Pixel art is hard. 😟

@ombre run into any good rain shaders? Trying to do a good storm for my next scene.

mihe, to godot

I'm excited to share that a long-running project of mine, called Godot Jolt, has had its initial release.

It's an extension for the @godotengine that integrates the Jolt physics engine to power Godot's 3D physics.

https://github.com/godot-jolt/godot-jolt

You can see it in action in this clip, demonstrated using a slightly modified version of the @gdquest RoboBlast demo.

A robot character running around a small level, punching boxes, enemies and collecting coins.

@tshannon @mihe @godotengine @gdquest Ya, I just don't know what those bugs and limitations are yet! I haven't done alot of physics heavy games yet, so it's one of those cases of I don't know what I don't know.

I guess I'll dig into the details at a later date.

Soooo.... here's a fun Fedi thing which is bad.

I've been getting notifications about this conversation since it started and I have no idea why.

Several people are talking about me, but seemingly nobody knows I can see this. I replied to somebody who was outlining why they don't watch my videos anymore (which - fine, but I felt they misunderstood my intention and wanted to clarify) and that caught them off guard.

Tearcell,
@Tearcell@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@TechConnectify huh weird. I for one didn't care or understand the fediverse until I joined kbin and saw the actual power of the federated connections.

Data just being data regardless of source is sort of the dream of the internet isnt it?

Fellow community, we need to make official a new genre of games among gamers communities for games that resemble classic MMORPGs but aren't actually massive.

I hate to say I wanna make MMO and everyone thinks I'm saying I wanna make a new "World of Warcraft" when what I mean is a "micro-Ragnarok" or "bitsy-like Ultima Online" 😭

Tearcell,
@Tearcell@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@cuca like mmo lobby systems sort of like Guild Wars 1?

jonqs, to godot

Spent a lot of time on visuals but I'll go back to gameplay now. I like the overall look for now still some issue (flickering, tiling...) but I'll let that to future me !

Sound design

The team became smaller. Now I will have to deal with sound design. I have an example of two big scenes where many hours, many days were spent on sound design another team member... I have no experience in this, so it will take a long time. A lot of work!

For now, I plan to spend a month on it. But there are a lot of scenes and they are big.

But I planned to write code to handle the console API. This will affect the release date.

Tearcell,
@Tearcell@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@maxim and you can't skimp on sound... To important and cut corners are super obvious. Sucks that happened.

Tearcell, to pixelart
@Tearcell@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

Monster design timelapse! Got a few of these coming as we rush towards release!

Its fun that at this point I have NO idea what this monster is or what its called. Too much focus elsewhere! These are questions for other teammates, I got code to write!

What's it seem like to you?

Yatch, to godot

I hit 500 wishlists on V-Hunter Puzzler Dx! Might not be the biggest milestone, but I'm glad to see some positive traction continue with the game.

Ok, I'm facing once more this specific license: https://github.com/katharostech/bevy_retrograde/blob/master/LICENSE.md

I was wondering if you could circumvent the ruling by declaring you'd follow some other god but it's a bit more precise on the ruling in the later parts of the license.

Also, "obscene", ah right, the blank card to forbid everything they don't like. Would that even have a standing in a lawsuit?

@Ronflaix man and I thought gpl was restrictive!

How do you stay motivated when your development gets tough? 😵‍💫

@LeoSandbox Market your game on the major platforms! That part is so tough, time consuming, draining, and demoralizing you'll beg and do anything to get back to the coding and art!

Who else spent countless hours playing this classic 90s game?

Starfox 1993 Snes

@LeoSandbox A starfox clone is definitely on my bucket list of 'projects I'd love to make someday'.

"Marketing Wisdom" seems to be these sort of games don't do well unless they are Starfox itself, so that just means I can go all in on a passion project.

Pixel art of a fortified residence, a symbol of regal grandeur, reigning supreme on a lofty mound, its stone walls standing as a testament to the passage of time. Below, a charming cluster of dwellings nestles by the water's edge, their reflections dancing on the shimmering surface. Bathed in the warm, radiant light of a season known for its sunshine and long, leisurely days, the image captures the essence of a serene, idyllic day, where the sky is a canvas of blue, and the sun paints the world in vibrant hues.

A standardized platform for playing games on the web could be great or terrible - the greatness would come from standardizing the web gaming experience. Would be great for the 2D projects I have in dev.

This is a similar reason as to why one of our monsters ended up with a rainbow tongue.

Finally finished ... what a great experience. I don't know how its possible to finish it and not be inspired to do something!

I can certainly see why some of our testers saw similarities in our gameplay loop and Personas... but its definitely a pretty superficial similarity.

Still we'll take any comparison to any game that was that satisfying
