Idk... it's hard to be optimistic when you see what's going on around the world. But hey... another weekend another chance to work on my little game - let's try to push. #gamedev #godot #motivation

<3 <3 <3 <3 !

Once had a boss who had this great 'gun-fu' game idea. He assumed players could just take down 5 smart, armed enemies like in movies—no slowmo, no turn-based planning. No nothing. "What if the 2nd guy shoots you while you attack the 1st?" "Idk. But I don't want stupid AI like in AC" #gamedev

firsts “since WWII” sure are piling up

Easily a fav thing on my desk rn. Love those headphones #portapro #koss

The idea came from the Brackeys game jam—I wasn't able to compete, but the theme "Nothing can go wrong" sparked an idea: what if we have a story with no happy ending, but by changing just one word, we can make the kid happy? That's the idea. Let's see if I can pull it off. #gamedev #godot #solodev

ok. Stickers on laptops... yay or nay? Serious question.

How your email finds me.

So... I have this idea for a short narrative game... Let's see if I can finish one project with a complete game loop :D. I was away for the last 2 days, so I've prepared some pixel art for it. #pixelart #gameidea #godot #learning #gamedev

Gooooood morning! (It's 3 pm rn ;) ) Some cool morning press: 80.lv/articles/thi... The effects look incredible! #gamedev #coolthingsfoundontheinternet #morningcoffeepress

The nice thing about learning through micro-projects is that each one looks better than the last, and they're easy to finish... (mostly because I'm the one deciding when it's "done" ;) ) #godot #learningtosolodev #gamedev

We live in a fucked up world. #gamedev

OH HOLY SHIT OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH OH MY GOSH

Full disclosure: I've used an addon. BUT GUYYYYS I UNDERSTOOD HOW TO USE IT! <3 <3 #godot #learning #microprojects

#Frostpunk comission of Amanda Emberfall-Blacksmith, one of the more tragic characters who didn't survive the story of the LARP #art #OCsky #commissions #LARP

I have an idea for a future GTA1-like project. It's wayyyy out of my grasp right now, but there's nothing wrong with drafting some pixel art for it, right? Maybe I'll use it in that project... or maybe another. #godot #learning #pixelart

Guess who tried to add a crosshair to their game for 2 hours? Me! Without any tutorial! :D Though I'm a hundred percent sure I'll find out that my method won't work with web shooting... And that there's a method that creates a crosshair in less than 10 minutes. BUT I DID IT. #godot #learning

Soooo, I did buy myself an early bday present ;D Not gamedev-related, I'm afraid. I love telling and writing stories, and I've been looking at some kind of #writerdeck for a while. When I saw a used one for sale in great condition—let's just say I snapped it up in a second! ;) #freewrite

You didn't think you'd get through this holiday without a sh*tty valentines card from the CM, did you? #GodotEngine

Plan for the weekend: Create a rope swing mechanic in a 3d project. Do I have any idea how? Nope. 😁 Wish me luck! #godot #learning #thegrindcontinues

Dawnfolk is really good <3 Kudos to the creator! Check out this little #godot gem <3... (ughhh I need to get back to my work... need... to... turn... off... the... game...) #indiegames #downfolk

Late night book recomendation for anyone trying to learn something new (like... #gamedevelopment as solo dev... or learning how to cook): Ultralearning by Scott Young. #learning #gamedevjourney

Soooooo I was suppose to work on my 2d project right? ;) but to ba fair I've worked on this small 3d experiment (cannot show it as I used assets from my 9to5 >_>), did all I wanted and noooow I can get back to dots project :D #godot #indiedev #learning

Hey @brackeys.com - my man... my hero... you're doing God's work for the #godot community BUT hooooow the hell can my ADHD and I now stick to my 2D, UI-oriented project now... 😜? Comeeee onnnn, now this new 3D project is sooo tempting! 👀👀👀 #gamedev #firstworldproblem

"Releasing"? Riiiiight. That would require "compleating" >_>

More Charlotte! I am obsessed. #OCsky #Frostpunk #art

I've been using this for years, but if you're a young indie dev starting your adventure, check out the Game UI Database. It's one of the best resources for game developers to learn and analyze UI from over 1000 games. #gamedev #indiegames #gamedevelopemnt #resources #ui

Ok. Is there a way to get the local political news out of my feed here? Trust me I already know about the circus going on in our gov. I'm here for #gamedev #godot #gamesnews ....

Step 1: Find an old Dell laptop Step 2: Install Linux on it. Step 3: Do not instal any communicator or social media app Step 4: Now you have a perfect productivity machine. ... Step 5: Linux stopped booting. Hard drive not found. All data lost. ... Step 6: Back on my main rig. #godot #gamedev #life

Question: Does anybody know how #godot works on Windows #ARM? Snap Dragon X Elite. ?????

So my #godot journey has stopped... because of the flu. It's just a short pit-stop, but god, how I hate being sick :/

Interesting! #godot #gamedev #3d
