I've spent years watching my kids step on manholes and jump over crosswalks on the way to school… so I turned it into a video game. 😃🎮

Set up a proof of concept for this "swap places" mechanic. The Shockwave Effect tutorial by @nolkaloid.bsky.social was suuuper helpful in building this teleport effect. Any and all feedback is appreciated :)

Old clip from mid-January, this is when I was happy with the basic cube pickup, movement and rotation. As long as the cube is held, it's handled by a custom integrator (basically custom physics behaviour) otherwise it's just a Rigidbody.

Practising basic block-out/grey boxing. The basics are working well for now. Most of my previous projects were 2D and in the couple of 3D ones I had, I didn't get to focus much on level design. It's fun to learn and play around.

Heyoo! I'm working on a First Person Puzzle game prototype (on Godot 4.x for now).

I'll try and post actively about my dev, as a journal and to keep myself motivated. This is a button and door test I did in early January.
