New Goblin enemy! Get him patrolling around tomorrow.

Some days are just hours of animating sprites, but that's just a day in the life of a 2d game dev! 😅

Building something totally different next: An interactive Desktop Pet in Godot! 🐾

Learned tons about manipulating the window manager, no borders, always-on-top, and interactable. Coming soon! www.youtube.com/@GodotDevChe...

Got the armor and animations working together now! When sprite stacking with different sprite sheets that was a bit tricky, but success! Oh and we can hit stuff now. Enemy time!

Wooo, not going to lie, getting this blocking and attacking was a lot more than I bargained for tonight! 😭 But it's done! Now that the foundation is there just have to get an enemy to hit!

Zoom implementation and into the dense forest to test transparency and player visibility.

TLDR; Area2D to Area2D not Area2D to StaticBody2D.

Embarrassing amount of time fixing movement, stopping move jitters, mouse follow, and way tooo much time trying to get objects to fade when player goes behind.

Thanks PVGames for the assets! These are gorgeous old school RPG style and I'm super excited to test them out. I've got my Player moving how I want, time for level design! www.pioneervalleygames.com/index.html

Rough month, haven't been able to do what I set out to do. Doing a bit of a reset by playing games then I'll get back to making! First part of my Anna: Extended Edition playthrough.

There’s beauty in nature, it’s motivating.

Revisiting my Colony Builder game today as a refresher and break from my other project. Experimented with adding interactive sand and fluids to it, super cool! I’ll have a video of that this weekend.

Ever break a project so bad it just might be easier to just trash it and start again. :le sigh:

Been enamored with this new story idea I’ve been playing with. The brain reset has been invaluable.

Veins of Europa (Pending Title)

Just crossed the 14k word mark and think it’s something worth continuing with how much fun I’m having with it!

I think I’m literally 4 different people with each their own sub hobbies. 😅

Currently in my #writer phase. Got absorbed #writing story for my survival #horror game and apparently the game will come with its own #Novella now.

Sample in DevLog below (Disturbing content)⚠️ :

Don’t lack focus, it just moves. 😅

Work on story for my game? I did!

Did I get distracted and develop a solar system expanding story with 5 factions and 4 fantastical antagonists with an overarching oppression that may or may not make them work together? Also, yes! #ADHD #IndieGameDev

Are you really an #IndieGameDev if you don’t add a new system in that breaks your other systems then have to go reconfigure the system again to play nice with other systems? No? K, just checking.

Volume work, random scares, nuanced details!

When thinking, let's do that, sometimes we think it'll be easier than it is. 😅
