My prototype is finally starting to look like something. The cute characters from @kaylousberg.bsky.social 's kits are doing a lot of heavy lifting in the art department

One perk of maintaining an index of gamedev websites is that people are sending me some cool blogs I might have never found otherwise

Tip: for added performance and more compact code you can just check for the letter "t" instead of "true"

It turned out it was happening for a few corrupted search results. I fixed that, thank you

Thanks! Hm, can you give me an example or a link? Nothing like that seems to happen for me

I'd generally advice to search specific problems as they arise. But maybe composing a list like this could help with proper terminology?

I also found that for complete beginners queries like "how to become a game developer" or "gamedev beginner" show some more concrete articles than Google

Thanks to everyone who already posted suggestions for websites for my search engine! It's motivating

Voycawojka @ideasalmanac.bsky.social · 19d

It'll never replace something like Google (I can dream!) but can be used alongside it to find more niche resources

It's pretty much the result of procrastinating on my dungeon crawler

Maybe something more like balanced and imbalanced scales or a square and a triangle with bold vertices?

Great idea, I'll definitely use it once it can be integrated with the built in Godot editor

Voycawojka @ideasalmanac.bsky.social · 23d

It's awesome! Looks really action packed, I didn't realize this is turned based at first

It should be standard practice to have bee movie script unit tests

Godot seems surprisingly well suited to be used as a frontend for custom C# game engines
