So the first day of #LOWREZJAM was a wash, had to do a few things irl that took up a lot of time. Today I've been doing a little bit of design and also setting up a build environment for the game. Now can upload to #itchio yay. More soon. #golang #ebitengine #gamedev #gamejam

ActualPanda @actualpanda.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Turns out I quite enjoy #golang been using it in conjunction with #ebitengine to make a ascii roguelike and plan to use it for the upcoming #LOWREZJAM. I've a utility l am making for my use, just some simple stuff for now and I'm also working on an #ecs but that'll take a bit more time to be useful

Been messing around with Godot and trying to create an isometric tiled map so far things look good I can pick out walkable tiles which are the multicoloured squares seen in the image. Gonna be adding more layers after this, hopefully won't be too difficult #godot #isometric #gamedev

Working on a personal site on nekoweb.org and decided to go with an #FF7 style design. Looking forward to working on this a bit more #webdev

A website with a black background with rounded boxes. The boxes having a blue to black gradient background. White text that the top left are "Home", "About" and "Blog" from top to bottom. Repeating text in the main body "Hello World. This is a Test"

Did my first bit of programming in quite a while. It wasn't anything crazy but I think it's a nice way to ease my way back into #gamedev

So finally done some messing around with #UnrealEngine5 quite surprised how easy it was to implement dashing and double jumps, the latter was essentially builtin. I want to get a small scene setup over the next while to set a tone for this project. #UE5 #gamedev #indiedev #cpp

The borders are a little scuffed but making good progress here I think. Finally got some recursive portal rendering working. Took quite a bit of time to figure out and still needs a little work. #indiedev #gamedev #Paradox #opengl #cpp #sdl2

Ok, done things with a "little" more visual flare. honestly feels really cool to see this in action and that I wrote the code to make it happen. #indiedev #gamedev #opengl #cpp #paradox

ActualPanda @actualpanda.bsky.social · 19/09/2025

So I have a maybe new project to work on, codenamed "Paradox". Gonna be one of those games that deals with portals and space manipulation. Writing it in #cpp and #opengl #indiedev #gamedev

So now we got a bit more dynamics in this little game idea. The end idea will be you get X amount of time to attack or defend, a time based mini-game would then be used to determine total damage. Hoping to get a better example up soon but this is tonight's work #love2d #lua #gamedev #indiedev

ActualPanda @actualpanda.bsky.social · 26/08/2025

I'm tempted for a bit of fun to try rewrite my #godot FPS game to #UE5. Not necessarily intending to convert to the engine but I've been wanting to use UE5 for a bit. Plan to use C++ primarily as I quite enjoy the language

Enemy object has just been growing more and more which I find fun to look in on, when it eventually gets some proper geometry and animations I can only imagine how large it will get. I am using #Beehave for the AI which is a great free addon for #godot . #indiedev #gamedev #madewithgodot

Added an "alerted state" to the enemy AI, and I'm quite happy to be back working on this project. I want to have an actual level to run around in at some point. I've been rolling around ideas in my head but we'll see what I decide to go with. #godot #indiedev #gamedev #madewithgodot

So after a small hiatus from programming had a small idea for a game based on the idea of blocking attacks with timed button presses. Made a small visual mock up of the timer, and going to try add some combat on top of that shortly. #gamedev #indiedev #love2d

Nearly filling the current map has no issues, when I have a bigger map I'll do a bigger stress test but was fun seeing things run well. Your request for more pixels has been denied, enjoy the bit crush #godot #godotengine #gamedev #indiedev

Took a little break from the game jam to get AI pathfinding to work and after some frustration I got it to find a decent path towards the player. Godot has made finding these paths pretty damn easy but did not predict my level of buffoonery #gamedev #indiedev #godot #madewithgodot

ActualPanda @actualpanda.bsky.social · 03/06/2025

Went for a new style, still some things I need to change and fix but gameplay comes first so I'll fix the assets if I have time #bevy #gamejam #gamedev #rust #rustlang

A Windows style window with a grey background. In the upp;er left corner is a mostly green set of tiles and a blue robot in it's upper left corner. The window has the title "Chained"

Intro skeet: I'm Panda, I am a solo game dev, mostly use godot lately with a mix of unreal engine 5. I'm learning a lot of new things like art both 3D and 2D, and eventually will learn how to make music. So if you're interested in seeing the learning journey feel free to follow #GameDev

Day 1 of #bevy game jam went decently. I have an idea formulated and a decent CI setup going thanks to the nice templates people provide on github. Game is called Chained and while there isn't a huge amount done yet, that will hopefully change tomorrow. #gamedev #gamejam #rust #rustlang

Using actual assets now, so I'm making some more progress, next up is going to be getting my lovely enemy (capsule) to move around and attack the player. Won't be many updates on this for a little over a week due to the #bevy game jam. #godot #madewithgodot #gamedev #indiedev

Gameplay is approaching just about functional, plenty more that needs to be done but it is decent progress. The enemy gets hit and the healthbar depletes so big win for me. #godot #madewithgodot #gdscript #gamedev #indiedev

So I decided to redo what I was doing in Unity but in Godot 4. Honestly much the same logic just a different engine but I have found the experience a lot more enjoyable.So far Godot feels a lot better imo. Sticking to GDScript while I learn the engine but might branch out later. #Godot #gdscript
