I gave my top a lazer that eats health like a vampire. The enemy decided to try multiplying. Who do you think won? #gamedev #indiegame #godot #indiedev #lasers

i don't know who decided a vampire laser was a fair ability but i'd like a word XD #gamedev #indiegame

#Mayterials Last one for the year :sad: Zen. Went classic. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

my top has homing missiles that literally track the enemy. almost lost to a top that just shoots everywhere. precision is apparently overrated #gamedev #indiegame #gaming #godot #indiedev

#Mayterials Only 2 left! Taboo for this one. Decided on a field of BONES! Spooky.. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

i gave my top a laser. i also gave it a shield. just in case. not sure the other top agrees this was fair Adding new VFX to the game! So Shiny #indiegame #gamedev #godot

#Mayterials Makeshift wall defense. Too many scratches but maybe a cat attacked them @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

#Mayterials Organized tiles. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

#Mayterials #11 Verdant! Just went with the classic today @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

#Mayterials #10 PUTRID. Tried to go gross without too gross haha. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

Chain Lightning vs cloning. Performs like Electric vs Water types... I didn't think that one threw XD #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #godot #roguelike

Giving all 3 tops teleport was certainly a choice XD #gamedev #indiegame

#Mayterials #9 SCRAWLED. Pretty sure everyone on the planet did graffiti for this one XD @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

#Mayterials Academy. Got a magic book of some sort this time around. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

My top made itself some friends... That's one way to do it? XD #indiegame #gamedev #godot #indiedev

#Mayterials Desolate. Nothing like some worn-down concrete. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

Gave my sad taped-up top a shield to hope it could put up a fight vs proximity mines. It tried its best but ended up not being enough. #indiegame #gamedev #godot #gaming #indiedev

#Mayterials Number 6! This one was a rough one, but we are doing our best XD @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

Gave my top a grappling hook and it's just... swinging around in there. I don't think it has a plan. #indiegame #gamedev #godot #gaming #indiedev

#Mayterials Marine! Went with a stylized ocean floor type experience. Not totally happy with the starfish, but managed to fit a lot into this one. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

sent my top to fight Gary, but he had cannons, spikes, and no mercy. i had, uhhh, tape? >.> #indiegame #gamedev #gaming #indiedev #godot

#Mayterials CHISELED. Went with some fancy wood carving. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

Playing a little coin collection event in my spinning top game. Why she gotta embarrass me like that? #indiegame #gamedev #godot #gaming #indiedev

Your top takes damage if you miss the bullseye.. Worth the risk? #gamedev #indiegame #godot #indiedev

#Mayterials #3 Terrestrial! Went just with some good old dry earth for this one. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

My top won a fight and now we need to pick the next ability. Not sure which one to go with... #gamedev #indiegame #godot #gaming #indiedev #roguelike

the shield + wall ride + lightning combo might be cracked. my top just casually 1v2'd #indiedev #gamedev #gaming #indiegames #godot

#Mayterials Part 2! Went with some extra colorful tiles this time. @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

I think my tops are flirting. they've been doing laps for a while now. i'm not sure they remember they're supposed to be fighting #gamedev #indiegame #godot #gaming #indiedev

It's #Mayterials!! One of my favorite months! So all my #gamedev content will be spliced with materials. Shoutout #MaterialMaker for being so dang good. For Industrial went with a Manhole Cover, might have overdone the damage... @theclubdiscord.bsky.social

built a roguelike tournament for spinning tops. there are branching paths, arena fights, a card draft, shops, and events i'm still not sure about. i think i went overboard. #gamedev #indiegame #godot #indiedev

One shoots missiles. The other one just... leaves? teleporting away from your problems is apparently a valid combat strategy. XD Which one will win? #gamedev #indiegames #indiedev #godot #gaming

my tops just drifted around doing nothing. gave the player a way to program the top's brain. first fully programmed fight used shields, missiles, and portals in sequence. What type of actions would you add? #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #godot #roguelike

every comment on my last post said the same thing.. the hits have no weight. watched it back and couldn't unsee it. added freeze frames and a camera zoom on impacts. now i can't believe i ever thought it was fine without them. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #godot #roguelike

couldn't tell what was happening with my programs because fights lasted four seconds. nothing visible was happening. slowed them down and it was running a perfect strategy the entire time. What do you think? Are the fights better lasting a bit longer? #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #godot #roguelike

programmed a slam attack for one-on-one fights. tested it against four enemies instead. i don't think my top noticed there were four. #gamedev #indiegame #indiedev #godot #roguelike #spinningtop

tops used to just appear in the arena. now they drop from above. i've restarted the same fight six times. not because it's hard. because the entrance looks too good. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming

gave my top a ripcord launcher. pull back, rip forward, top enters the arena. i've been testing this for an hour. i can't stop. this is a problem. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming

taught my enemies to clone themselves. the arena filled up in seconds. i won on the third try and i'm still not sure how. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming

taught my top to dodge. taught my top about explosives. my top came up with the rest on its own. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming

gave enemies the ability to break apart when they lose. my top treated this as encouragement. my top smashed everything. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming

my top vanishes... my top reappears behind enemies... my top has been watching anime? #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming #anime

my top had a plan. my top had new graphics. my top had about 8 seconds. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming

my top doesn't have feelings. my top had feelings today. my top no longer has enemies. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming

posted placeholder art for 21 days. kept telling myself "ship it ugly." it uh, was not good enough. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #indiegamedev #gaming

gave my top a grappling hook for defense. it is now reeling in enemies like fish. i have made a mistake #indiegames #gamedev #godot #gaming #indiedev

programmed my top to defend itself. it discovered electricity. i am no longer in control. #gamedev #indiegames #godot #indiedev #gaming

@sounderatheart.com Can you do like a tiny rant to the front office about how defaulting to assuming season ticket holders DON'T want a scarf is insulting to 17 years of being a season ticket holder? My wall will forever be missing the scarf for this year because I missed 1 email.. @soundersfc.com

slowed down the impact frame by frame because i think it's beautiful and no one can stop me #indiegames #gamedev #godot #indiedev

my top rides walls and shoots lasers. basically a tiny death star with anger issues. #indiegames #gamedev #godot #gaming #indiedev
