I'm working towards v1.2 of Magpie, which is mainly about usability and nice features. One big one is 'code review' - every time you hit run on your code, Magpie snapshots it, and you can review any code you've ever written later on. Here's me flipping through code I wrote in April.

Starting to feel like a space battle now. Some perf issues when lots of bullets in the air - might need to switch from polys to particles. And I need to figure out what role the large command ships will play - currently they just sit there.

We've been working on the updated Seal of Solitomb for a while, so just as a reminder: the original
#pico8
version is still awesome, and still free-to-play here:
krajzeg.itch.io/solitomb
If you haven't played yet and are in the mood to solitaire-up some sweet monster combos, give it a whirl! 🌀

I had to go back to the drawing board, but formation flying looks like it's working now. The large ship is the leader, and flies from waypoint to waypoint. The rest of the squad tries to maintain their relative formation positions.

First time playing Majoras Mask and got inspired by its camera The game has car controls, but an exploration pacing L/Shift > snaps camera behind Hold L/Shift > camera lock, black bars, FOV Now aiming objects is much easier and puts camera control in the player's hands

POV: You're making a small shmup but you have a crippling addiction to world maps. You have a psychological condition that forces you to put world maps in all games you make. The thought of a game without a world map confuses and frightens you.

As you know, my game Rhythm Doggo is the only game that actually can transform whoever plays it into a dog, for real. I have decided to share the human to dog transformation code, so that you can transform humans into dogs too. Check out the game on Steam

I want to quickly clarify (though this could a blog post) that Holly's historian expertise is actually to ensure that the world's mythology and lore remains accurately vague, contradictory, and incomplete. We feel this is more realistic to history as we see it and far more interesting for the game

It's been a while since I released Tad. There've been some minor bugfixes and enemy AI has been tweaked so they only unexpectly attack you from the front. You can play it on itch for free
