the only survival strategy in the near to mid term for creatives imo is to make weird new stuff that an LLM could never come up with bc it’s hopelessly mired in nostalgia and what has come before — we have to lean into being weird human freaks rather than producing “content”

Thanks for letting me know. You’re right - I’m not super familiar with that IT area. Best of luck finding someone!

Coded some improvements to the third person camera to make it more usable. Man rotations are hard. #indiegamedev #godot #helo

Made a "stinger" missile enemy to create a threat to the player in our helicopter game prototype. I had fun reading about how real stinger launchers work for inspiration on how to program the missile's guidance, which uses proportional navigation 🤓 #godot #helicopter #indiegamedev

We're taking the approach of making a fun prototype first before rabbit holing into oblivion. Since the flight was in a good enough spot, I did some work on the gunner's experience. Any ideas for what/who the enemies are? Robots? Terrorists? Robot terrorists? 🤔 #godot #indiedev #helicopter

Started a new game prototype last week with my friend @frenchjoe.bsky.social and I'm really enjoying the process so far. It's loosely inspired by games with co-op flying gameplay like battlefield BC2/3/4/6, planetside 2, even dust 514. All assets are placeholder :) #helo3d #godot #prototype

that’s a killer cs moment - playing mm with the dude who made the map you’re playing. I‘ll always remember playing one of FMPONE’s maps in mm with the man himself.

Yesterday I glued together this diegetic main menu interface for my game. It's kinda gimmicky but I really like it. #godotengine #indiegamedev #zombies

how much do you show in a pitch deck when your game is still pre-alpha? trying to figure out the balance between "here's the vision" and "here's what exists." if you've successfully pitched at this stage, I'd love to pick your brain. #indiegames #gamedev #godot
