In @mikebithell.bsky.social's Vampirium: 1997, you can weaponize that thing where you're trying to leave a social situation but someone keeps talking to you right before you head out the door 😭 I defeated a guy using a broom and awkward social interactions

Why are the clouds irl rendering non-volumetrically, when did we switch to an alpha cutout layer with edge fill

A photograph of the sky, the clouds are in an extremely thin but dense layer

Adjusting some lighting, there's a chimney structure here you can use to refill your air. Hopefully it's fairly obvious there's a hole in the ceiling from the lit area, but may need to adjust the geometry somehow if not... #godotengine #indie #gamedev #saltwaterbodies

A screenshot of Saltwater Bodies. The player is underwater in a cave. There is a light area, with a particularly bright spot on the floor.

earlier I finished The Message From Deep Space and honestly a great game, on par with Outer Wild. would recommend it to anyone who likes media like Contact or Arrival took me about 24 hours over the course of a week, but it's split up into many small levels (like maybe 100?) and also bigger acts

Doing some automation in my lightmap baking, and there *has* to be some simpler way in #godotengine to trigger this...

var bake_lightmaps_button: Button

func get_bake_lightmap_button():
if bake_lightmaps_button:
return bake_lightmaps_button

var ctr = Control.new()
var plugin = EditorPlugin.new()
plugin.add_control_to_container(EditorPlugin.CONTAINER_SPATIAL_EDITOR_MENU, ctr)
var but: Button
for child in ctr.get_parent().get_children():
if child is Button and child.text == "Bake Lightmaps":
but = child
plugin.remove_control_from_container(EditorPlugin.CONTAINER_SPATIAL_EDITOR_MENU, ctr)
ctr.queue_free()
plugin.queue_free()

bake_lightmaps_button = but
return bake_lightmaps_button

func bake():
EditorInterface.edit_node(get_lightmap())
EditorInterface.set_main_screen_editor("3D")
await get_tree().process_frame

if get_bake_lightmap_button():
pre_bake()
bake_lightmaps_button.pressed.emit()

A very productive stream of SWB #gamedev! Added pulleys that can form a sequence, and can be jammed to stop bathysphere movement until the player fixes it. #indiegame #godotengine

Eva Codes 👩‍💻 @eva.codes · 02/06/2026

Got some very simple "rope rendering" working... just scaling and rotating a cylinder mesh😅 Might make this fancier in the future with a skeleton or even custom shader with per-instance slack etc, but for now I think it'll be good enough! Tomorrow will look at adding pulleys, for the bathysphere..

A screenshot of Saltwater Bodies, it shows an elevator with two ropes leading upwards off of it. It kinda looks like a window-washer's elevator platform?

Not much to show visibly from today's #gamedev stream, mostly under the hood stuff, but here's the debug display for the stats:

Technically #screenshotsaturday here now so a peek at what I was working on during this evening's #gamedev stream: The diver propulsion vehicle, aka "scooter", will be how players get around larger areas quickly. I'll probably also use it to store equipment or as air restoration point.

A blue cylindrical vehicle with fins on either side. It has rust and some green discoloration. At the front a large inlet is visible

Some progress on my entry for the #LynchianIdeasGameJam . Have some of the UI working and have started on the environment renders (it will all be prerendered, at least the plan for now). #godotengine

A screenshot of Portents of the Dreamer, a work-in-progress game for the david lynch game jame.

The game is a 4:3 aspect ratio window, with a pre-rendered backround showing some mountains and an ocean. There is a very WIP dock, train station and mine. Each of these has a small number next to them.
To the left is some UI with four boxes, with one containing a square covered in pink and black squares (placeholder texture).

In the top left is a small box showing two entries of text:
Top entry:
"Dropped A fish onto Old Mine. (Reminder)"
Bottom entry:
"Jan 1, 08:15:
Dropped A horse (?) onto Dock. I heard about a similar case in Fance."

Played through a bit of Arcus as I realised I hadn't yet, and got an unexpected hit of FF8 nostalgia from the ballroom scene :o

An image of Arcus on the left and Final Fantasy 8 on the right. The character in both are dressed in formal attire and looking bored leaning against a wall.

Adding more body parts to the player, currently pelvis + upper legs. Even with just this much it changes how you approach tunnels as you can bend easier in some directions than others, which will become more apparent once I add knees! #gamedev #indiegame #godotengine #screenshotsaturday

Adding a small "proprioception"/proximity view you can enable, to allow player to tell exact state of their body and explore darker areas. It uses dithered transparency so wouldn't be surprised if bsky compression makes it look weird... #gamedev #indiegame #godotengine #screenshotsaturday

Working on stamina/oxygen usage systems You can press "R" to retract chest, this increases oxygen usage but lets you fit through a smaller space When you let go, the chest is still bound by physics and that's what actually drives the stats, not the input directly #gamedev #indiegame #godotengine

When your character is slightly off a ledge and the inverse kitty-matics kicks in

A photo of Roxy (a grey and white mainecoon cat) on some stairs. Her back legs are folded up as when she is sitting in a loafing position, but her front legs are extended as if standing, because her front paws are on the step below her back paws.

The pun is around the term "inverse kinematics", which is used to place characters' feet on the ground in videogames
