Im pretty sure we started the BNK-3R fight at 11:40pm ish and only finished it around 12:30am and then gave up when we died in the angel room because it was almost 1am

Saying "Wanna go play borderlands 2 for a bit?" Is now what I regret the most In my life.

Me and @lessthanahuman.bsky.social in the span of an hour and a half got fucked over by 2 constructors, got spawn camped by an engineer midget that regenned shields every 5 seconds and then did the bnk3r fight

It's kind of nice actually, all you can eat buffet of cabbage.

Do you know the cabbage woman?

She comes to you at night and steals your cabbage, and if you don't have any cabbage she brings you back to her lair where she keeps all her cabbage.

Apex Legends and Titanfall 2 have been my favorite games and have driven me to make this game but I'm not really sure if I can really capture the Titanfall fan base with this for long enough to make it worthwhile.

I just hope I sell more than 6 copies 😭

CSLR @venitstudios.bsky.social · 2d

I really hope this game sells more than a few copies, I'm trying to fill the void respawn left when they ended Titanfall 2 development but right now there are just so many better FPS games coming out that it might not have a chance.

My biggest hope right now is just sucesful-ish marketing

While my biggest concern right now is gameplay I'm gonna need to make a lot of assets.

Even at the scope I shrunk down to I need 3 mech models, 12 gun models and probably 4 maps, 5 if I end up making a for a tutorial.

Im genuinely considering outsourcing some asset creation

CSLR @venitstudios.bsky.social · 2d

From a combat standpoint i just need to work on the titans since the pilots are more or less fully featured but I'm still missing a lot and I haven't even tested how well half of this works with clients outside of the server, and at some point I need to start working on steam integration.

It's time for a #gamedev rant

At my current pace it's seeming like I can get most of the core gameplay on deadzone done by the end of the month but it's still going slower than I hoped.

I was hoping to use November to just focus on assets but that might not happen until December

It's called not watching any of them until there's one that you really want to watch

It's fine short term and it's helping to get important work done but somewhere along the line everything I've been putting off needs to get done 😭

I'm honestly shooting myself in the foot on my current dev project, I'm delaying work on any assets to focus on the main game mechanics because in the pursuit of perfection im gonna neglect things that actually matter and just constantly try to improve the 3d models

"yeah I don't need to improve this horrible thing right now, I'll do it next month"

I love the amount of shit valve got away with when it comes to the team fortress 2 cinematics because none of it would fly with the internet culture these days

These days the cartoon jokes would just be considered brainrot and the more "edgy" jokes would probably get them cancelled

i came up with this cloaking effect in #godot using a basic shader accessing the screen texture and some tweens for the flicker

could use some work but im happy with how it is now

I'm always so excited when I see this and then I remember that it's a bug that gets fixed by reloading the discovery feed 🙁

Been going through a bunch of my old songs from when I was making music almost every day, starting to realize my mixing wasn't bad I just had shitty headphones 😔
