www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025... I lack the words to express my disgust.

A novice can get an enemy to fire a bullet in #Godot in about half an hour. A veteran will take a week. #indiedev math

Listening to my partner rubber duck to me about the bed frame she's planning on #woodworking from scratch finally gives me empathy for the blank stare she gives me when I'm verbally working through a #gamedev problem or design concept #audhd

Skye and Jenson were getting married. Even though the ideology they follow actively encourages #polyamory, I thought Umeko would at least be a little put off- The vomit hadn't even been cleaned off the floor from Umeko and Jenson's wedding the day before. #rimworld #stories (1/8)

Me: Oh god, another #Jubilee debate... But that topic is interesting... Me 16 minutes later: Ew, that was all spectacle and no substance- the format should let the participants finish a single thought, hated that. Jubilee: Yeah but next video, you get to watch Dr. Mike take on anti-vaxxers Me:

Progress in fixing my ability system to work better with #Godot nodes is going good. Slow, careful, but good. I've taken to journaling my coding changes, so that I have notes when I lose my place in the project. It feels weird keeping those notes in a physical journal, but it really helps. #indiedev

Dear two-months-ago-me: #Godot 's Resources and Nodes have reasons for being different things, and if you don't want all your Fireballs to store their targets in to a group hive mind array, you should probably not over-use the resource system... #indiedev #fails

So I have my #larp snacks down to a science. Nature's Bakery Brownie Bars for fiber, beef jerky strips for protein and something savory, and Nerds gummy clusters because I'm actually four six year olds in a trench coat.

I'm pretty sure the only way I'm making any #indiedev progress this year is if I make Monster Hunter: Wilds my reward for hitting playable on my first #Godot project. Otherwise I'm gonna be writing all my code in very garish, unsustainably sourced, gorgeous monster armor... in like a year.

I'm behind on my Facebook Exodus- was hoping to be completely off platform at end of February, but I just had a little too much going on. Also, converting all of my contacts in to Signal and Discord friends has been a little longer than I thought. Still, pulled all my data and secured it at least!

Time to get to work! Do you listen to music when you code? What's your favorite kick off track? #indiedev #gamedev #gobbincore #godot

#indiedev #gamedev Finally got my ability system's structure working properly! This also includes the health and stat system I put together. Making the code modular and extensible definitely made this more complicated, but I can't wait to see what I can do with this system I've built for myself.

Commute on a normal sunny Monday: 55-65 minutes. Commute on a Monday where the snow has put the fear of God in to everyone, and we're all going 45 mph: 35 minutes.

I'm inching forward on the #Godot framework I'm building! Right now my focus is the modular ability system- I scripted my first effect, and I'm working on the targeter system. Those are the two halves that allow for this system to be the underlying engine for like, any of the 2D games I want to make

So I'm working on my first #godot game, which I'm pitching as a pet catching #streaming community engagement game. The idea is streamers can run this game on the bottom portion of their stream, and their fans can adopt pets. The twist is the game regularly does "events" where the cute pets compete.

Story of my life right here...

I'm grappling with quitting Facebook. Ever since their rules got changed to allow users to call trans and gay folx mentally ill, I just can't look at it the same way. It was an intentional choice to allow Trump and his lackeys to bully a vulnerable population that is already dealing with too much.

The only music that exists for me right now comes from the #Arcane season 2 OST, and I'm not apologizing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2Rj...

Hey #larp folks off to fun things- I'm out with a non-covid respiratory issue, so I'm gonna opt out of being the larp plaguebringer. Lots of love, have fun without me 😃

The hardest part of #programming for my brain is pausing dev on features, and documenting my progress. I think a lot of my projects failed because I went past my ability to handle complexity without reference. I hope taming the ADHD long enough to keep notes will give much better results. #gamedev

I love #pixelart for the instant gratification. I spend 4 to 5 hours per piece, and I've got an art. #Gamedev on the other hand... I spent 5 hours building the structure of an abstract module that's one aspect of the overall framework that will, in months, generate something I can screenshot. xD

Greetings to the #indiedev #gamedev sphere! I'm a #godotengine developer, working on a generic framework and component library for my projects! My first goal is a twitch interaction game for streamers- just a very easy leg stretch as I learn the engine. Would love to hear from fellow indie devs!

Hi! I'm an amateur #pixelart enthusiast- here are a couple pieces of my work.
