Tale of Ronin, a project I've watched for a long time has (suddenly) dropped a demo play test on Steam. I was surprised at what I saw on the store page but the #handdrawngame art is what still sucks me in: store.steampowered.com/app/791630/T...

I like #Dinosaurs stuff. And #blender #b3d. m.youtube.com/watch?v=Sc-R...

Very complicated StateMachine fixes = broken sneaking. See utter #gamedev 𝗥𝗔𝗚𝗘 at 17 sec. How can code run like this, make it make sense! #godot #madewithgodot #indie #gdscript #Bethesda 🤬🗯️ #goingforthbyday #screenshotsaturday why not?

This blows my mind, from @kevandram.bsky.social #b3d #blender #digitalart #handdrawngame #gamedev #animation youtu.be/1gKnwBTWanA?...

There are tens of us (in the CA Godot Users's Discord)! If you actually count the massive BAGM in SF (they have a Discord too), well, we're actually a mob. I want us to swarm #GDC2027 with #godot #gamedev #solodev #godotengine #california Join here, add your pin: discord.gg/DAQ3S3TQ6f

Two weeks ago, back to see my creepy friends @nhm.org. Spitting image of Cagliuso and his financial associate. Also, so similar to a certain Brit's Impossible art piece. #shark

Someone way smarter and more successful told me not to sleep on Mastodon. We're over there too if you prefer it.

Make Video Game.

This stupid forsaken collision shape function that parses an instance scene animation player finally, partially works! Not sure how, and its buggy as hell, but its a start! #godot #godotengine #gamedev #exhausted

Maybe refactoring my entire animation player authority along with a half built sneak state vs the state machine wasn't a good idea yesterday. Here's an ancient wall painting that correctly illustrates my current mood. Thutmose III tomb KV34. #egyptology #gamedev #solodev

Boosting to the #handdrawngame feed!

Juggling. Just. Why? #opera #akhnaten @laopera.bsky.social #deservebetter 😮‍💨 www.laopera.org/performances...

But could you really do that? #art #videogames #handdrawngame #mondrian #madewithgodot geouug.itch.io/i-could-do-t...

Updated the Auto Animation keyed Collision Sprite2D Tool for Godot v4.6.1! ☑️ Fixed all the bugs from v4.4.1. ☑️ Removed all comments so file = smaller. ☑️ Now includes a separate GPLv3.txt license file. ☑️ Available now on Itch. gripfastgameworks.itch.io/auto-collisi... #godottips#godot#godot #godotengine

Hey @openalternative.co let's get some eyeballs on this tool so they can get some folks to help with parallel processing PRs! github.com/tamnguyenvan...

"...has nothing to do with your arts skills; its about of your lack of effort. Bye." 🫨 m.youtube.com/watch?v=YD20...

Our new #godotengine #plugin lives and it is glorious. Releasing soon on Itch, under GPLv3. Need to create intro video and waterfall instructions, and a cool logo. Automates a very painful papercut in Godot's audio workflow. I waste time to save yours. #madewithgodot #gamedev #addon

Sometimes new drawing students surprise you. This perspective exercise technically is all goofed up. Lots of line quality issues, poor blend, sloppy vanishing sight lines, etc. But LOOK how the drawing GLOWS. Its like they turned on a bloom shader in charcoal. 💡 #drawing #charcoal #noai #teaching

It's now 2:38 AM. This plugin I'm creating still only partially works. 😡 Open source game engines; pray for us. Indie gamedevs; pray for us. Gamers; pray for us. 🙏 Unity users, unfollow me. j/k. 🤣

Happy with the first UI element. Live, real-time action fatigue indicator for running, jumping and attack inputs. Choices matter, even physical. Millennials can recognize the inspiration: watch out for ghouls and FEV monstrosities if you do. ☣️😎 #madewithgodot #gamedesign #godot #fallout

Made this creaking wooden ship SFX. Sharing it as CC0 licensed because someone on the internet wasn't a nice person. Use for anything you want! Please share it with others. #sfx #gamedev #sounds #ship #wood #pirate #sailing #solodev #gamedevelopment #cc0 #copyleft #noai 🔊⛵

Had to make some input graphics to keep all the things straight in my brain. Not final of course, but here's where the default inputs are right now. The player character really is starting to feel alive, and that's exciting! For my #Egyptology experts, yes those are the famous funerary wall tiles,

Ssshhh! We're being sneaky over here. Nothing to see other than the cursor in the video. Move along now, please. 🕵 #sneaky #stealth ancient Egyptian #samfisher #assassin #Bayek #Aya #madewithgodot #indie #gamedev #goingforthbyday

Another #handdrawngame gets Kickstarter funding: Mia & Mio. store.steampowered.com/app/3197450/...

