Added ship & skin unlocks to my game! Also, the light from the menu happened to give the display model a perfect bit of rim lighting. 👌 #godot #indiegame #shmup #indiedev #gamedev

Had a fun glitch with enemy rotation, I was trying to capture footage of the latest enemy and, well... see for yourself! 😅 The Cruiser has destructable armour plates housing deadly broadside cannons (Not pictured, but I'll show them off in future) #godot #indiegame #shmup #indiedev #gamedev

The Map Screen is functional! Now you can follow your route as you journey to the core. Made using a subviewport at a lower frame rate, with a custom shader for a subtle CRT glow and scanlines. Wishlist on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/3954600/... #gamedev #indiedev #ScreenshotSaturday #shmup

First draft of the Map Screen for Arcade mode. From the start, I always wanted a map transition screen similar to Super Castlevania IV and Lylat Wars. Stay tuned for a gif in the near future! 👨‍🚀 #indiedev #gamedev #godot #shmup #prototrigger

No dev posts from me this week, instead hear my genuine, childlike wonder as I realize dry-humping the trombone in Peak makes different sounds! Also, the more you 'cook' it, the funnier the sounds it makes. Awesome little detail. #Peak #Indiegame
