Meme image "distracted boyfriend". A guy holds hand with his girlfriend but looks toward another woman which his girlfriend does not like. I put the Steam-Logo on top of the head of the girlfriend with the words "steam pile of shame" and my game logo on top of the head of the other women and below the words "finishing my short, cute, rewarding game."

@grumpygamer I'm sorry :( Not only did the Mac-Export failed during the latest exports, but I never got it running with Steam. BUT: I will try to get it running (the export) and then I will upload the full (mac) version to Itch for free. :)

@grumpygamer Thank you so much! Now the pressure is ON! ... need to get this Mac Build going! <3

@grumpygamer Ok, it was an easy fix and I just uploaded a fresh Mac-Version to Itch: https://simonschreibt.itch.io/cozy-space-survivors
I really hope everything works! Please let me know :)

@someguyjg @grumpygamer I just uploaded a Mac-Build to Itch. You can download it for free (it's the full game). You have to disable the Guard-Keeper-Thingie (because my game is not signed by Mr Apple) but it should work then.

@simonschreibt@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@someguyjg @grumpygamer in fact, a dev Friend told me that it should be possible to put Mac stuff on steam (even without xcode) and steam would handle the gatekeeper stuff. I'll look into that!

@grumpygamer @someguyjg Very good to know! Did the Itch-Version work?

@simonschreibt@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@someguyjg @grumpygamer Someone in my community got this "damaged"-warning as well and said "it does not work on an M2". I guess it's a different chip? Maybe games work only on newer Macs?

@simonschreibt@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@grumpygamer @someguyjg good news! i just uploaded the mac build to steam and a friend tested it AND it works. at least for him...i hope for you too!

@grumpygamer So much character in so few pixels, they look great! Can't decide, to whom I would like to talk first...hm....

No matter how simple it is or what I think beforehand, it always takes me a day to implement a quest.

@simonschreibt@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@grumpygamer that looks super cute!
but, yeah...quests are quite complex. and sometimes players finish them very fast :D

As some mobile ads look and sound better than the actual game these days...I guess this could be a compliment?!

Can't get any better review than this, can't I?

Learned this only after 500h+ of Godot: You can (and should) close "tabs" aka other opened scripts from time to time. Helps to keep an overview AND more important: reduces loading times of the project! I was wondering why it took FOREVER when i loaded my project.

BETA TEST for new Player Ship! SPECIAL: Each segment contains a weapon slot, BUT the lower your health, the fewer segments you have (until you gain health again)!!

@voxpelli interesting! And so no xcode and apple devices are needed?

Feels almost as good as a 100% full battery on the cell phone: Refactoring a feature and realizing that most code is not necessary anymore. This is code detox!

Wanna check if the game still runs? Sure: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2657850/Cozy_Space_Survivors/
