Godot feels like what it is: an engine made in 2025 by people who know how small to mid size games are actually put together.

If you export a category with the "debug" as a the name, it puts a cute lil bug next to the name. Has this just been in the code forever and I never noticed it? lmfao

Finished scalable inventory for upcoming weird RPG.

Technically can make any odd shaped item you can imagine and it should work.

Protip: Every game gets 200% better if it has an ambient gloomy rain area/level somewhere. 🙂‍↕️

After a big code rebasing of Deep Six, I'm finally bringing assets back into the game, making new textures, and blocking out a demo level. I can break my long silence now and start sharing stuff that's easy on the eyes. #GodotEngine

Our GodotFest proposal got accepted! It'll be a long talk with the title:

>Plants, Polygons and Pixels: Large-Scale Vegetation Rendering in Godot

We'll discuss how to create optimized 3D foliage assets, how to scatter them, lots of shading tricks, and LOD systems.

Hope to see some of you there :)

I just submitted a talk proposal for GodotFest! This is the session image - can you guess the topic?

Everything starts simple, small, or with an idea. Taking the first steps is often the most difficult, but each single step puts you closer to the goal.💚

Wasn't fully able to finish the solo project for a #GMTKJam , but I finished putting up the models I made for it for free. I will be adding more to it, as I spend the rest of the week fully finishing the game.

Saw a State Machine that was an affront to humanity. Using Node2Ds, and many other godot war crimes with far too many views/likes.

I can't financially support Godot, but I'm now starting a bucket list of tutorials to make. Let me know if there's anything you'd wanna see.

Idk why but this job ad make me laugh harder than it should of:

"Fluent in at least one game editor (Unity, UE5, StarCraft 2 or Warcraft 3 editors)".

Godot: Am I joke to you?

I wonder if they'll accept the WC3 custom maps I made back in 2004 on the resume. LOL.

Once worked with a writer that claimed of made 10 D&D modules. I didn't question it, because WHO would lie about that...?

1-2 months into the project, mimimal writing done... I casually ask to see the modules.

His response:

"I didn't write them down."

💀 Bro wtf.

For those interest in this stuff. Testing state machine on enemies; for current game I am working on for a friend.

You cannot look at them or they chase you until you stop.

Designing enemy state machine, and one of the details provided to me for them is that the enemy doesn't see or hear;

In my programmer brain, I'm like, "Well technically every NPC is a walking deaf/mute given the illusion of sentience, and senses." ☕
