I hate @goldquiver.bsky.social and @radiantrodent.bsky.social for using Spine in Godot, but I compiled a custom ARM64 Linux build for it which works on the Anbernic RG34XX-SP. If I can confirm it runs on ArkOS's ancient Linux kernel, may push to Portmaster. goldquiver.itch.io/ono-a-dragon...

Finally implemented CTB turn delay to CnC2. FFX is now outclassed by this framework both because dragons, but also because this actually shows a popup when a creature's delayed so some big enemy attack doesn't just delay everyone four times and kill me without giving me a turn yes I'm mad.

@dreamcube.bsky.social was another victim of worming through the code to prototype Anbernic Portmaster tests of Chirax's Fortress. The game runs fine, but there's some nuance with the current setup (I decomp PCKs for these tests, Blender auto-gltfing don't work well here.) But it's possible.

Screw it. Kao 2 stream. twitch.tv/dinoleafstream

Okay but what if a command pauser and previewer for #ScreenshotSaturday even though I'm supposed to be on weekend break. #dragons #jrpg

For #ScreenshotSaturday. Make your debug tools good. Developed the combat debug menu. Most importantly targeting was refactored to work and now resurrection works. In-game fast-forward is good too. Wishlist on #Steam store.steampowered.com/app/3065270/... #dragons #kobolds #GodotEngine #jrpg

"Can I run FFX HD on Portmaster R36S?" "We have FFX at home" Final Fantasy X fans rejoice as the CTB gauge works in Crop and Claw 2. Combat clip as I've been refactoring menus. Might need a new teaser trailer soon. Wishlist on #Steam store.steampowered.com/app/3065270/... #dragon #jrpg #kobold

#GodotSteam isn't bad, but GDExtension PCK issues made it hard for CnC1 to be exported with conditional Steam support. ARM Linux PCKs required commenting Steam out every update. So I wrote an achievement abstraction that uses Steam only if on a Steam runtime for CnC2 dev.dinoleaf.com/pyral/dl_ach...

More pocket #dinosaur gaming update. Zniw Adventure still baking but Zid Journey also runs on Portmaster. Testing with the Anbernic RG34XX-SP as well since it has more memory. RAM is tight on the 35 with EmulationStation hogging memory on some CFWs. 1GB works well, it just runs OOM.

Pocket #ZniwAdventure. A #dinosaur point 'n click in the palm of your hand. Working with #Portmaster to see if the full game can run on Anbernic's 1GB hardware. 60 FPS on the RG35XX-SP so far. AGS games may be generally portable soon, too. Also buy @zidandzniw.bsky.social's games.

Want to celebrate the end of August in style? Why not in a true dinosaur fashion with Zniw (Adventure mandatory) - currently 20% off on GOG! 🦕💛 www.gog.com/en/game/zniw... (please excuse my programmer edit - graphic design is my passion after all)

When we ask if you want to delete your file, we mean it. Making you feel bad about it with ominous sound effects is just a bonus.

I said it once, so once again: make your #GameDev tools decentish. Debug menu being expanded and now we can manipulate map flags in SRAM. Among other fixes and improvements to make testing faster and more resilient to being locked out of.

For #ScreenshotSaturday, confirming that yes, it is indeed possible to create a #kobold party in #dragon #jrpg Crop and Claw 2. Even if we add nothing else to this, you have a minimum of four party members, each which could be one of five species, and one of five classes. But there'll be more.

Write your own tools when you can for #GameDev or else it sucks. A simple shell script that iterates through indexed PNGs, uses aseprite palettes, and creates palette swap sheets of every combination, since we don't dynamically generates these in the Gorbash framework.

Surprisingly, a two and a half hour dev stream was enough for Crop and Claw 2's keyboard to be written, and it's pretty easily extended. I may tool-ify it sometime. Currently contains English and kanas. Glyphs are stored in a text file and built automatically. No tedious manual building. #dragons

I tend to forget to post that I sometimes stream, either questionably quality games or #gamedev streams for such as #dragon #jrpg Crop and Claw 2, such as this: twitch.tv/dinoleafstream Streams are provided with as-is no-warranty.

