love how I can't compile a very simple CLI utility that I need on my laptop because it's written in rust and 4GB RAM is apparently not enough for such a simple task lol. it's got 400+ dependencies too. rust is such a mess

experimenting with the Defold game engine and wow, I'm blown away by the fantastic documentation. THIS is how an engine should be documented!

man, GDSCript's slowness is starting to get on my nerves, it can't optimize away simple stuff even in Release mode. I think for my next game I'll either try to get a good lua binding working or ditch godot altogether. The engine is fine but there are way too many limitations with scripting

sorry for the lack of updates on social media lately, just been busy with the more "boring" stuff behind the scenes, like tweaking the pathfinding and setting up the last few systems. I'll post as soon as I have more interesting stuff to share 🙂

Still WIP, but here's what the basic rewards for expeditions in Campaign mode will look like. They're like the equivalent of quests/missions. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #godot

Added items to my medieval RTS! 🙂 Also, Steam's RTS fest starts tomorrow. I joined as an unreleased game, but without a demo as there are still a few major features left to implement. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #godot

Ok the only issue I had with upgrading to Godot 4.x was terrain (autotiles in 3.x) being a bit too slow to update at runtime. But @portponky.bsky.social's BetterTerrain plugin made it considerably faster and I can later switch to the GDExtension version to make it even faster 🥳

Almost done porting my game from godot 3.x to 4.x :) Can confirm they're VERY different. Pretty much everything got changed. The new APIs are much cleaner!

POV: migrating a game from godot 3.x to godot 4.x 🐴 haha the number is deceiving though, this probably won't take that long :)

In the past month alone, over 12M people joined Bluesky, with daily active users growing 10x. We received more reports in two days than in all of last year, and have integrated new systems and quadrupled our moderation team to try and keep up. Sometimes, we have to work quickly to correct errors.
