the 1993 movie sandlot was set in 1962 so if it were made today with the same offset it'd be set in 1995, 2 years after the movie's release. pretty wild right. ok bear with me this next one is even better. the 1994 movie clerks was set in 1994, so if that movie was made today it would be set in 2026

I’m no longer trudging through tutorials, they are now references. I don’t have answers now, I’m currently working on a small Zelda clone. The dream is to do a Faxanadu clone at some point in #Godot #GodotEngine #GameDev #SoloDev #IndieDev Any idea for spritesheets similar to Faxanadu?

Project complete. My first ever mobile game. Works nicely, has my classic sound effect, also has scores/high scores, and all the bugs have been sorted.

Blazing through tutorials now that I make time for them. We have a HUD that updates with a score when player successfully clears pipe obstacles. Older tutorials make me appreciate how coding is easier than it was in #Godot3 Flappy Bïrd :-0

Started another older tutorial (Godot 3, please don’t be mad) and again, enjoying progress. Got frustrated when my code didn’t work properly but on closer inspection it was because I’d missed a #GDScript indent!

Have finished “Galaxy Guardian”. Found my own assets, couldn’t find a decent explosion replacement (except for my voice for player), but I’m especially proud of the music I found, very “Zero Wing”

Updated to 4.6 and I love the new layout. Here is yet another tutorial I’m doing - just a snapshot but have player spaceship that moves, is animated, and we have an animated enemy that has random spawn points too.

I must admit I do like the new theme although I still miss Godot 3’s theme #Godot #GodotEngine
#Godot 4.6 is out, and all about your flow!
This release puts you and your workflow first with a new theme, flexible docks, and dozens of UX improvements. And Jolt Physics by default, revamped IK, better reflections, and more.
Less wrestling with UI. More making games.

Replayed Cruelty Squad in order to play the Stock Market rather than messing around with fishing. It introduced me to #GodotEngine and the fact I love it so much is proof that #Godot is a great game engine capable of many things

Sorry to hear this, condolences. I had to have one of our dogs put down yesterday, we got his ashes today and I just broke down

Absolutely! Art can always be tweaked, code can generally be optimised, but if you spend time messing around trying to make it perfect rather than trying to just make it work you’re doing to be stuck a long time and make no progress

Below you can see a comparison of the tutorial with Kenney assets vs the bitchin’ pixelated ones that I got. The player character can move around, bump into asteroids, and has a limited area to move in. Will finish soon #GameDev #IndieDev #SoloDev

It’s just so much better than a lot of the Godot 4 color schemes/themes. I’m so glad it looks like this now (it’s close to my current theme)

inspired by my #Godot #GodotEngine progress, decided to give #StarAllVampires another go with a smaller scope/prototype in mind. This will also function as a project starting point for other 3D FPS I might choose to do in the future. #SoloDev #GameDev #ImdieDev

My problem with earlier 4.x versions of Godot was the UI appearance - I much preferred Godot 3 in that respect (I see I’m also not the only one). I’m currently doing a #Godot #GodotEngine tutorial which uses the 4.6 theme - I have high hopes for this release!

A game having a solid look/feel and a fun (and often, simple) gameplay loop is the way forwards in my opinion. Even at greatest scope, my game won’t involve DLC, a crafting system, or anything else that seems to be tacked onto things these days. Cruelty Squad showed us this.

One of my philosophies using Godot is that the games I make should be playable by everyone - you shouldn’t need to get another expensive graphics card, and a lot of new games (especially AAA) all have that Unreal Engine sheen to them.

In “Asteroid Attack” I decided to give a polygon collision shape to the alien because he looks so funny getting hit by asteroids. Started on #StarAllVampires prototype too because AMD fixed the driver at last 😼😼😼 #GameDev #SoloDev #IndieDev
