Me: "Finally wrapped up the story campaign of Indiana Jones and The Great Circle - now I can fully concentrate on working on my own game again."

Hey @mantisgames.bsky.social - thanks for hosting today's #turnbasedthursday for us!🥳

#Flatlings is a cute, fast-paced 4X game in a unique 2.5D artstyle where you found cities, expand your empire, discover new lands, and fight up to three other factions over them.

Been working on the music player over the weekend. While it does not make for exciting screenshots I am very happy with how it handles individual tracks and playlists, especially considering Unity's audio API is one of its most neglected parts.

The one advantage the list view had was that it left the view of the location and its surrounding fields unobstructed, which was rather helpful for planning and scrapping expansions. Might be a good idea to group the cards on the left so it's the best of both approaches rolled into one.

Today I learned that you can add the /// <summary> markup in enums to have their meaning showing up in Intellisense.

Meanwhile in a parallel universe.

First draft of the missing location cards for expansions under construction and slots waiting for an expansion. Code needs to be copied from the old expansion window but then everything should be in place. 🙂

After receiving feedback on readability issues I decided to change the list of expansion slots available in a location to a card-based view. Still need to tweak the speed settings to make it more snappy, though.

Experimenting with cards for locations' building slots to make better use of screen space and improve readability. Thoughts?

Happy to see such an angry yet familiar face hosting today's #turnbasedthursday for us!🥳

Work on the map editor has hit a first milestone - instead of having to start from scratch it is now possible to pre-generate a map from a seed, a custom heightmap image, or just a plain terrain type. Editing already works as well but does not look fancy yet. 😅

Didn't quite feel like gamedev-ing during winter but I am back in the saddle again. 😎 Overhauling the tooltip system of my game, giving each tooltip-worthy entity its own dedicated section. Also makes it easier to tackle situations where several entities share a tile.

"No honey, we got a T2 pixel art side-scrolling game at home already."

Uprising

After updating my muted words list with the below names my Discover feed is suddenly empty. Either it is broken, or you folks really need to channel your energy into something more positive.

You cannot call yourself a true indie gamer unless you have played all 500 of them.

My internet arrived on CD.

Have you tried declaring a bol instead?
