I strongly believe every game should require pet-able animals by law. Bonus points for ones wearing cool sunglasses. 😎

Updated my #godot music player widget so you can minimise it and take up less screen space. Needs some animations but good enough for now.

Let me know if anyone is interested in a tutorial!

Been a hot minute as work got busy, but finally getting back to #gamedev. Game was feeling very dull without music, and of course rather than just adding some, I had to go and build a whole in-game widget to control it too...

The amount of times I’ve seen registrars take down massive legitimate websites no questions asked off the back of one report is wild.

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

This new day/calendar changer transition may be my pinnacle of developer art πŸ˜‚

The great thing about programmer art is it allows you make progress on the core systems and gameplay loop really quickly.

The downside as I’m now finding out is leaving the art until the latter stages makes effective early marketing really challenging…

Created a new tutorial for creating an in-game pixel art painting system in #godot. Quite proud of this one!

Some unused #pixelart assets for a game I’ll never finish. I still love the vibe, maybe I’ll revisit one day…

Don’t even remind me about music I’m currently pretending that’s not something I need to think about…

I’m so jealous of all the solo game devs who think β€˜god I have so much programming to do I wish I could just focus on art all day’.

Wanna swap? I have so much art to do and just wanna code all day! 😭

Thanks! Planning on throwing it in as a little unlockable easter egg. Really need to stop falling down these little rabbit holes…

Built a simple little in-game #pixelart painting system for my game in #godot. Any interest in a tutorial? πŸ‘€

Created a little tutorial for how to make the clock I showed in my last post. Hope it’s useful to somebody!

An accurate (sped-up) analogue clock in #Godot, needed to stretch my brain back to basic trig for those angle calculations!

Any concerns about license agreements aside - I have been loving the switch from #Unity to #Godot!
