Things learned working with lasers in Godot:
💠 Every feature takes 5× longer than expected
💠 ShapeCast3D is really unreliable
💠 Debugging raycasts is a pain

Still, totally worth it. :D
Can’t wait to share more soon! 😊

Another laser dev? You have my attention!

You just hold right mouse to switch to 3rd-person, and then leftclick to switch to 2D. Easy! 😎

Laser not going where you want? 😵❓
Maybe it works in 2D! 💡

Ahh good tip! Unfortunately, there does not seem to be a way to do this with C#/VS-Code right? 😅

Couldn’t figure out why my script didn’t find any objects with the name "2DPowerReceiver".
I feel royally betrayed!

Definitely agree on the walking speed, right now it's just a little bit too slow 😅🐢
But other than that - looking good! Keep up the great work! 😇

Two buttons but only one cube 🧊?
No problem if you're thinking in a different dimension! ✨🌀

Finally buttons and cubes work properly with the dimension switch!

Follow for more — more gameplay soon! 😋🚀

You are switching between 2D and 3D perspective to solve puzzles!

Don't mind me, just a casual debugging cube. 🧊

Y’all ever feel like your game gets a little more buggy every time you work on it? 💀
