I'm super impressed with @blender.org's built-in video editor (sequencer). Should not have slept on this until now... the only major deal breaker I've encountered is the lack of audio tools and effects.
For quick stuff though or edits without the need for audio tooling this is pretty amazing.

“Is programming art? I still can’t tell. I should make a post and ask the more experienced programmers. I couldn't possibly know because I’m a designer first and only started programming very recently……… 12 years ago. Wait, what?”

Things my Laptop does, my phone just doesn't:
When I press backspace to delete stuff here on bsky, I get a little staticky noise, as if he were complaining.
Writing does it too, but they keyboard is louder than the sound.
Feels a little more alive to me somehow, I like it.
#computers, I guess?

Greybox vs current version of my town's tavern! Currently this is probably the extent of my abilities with blender, but I'll get better :)
I've also improved the general AI of my entities - now guards will help each other if you attack one of them :)
Those fuckers.

This evening I implemented a simple system to let enemies be one of three things towards each other: agressive, assistive or afraid
and it just kinda works???
(I still need to implement fear though)

I found a style I like for the curse cards in my game!
And it's not even insanely time-intensive :D
This one's the card for "agression", roughly modeled after my chonky cat being threatening, haha^^
I think this'll look good on a card, and I can keep that style up :)

(Small) Milestone:
Yesterday, I put my first dialogue tree written with MY OWN dialogue editor in my game!
Now let's hope it'll actually get me to write more dialogue on the go, which it was meant for, haha^^

Game companies should release their old proprietary engine tools.
What's the harm in releasing your stuff you used to make games with on like, the Dreamcast? Or like, Bioware's old engines?
Video game companies are way too greedy about dead, useless shit (like IP they're never going to use ever).

I think any technical gamedevs who aren't on Tig will get a kick out of this:

Dude's making a raytraced puzzle game - all on the CPU!
Really like the devlog too:

I need to brush up on my art skills again, and doing lil' animations seems a good way to do that^^
Not sure I'll be animating anything in-game as my skills just aren't there yet, but practice is practice :)
(Also at least it loops on here, thank fuck)

Today I will be adding some fun Easter eggs to the game.
Shouting OPEN SESAME into the mic to open a pack.
Saying "heart of the cards" once per battle to draw something good.
Holding B when opening a pack to get better odds.
None of this will be documented beyond here.

Well, in between modeling, I got sidetracked once again, but implemented dialogue trees - now I just need a tool to let me write dialogue from wherever I want and on my phone too...

So I've been Playing #rainworld and damn... Reading the devlog didn't prepare me for the effect it'd have on me - I'm excited like i'm 12 years old, holy shit is it fun (and brutal) :D
It also made me realize I should just work around a problem I'm having. Can't have perfect solutions for everything

I think now that all my base mechanics are done, and I have most of the first level mapped out, I should refine what I have to get it to look like it does in my brain :D
Working on improving my art skills across all areas for that too... It's been too long since I drew something.

Rarely do I have such a simple plan^^
Knockback overhaul:
- rename anim_speed_multiplier on weapons to weight_multiplier
- add base_knockback to wapons
- multiply weapon's anim speed with material's weight_multiplier - multiply base_knockback with material's weight_multiplier
