I've been using the #GodotXRGameJam as an excuse to learn 3D art with Blender for the first time, and it's really coming along.

I spent the weekend prototyping a new project to work on something fresh, and I'm loving it. It's a mini #rpg with proximity voice chat, large explorable zones, and procedurally generated dungeons.

Come slide with me through loopy shooter maps in this homage to Counter-Strike's beloved Source engine surfing

A 2004 Counter-Strike mode based on glitchy physics has become a standalone Steam game.
