Downloading the android beta just to feel something

Somebody tell me why I shouldn't make my own game laucher/updater right now

I ported the classic flash game Bloxorz to the Game Boy Advance. You can play it now at nostabyte.itch.io/bloxorzgba Anyway, here's the trailer I threw together for it #gamedev

It's weird having a project so small in scope that I might actually finish it this week

I got a GBA SP for Christmas with a flash cart and now I'm running code I wrote this summer on it

It turns out you can snap the LIGHT_VERTEX to the nearest tex coord to make it look like the realtime lighting is baked into the texture. I've been wanting this effect since I saw it in a minecraft shader years ago. Now I'm going to add it to StandardMaterial3D. #godot #gamedev

Has anyone coined a term for when the geometry is really fucked up due to some graphical glitch like this?

I broke it

I got some basic rope physics working. I decided I needed it for the next mechanic I want to add. If you look close enough you can probably figure out how it works. #godot #gamedev

Why did nobody tell me gimp has non destructive editing now? I have been avoiding it for over a decade because of it's workflow so maybe I'll give it another shot.

I made a lot of progress over the long weekend but I would have made more if I didn't make my reflection probe test into a bouncy ball. I have probably spent over an hour just doing this and tweaking parameters. #godot #gamedev

I was looking for something on my drive and found a bunch of screenshots from a project I abandoned 2 years ago. Looking through them is making me want to return to that project again. #godot #gamedev

I want the new steam controller

I made another addon for Godot instead of working on my game... jacobcoughenour.com/posts/gdscri...

I haven't been doing a lot of gamedev this week. I'm almost one week into my usual two week Minecraft phase

don't roll your own auth. it's a trap

I remember buying portal for my white 2010 MacBook from school because my sister and her friend were watching @hankgreen.bsky.social play it. It ran like shit on that MacBook and I only played the first 3 chambers.

The wise man bowed his head and laughed. “Video games have come a long was since Pac-Man” he said, finally.

Wheel World is good

I just figured out you can use the Color Picker tool from PowerToys to debug shader values

My Variant Inspector plugin is now available on the new Godot Asset Store store-beta.godotengine.org/asset/jacob-...

I've been waiting years for the stencil buffer PR to get merged. just in time for me to redo my postprocessing stack with some crisp outlines

I love how extensible the godot editor is. I just threw together this launch profile switcher this morning to make it faster to switch between single player and multiplayer launch settings.

I recreated the animated bars icon you see in every music streaming app in a godot shader. godotshaders.com/shader/now-p...

I spent most of last night making a custom godot editor panel for controlling my relay server. I also made a debug only websocket endpoint on the server so I could add some commands later

Slept for 5 hours, made a full track in fl studio in 4 hours, slept for another 5 hours

I finally updated my site and made a blog. Here's the details: jacobcoughenour.com/posts/intro/

Targeting web for my godot game is forcing me to actually focus on the gameplay since so many of the engine features are not there. The game is actually in a playable state now which is rare for my projects to make it this far.

i never understood why devs write "chore" in their commit messages. like i get it you hate your job but you don't need to whine about it in the git log

all signs point to cooked www.404media.co/microsoft-st...

I dunno dude, I just checked your syslog and it says you have a “grundle overflow”

one of my dreams is to have my music officially added as a playable track in a rhythm game. maybe i can manifest it

my balls

I should make a cloudflare worker that auto-blocks accounts that follow me that are following more than 1k. Most of my notifications are crypto/finance/AI bros auto following me

maybe i will release a game this year (probably not)

I've noticed that the spontaneous tracks that I make in one session are my favorite (and get the most plays). Sure I might add a layer or tweak it over time but if the core isn't there in the first session I should just stop and move on.

Released my first full-length album this week. I spent way too much time on the promo video in blender

I've been taking a break from Godot to finally learn Blender. I figured out how to make cables so now I'm putting them all over my scene.
