Finally, my 4 bpp PCX loader for my QBasic project works! 15 seconds to load the image below. Not too bad, but I'll try to optimize a bit. It's a good time to make a backup, by the way. #retrogaming #gamedev #dos #msdos

Since I'll use mode 7 (320x200, 16 colors), because of the nice 8 VRAM pages in VGA, I'm investigating the format of image used by GET/PUT so I can directly POKE to it if I need to. #retrogaming #gamedev #dos #msdos

Looks like I'm really kicking off my QBasic nostalgia project. Installing MS-DOS 6.22 on a Pentium@66 MHz emulated via 86Box running on Lubuntu on my just bought potato laptop.

So command buffer pools in SwiftShader are not pooled at all. The implementation allocates on command buffer creation and on command insertion. Speed is not SwiftShader's main goal, but that's a bit unsettling anyway.

Am I crazy if I'm buying a very compact FreeDOS laptop to relive my childhood memories, but with I what know now, by making a game with QBasic + NASM + DeLuxe Paint II, in the nights, when my kid is already sleeping, and later repack the result for redistribution on modern PCs?

Many were asking for some sort of preprocessing in GDScript (#GodotEngine). I've implemented a simple but powerful approach to that. PR: github.com/godotengine/... Testing welcome.

I posted a few days ago the shader ISA code for the atan2() instruction, the size of which appeared to catch people by surprise. This inspired me to write a blog post to discuss the “hidden” cost of shader instructions a bit more. interplayoflight.wordpress.com/2025/01/19/t...

Godot 4.4 beta 1 is finally here! This release had tons of editor quality of life features as well as performance improvements, we know you are going to love it. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention, we added embedded game debugging inside the editor! #godotengine godotengine.org/article/dev-...

Godot 1.0 got 10 years old last month... but original builds were lost to time 😕 So to restart productively after holidays, I spent a day updating build scripts for 1.0 so that we can make new official builds with modern compilers 😅 Who's in for a #GodotEngine 1.0 jam? 🫠

I got my rat miniature 3D printed now :) ... it failed a bit on one side, I think the scabbard was too thin and dodgy and that might have caused one of the legs to be a bit weird as well, but a lot of it turned out quite well.

Some pretty major #GodotEngine physics related announcements, with Jolt Physics now being built in AND becoming the new default (eventually). As you can see from the video, Jolt is a pretty huge upgrade. gamefromscratch.com/godot-4-4-ge... #gamedev #indiedev

I've just made this PR (a week's worth of work) to overhaul resource duplication in #GodotEngine, making it more reliable, predictable and comprehensive. A myriad of test cases added, too. github.com/godotengine/...

My company @w4games.bsky.social is helping #GodotEngine's global outreach by sponsoring events such as #GodotCon or even a massive booth at #GDC. Our team wrote a nice retrospective on where we've been this year, what we learned from and brought to the community. See you at more events in 2025?

To clear a misconception I often see from people who know about version control but don't want to use it: Git ≠ GitHub ≠ open source You can have a local Git repo and keep your change history only for yourself.

All the tutorials about testing web exports in Godot are like "You need to install Python and create a local server" You don't! It's built into the editor. Once you've set up a web export, click this new icon in the play bar and click Run in Browser. It's a nice time-saver for jams.
