Massive shout out to @littlekittybigcity.bsky.social for sending me some awesome LKBC treats!

Huge fan of the hat that a poor unsuspecting Kitty will find themselves wearing 🎩 🐈

Not sure I can bring myself to se the Sticky Notes though…. They’re too adorable 🥹

🎬 New video out now! ✨

All I wanted to do was make my game prettier... but the game didn't like the sound of that...

Join me as I discuss the steps I've taken to try to improve the visuals of my game... all while my own game tries to kill me 🐶🦋

It’s been a while! That’s because I’m stuck in my own game 👋🏻

I’ve built a level loading system in Godot 4.3 using C# with some UI Shader magic to hide scene loading. But ever since I implemented it, things have gotten... weird. The transitions are seamless. Maybe too seamless…

I’m trapped.

Tried to make the tail-wagging animation more natural-looking using Blender's animation graphs! 📈

Knew to use them but haven't until now. Removed redundant keyframes and made animating that much easier 🐶

...okay... now onto walk cycles...

Finally been able to get back into game dev! Started off by finally making a rough tail wag! 🐶 I'll give it a little more TLC later down the line.

...dreading the walk cycle next...

Finally trying to sculpt my game’s main character in Blender! It’s literally the MC in Dog’s Life, Jake 🐶 if you’ve watched my game dev videos/streams you’ll know why 👀

Only ever done one sculpting tutorial before but giving it my all!

Oh wow, hello everyone! 👋🏻

Thank you all so much for 200 followers 🎉
It’s incredibly humbling and I appreciate the support so much!

To celebrate here’s a sneak peak at how the inside of the Kennel shop is coming along! 🐶 🏠

🐶 Project Update! 🌳

Finally getting some world-building done. Added some (lol) terrain textures, grass instancing, trees and stylised wind particle effects! 💨🍃

Using Terrain3D for the Terrain (highly recommend!)

Some more progress! This time we be playing in mud... or at least it looks like mud...

Trying out shaders with small and simple ones but learning a lot. Super proud to get these shaders working on my own with what I've learned.

Water is coming too!

New Project. New Mechanic. Digging!

The animation is my favourite part. Studied how various mammals dig for approx 5 minutes to achieve this result 👁️👄👁️

Double points if you know which early 00s game this project is a nod to 🐶

Note: this is the best JRPG

Finally made my first proper shader for water!

Learned a lot... all I can see now is maths, different spaces and warped screen textures... but I THINK I understand it now.

The waves aren't perfect but it does what I wanted it to!
