Born to build. Chasing the GameDev dream with the support of my beautiful partner & cat-son. Filling the gaps with simracing, selfhosting, gardening, music, and 3D printing. ADHD ain't got shit on me 💪

Boo BigTech & the Oligarchy 👎
Procedural generation is cool because it can produce fun things that surprise even yourself

Working on new enemies, they've already got the cat's seal of approval

I underestimated the complexity in building this, but it was a fun challenge and I'm really happy with the result so far! Shout out to FTL for the inspiration.

It's not in the public build yet, but it will be soon! cinderousworks.itch.io/data-decay

Another good day of progress! Lots of behind-the-scenes stuff for tower upgrading, enemy generation, and level structures. Little bit of art and UI work too :) Hoping to have a playable build to share tomorrow!

Plugging away today. Significantly improved the "blocked" path checking, did a bit of pixel art, added mana, first couple of towers, upgrading and selling. So far so good!

It's that time of the month! #godotwildjam The theme this time is "Growing". I'm working on a tower defense game where you protect the forest by growing plants. I learned a lot about pathfinding/navigation today, here's what I've got so far:
