Hi! I mostly work on games for game jams and some other misc projects in my free time as well as stream gamedev on twitch.

Links: https://me.programming.dev/@Ategon
This weeks stream schedule! Only 2 streams this week but there should be more next week. Will be playing games from the #honestjam and then will be doing some work on the slime system

The stream schedule for this week! This week is mostly progress on a game for the #honestjam and then a run through Replicat by @brainoid.bsky.social (featuring votes where you can toggle various shaders to mess with me. e.g. turning the screen into a dvd logo that bounces around)

Stream schedule for the week! Going to start to try to make these weekly.

This week's Friday stream features Field of Heroes by @gamieon.com and Sea Beckons by @xpmonster.bsky.social

Field of Heroes is a 5v5 soccer game so I will have a lobby open for anyone to join in and play as well

Uploaded Floodworks to Newgrounds in addition to it being on itch. Gives another spot to play the game when itch has downtime or for people that prefer Newgrounds. Should be doing the same for all future post jam updates I make

Made some updates to my personal site to make it a landing page with all of my socials so I can start linking it everywhere as the main call to action instead of having various links.

Includes links to platforms related to my gamedev, music, and game videos.

Changes are mostly misc QoL things that were requested such as camera panning, an indicator for when theres an issue with a building, the ability to destroy buildings, etc.

Pushed an updated version of one of the jam games I made last year. Its a game where you need to build up a city to produce enough food and water for your population as the water levels are rising and flooding your city.

Working on some post jam builds for various jam games I made to clear out my backlog before I start working on new projects. Should be getting my first updated one out this week and here's an updated thumbnail I made for it

Did some work to add achievements to the d2jam site. Had them in before the jam and just pushed a couple more changes to improve the visuals.

They work by players self reporting completion and based on the amount of people that have gotten an achievement it is assigned a rarity.

Been working on some more features for d2jam.com. Ill be doing some posts showing off new features I added to the site in the lead up to the jam (which starts Sep 5th)

The first new feature is the addition of a localization system for people to browse the site in other languages

Day 2 progress on my #GMTKjam snake game

Got most of the base systems in now. Day 3 should be adding in a lot of the combat and adding content to the larger zones past the starting area

Day 1 progress on a jam game for the #GMTKjam

Working on a snake-like game but instead of eating things directly you would loop around them to collect them. Looping mechanic still pending creation though

Made some pixel art designs for a r/place type canvas event! One for programming.dev and one for #d2jam. Both include smaller designs (for d2jam games from the jam, and p.d communities on the site). For anyone interested the event starts in around an hour at canvas.fediverse.events

Been getting a bunch of work for uni lately (hence the no posts) but that should clear up in a couple months and then I can start having a proper post schedule again

Did some work on d2jam.com again recently to add in the Theme Elimination system & some visual improvements

Another daily d2jam.com update. Today I worked on post previews and updating the visuals of the featured streamers area.

Post previews let you see the content of the post without needing to navigate off of the page (by opening it up in a drawer). Useful for compact post styles.

Pushed an update to add image uploading support to https://d2jam.com

Used for adding images to all of the text editors (e.g. post creation) and for uploading profile pictures and banners.Also spent a bit improving the backend structure to make it cleaner and easier to maintain
