#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Vendors WIP.

Last year, miHoYo copied my puzzle game Ouros in Zenless Zone Zero. Because they are a recognized, billion-dollar studio and my game isn't well known, some people are now assuming that their version is the original, and mine is the clone. I hope this video clears that up.

For people who think that AI is inevitable or worry it is, I made starter packs of game devs refusing to use AI, and in less than 24 hours had more than 200 devs ask to be included. Creatives don't want this and won't use it. You just need to support those who won't use it.

If I were a con man, I'd set up a twitter account & make multiple predictions about upcoming events. I'd delete any "prediction" that didn't come true. My post history now just has lots of predictions that came true with a post date *before* the event. Then I'd hire myself out as a Predictionist.

#IndieDevLog Hi to all my recent new followers! If you have an questions or thoughts about the stuff you see me making let me know! I've been a systems dev for a long time, but a game dev for only a few years and am always learning new things. What cool things are you working on?

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieGameDev #ImSim You can't make an imsim without crawlspaces!

It's 30+ 'C in Sheffield, in May. I am not built for this. The UK is not built for this.

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Equipping items work in progres...

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Lights and switches...

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Every game that has inventories of moderate size should have the ability to search / filter. It's trivial to implement. *glares at No Man's Sky in particular

A bunch of new cool stuff is coming to next week's Asset Forge update including mirroring, gizmo improvements and the ability to quickly toggle snapping! kenney.nl/tools/asset-...

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Hmm.. there's another one. I should warn @kenney one of his Oopi's has escaped!

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Found this while exploring the crew quarters. I wonder what it does...

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim - A quick demo of crafting and healing. I start with a level 3 bleed effect (reduces health over time). I make some bandages. Applying a level 1 bandage reduces the potency of the effect. Additional applications reduce potency till the effect is removed.

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim I am here...

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Now I have flushing toilets, I guess I can call my ImSim feature complete ;-)

#GodotEngine #Godot #IndieDevLog #Imsim #HashtagOverload It's really starting to come together now :-) Working on crafting. I did Chemistry 'O' Level at school. I'm currently relearning Chemistry, because I've not used it since school :-/

#Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Down in waste processing (testing the concept and Jolt. The pipe gets stuck :-( )...

#Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim. Looks like the ladders in Sector ZZ-Plural-Alpha are out... Ladders weren't as difficult as I was anticipating. WTF Bethesda?

#Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim I've been so deep in code while I nailed the core systems, and learned about Godot a bit more deaply I've almost forgotten what it's like to build levels and take pretty screenshots...

#Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Currently having a proper think about ladders...

#Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim Today has been a UI day...

Anyway, a good tool I found out about is MubLoop. It's free and helps create seamless looping sounds. I tried it, works really well and is now part of my toolset for upcoming audio assets! Check it out: mubdev.itch.io/mubloop

I should get a sponsorship deal from Kenco Coffee. I basically just a machine that turns it into code...

#Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim I've been dreading writing the code to persist my game (save / load). Until I started, and then it all fell into place:

#Godot #IndieDevLog #ImSim A quick showcase of my updated move and physics code: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGdt...

#Godot #IndieDevLog Im Sim development back online. I've re-written the physics for holding and moving stuff after deep diving how OG System Shock 2 did it. It's not a *real* imsim until you can stack boxes!

@kenney.nl Have you seen these mate? eclair-assets.itch.io

Just Derbyshire (Hathersage) casually being a AAA fantasy environment like it's no big deal...

If you like cooking / food, watch this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=THNb... It's like watching a swiss watch tick under a microscope. It's pretty much the only "cooking" channel I follow. Great lads, great food, great vibe <3

Photon just shared a game sample for their @godotengine.org multiplayer solution featuring my Starter Kit! doc.photonengine.com/fusion-godot...

#Godot #IndieDev #ImSim Working on interactions: - Drag and drop healing - Chests / Containers - Crafting Benches - Doors / Locks - Switches

#Godot #IndieDev #Imsim Fiddling with interface things. Putting some icons and colour in. You can now heal heath, poison and bleeding. Drag and drop between inventories is working. Crating screen is coming together.

#Godot #IndieDev Back at work on my #ImSim. I can now drag healing items to effects to cure them. Here I cure some moderate bleeding by applying a bandage.

One use for LLMs is to write commit messages. git add --all git diff HEAD | clip.exe copies the diff to your clipboard - paste that into an llm with the prompt: "Sum up this git diff for {project description}. Group by feature. Format the output for use as a git commit message:

I just don't get Vibe Coding. Coding is the fun part! What would I want to automate that?

Starter Kit Match-3 for @godotengine.org is out now! It's a basic open-source implementation of the popular puzzle game type, perfect as a base. #gamedev github.com/KenneyNL/Sta...

@cookiebadger.bsky.social you dropped this 🫴 👑

The Daiquiris are on me! www.numbeo.com/cost-of-livi...

Starter Kit: Racing for @godotengine.org is now available! 🎉 Easy to understand code, fully open-source & 3D models included! It's a little rough around the edges, but feel free to do pull requests if you can improve on it! github.com/KenneyNL/Sta... #gamedev #gameassets

The author of the Quicksort algorythm (amongst many other CS fundamentals) has passed away :-( RIP Tony Hoare. blog.computationalcomplexity.org/2026/03/tony...

WTF! When did *this* start happening!? Wikipedia is supposed to be a factual, reference resource! We are poisoning the water supply! This will get scraped by other LLMs, and the enshitification will spiral.

Can we stop calling it "Vibe Coding" and call it what it really is? "Technical Debt Development"

If you want solar panels to be widely adopted in the UK and stop the NIMBY's from complaining - make them look like Union Jacks instead of black. They are less efficient, but it would top 80%* of complaints immediately. * Stat made up on the spot because this is the internet

Being offended by the Bafter 'N' word outburst is like being offended because you dropped a bunch of scrabble tiles and it spelled out a naughty word.

Going over some hikes I've done in the past as I plan hikes for this year. Here's the view from Haystacks in the Lake District: maps.app.goo.gl/rC5GPBHnz5hj... It was right here I found out I had developed Acrophobia after an ear infection and was the last high trail I did.

www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/c... Can't they just type "Claud, fix this please" ? I mean that's how it's supposed to work right? Because we don't need coders anymore.

I've had two coding discussions this morning with people who turned out to be vibe coders. One didn't know the crucial difference between repeat-until and a while loop. The other wanted me to phrase his prompt for him because he lacked the technical skill. I am getting SO tired of this
