Race against other schools and create ability builds. Buggy, but meant to test core gameplay loop.

We got speed! Finally got a speedometer tuned so it looks good with the speed boosts that are happening.

@bytemarepixels.bsky.social coming through with the dope speedometer art.

Merry Christmas!

The very talented @bytemarepixels.bsky.social made this cute Christmas scene! They’re starting to make art for the game so expect it to look much better soon!

Super early and unfinished, but this is the new race mechanic! Essentially the bar fills up as you're running and activates the assigned abilities as it crosses over them.

Blue circles also activate abilities. I need a lot of work to make it make sense as you play it, but wanted to post anyway!

Added some juice! Figured out how to do hitstop makes the boosts feel a lot better, and I love the slowmo at the end.

Also updated the colors, trying to fix my visual hierarchy. The track feels much cleaner now!

Made some new boost indicators (the colors were a little unclear before) and added some dust particles behind their feet! Feels like it's almost there 😁

Had fun adding more art to the background, got a lil crowd to support our runners!

Testing out a random boost mechanic, the bar bounces back and forth and gets checked on the color it lands on.

The runner then gets a corresponding boost.
Green 10%
Blue 20%
Red 50%

I could improve the art, but does this make the race feel more fun?

We got some racing going on in our parallax scene! One step closer 😁

Learning how parallax works! Surprisingly easy in Godot. Background art's not great, but the effect works!

Give it a try here: halfbakedgames.itch.io/dino-track-t...

Drag and drop systems are the friggin worst to debug

Debugging my tooltips and I accidentally turned them into Doug Dimmadomes hat 🙃

Learned how to make custom tooltips in Godot today, and made them into cute lil clipboards!
