Lying in bed, cannot sleep. Since life derailed a few years back, Marble Game has been what I poured all of myself in. And now I fear it just sucks.

Recently some Expanse fan got really angry for some godforsaken reason when I suggested the show could change the 30 year time skip in the books to 5-10 to prevent recasting or heavy makeup. Turns out season 6 of the show already plants this idea: Clarissa Mao is given 5 yrs left to live.

Back in the day when a game was too big for the disc it was supposed to be stored on, developers put the game on multiple discs. And you swapped them when you reached a certain point in the story. I feel I have to say that cause I just saw limited media sizes as an argument for digital-only games.

"I wake up every morning and despite not knowing what to do, I put one foot in front of the other and I try to make the best choices I can." That is one of my favorite quotes from the new Superman movie and it has been my philosophy of the development of Saturday Morning Marble Game.

How about I'm gonna OP a band instead? rm -rf

Favorite thing I've seen all day. I love Bernd. Watched the program on many sleepless night and I am glad he's getting more known all over the world. :) berlin.social/@mina/115248...

I miss boss select screens #pixelart #gamedev #radiantstarlets

The playtest of Saturday Morning Marble Game has shown that I need to prioritize two features: a) quick build mechanic b) allowing to move multiple and/or connected parts Has both of them on the TODO already, but will prioritize now. Multi-move is the scariest. Will require some refactoring.

I miss the Wii days. When people didn't say that "Nintendo doesn't care about their players because of prices" and instead people said "Nintendo doesn't care about their players because of weak hardware and casual games".

I know I've posted about this before, but I swear you guys are sleeping on my drag-and-drop export utility. CTRL+SHIFT while dragging nodes into your inspector. It creates the relevant @export variable, and assigns it.

It's now been 2 years since I started working with #godotengine . Marble Game has long since ported and its continued development is going well. I have not regretted that step once.

"I think, when one has been angry for a very long time, one gets used to it. And it becomes comfortable like…like old leather." - Picard, The Wounded Not just comfortable. Comforting even. Soothing.

The playtest of Saturday Morning Marble Game isn't even going for a day and I'm already implementing feedback. Brought back the box that shows some input help on the HUD as well as an option to turn it off if not desired.

Sent out a bunch of playtest invites. As much as I feel confident I can handle feedback from at the moment. If you haven't gotten one, I am so sorry. I may send out more at a later point OR I might go fully public and provide a demo. Just so much solodev-me can do at once. I will do my best.

The definition of insanity is getting let down by a corpo and then hoping to be saved by another. I can't wait for the inevitable dumpster fire. ,😆

Man. Programmers. Who knows what they're doing in there. www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRMk...

So GOG got into mods now. I got myself the KeeperFX mod. Installed it via Heroic. On Linux. One click. Works. :D

How the day started: Looking into GDExtension for Godot How the day ended: Ported my physics interpolation (since it's so simple) to C++ using GDExtension, having it all integrated into KATE and ready tor more. :) #godotengine

For some reason BSky randomly logged me out and when I logged back in, my phone went "wanna save this password?" FUCK NO! I rather write a sticky note than saving my passwords in a fucking cloud. Especially one controlled by the US regime.

I am happy and proud to own a physical copy of Xenoblade The Secret file, but the translated PDF is way more useful to me, I must admit (since I can't read jp).

w.i.p

In some drawings in the "Xenoblade The Secret File" book, Reyn looks like discount-Ganondorf

"Damn, Youtube sucks now" "You know there's an open alt-" "If there just was a way to watch videos on the internet besides Youtube." "But there now is an op-" "But you just can't play back videos on anything but Youtube." "..." "That's just not possible..."

What waiting for Metroid Prime 4 feels like #metroidprime4 #pixelart

I'd like to make a proper Demo of Saturday Morning Marble Game, but in truth, I do not know how that should look. I don't want to limit playtime or saving cause that that goes against what the game should be: relaxing. What remains? Removing some parts? That's tricky, too. Can be frustrating.

Would you like to play an early version of Saturday Morning Marble Game and give some feedback? Let me know in the replies if you'd like to participate and soon, I'll send DM invites for the playtest Discord server. (No Discord? We'll figure it out!) #indiedev #godotengine

Saturday Morning Marble Game playtest builds are DONE!

Family of Blood is still one of my favorite Doctor Who stories. But what's sad is that, looking at the ending, if you had given Jodie's Doctor this story, people would have complained "The Doctor shouldn't be so cruel! Out of character! HASHTAG NOT MY DOCTOR!"

It's Wednesday. Aka Backup day. Aka '[sdb] Very big device'-day!

Starter Kit: City Builder has been updated to @godotengine.org 4.5! ✨ I've added zooming, on-screen controls, loading cities from resources, sounds and better instructions too. The project is open-source: github.com/KenneyNL/Sta...

I like how Star Trek predicts the future. Like the Holo Deck. You can play any program that already exists, or go to the computer, telling it the things you want, how they should behave - giving it a "prompt" if you will. No boring coding required. Only vibes. 🙃

I'm extremely happy to see that Godot 4.5 handles FSR2 a LOT better than 4.4 did. A lot of the random flickering is now gone and the picture is extremely stable. I can run the game at 75% of its native resolution and you can barely tell the difference.

With the right combination of Anti Aliasing and Resolution Scale, you can make Saturday Morning Marble Game look like an N64 game.

I really don't like the Kelvin timeline Star Trek movies, but I have to say Karl Urban did an AMAZING job as McCoy. He has this talent to make everything terrible good and enjoyable. Makes me wish I had a Karl Urban in my life.

been obsessed with this song/video recently and had to draw this lol

With the playtest of Saturday Morning Marble Game coming up, I'm already nervous: First time someone else will be able to say if the games any good. This is one reason I don't go for Early Access. I don't want to take money for something that's not finished and then... what if the game sucks?

Godot 4.5 is now out and you know what that means: Thursday, I'll begin wrapping up my current tasks for Saturday Morning Marble Game, upgrade, test and package everything and then I will start with a playtest for all those who want to test the game.

Pre-ordered Mario Galaxy 1 & 2, Metroid Prime 4 and its amiibo and I love how much free stuff Nintendo tosses in with those orders. ❤️

And there it is: Fata Deum - The God Sim is now available on GOG in its early access and with a 20% discount! 🎉 👉 bit.ly/4lsvE5Z Inspired by the classic god games of old, this title looks absolutely fantastic, and we’re thrilled to welcome it to our catalog. Check it out now!

I like Unreal, but damn is it bloated. "How bloated is it, 8Bit?" Unreal is so bloated, Al Bundy feels compelled to apologize to all the ladies who ever came to his shoe store. Unreal is so bloated, I feel bad for taking shots at it, but it's impossible to miss!

Updated my physics interpolation script. Physics interpolation is now integrated into Godot, but I still maintain it. This time I improved the logic that skips interpolation if FPS < PTPS or if transform hasn't changed. 8bit-memories.com/projects/god... #godotengine

I just realized in all my efforts to make Marble Game gamepad-compatible, I never scaled "looking" via gamepad by FPS and so... the look speed changed with FPS. Ever since I fixed about 5000 of such issues in the Descent engine, I vowed this would never happen to me. And yet, here I am.

Remember a few years ago when the tech bros shouted how you could transfer a gun from Call of Duty over to Minecraft with the power of the blockchain without ever remotely addressing how that would work? I still laugh about that sometimes.

I have to remind myself that we had a games and comics about a Native American time-traveling warrior fighting dinosaurs, aliens, mutants with guns and/or magic but then some dipshit bought the IP and went "let's do generic Space Marine John Turok. That's better".