WIP: crouching sprites. Looks weird with the reference layers from Ramses smiting Nubian prisoners. Almost Indian. 🪷 #goingforthbyday #krtia #gamedev #indie #handdrawngame

Needed to transcribe a video that had a hot mic to re-record the voice over. Very pleased with the results from Vibe using the "medium" model. Great export options. #opensource again, for the win! 🙌 thewh1teagle.github.io/vibe/ Models here: thewh1teagle.github.io/vibe/docs/#m...

Zoo time for references for Ammit. Covergent evolution is fire: tomistoma. #Spino any one? #nature

Spent waaay too much time creating standardized branding to replace all our videos' thumbnails. Feels good though. OCD: ✅ www.youtube.com/@gripfastgam...

Good morning Spring, from California! #nature #flowers #gardening

Made a video essay analysis and critique on @squidshock.bsky.social Bo: Path of the Teal Lotus. Think GMTK + Great Art Explained. We all know it is beautiful, but is it art? #metroidvania #bo #art #videogames #handdrawn 🦊🪷🫶

Discovered @gimpofficial.bsky.social v3.0.8 broke all of my v3 plugins, without solution. AppImage v3.0.4 works but now lost my global menu. Why does everyone hate .debs installs these days? We can enjoy this image of Medusa instead. #gamedev #opensource #gimp

Finished Loan Shark today. Hits above its weight. Indie games are second to none. @studioortica.bsky.social is one to watch. 🦈 store.steampowered.com/app/3751730/...

Color science is wild. explainers.blog/posts/why-is...

Finished yet another tenure-track application today. Have an overwhelming sense of futility. Finally, I can get back to gamedev and working on things I love. #teacher

Putting on my art history hat: www.mothership.blog is, for its first articles, rather refreshing. However, pay-walling these types of ideas suffers from the same critique of Judy Chicago et al, in that they aren't accessible to those who need them most; underprivileged and underserved.

Bō: Path of the Teal Lotus has a #battletoads Volkmire's Inferno design reference with Hashimime, doesnt it @squidshock.bsky.social ? 🦊🪷 +🤛🐸 #metroidvania #handdrawngame

Sharing our time tracking system to new people. It works: they really like the environmental storytelling, music, sfx, and mood. So we give them a controller. They are excited. BUT the Start Menu inputs are somehow on the wrong side of the gamepad...while the keyboard inputs are flawless.

Player has on-demand, in real time, ancient time vs modern time, in the same location. This opens up all kinds of game play possibilities from locale traversal, attacks, to puzzles and more. ⏳👀 #indiegame #gamedev #egyptian #handdrawngame #goingforthbyday

Four days, lots of code, excellent results. Wish we could reveal more, but cannot: BIG spoilers! Here's a hint: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eN7... If you know, you know. #MajorasMask, #LegendOfZelda, #Zelda #mm #goingforthbyday

Sharing a bash script that sorts audio files by pitch + tonality, appends zero-pad naming order (000, 001, 002, ...) and then creates a file list in a .tsv spreadsheet. gripfastistech.com/index.php/11... #linux #tools #audio #ffmpeg #gamedev #automation

The Game UI Database didn't have #Fallout76 in its search results so we submitted 51 screenshots today, @eddcoates.bsky.social. #GoingForthByDay will share some of the controller inputs. We are planning to have famous presets + custom button remapping. 🎮🕹️🗺️😁 www.gameuidatabase.com/index.php?se...

The First Transverse Hall is where the negative confession took place, weighing of the heart, the divine judges (before the dead actually met Osiris). Where else do you park the solar barque? Some of our in-person photography semi-finalized, in-game. #Khufu #Egyptology #videogame #bookofthedead

If you are an aspiring #gamedev, @devduckgames.bsky.social's mantra of "NO ZERO DAYS" is the absolute law, full stop! Nothing too groundbreaking today, but Jan. 1st nonetheless! Polish makes perfect. 🦆😏

If you can see this in #goingforthbyday, it is too late for you! If you die in the afterlife, you cease to exist. Nonexistence is the true #horror then and now. Perhaps the next soul will be willing to save you...? #gamedev #indie #videogames ⚰️

Merry Christmas everyone. And حماك الله انت واهلك
