Kylamon1,

I’m in pretty much the same boat. My past 2 laptops have been dell inspirons with a touchscreen. I use the touch screen for game programming to make sure touch events work. The one I got was $500, but probably should have gone a bit higher.

It has a i5 processor 16gb ram, 1 tb ssd. It does indeed run tf2, guild wars 2, and other not graphically intensive games. I’m satisfied and it does work well, but below are some of the negatives of my new laptop vs my old.

It’s missing key backlights, a fingerprint to unlock, and the bodyvis much more plastic and feels not as secure as my wife’s lenovo.

Be sure to check out pics for keyboard arrangement. My new laptop has a numberpad…which is nice, but the arrow keys got shrunk which is not nice for programming.

Be sure to check where the trackpad is. Centralized is better. My new one is more to the left and my wrist hits it when playing tf2 and I do occasionally get some movement from my wrist in game, but not much.

I picked money up from amazon.

Kylamon1,

The top contenders I have experience with is: -Aesprite. It’s paid. It’s good. Built solely for pixel art.

Free stuff: -LibreSprite- this is the open version of aesprite before it went paid. I don’t know it It’s still maintained or updated, but it may suit your needs.

-pixelorama- web based made in the godot engine.

Kylamon1,

If your looking for a cheap puzzle game, I had fun with Unforgettable Voyage on steam.

Kylamon1,

Unforgettable voyage. Looks like a cute little puzzle game.

Kylamon1,

That’s very awesome of you kind sir/ma’am. I would be interested in #5 spiderman.

Kylamon1,

If true I may actually switch from 3.5 to 4.3. Thanks for the info good sir.

Kylamon1,

I also highly recommend the trine series.

Kylamon1,

I watched the whole thing. I think most anchors talked a bit too slow which seemed fake. Those hand gestures were weird especially for (I don’t know his name) the black anchor. Very rigid fingers.

The main cringe section was the movie section where they tried to have the black anchor act sassy but that’s hard with a very level speaking tone and speed.

Honestly, I’d watch something like that once a week.it was nice to get a broad cross section of news.

Recommend a game for me to play with my partner

My partner and I occasionally play games together, but they pretty much only play word puzzle games on their own. I’m not very good at word games though, and they don’t have very good spatial skills, so we frequently find ourselves mismatched. We have a switch and a single decent gaming pc, and a pretty old laptop....

Kylamon1,

I play a lot of games with my 10yr old daughter. Here are some of what we liked:

-Any lego game(there are sooo many and they often go on sale)

-trine series, much more puzzley

-sackboy a big adventure

-brothers a tale of two sons

-it takes two

-portal 2

-degrees of separation

-putty pals

-ibb and obb

-toodee and topdee

-bleep bloop

-battle block theater

-chariot

-pikunuku

We also loved going through the monkey island games. They are not mumtiplayer but they are slow point and click games that we bounced ideas off one another.

Kylamon1,

Yes and no. I finished the show and the last episode or so has more action, but it’s a pretty slow burn the whole season.

As a teacher we call them “middle school students”

Godot UI Tutorial (www.youtube.com)

Hi everybody! I’m back with another video for the collection of tutorials on game development in Godot Engine. This time, we won’t be dealing with shaders or 3D models. Instead, I would like to focus on a possibly simpler but definitely no less important area in game development with the Godot Engine, and that is the user...

Kylamon1,

I’ve tried username a few places but can’t get a good result.

Kylamon1,

It really feels like the developers are shooting themselves in the foot because they are missing a lot of exposure in game jams.

C# cant export to web, gdscript can but only on certain sites that have specific settings.

3.5 you could export everything to everything…

Kylamon1,

This sounds like the kids pizza lunchable…and that’s not a bad thing. I don’t think I’d eat it regularly but I’d definately order one.

Kylamon1,

My (8-10 year old) daughter and I have played through and throughly enjoyed the first 4 in co-op mode.

Kylamon1,

Reducing the size to 1 I don’t think is the “correct” solution.

In the inspector for the containers look for the “mouse” tab. That determines how the mouse interacts with that control. By default it is on STOP. Meaning it blocks all inputs “behind” it in your scene. You probably should change it to pass or ignore.

Imaging you have a complex ui with multiple layers of buttons. You only want the top one to register click events, so it would be on STOP. If you did IGNORE then the top button would not register click events, bit the buttons under it would. If you had on PASS the top button registers the click, but then passes on the click event to the buttons under it.

Right now you still have a 1px dead zone.

Hope that helps.

Kylamon1,

Ah, I use godot 3.5, there the default is stop. Sounds like the options changed so your guess is as good as mine.

Kylamon1,

I’m a math teacher. I use my video game making knowledge from Godot to make little video games to review skills. Each takes a few weeks to make with game design, making all the art, programming, and making the worksheet.

Here is my Disco Dj-Demo if you were curious what I mean.

I think it’s fun, it’s not something I can really chat with others about.

Kylamon1,

I am also learning Japanese. I fine it hard to think of the sentence structure as different than English. In my mind I find myself daying the sentences the way Yoda from star wars does and it makes more sense.

Yoda I am–>Yoda desu

Kylamon1,

I have a released game in 3.5. It is not realistic for me to update it to 4.0.

I have to keep that code in 3.5, but if I want to start a new project in 4 I need to keep both versions on my pc. This is why the tool would be helpful. So I can easily switch between the 2 versions.

Kylamon1,

My daughter and I have played through quite a few games. Here are our favorites:

  • ANY LEGO game, we have played through many of these
  • The TRINE series. They are fun puzzle platforms
  • portal 2 co-op. There is a campaign and other maps on the workshop
  • brothers: a tale of two sons. Sit right next to each other and share the controller
  • Unraveled 2, puzzle platform errors
  • It takes two is an amazing game from EA.
  • sackboy: a big adventure
  • battle block theater is a fun romp
  • bleep bloop
  • degrees of separation, mostly fun there was a few annoying puzzles, but many can be skipped
  • guacamole is a nice battle platformer
  • ibb and obb is a very unique puzzle platformer
  • octodad is pretty great fun
  • pixel junk monsters is a tower defense style co op game
  • putty pals is a fun if childish looking game
  • spelunky is a rogue like
  • toodee and topdee is a fun puzzler

Those are our favorites!
