Not all doom and gloom tho! I’ll read game design books, watch longplays, or practice pixel art on my phone during outages. No power, no problem, I hope.

There's also a bunch of music I want to listen deeply, so that's a plus.

ヤッホー❗ I'm back with the milk! What did I miss...? 😅

Oh yeah, sadly the power outage issues aren’t fully resolved. 6 hours of on and off for how long. So my gamedev time will be limited. Might miss a day or two for now.

Dodging daily ‘maintenance’ blackouts to share this score system update! More when the power behaves... 😅

Anyway, that's one of many reason I missed daily posting 😢

Have few minutes left before another so bye now 👋

Finally the scoring UI works despite being hit by blackouts

That's what I'm trying to do - by utilizing Area 2D collision detection instead of ball exiting the screen.

My old method sounds a bit unorthodox, but I think I can try to utilize 'visible on/off screen' in different case, let's say performance efficiency or something.

Looks good! Not only day/night cycle but I see a bit of weather system as well.

AadzeNomad @aadzenomad.bsky.social · 5d

So I've been tinkering with this for a while I forgot to take a meal...

Did I overthink about it too much? 🤔🎮💥

#GameDev #IndieDev #Godot

Currently using VisibleOnScreenEnabler2D to score when the ball leaves screen. But think of switching to Area2D detectors on both sides.

A bit more setup, but future-proofs for camera shakes—prevents unfair scores if the shake hides the ball! 🎮💥

I've got somethin' on my #ScreenshotSaturday post yesterday! 👀

A dev image of a pirate game w/ steampunk & Cthulhu mythos. Will we be balling with the Great Old One soon? Just asking 🏴‍☠️🔧🐙

As promised, a new video with lots of new kerfuffle to show. Besides the first characters, I've added a bunch of info panels. NPC-, Minion-List and a room info panel. In the moment, just text, but…

New gamemode, anyone? 🕹👀

Logging in. Random 3D #Pinball gameplay in the bg while coding my #pong clone. Idea hits!💡 *grabs my idea notebook*

Other engines can be more bit complex too. Like something I remembered: The more complex it is, the more control you have.

But I think if you're working on less heavy 2D games or quick prototypes, Engines like Gamemaker should be enough

Relearning Signals in #Godot bc my brain just melted from this scorching heat today 🥵☀

Also 📚🔖 UI/Control nodes tutorials as well! Scoring UI can't wait forever! ...Totally won't get sidetracked experimenting. 👀

Anyone else fighting weather rn?

#GameDev #IndieDev

(Re)learning signals on Godot Engine documentation... as well as saving UI tutorials for later

Phew... glad to know that. You're right. Game development is a journey, and journey is what that matters. Thank you for adding me! 😁

I wonder what would it taste if I combine hot chocolate with energy drink?

Taking a note to light a candle on my table during dev session

AadzeNomad @aadzenomad.bsky.social · 12d

Well... time to settle the SCORE! (I'm not sorry for the pun)😋

Good news: My cold's gone. やったー！
Bad news: Lots of things to do today. Like an overdue devlog for one.

This will be gonna be a long night for sure... 😪

AACHOOO!!!🤧 I'm not feeling well today, tripped my leg, and has to go to work...

Well, I just spent about an hour to reread and clean up the code. I have to take it easy, but doesn't mean I have to skip the day!🔥

Maybe I should brew some hot chocolate...☕
