeder reverb algo, and some wobble.

If you find it useful consider supporting me on itch :)

Thanks to the great work of a contributor, the long-requested Lookahead functionality is now available for 2D scenes.

Another key change is a refactor of Framed Follow 2D, which should make it a lot more reliable.

3D counterparts of both are in the works for a future release.

Super Shiori Sunshine v.1.1.5 is out now! ☀️

- Final level is finished (leaving the boss as is lmao)
- Bugfixes & QoL improvements

This might be the last version of the game for now while I think about its future.
Thanks for playing!

Okay that alone feels like it could be a cheatsheet on its own

New updates for my interactive guide about tweens!!!

Very excited about this one because it explains whats the deal with "if tween: tween.kill()"!

There are now 15+ fun pages that covers almost everything you need to truly understand #Godot tweens, for free!

A look behind the curtains (or behind the canopy? 😜).
The collision geometry is completely rigid. To fake the look of physical response, the shader just has a single radial wave that is reinitiated for every impact detected.
#GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

Added some automated physics generation for cloth canopies and gave them some poofy feedback effects. Uses just one rigid body - no soft body or cloth simulation.

I've updated my Discord server to make it more generalist.

Are you a solo developer or a small team working on indie game projects?

You're welcome :).

Can absolutely vouch for this pattern, especially for scripted events, one-offs, or experiments.

We tend to think of code as rigid, or having to be in systems, but this is an imagined restriction. Code can be so much more.

Sometimes "spaghetti" is the most suitable form!

Here's a look at how the mattress physics look using my debug view. A mattress is essentially a 3x5 grid of rigid bodies connected with joints to flex, and then stacked on another grid kinda like 2 pieces of bread, with springs between them for compression

Helldivers - Siege Mech - Cyborg Boss Theme - Metal Edition YouTube video by jlindgrenswe

The HELLDIVERS 1 composer released a metal version of the Cyborg Boss theme from the first game! youtu.be/GBPIyqsrkZ0

I like the direction of HD2's music but still miss how badass I felt when taking down 'borgs while listening to Johan Lindgren's work so this was a lovely treat 💖

Please just ask, it's in every dev's interest that we work together and share knowledge.
The few times I've gotten to help out folk with art or broader new dev questions it's always a delight to deal with people excited to make something.

It's insane how much better the game looks with light baking

Had the idea to process the same sound files for physical hits, and use it for fluid impact. It works absurdly well!
#GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

Finally figured it out, and OOF! It's because Godot's property setters aren't called if the property is left at the default value! This is a pretty common gotcha, so watch out!
#GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

How to have a productive day in game development:

1) Set an objective (hopefully not super urgent).
2) Start working on it and immediately notice critical issues.
3) Go down a rabbithole of uncovering & fixing other problems.
4) Oops, the day is over.
5) Hey, at least you got something done, right?

A tween cheatsheet for Godot, going over sequences, tweeners, transitions, eases, an example, killing tweens and other usefull methods

I'm officially going ✨part-time✨ to make more free interactive guides for Godot!!

You can support me on Patreon and get early access and cool rewards 😎

To celebrate, I made a free tween cheatsheet in 8 languages, available here:

Yes!! I missed the boat on the first one but my sister is getting this one.

I'm ready for my wild simulated soap dramas with the strangest plot twists

finally published this visual article on dithering (part 1)!

I had so much fun and learned a lot while making this. not only about dithering, but also about @threejs.org shaders.

as usual, animated with @animejs.com

enjoy!

✨Been working on a small tool called #EmoteLab. It lets you customize characters and turn them into animated emotes!
It’ll be launching soon, wishlist it if you’re interested💙
