I have not been sharing any progress for some time not because there hasn't been any progress (it has) but because I decided to first make some substantial progress first.

X did not allow me to upload the original video, complaining about the aspect ratio, lol. Bsky superiority?

The functionality is far from done, but I am at a stage where you can just launch the game and stare at mobs walking around. This is a cursed loop XD #indieGameDev #Slime #PixelArt #IndieGame #Platformer

Now they know slopes. Pretty trivial, but it is important to get it right. #indieGameDev #indieGame #pixelArt

You can't catch me! Behavioural programming of this enemy is mostly done. Need some tweaks, but that's for later. #IndieGameDev #madeWithGodot #indieGame #Slime #PixelArt

Surprisingly, it took some time to program this behaviour correctly, but I am pretty happy with the result. #screenShotSaturday #indieGame #Slime #indieGameDev

I realised I have to remake this solution because I do not like the result - light detection is inconsistent. Now, I need to figure out how to work with Viewports, and that is a pain.

Let's make a #gacha #game with the most repulsive and off-putting characters. Just for fun.

Debug time = fun time. Making visual cones (the current form is temporary) with some raycast magic. #indiedev #gamedev #programming #screenshotsaturday #madewithgodot

Figuring out lights and shadows was always a difficult task for me for some reason. I spent this week trying to make a proper light-detection mechanic for stealth, and I think I finally got it. #IndieGameDev #screenshotsaturday #GodotEngine #pixelart

Experimenting with camera transition within levels. Also, with MP4 instead of GIFs. MP4 looks better, I think. #IndieGameDev #screenshotsaturday #Slime #pixelart

This is my immediate reaction to the #Xbox podcast showcasing #copilot for gaming: news.xbox.com/en-us/2025/0... Disclaimer: I am a scientist; I do research. Currently, I am looking at AI applications and their implications. I am not an AI-skeptic, nor an AI-bro; I am more of a critical optimist.

Indie game development. Expectation: Programming cool new features and mechanics, implementing genius ideas. Reality: Spending at least 1 hour on deciding how to draw a simple jump pad, settling for two simple white lines. #indieDev #gameDev #pixelArt

I spit on my enemies... and push them with my body. Keyboard controls are not so good, but I need to get a USB cable for the gamepad (for some reason, DualSense stopped working in #GodotEngine in wireless mode after a firmware update). #IndieGameDev #pixelart

Probably, the most important mechanic in the current game project. #IndieGameDev #ScreenShortSaturday

I booted up the old Godot (3.5) and loaded the Ailin project, and I must say, for some reason, it is not as bad as in my memory. Set up a discount for the weekend (starting Thursday evening).

I am still here, working on this prototype. Current plan: 1. Make transitions between levels. 2. Add enemies. 3. Think more about the game concept. #ScreenshotSaturday #IndieGameDev #Slime

I am back from a big trip and can now dedicate more time to gamedev. I think I've finally decided on the style of this prototype. #IndieGameDev

Somebody bought my #puzzle game again on #SteamSummerSale We are on a roll! #indieGameDev Get it here: steam.pm/app/2083630

Somehow, this is fun... I don't know why, though, but simple movement feels entertaining. #indieGameDev

Forgotten Dream @4gotndream.bsky.social · 23/03/2024

TBH, sometimes, I think I made a mistake pricing Ailin: Traps and Treasures at $3.99. I probably should have added a story to the game (which was relatively easy) and done more quality control. However, at that point, I just wanted to finally release the game. #IndieGameDev

Forgotten Dream @4gotndream.bsky.social · 23/03/2024

Should I just make a 2D platformer with simple graphics while working on a larger project (which would definitely take years to finish)? #indieGameDev

I spent several hundred USD on #Unity assets, from the time before I started using #Godot. I don't regret spending that money, since it contributed to my decision to use FOSS: once I realised those assets were tied to the engine, I decided they were more or less worthless to me.

This pathfinding is something special... BTW NavigationAgent3D is marked as experiments in #GodotEngine. I guess, I'll have to program navigation myself...

#screenshotsaturday I'm making something new... no announcements yet. #GodotEngine is perfect for fast prototyping.
