For context: In 4.6, if you allocate memory in a coroutine, then free the object running the coroutine, that allocated memory is never freed! Unfortunately, I was heavily using this paradigm to make cancelable coroutines, which meant my game would've kept creating memory leaks. 😱

Me standing in an endless body of water
Staring at a midnight train, wondering where it may lead.
A disparate reflection in the water shows a different train entirely
As the sun shines behind, with several clouds standing upon the sea.

Bite-sized demo v0.1.3 tracks stats at the end of battle. It was meant to see how the timings and the like felt. The best possible score is 1 hyper hop and 1 super guard to defeat it in a single turn! Here's an example of 1 of each action except the super guard #screenshotsaturday #godot #pixelart

This week I made it so that players can easily see their previous runs in the codex section. I also started working on showing character story bits that'll show when starting and winning a run (see crude temp art). Star Spark on Steam: s.team/a/3639950 #ScreenshotSaturday #GameDev #IndieGame

A screenshot from Star Spark showing previous runs the player has done in the codex. The runs are presented in rows consisting of the face frame for the character they played as, the date, the run time, and whether they lost or won the run.

A previous run where the player had selected Zaelar and lost the run.

A previous run where the player had selected Leo and won the run. Stats here are stupidly high (300+) for debugging.

A screenshot of a crude drawing of Leo punching a training dummy. This is bad temp art on purpose. Below the picture is a text box with some text and a continue arrow.

Text on the bottom of the screen reads: "Leo is training diligently for the Star Spark Tournament."

Had to see how it handled individual part swapping : ) The results aren't that different than just rendering the voxel models - even has the same "clipping" issues. This is pretty sweet for strictly 2D games, without resorting to some render target shenanigans.

I added a proper debugging window to help speed up development. The old one was an ingame menu and only accessible via button presses. Reminiscent of debug menus in retro games but...very inconvenient. Being able to just click things makes it so much easier. 🥰 #gamedev #gamedesign #MayGame

I thought this would work but never actually tried it and not sure what to call it other than pixel depth sorting. It's a way to have equipment reflected on 2D characters that isn't the usual paper doll construction.

Lots of pixelated games provide the option of an HD (non-pixel) font. Many players prefer it. I wanted to see how technically feasible it would be, since everything else is forcibly rendered with strict pixel-precision. Fortunately, it wasn't too bad. ^^ #gamedev #MayGame #Godot #gamedesign

Hey, it's #WishlistWednesday! Battle your way through the Star Spark Tournament and prove you're the best fighter in the universe! Star Spark combines tactical turn-based combat, roguelite deckbuilding, real-time combos, and classic 2D fighter side views. Steam page: s.team/a/3639950 #GameDev

A screenshot of the Leo in a battle with Serj that showcases the new timer bar that appears when using combo attacks.

The bottom of the screen has 3 sections top-to-bottom:
- The word "PUSH"
- Images of the buttons/keys to push for the combo
- The time remaining to input the combo in seconds and a timer bar to the right of it.

Amara on the Volcanic planet, Torrid. She's on a map of connected nodes that the player can move her along. She's beaten one enemy, went through an event, and now has to choose which route to take next.

Star Spark's arcade versus screen.

The top of the screen says "NEXT MATCH"

Leo (a brown man, with spiky black hair, a long white bandana, white gloves, and a long sleeve shirt) is on the left, Grav (a black man in a black and orange crime fighting costume) is on the right. There's a stylized "VS" stamp between them.

The bottom of the screen shows the player's progress through the arcade mode so far.

A screenshot of the post-combat rewards screen. The player can select 1 out of 3 combat actions or skip the reward entirely

In the screen you can see the current character taking turn, their possible actions, the turn order, action detail, and a log with all that happened so far in the combat.
