Bad timing for a dying PC I guess. I think my PC is starting to reach the end of its lifespan and the prices for RAM are crazy. Dont think I am able to afford a PC with these prices. Its frustrating because I need one for my studies, so idk what to do here. 300€ for a RAM kit is crazy.

I had this literally a year ago already, guess I have to spam support tickets to get a human to look at this lol. So yeah, I am banned on discord, everything is read only and all my accounts got hit. What the heck?

Im honestly a bit frustrated about the fact that GSA is hosting their speedrun summit even at the exact same weekend as Flame Fatales. I researched it a bit and the event itself was announced quite a bit later than Flame Fatales. Kind of sad to see really.

Nuclear Throne update 100 is launching for free on Steam on December 5th, bringing you: - C-skins for all 13 characters. - Custom difficulty mode. - Localization, 60+ fps support & many more quality of life features.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=SZSi... - Farewell to Timmy Day 2025...also known as Timmy Day 3. (Yes I purposely misled with the 2025 thing, it continues the lore in subtle ways hehe...) See you again, someday, somewhere, space boy (and space cat). #TimmyDay #AHatinTime

So for Timmy Day I made a rotcore shitpost golf platformer game (wow thats a mouthful). If you want to play it, its available in the browser and on Windows/Linux. Go get golfing: matse007.itch.io/timmy-golf Also curious to see if you manage to 100% the game.

Holy shit this is so peak. I love modding

#TimmyDay2025 Is now LIVE. Let's have some fun guys. Thank you all for the support. Let's do this!!!!!! 😎🌀 www.twitch.tv/jakiekun

Pretty excited. Got something cooked up for it as well ;)

I cant put it into words really but the new ESA merch shirt looks so uncanny. It genuinely looks AI generated. There are so many elements that are usually results from genAI or genAI tools and not cleaned up properly. I sincerely hope that it is just a human error but I fear they actually used genAI

Also one last thing before I head to bed, I never had to worry about audio normalization before. And as I have quite a lot of sfx in my game, I had to do a lot of audio normalization. And I really have to learn how to make music eventually. And finally learn how to use a DAW properly.

Man I cant wait to show you what I got cooked up for Timmy Day. Its truly magnificent how much effort I put into this shitpost fangame that is quite a lot of fun. See you at the stream.

Actually curious, are there any musicians/composers out there who do commisions? I genuinely dont know where to get started and how you approach music especially in a fangame situation. I have 0 idea how expensive stuff like that gets. When i was looking for music, I found nothing that I could use.

I wish i could make music, especially as I worked on my entry for Timmy Day I knew what type of music i wanted but I am Just lacking the skills to make the music :(

Hey. Me and my team finished our game for this years GMTK GameJam! You can check it out here: momiji-studio.itch.io/last-mile I spent a lot of time to also do a lot of narrative design and actually themed the itch page this time around. Very happy with the end result and what we did in ~48h.

I forgot i set myself an alarm for when the grades are our for this semester. Well, I passed the hardest exam with the second best possible grade. I was so stressed out about computer graphics but I am more than just happy with the end result now haha.

A personal goal of mine is to hopefully join the Valkyrie Jam in the next year or years. Would be a dream. Hopefully I can do it.

Playing Wheel World again on stream: www.twitch.tv/matse007

Soo, tomorrow evening ill be doing a stream. Has been some time but I am already excited to get back into it. Some casual relaxing video gaming.

I spent the last year giving 400%, going to every networking event, working on my projects with barely giving myself any breaks, organizing way too ambitious events with too few people, desperately trying to find an internship and now that I found a potential one I realized this: Im burnt out.

Since beginning of this year I have been eagerly waiting for Wheel World by @messhof.bsky.social and only a couple days are left until I can finally play it. Ohh I am so excited to play it and speedrun it. Especially as a bike enthusiast the demo already blew me away with the great sound design.

GermanDevDays have been amazing. I am so glad I went there. While I could not find an Internship opportunity, i met so many amazing devs and likeminded people. I learned a lot aswell. Also, I got my first badge for a professional event! I cant wait to go again next year :>

Mandatory internship search has been quite rough. I applied to so many different companies yet I got ghosted by most and the rest all had no available internships. I did not expect that, especially considering I already finished an apprenticeship. I hope I can find something or else I waste a year.

This a longshot but after seeing Ross new video about the Stop Killing Games initiative ill try to spread this a bit further. You signing the initiative has an impact. Please share this with your friends and family. Especially in non english speaking countries. eci.ec.europa.eu/045/public/#...

