This hover tooltip, that shows info about an entity, has been super useful for debugging. And it was really easy to add with Godot's builtin tooltip functionality!

Working hard on Wild Cosmos, and getting closer to the end.

I want this small world to feel alive and vibrant.

I'm a single person behind this project and if that's the kind of games you like, sharing it and wishlisting helps me greatly.
