Made some coral type things, playing around more with vertex colors to add variation without making multiple materials or mesh instances Might do some vertex painting for levels too, where I think the lighting would benefit #saltwaterbodies #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #indiedev

Going to be releasing the first public demo build of #saltwaterbodies soon... kinda nerve wracking. It's really only a small cross section of the whole thing, but it feels like not enough for two years of part time development >.<

Have seen a lot of people, in discussing the recent JG revelation, echo this claim that murder is somehow *objectively* less bad as a crime than SA, without really considering how this reads to victims. If you feel that way as a fellow survivor of SA I entirely understand what you mean, but when

View full thread

I think this stems from specifically the societal viewpoint, that for everyone who is not the victim it is a lot more convenient to have somebody they can bury and grieve for a few months than to have a broken person that needs a little more emotional effort to deal with for the rest of their life.

Obviously both crimes are abhorrent, there are countless ways for one person to irrevocably harm another, but may let's not try to rank them in some fucked up moral tier list to score internet points without considering the implications you're making about the victims of those crimes

it's just thrown in as a rhetorical technique and not a subjective way of relating the harm you've experienced, it comes across as this implication that you think *I should prefer to be dead right now*, that my current state is somehow worse than that of somebody buried in the ground.

In @mikebithell.bsky.social's Vampirium: 1997, you can weaponize that thing where you're trying to leave a social situation but someone keeps talking to you right before you head out the door 😭 I defeated a guy using a broom and awkward social interactions

Why are the clouds irl rendering non-volumetrically, when did we switch to an alpha cutout layer with edge fill

10 Sept

Adjusting some lighting, there's a chimney structure here you can use to refill your air. Hopefully it's fairly obvious there's a hole in the ceiling from the lit area, but may need to adjust the geometry somehow if not... #godotengine #indie #gamedev #saltwaterbodies

Testing some audio trigger stuff in SWB and managed to scare myself with a cartoon spring "boing" sound >.>

earlier I finished The Message From Deep Space and honestly a great game, on par with Outer Wild. would recommend it to anyone who likes media like Contact or Arrival took me about 24 hours over the course of a week, but it's split up into many small levels (like maybe 100?) and also bigger acts

30 July

also obviously if you liked Chants of Sennaar you'll probably like this. It has less environmental context for the learning, but that's offset a bit by the fact you have 3 other characters on your team providing dialogue and optional hints/ideas

Doing some automation in my lightmap baking, and there *has* to be some simpler way in #godotengine to trigger this...

Some #godotengine #gamedev clips for #screenshotsaturday: Firstly, removeable planks. I'm gonna be adding a few different obstacles, some that will take tools but some like planks are going to be simpler to deal with

6 June

I've also worked more on the bathysphere control gameplay. You now have to manage the descent rate to avoid over-stressing the hull, otherwise it can implode :o

3 June

A very productive stream of SWB #gamedev! Added pulleys that can form a sequence, and can be jammed to stop bathysphere movement until the player fixes it. #indiegame #godotengine

2 June

Got some very simple "rope rendering" working... just scaling and rotating a cylinder mesh😅 Might make this fancier in the future with a skeleton or even custom shader with per-instance slack etc, but for now I think it'll be good enough! Tomorrow will look at adding pulleys, for the bathysphere..

4 May

Not much to show visibly from today's #gamedev stream, mostly under the hood stuff, but here's the debug display for the stats:

More productive #gamedev on the stream earlier, added air tanks. These will be standalone and also as part of the scooter: #screenshotsaturday #godotenginer

Also worked on a vending machine! Nice to get some use out of this inventory system, not sure what effect I'll tie to drinking soda or whether I want them to be something that can be picked up and used elsewhere 🤔

Technically #screenshotsaturday here now so a peek at what I was working on during this evening's #gamedev stream: The diver propulsion vehicle, aka "scooter", will be how players get around larger areas quickly. I'll probably also use it to store equipment or as air restoration point.

A little demonstration~ Might tweak the speed, and add some kind of "warming up" to the motion, I want the player to still be swimming around manually when not travelling between locations.

Getting back into the habit of taking selfies, enjoy some vaguely professional ones (though I definitely need a hair cut soon 😭)

My entry for #godotwildjam is up here if you want to take a look :3 Still a bunch of mechanics I didn't have time to implement (distillation, customers/specific orders), but might revisit and do a post-jam version after more work on SWB eva-codes.itch.io/prohi-brew-t... #godotengine #gamedev

15 Apr

Added punched cards and a card puncher machine! Unwieldy but that's half the fun #godotengine #gamedev #godotwildjam

15 Apr

And of course I accounted for flipping the card! Horizontal flipping reverses character order as expected, vertical flipping reverses the bit-order of each character (allowing for characters not on the keyboard 👀) Punching multiple times bitwise ORs the results #godotengine #gamedev #godotwildjam

15 Apr

The little indicator flags on the machines are actually functional, you can tie them to levers using cables! #godotengine #gamedev #godotwildjam

Fan physics... kinda mesmerising #godotengine #gamedev #godotwildjam

Working on a little something for the #godotwildjam and trying out some physics-based automation/factory type game. Enjoying this "offhand" mechanic to build stuff, but it's quite finicky 😅 #godotengine #gamedev

Having read a fair amount of LitRPG, I really think that this feeling I get as someone who learnt how to program and is now watching a generation of people who can only code using LLMs, must be exactly how wizards would feel watching a generation of people who can only cast magic using the System

29 Mar

wdym you can only cast the specific spells that the System grants you access to, and it's all random/you have no control over what's available. You have to spend "mana points" to cast things? 🤨 Like not to power the effect, but just to make an incantation you could just... know... pick up a tome 📖
