My #pico1k #pico8 attempt is becoming a sort of 'make a little garden' game. You need to periodically harvest something to keep playing, but the enemies had to go due to lack of bytes.

Having a great time working on a #pico1k game. I'm trying to make a sort of arcade-y gardening game. It's coming together, but I'm already up in the 900s in terms of bytes used 😬 #pico8

Still trying to get better at Godot in my lunch breaks by making a short game. I had a play with the lighting, world environment adjustments and added some mist particles. I actually quite like how it's looking now (even with placeholder assets).

Learning Godot in my lunch breaks, I was very happy to find the 'Open Dominant Script on Scene Change' setting - as I was getting muddled when switching between scenes and not seeing associated script. I get why it's not the default, but it works for my brain 🙂 #godot

Trying to book a family holiday, and reading reviews where people use “AI” as shorthand for “all inclusive” is very jarring (and took me a shockingly long time to work out what they were talking about 😅) e.g. “ice cream available with AI”.
