Just makin' sure I can still art a little bit

Refactored the battle logic and figured out a better way to handle 2D sprites in a 3D world with rotatable camera. The neat thing is I only need 2 versions of each animation: front and back facing. I can flip either of those horizontally to account for the other two angles #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Our president is a fascist and those who support him are as well

Been trying to draw a little more recently as I've been struggling to latch onto a new game project. Here's a couple Trapezoids in perspective boxes. Gotta push myself to draw more kinds of stuff though.

Up to 5 reviews for Critter Drifters (although there's actually 7, dunno what that's about) All positive so far! With some fair criticisms too, but I'm pretty happy with the consensus so far. If you've played it, please consider leaving a review! Getting to 10 makes Steam boost it in the algorithm.

Can we just take a minute and acknowledge that our POTUS is right OUT IN THE OPEN lobbying Congressional members to vote against releasing the Epstein files?! Like... what the fuck else does anyone even need to know?

Now that Critter Drifters is out, I've been spending more time on the "what next?" question. Still exploring ideas, but I'm finding myself drawn to a casual RPG with turn-based battles. Think a mix of Mario+Rabbids, Paper Mario, and Final Fantasy Tactics. #godot #gamedev #indiedev

New update is live! See notes here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/375...

Post launch update coming for Critter Drifters later today. Mostly just tweaking levels and reducing friction points where it wasn't as obvious where to go.

Code is cheap. Of course this is a nuanced topic but I generally feel this way.

I am drunk on power after realizing Godot lets you embed textures in RichTextLabels, and well... ViewportTextures are textures. 🤯 #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

I would love to make a casual RPG like Paper Mario one day. But that is very, VERY daunting. So what I'm doing is making a bare bones "engine" without any graphical polish, characters, or story consideration. Given enough time and effort, maybe something will come of it! #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Hey check out this awesome kart racer I did a few music tracks for!!! It's super fun!!! 😁

If you play my game, please consider leaving a review. Getting to 10 reviews (good or bad) is huge on Steam for visibility, so I'd really appreciate it!

Trump tries to build a fake wall of inevitability around everything he does. Today, voters - literally from sea to shining sea - broke through all that, and this is just the beginning.

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.

Critter Drifters is OUT on Steam! You can play it! On Windows or Linux or Steamdeck! Right now!! Or you know...whenever you want to. I'm just glad I can finally let people play the whole thing. store.steampowered.com/app/3755680/... #godot #gamedev #indiedev #steam #CritterDrifters

I've gotten several emails today asking for steam keys for my game. All likely scams, but the funny thing is how easy they are to spot because they don't even attempt to talk about the game itself -- just insert its name into an obvious template that gets sent to just-released games.

Pretty happy with how Next Fest went. Wishlists were doubled! Of course that's easier the less you have to start with, but still :P #gamedev #indiedev

Made one more "biggish" update to the Critter Drifters demo today (mostly just small tweaks to level geometry). Probably the last one aside from a few more tweaks to non-demo levels for the full release. Only two more weeks! store.steampowered.com/app/3755680/... #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Chris Murphy: "This is a country that's falling apart because Trump is in the middle of an authoritarian takeover. We're not on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We're in the middle of it ... I have no moral obligation to vote for a budget that literally funds the destruction of our democracy"

Bring as many American flags to No Kings as you can.

Quick sketch I made after playing a little bit of Critter Drifters (a kart racing game made by @doodle.arcticpolygon.com). Definitely excited for the full game.

It's nice to see some hockey stick action in this graph. Goes to show how much being in #NextFest or other events makes a difference. I unfortunately missed out on the racing game one a couple months ago but I'm pretty happy with how this is going so far.

#SteamNextFest is here and I want to see what #GodotEngine games are joining. Or if you're just working on something cool, share in the replies!

Rhombus only knows so much because Trapezoid asks him too many questions #art #comic #ArcticPolygon

Only a couple days til Next Fest! I updated the demo to end off in the main hub of the game recently, as I realized it ended kind of abruptly otherwise. Also made it so you get that beautiful tire screech even without drifting when doing a super boost :P #steam #nextfest #gamedev #indiedev #godot

Less than a week til Steam Next Fest. I've been tweaking the demo almost every day for a couple weeks now, including changes to the courses themselves but also just polish and general game feel. I'm excited! store.steampowered.com/app/3755680/... #indiedev #godot #gamedev #steam

I had fun with some of these "informational" signposts throughout the hub world store.steampowered.com/app/3755680/... #gamedev #indiedev #godot

If this spirals any further, remember this.
