Every day is a school day.. today's new skill: procedural generation and tilemap manipulation.

#Godot is an incredibly easy engine to pick up

Rocket Drop: Update

#gamedev #godot

- Learned shaders
- Added some particles
- A screen shake
- A realtime UI
- More art!

Soooo much left to do but this is so much fun!

Rocket Drop: Update

#gamedev #godot

- I now have an art style
- Learned to 'chunk' the blocks to allow for up to 25,000 blocks without a performance hit
- Swap between available rockets after death

Next up, the shop and powerups!

Learning #Godot - my first indie "hobby" game; Rocket Drop

The first powerup is already working too; "Duplicate" - you will notice there is a slim chance for the "rocket" to duplicate itself when hitting a block

I guess its time to #buildinpublic

Let's keep one another motivated 💪 Show me what you're working on and keep an eye out for the upcoming posts 👀

Its been a while. Is #buildinpublic still a thing? :)
July 20, 2025 at 9:16 PM
Social inactivity: restored

Coding inactivity: never happened

I have been very quiet recently whilst I put together my second #buildinpublic application.

How has everyone been? ✨

Good morning everyone! 👋🏼

You sit and work every day
You learn/improve every day
You do it over and over again

Eventually, things fall into place and successes pile up.

So, if you feel behind - relax.

You're not that different from anyone else.
You just haven't reached the good part yet.

Keep going.

I am thinking of adding a 'health alert' system to Fio.

(Fio is a task/time tracking app to convert your time directly to an invoice)

I have Autism & ADHD and forget to:
- 🍔 Eat
- 🍺 Drink
- 🧘‍♂️ Take breaks

Who would utilise a reminder system to do these things?

Real-time notifications, system events and goals are now sent and received via websockets! ↔️🚀

Notifications will be sent to the user for:
- invoices that have been paid
- goals that have been achieved
- successful email delivery of invoices

Deploying soon to a browser near you

Joining Fio and want to start from an Invoice Number already on file? No problem!

Customise your prefix, suffix and starting number from the Settings to pick up your Invoicing where you left off!

Complicated pricing plans.. GONE! ❌

New, simpler, visually appealing pricing plans are HERE! ✨

I have decided to remove the complicated pricing and go for a simpler 2 plan structure. This removes the difficulty of wondering how many times you will hit a limit and need to upgrade.

Version 2.0 of Fio is launching very soon 🚀

It feels insane to be able to double the amount of features Fio previously had in the next major release

🎨 New colour palette

I am introducing a darkened sidebar to help separate the dashboard navigation from the page content

It also makes a great "primary" colour for buttons

NEW! Daily Activity ✨

Stay consistent with your tasks and goals on Fio - never lose track of your days!

Fully custom and extendable - really looking to building more into this powerful little widget
