Well let's see if this gif looks halfway decent! Work on the boss AND crt filter demo

A pixel-art image of a series of dark, underground rooms made of purple tile. In the bottom left, a blue dog stands next to a tan mole. The image is taken from a WIP video game, titled MYM'S SWORD.

A pixel-art image of a grassy clearing. In the centre of the image, a blue dog stands near a person that looks to have a piece of shrimp tempura for a head. The dog menaces the tempura-person with a golden sword. A signpost stands nearby. The image is taken from a WIP video game, titled MYM'S SWORD.

A pixel-art image of a cliff plateau, made of brown stone, with a tan brick wall intersecting it on the left. In the top centre of the image, a blue dog stands next to a milky white cat/rabbit. Two yellow balls of slime seem to be trying to scale the cliff below. The image is taken from a WIP video game, titled MYM'S SWORD.

Also posting some of the newer NPC designs I've been working on lately!

Okay this feels good rn

Some updated CRT screenshots

Also interesting that they can't go thru corridors! So you'll just have these little enclaves of lice...

I also think most independent artists are struggling rn, just because of the world we're operating in. So if I take a break for a day, that's not a bad thing! I just wish I was more motivated while I have free time to do work!!

Powerful feeling...

I've been trying to give myself grace for not constantly working on the game every single day; it's kinda tough!! My impulse is to constantly be trying to be productive, but that's a pretty surefire way to burn out, so taking time/days to just chill a little is good, I think.

I also had therapy earlier, so that may be why my brain is sorta pea soup. BUT!! 👆 Pasta Meal

Brain has been sorta pea soup today, so I haven't made any more rebinding progress, BUT I made delicious pasta meal

I think so. Last I heard he was in some kind of "Mario's World"....

the wizards in this world I'm building a long time ago decided that being corporeal was for losers and the weak. Having a tenuous grasp on reality and what makes you real is cool so you have to chug on all that magic. The less there you are the cooler and more powerful

So half the battle of doing rebindings comes down to telling the player what exactly the bindings ARE in the first place, and parsing the info that Godot spits out. Not fun! But manageable, with a little work.

For reference, the "Joypad Button" sections here are Godot's default descriptions of gamepad/controller inputs. Very long, and in some cases not overly helpful. For instance:

What is Joypad Motion on Axis 4, Joystick 2 X-Axis with a value of 1.0?

That's your Left Trigger button, pressed.

I've made some progress today, so I think I can sort it out on my own. Thank you though!

Okay, after a few hours of tinkering, I've finally figured out how to parse inputs and actually describe them in a readable/useful way for key rebinding, such that the strings aren't overly long or annoying. Hopefully it will work for my purposes; the actual rebinding should hopefully not be bad now

InputMap stuff I think. I can probably sort it out, just not today apparently 😵‍💫

I'm like, THIS close to just shipping the game without rebinds. I shouldn't, but I just. Hate it a lot

I'm like, half working on this, but my head is NOT in the game. Like, I just want to get this done, but I have no motivation whatsoever

Every time I must implement key rebinding, 10 years are shaved off my lifespan

I do not enjoy implementing key rebinding

do you see the vision
