I'm testing the display of probabilities during combat. Is it a nice to have? #gamedev #godotengine

Testing different combat parameters right now. Really want to add a "leap for the throat" skill for my little rodent. Someone stop me from overscoping. 😅 #gamedev #indiegame

Working on balance: a small change and tough guys are not a challenge anymore... I'm going to fix that. 💀 #gamedev #rpg #roguelike

I'm starting to think the best move for my game is an early access release, just with translations to start, then new features in updates. It'd help me avoid overscoping, and player feedback would keep me focused! #gamedev #indiedev

Working on abilities that can trigger on specific events during combat. 👊It'll add some interesting combos/variations from potions, items, etc. #gamedev #indiegames #screenshotsaturday

Language dynamic swap was not working in my game. Today I switched all items to their own resource files and got it for free. 😎Nice. #gamedev #indiegame #madewithgodot

I like to group data structures in one file. But with translations with Godot, you're guided to split in resource files. Maybe it'll come as handy. #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine

Almost 2000 lines for one language translation of my game. Wow, quite a lot for a small game! 📜 #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine

Still working on my game’s translation: turns out it’s trickier than expected! 😅 Hoping I didn’t accidentally dive into scope creep. #solodev #godotengine

Added some pictures to the random encounters. First, it looks nice. And also, it allows quick play as you know where you are in one look. #gamedev #indiegame #rpg #godotengine #screenshotsaturday

After a few months off, development is back on track! Working on translations atm. #gamedev #indiegame #rpg

Wrote my own voxel loader and greedy mesher in gdscript. Multiple threads, even a start of lod support. That was fun! #gamedev #godotengine #screenshotsaturday

Playing with side projects... Testing voxel engines with Godot. Works even on iGPU. #gamedev #godotengine #screenshotsaturday

Working on story elements to bring more variability in the runs. Here finding a strange artefact may be a blessing or a curse...😈 #gamedev #indiegame #rpg

I'm always looking for feedback and ways to find if the players are having fun. One way is through stats analysis. Here we are looking at play time... One player spent a lot of hours on the demo, nice! #gamedev #indiegame #steam

💡If you are running for the leaderboards in Noon Stone, you will find the reset button handy. For example here, I use it several times until I find the city I'm looking for. It only takes a few seconds. 🧠 #gamedev #indiegame #screenshotsaturday

Every now and then, I launch my python script, which fetches the global Steam stats for my game and display them. 👀 Here, the number of players. #gamedev #indiegame

Testing the macOS version. Seems OK except for the blank window at startup... 😠🔍 #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine

+670 wishlists during #SteamNextFest. This is cool. One thing though, I should have put the demo on a separate page to gather feedback. I will leave the demo for at least 2 weeks. #gamedev #indiegames

Text noise experiment #2: use noise + sine displacement in the shader. Much better. (effect amplified here to dazzle the audience) (goal: hand written effect) #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine

Implemented a little something to print basic stats about my game in Godot. Result: average performance. #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine

Easy addition, a mouse cursor. Streams of the game will be easier to follow now with a big cursor! #gamedev #indiegames #screenshotsaturday

When you think the first place of the leaderboard will no longer change, and a player smashes your game's record... 🤯 #gamedev #indiegame #rpg

🎉 Noon Stone just hit 500 wishlists on Steam! Thank you so much for the support it means a lot as a solo dev. #gamedev #solodev #SteamNextFest

Massive effect of #SteamNextFest on my game's expositions, and on visits to a lesser extent. 🤯 #gamedev #indiegames

Wow, #SteamNextFest brings a lot of players... I'm looking also closely at the wishlists... 👀 #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine

I will be participating to #SteamNextFest with Noon Stone. Right now recording some Steam streams. #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine

What about animated gifs in the Steam page ? Looks like it's mandatory. 🎞️I'm still looking for the right tool. #gamedev #indiegames #oldschool

A short run sped up 2x. ⏩ I’m wondering if that could work for a Steam gameplay video. #gamedev #indiegames #screenshotsaturday

Trying to make the message around difficulty clear: below champion difficulty, no achievements. 🥇 #gamedev #indiegames #rpg

Just updated Steam achievements one by one for the demo, phew. Too bad there's no button copy from playtest...🤔 #gamedev #indiedev #steam

Have you wishlisted Noon Stone yet? No pressure… just my entire career depends on it 😅 #gamedev #indiedev #solodev

I'm starting to fill out the Steam News section for Noon Stone! Here's a devlog where I share what I've been cooking up (figuratively, of course).👀🧑‍🍳 #gamedev #indiedev #solodev store.steampowered.com/news/app/364...

There will be mini stories on tiles. In one, you may get lost in the fog... and find yourself in a random location! I'm having fun with these small things. 🤭 #gamedev #indiegames #ttrpg

I'm also working on scrolls of enchantment for weapons. 📜I've added so many things that I fear for the stability of the game... 😅 #gamedev #indiegames #rpg

New items. New powers. And yes, post-it style tooltips. This upcoming demo packs a serious punch! #gamedev #indiegames #screenshotsaturday

Someone told me recently to add noise to my text. Well, I tried and I'm not satisfied... 😅 #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine

So happy to be this week's official #TurnBasedThursday host 🥳 Your turn to shine #GameDev #IndieDev, reply with your #turnbased games; use the hashtag! ☝ Love #turnbased games? ♥ / 🔃 great games in the replies and @ who should be in! RPGs, strategy, sims, all welcome!

I'm very happy with my new refactoring (of internal data structures). It will be easier to add events now. #gamedev #indiegames #turnbased #rpg

In parallel of new abilities, I'm introducing random events during travel 🗺️ which may give abilities and new stuff. Prototype state for now (here the old hermit encounter). #gamedev #indiegames #rpg

Working on effects/abilities for heroes and items. I'm sure it will add more fun and variety to the game! 🥳 #gamedev #indiegames #godotengine

I'm a solo dev and yeah, I check my GitHub activity graph way too often. Every little boost helps! #solodev #gamedev

Rework difficulty + show this setting in the stat block. Unlocking Steam achievements/leaderboards is only enabled from the Champion difficulty onwards for true glory. 🤺 #gamedev #indiegames #screenshotsaturday

Sometimes, your run starts with the rarest tile! 😎 #indiedev #indiegames #godotengine #monochromeRPG

After almost 2 weeks of hard work, a major update for my open playtest. 💪New: Steam leaderboards & achievements, new rules. Please give feedback 🥹 #gamedev #indiegames #blackandwhite #rpg store.steampowered.com/news/app/364...

I added a new reset 'hold to confirm' button. Start a new run in 0.6s! #indiedev #indiegames #turnbased

A quick excerpt from the gameplay trailer. Planning to rework it soon. #gamedev #indiegames #trailertuesday

Linktree or Carrd? Here is my attempt at social links: reddernoon.carrd.co

Adding Steam achievements. Trying to unlock them adds fun to the game.🎉Especially when it unlocks new behaviour. WIP #indiegames #gamedev #roguelite

Steam leaderboards are in! 💪 Shown here with test data but once the next version goes live, real scores from players in the wild will start flowing in! #screenshotsaturday #indiegames #indiedev #godotengine
