Still a good bit of edge case testing to go - but joining a game that's already in progress is technically working!! #kyoukai #indiegamedev #godot

Big swath of icons today - rooms now show their status clearly, and a toggle to allow watchers in your room has been added too! If a no-watchers room has two players seated, it disappears from the room list. #kyoukai #indiegamedev

BTW! Replays have been getting saved for a while now. I don't have a good way to read them yet... but it's a log of all events the game sends online. So basically, everything a WATCHER would receive! If watchers work during a game, then this log should be readable later. #indiegamedev #godot

Some more Kyoukai cards have been in the works lately, art included, as I continue getting ready for the launch of a series of Alpha testing weekends! For now, it's time to nitpick. Which of these 3 versions of Zodiac Prophecy do you like the most?

Now that networking is pretty solid, I've moved the activity log off to the side, and added a much needed player list! #kyoukai #godot #indiegamedev

The state engine is now fully operational! Hot dog!! Here's what it looks like to navigate from the title screen to an online game, and then some online rewinds. This is in the public steam demo now! #indiegamedev #gamedev

Cards in your main deck are not loaded objects - as such, drawing cards spawns new objects into the scene tree, and putting them back into deck despawns them. Spawn and Despawn behavior is now working in the state engine, which means it's now FEATURE COMPLETE! #kyoukai #indiegamedev #godot

Spawn/despawn cards still needs to be worked on, but otherwise, the State Engine is working on most major operations! Online, the player that STARTS the sequence will be able to request a rewind 3 times a game, and the opponent will have to approve it. #indiegamedev #godot

The most basic situation works! I will not elaborate on what else does or does not work! #indiegamedev #godot

Along with the battle puzzles structure, I've also updated the solo mode a bit! When you back out of solo chapter, the solo menu will still be showing the chapter you just played. Also, when you FINISH a chapter, it will mark it that way permanently! #indiegamedev #kyoukai #godot

Been a while, but I finally got around to (asking Mark to) sketch up the two new vanilla summons in the starter decks! #indiegamedev #kyoukai

Making good progress on an improved transition from online lobbies into games, in part because I need a way to roll a dice! This will make it less nebulous who's going first too #kyoukai #indiegamedev #godot

Kyoukai now has mac support - but it turns out Mac mice send different scrolling signals than windows. I'm still not sure how to get that working, but I did get around to adding a scroll handle to the infinite scrollers as a result! They feel springy and control speed. #indiegamedev #godot #kyoukai

barely finished my first ever game jam in time, with a very simple little idea after I found out about it on friday and ran with the "loop" theme on a whim, it's very short but I'm proud I got it working!
