😵‍💫 it's **finally** done! I'm introducing some high-level tools that you can leverage with just one line of code. It will automatically correct for the display scale and size things based on your theme size and the native resolution. Spare yourself the pain I went through 😭 #gamedev #indiedev #godot

Remember #BOTW In-Game QA notes tool? Soon you'll be able to use it in your own #godot #godotengine games with #SceneNotes! Here's a little preview of the reporting interface and in-editor viewer! #madewithgodot #screenshotsaturday #indiedev #gamedev

I found that popups in Godot don't work the way I want for my game, so I came up with my own popup management solution. khemitron-industries.net/managing-pop... #godot #gamedev

👩‍🔬 QA lab with an HD, QHD, 3K, and 4K screen I’ve had going the last few weeks while I figure out display scaling in #godot on multi-monitor macOS and Windows setups. happy to announce that I think I’ve got it figured out now — blogs and utils to follow #gamedev #indiedev

🥹 Chickensoft (grassroots #godot + #csharp community) is expanding! @mrkwlsn.bsky.social is our new co-admin, and he drove the redesign, dev and release of the new chickensoft log projects specifically tailored for #gamedev / #indiedev. He meticulously updated everything that had to be done, too!

global game jam 2025! i did a bit of the technical art and some odds and ends, but most of the work was done by my team. amazing art by @sailorloon.bsky.social #gamedev #godot #indiedev #ggj25

🐔Chicken is ready to cluck Had lot of fun making Chickensoft's mascot as a 3D character github.com/chickensoft-... #godotengine #b3d

🥳 I'm back with a small collection of tools for assisting with multi-threaded loading, feature tags, and high-dpi awareness and scaling. This is the boring, really painful-to-implement-correctly kinda stuff that every game needs. #godot #gamedev #indiedev #chickensoft

#apple used to have the best software experience — until they switched to a yearly release cycle. It's been downhill every since.

gosh, this is like the second time I’ve caught a major illness in like 2 months. I must be doing something wrong 😭

Hey, I released a Demo. You can play it on: tarasophiedev.itch.io/helihopter64 #godotengine #indiedev #gamedev #lowpoly #gamedemo #godot #madewithgodot #n64 #screenshotsaturday

After using @passivestar.bsky.social's minimal theme, I went looking for more #godot themes and noticed there wasn’t a centralized list for them, so I decided to make one! Feel free to update the list and star it for future reference. I put down a few to get us started :) github.com/maxfieldev/g...

Hey #GodotEngine devs, any killer #CSharp plugins that are must-haves? I am a big fan of @jolexxa.bsky.social 's work (check out her amazing serialization tools, unit testing, Godot and addon manager, and, gosh - it's all good) - but is there anyone else out there rocking .net? #gamedev #indiedev

You can now create perfect #Godot cookies with @ivanvinn.bsky.social's 3D printable cookie cutter! 🍪 makerworld.com/en/models/96...

hard mode: rendering procedural planets in 2D without using godot's 3D capabilities 😰 i'd like to thank chatgpt once again for helping me with math #godot #indiedev #gamedev

#Godot devs! If you're missing C# web exports as I am, please think about contributing to the bounty! There are a lot of complicated changes that need to happen and this is how we can communicate that it should be a priority. Every bit counts. ❤️❤️ app.opire.dev/issues/01J8Y...

Platform is a native GDExtension for all of the Chickensoft platform-specific extensions. Right now, all it does is give you access to the correct display scale factor for Windows and macOS. If anyone wants to test and/or contribute to X11/Wayland, please reach out! #gamedev #indiedev #godot

forgot to post this the other day, but I only used Linux for a few days before I chickened out and went crawling back to my Mac 🙈 Gnome and Wayland just aren’t ready for fractional scaling with the apps I use, or at least they weren’t in the distro I was using

🥳 thank you to someone for fixing a technical issue with editor reloading and dependencies. making a decent DI system with #godot is tough because of GC's and reference counting, and it's almost impossible to get all the details right without community support 🥹 #gamedev #indiedev

💾 Thank you to the Nice Games Club podcast for having me on to talk about serialization for games! #gamedev #godot #indiedev

🤠 are you doing #gamedev for the @play.date console? i've got my eye on noble engine by @marklacroix.bsky.social — it looks really solid!! #indiedev

🐧 (finally) switching to #linux for #gamedev #indiedev #godot

Game engine == has a visual editor. Otherwise it’s just a framework.
