I created a custom editor to place dots
I can then dynamically animate each dot in real time to create a sort of dreamy effect✨

The art in Slumber Realm is built out of a bunch of small dots
Here is a sort of timelapse showing how Juliana creates a character🌞

Corpus Edax is great because you can surprise someone with a pitchfork to the head and then lose a fistfight to them anyways
This sounds sarcastic but I am being 100% sincere it rules

One of the bigger challenges in Armada Chess was getting the color tinting to work properly. I haven't done a lot of web-dev so it was surprising to eventually figure out that the "color management" completely mangles the colors on load. My color keys were getting lost (1/3)

I have my fair share of unfinished projects, but they are finally starting to pay dividends. I am unreasonably happy to get this ancient pixel art into a released game

I made a new Chess variant you can play in discord -- you can play it anywhere by clicking the controller icon and typing in "Armada Chess"

This solves some mysterious longstanding problems I have had with Area3D!
PSA if you switch Physics Engine in your Godot project to Jolt Physics and body_entered is no longer working on your Area3D nodes, you need to go into the settings and enable "Areas Detect Static Bodies"
