Added a bunch of little environment objects to blow up - always surprises me how much adding stuff like that makes a space more fun

We've been working on something special for you, GDLibrary: a completely free library for Godot devs

Think of it as your go-to place whenever you need help: tutorials, guides, a glossary to look up terms, and open source demos and assets to use in your games!

Here's a quick peek at what's coming.

The Godot patch notes made me laugh, so I added sound effects to it

At the #GodotFest I was asked about editing SConstruct in Rider. ~6h of investigation, just to understand it was already supported 😅.
Currently requires the following to work in @jetbrains-rider.bsky.social 🧵

Attention Indie Devs!

I just need 15 seconds ... of your game footage! A lot of people jumped on the 15s video trend, so I thought it would be cool to make a compilation to help indies get some visibility.

I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.

That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

Typing with last few mins I have today with my injured hands! Every share helps

In donating a coffee, you enabled six families & a camp to book a C-section, pay for doctor’s appointments, buy fresh produce, pay rent, get tarps, & more last week. Survival.

The need is high + your impact is huge ❤️

Used the train ride to #GodotFest to build a silly little #Godot EditorPlugin ^^

Couldn't use the built-in physics system, as turning it on in the Editor makes everything fall 😅

#GodotFest has been an absolutely amazing experience! Meeting so many cool people (again) to talk gamedev was really inspiring.
I hope I was able to convey the general workflow with integrating external libraries into GDExtensions in my workshop.
Safe travels back home everyone! 🙌🏻

Good news! Even if you couldn’t make it to #GodotFest this year, all the recorded talks are now gradually being uploaded to our YouTube channel.
If you’d like to support the speakers (and us!) in reaching a wider audience, a like and sub would be awesome!

Expand what Godot can do! At #GodotFest, @flamelizard.bsky.social will walk you through integrating third-party C++ libraries with GDExtension and managing dependencies using Conan, vcpkg, and SCons.

I participated in a local game jam just before going to #GodotFest
Our team implemented a 3D multiplayer arcade racer in 2 days of time. Learned lots again about how to do more custom UI with TextureButtons for the main menu.

Big shoutout to Phantom Camera, an amazing plugin for #GodotEngine that makes tweening between cameras a breeze.

I just discovered that the plugin now supports multiple camera hosts, so I can tween between cameras in subviewports and cameras in the actual game world alike.

Hopefully I'm not opening any bot floodgates with this post, but I'm looking to localize the HAZE asset details in Chinese (and ideally Korean and Japanese)

It's not too many words (<1000) but there are some technical terms here and there

Are there any cool peeps that can help me out with this? 👀
