I don't do it often but I'm so tired of when reporting clearly bad posts like homophobic or racists posts, the only answer is "it doesn't violate our rules blah blah"
My fellow #Godot friends, do you know what can cause a Label which I animate with a tween on its scale property to be clipped but all the possible containers he's inside are all set to clip_children = Disabled (the default value)
#indiedev#solodev#gamedev#madewithgodot
Once again, @inumangames.bsky.social saved the day haha it wasn't because of clip_children but clip_contents that, one day, for whatever reason I don't remember, I turned to true in one of the containers in that part of the scene tree, hence the clipping.
[WIP] Notifying the player (the video has no sounds) when he failed the optional objective of completing the level in a given number of moves

#GodotEngine will support spatial containers in the upcoming 4.8 release and we are excited to see how developers use these new engine's capabilities.
Spatial Containers bring new capabilities to XR applications to work in shared spatial environments.

EA's closure of BioWare is transparently a vile move to shutter the studio that made by far their queerest titles. In the wake of this, I implore you:
MAKE MORE QUEER ART.
Make it trans. Make it horny. Make it scary. Make it loving. Make it with every inch of yourself. Flood the world with it!
It's #WishlistWednesday. Wishlisting is free, so if you love shoot 'em ups that look like they were made in the 80's, wishlist here: store.steampowered.com/app/3584730/...
Just saw the news about BioWare... How such a legendary game studio can be closed? Must have been a "woke" thorn in the side from EA the Saudis were dreaming of getting rid of...
So it appears that ParticleProcessMaterial is shared since it's a Resource. Changing the material on one GPUParticles2D is changing the material of all the other ones even if they were unique in the first place.
I don't know if it was supposed to be solved like this but I have like a sort of fireworks effect on my scene with a custom node which has just basically a GPUParticle2D child. I was trying to change their color with process_material.color (...)

(...) but it was updating all the GPUParticle2D nodes process_material.color. Is it shared? I fixed this behavior by changing the color with the modulate property and now each GPUParticle2D has its own color.

Really feeling uncomfortable seeing so many AI slop in the Steam Neo Fest and also seeing so many AI accounts taking over gamedev communities on Reddit...
Gameplay footage of my retro shoot 'em up Alexus 2040.
Fighting the 3rd boss and failing. I should have kept firing those big lasers at him, instead of wasting half of them.
Demo available on Steam for Next Fest, which is happening now!

Question to my #gamedev friends:
I would like to put in my Steam store page description that I don't use GenAI at all and that my game is 100% human made but I wouldn't want to false trigger the tools many of us use to filter the GenAI games. What is the common practice about that?
Preparing the update coming to Android (next week? ๐ค) I reduced the scope a bit to make it before Google date limit but there will be small updates afterwards. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this could cause while you play.
#gamedev#indiedev#solodev#puzzlegame
Can't wait to have a NOKOMA demo next year and see it invisible and not played! ๐ But at least there isn't any GenAI in my game so maybe it will be noticed amongst the many entries...
The Alexus 2040 demo is live for the #SteamNextFest !

I'm writing a mod in C# and it's reporting a warning on line 3 of a file but the warning is blank for some reason so the "problems" overview just looks like this

This boss has been done for so long, but it dawned on me that I could give it more personality with very small changes:
- The eyes are more evil, generally better
- I added an anticipation frame before shooting + shooting frame
#screenshotsaturday#shmup#indiedev#indiegame
Working on some beep - bloop stuff and new cleaner and simpler transitions between scenes for my #puzzlegame#NOKOMA
Yes - it's #ScreenshotSaturday and I uploaded a video ๐
I'm happy to have created a kind of habit and scheduling about allowing me some time to work on NOKOMA. It seems to work for now and I'm really excited to make little things there and there, making progress on the whole!
#indiedev#gamedev#solodev#Godot#puzzlegame
Didn't post much news lately. Progress has been very scarce... I want to apologize for those of you who put trust in my project. I started to put things back together in my head lately so things should start to move a little more. I have to! ๐ช

@unity.com and @epicgamesstore.bsky.social's recent push into AI is damaging to the creativity that empowers the games industry.
We Indies rejects the notion that such tools and services have a place in the industry and our community at large. We hold a firm stance that AI has no place in games.
NEW: Epic Games has delayed its upcoming (not yet announced) Star Wars + Marvel shooter as it pivots to complete AI game development.
"No more hand-written code," a director told staff. All art "generated with full AI workflows."

Still this pizza menu is the worst I've seen. Zoom in on it, see how awful it really is.
I'm just shocked the large place in a prime location at dinner time was pretty much empty.
