Details - our mahjong game started getting a building meta, and things spiraled - now, not only can you build your own base, but a monster shows up and tries to mess it up (but that’s it, nothing too crazy). It can’t appear out of nowhere on the map - players deserve a cool intro sequence first!

...UI is made with the Defold GUI.

Available there - github.com/defold/examp...

RGB30 is one of the best Linux handhelds!

The bonus cards are simple for now, but it’s a first iteration, and I’m sure this will make the gameplay more interesting and varied for players!👆

I will also be adding this component to all of my older 3D examples (Scene3D, Ludum Dare compo games etc) to ensure they run smoothly for everyone.

It now works correctly even in situations where the fixed updates runs at the same frequency as the regular update, which could produce an alternating pattern (e.g., 2, 0, 2, 0) before stabilizing to 1, 1, 1… Now it handles it perfectly - buttery smooth from the first frame! 🚀

The widget is created using Dear ImGui, a tool that powers the entire gamedev.
It is also available for Defold!

At the end of the video, the wheel bounced up - this is normal behaviour 🤣 (for now)

When it's done 😄

This custom-built interpolation component has simplified our work with physics running in fixed time step mode so much that I now use it EVERYWHERE!