Finally stopped being lazy so Crop and Claw 2 can have music commands. RPG Maker 2003 music for placeholder.

I finally snipped out the biggest attack against me from a movie I have extreme anemoia for. Some folks can probably relate.

When developing Crop & Claw, as it was designed to resemble a Famicom/NES JRPG, I'd used a USB NES controller. Crop & Claw 2 isn't strictly a SNES JRPG in looks, but whatever, I've had this SFC USB controller for nearly as long. Normie testing is just a PC Logitech joypad.

Finally made a video form of some 101 for gamedev on Anbernic, TrimUI, G350/R36S, whatever with Portmaster for gluing the mess together. $400+ for hot new game console or $100 for your own dev kit handheld. Also, buy Crop and Claw. youtu.be/rsTrV9QSfsQ #GameMaker #GodotEngine #Love2D #GameDev

For #ScreenshotSaturday, Crop and Claw 2 had combat fixed up. Damage, healing, conditions. Yes, that's the Final Fantasy X CTB gauge on the left. #Steam store.steampowered.com/app/3065270/... #itch dinoleaf.itch.io/crop-and-cla... #dragons #furrygame

For #PitchYaGame: Crop and Claw 2 is a dragon RPG. You play as dragons. Just wishlist it already. #Steam store.steampowered.com/app/3065270/... #itch dinoleaf.itch.io/crop-and-cla...

As it's been a while since a post on here: Crop and Claw 2 is still running decent on RK3326 devices such as the G350. A real R36S is comparable in specs) along with typical Anbernic H700 devices like the RG35XX-SP, running through #Portmaster. #dragon #rpg

Various refactors and gutting a bunch of code for the Gorbash framework. Here's an arbitrary cutscene module for Crop and Claw 2. dinoleaf.com/presskit/cro... Yes. You should still wishlist it on #Steam & #itch. store.steampowered.com/app/3065270/... dinoleaf.itch.io/crop-and-cla... #dragon #rpg

A game totally worth picking up in my book! Also, happy anniversary!

It is also worth reminding Crop and Claw 2 has a steam page up for early wishlisting, with a demo coming eventually and a grander adventure oncoming. #Steam store.steampowered.com/app/3065270?... #itch dinoleaf.itch.io/crop-and-cla... #dragon #jrpg #rpg #furrygame #indiegame

www.twitch.tv/dinoleafstream Ordered a Windows XP laptop for setting up a music production pipeline. Taking the device for a spin and streaming random babby point and click games.

I just realized my last post didn't include the screenshot. Here's one with all units I've for testing. From left to right: - Retroid Pocket Flip 2 (Android) - G350 (PanELEC) - Anbernic RG35XX-SP (Knulli) - Anbernic RG40XX-H (Knulli) All running Crop and Claw. I don't like Android. #IndieGames

Retroid Pocket Flip 2 came in today. Testing Android builds of Crop and Claw but the absolute suffering that is Android's APK setup makes the tricks used for Repaint/Classic overriding annoying. If I don't get it figured out, I'll probably just not care. Future projects _maaaybe_ will be fine.

Tech demo project for #GodotEngine v4.4 on Anbernic RG35XX-SP, using skeleton override for camera-tracking, eye/mouth + pose animation blending, with a single spotlight and shadows enabled. I'll probably put other demos together over time.

There was a bit of demand when I'd brought up porting #GodotEngine games to Portmaster for these cheapo Anbernic devices and such. So here's a hackjob of a guide to show how it works until better guide makers with more time come about to replace it. Easy to share PDF: dinoleaf.com/pro_file_hos...

Paperboy is an on-rails shooter.

Nearly forgot it was #ScreenshotSaturday. A lot of testing went into some shenanigans. Have a test snippet of an overlay for dev streams, reading HDMI out directly from the Anbernic RG35XX-SP. I'll probably use it when I do device tests on stream. Also, death testing. #GameDev #GodotEngine