Working on an entry for Timmy Day and not sure what to make? Let Timmy help you out! #TimmyDay #AHatinTime

Timmy Day is a fan driven modding event to celebrate the character Timmy from A Hat In Time. Fans gather for a two month period to create playable mods, fan art, and various forms of media related to the character.

Bored of a mundane existence of playing video games and eating trash, Timmy has returned! Join him on a thrilling space adventure curated by us and created BY YOU! Timmy Day is Back! #Ahatintime www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q4g8...

I just saw a YouTube video using freaking ChatGPT as a source, you cannot make this up. AHHHHHHHHHHH

Anyways, here is it in action, used the Gobot model from GDQuest to test it out as I still had it on my hand. Love how flexible the combination is. Outline is done in post processing with a quad attached to the camera using sobel. Models all share the same material but have different settings.

You cant imagine how much pain it was to "just" have outlines. Its honestly a miracle but I also do understand what I did. 4 weeks ago I opened this can of worms and thought to myself "Edgedetection cant be hard". Lack of documentation be like "Hold my beer". Honestly. Godot Shader docs are rough.

I wanna stream really badly but I am drowning in work, math gods please bless me so i can finish this shader tyvm.

So I worked a couple of hours on my project. Finally got math on certain components right, moved some aspects to more suitable and fitting components and suddenly my entire navigation is broken? And it seems like it cannot be fixed. 😔 Welp, there goes all those hours

I indeed had a strawberry cake today. It has been a blessed day.

🎂🎈

Rare post of project progress. This is maybe not a lot to you but I managed to implement custom costs for navigation that I can switch through depending on the pedestrian AI state (such as panicked etc). But for a more visual thing, I made ragdolls and we all know ragdolls = funny.

I made a couple of shaders now in GLSL and I thought, hey lets go implement them in Godot and then I realize that its infact not easy and I have to think about so many other moving parts compared to "just the low level implementation" especially with the amount of materials and other shaders.

It has been quite interesting to me modelling game AI. Its such an interesting break from normal implementation to just think how an NPC should think, act and feel and then formulate this and put those feelings, those behaviours into words and ultimatively into a ruleset that you can then implement.

Been cooking up some portfolio updates. Currently working on getting the Neighboorhood Watch game blog updated a bit, adding some gameplay webms and I also want to add Waiting for Disaster as well. Afterwards I can hopefully work on fleshing out the AI model a bit more for the game.

Hey, Godot/gamejam fans! I made a template to start jams and small games just a little faster! github.com/bushmin/Nozo... Main menu/game/pause/end screen, a couple of utils, clear structure/architecture, and a couple of bonuses for curious ones. Feel free to use and share! #GodotEngine #gamedev

Been given the okay sign to work on shaders as my math paper project this semester. Very glad I got this sorted out. As I am now very busy with a lot of projects, I gotta take a small break from speedrunning. Will still submit for Dokomi, but rn I have to focus on IRL things and internship hunt.

Everything works again and i finally have a working scaling 3d arrow. Gonna replace it eventually with an antenna but for now this will do. Im actually not sure if I ever showed this game before. There is still so much to do in this prototype(audio, NPC AI, proper particles etc.) but it feels good.

Been stressing out over sending out applications and posting in discord servers about my internship search. With so much to do currently with university projects, I get a tad overwhelmed. On the bright side, the convention this weekend showed me, I really need to look at C++ again. Time to derust!

In an hour i get to showcase Skylar & Plux Any % at GGBavaria. Its probably a farewell for now from this speedgame. I ran it for 8 years and I love it but I think its time for something else. Idk what yet but i'll think of something. You will find the Stream on twitch.tv/germench Its in German.

I just got incredibly scared because I opened the wrong backup of an UE5 project i worked on last semester and everything was broken. I didn't fully realize that I opened the wrong copy until half an hour later. Oops. At least I found the right version now. I probably should polish this game up.

Umm this might be a very odd request, but I am currently working on designing my own business cards for me to hand out during events and I am curious how other game devs have designed their business cards, so if you can I would highly appreciate it if you could share me a picture of your design.

A tad late but I participated at the PULS GameJam this year. My team and me made this little game. Very proud of what we managed to make in 48 hours. aliviessa.itch.io/waiting-for-...

I love speedrunning www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGVx...

I managed to finally record a video tutorial for the usage of the tool. If you prefer a video tutorial, feel free to check it out: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkgn...

6 days before the big gamejam I was waiting for all year and I got sick with a laryngitis. Im so sad and heartbroken about this. I hope I can participate again next year. This is so frustrating :(
