Nobody's going to play your game if it never exists! The pursuit of perfection is a trap.

Below it is a drawing of a perfect circle captioned "You can make it good later", next to a screenshot of the modern version of the game.

New poll on my discord : within an #ActionRPG, you cast a projectile. A crit is rolled. How do you expect the execution ? Crit on cast, the projectile glow brighter. Crit on hit, the projectile found a weak spot.

Rework difficulty + show this setting in the stat block. Unlocking Steam achievements/leaderboards is only enabled from the Champion difficulty onwards for true glory. 🤺

Started implementing spell mutators today! Mutators are extra effects that can change the way a spell works. It can be subtle, or not so subtle.

Today let's demonstrate modifying the Cone spell to utilize the "Prismatic" mutator, which will randomize the element of each shot!

I recreated the #inkscape path editor as a #Godot plugin the last 3 days! (I amazed me)

This will take (y)our #vector #art to the next level.

I'm thinking of renaming it to 'Scalable Vector Shapes 2D', because it also has an importer #svg now.

Made some cloud shadows for my survivors-like game using a shader and a noise texture (which is randomized every run).

true, depressing. Especially when you got many advises like : start early to build an audience opposite to have a great product to show (which doesn't exist at early stage). Atm, i'm only able to build with people working in the same industry, not with future consumer..

I don't know if a color-code is meaningful, maybe. I'm used with a vertical progress bar for that kind of information. Maybe you can mix both of them (progress bar + color)

Sunset/ sunrise. Counters for coins. Added some randomisation to the lightning shock animations, and fixed some goblin waking animations.
