I'm still trying to figure out how to get that dopamine from cleaning my own damn house. Science has clearly focused on the wrong things

Anyone having issues not seeing any button prompts in the Gobutiko demo? Lemme know what your controller or keyboard setup is. I'm trying to hunt down a particularly weird bug. #gamedev

Last one for tonight! So far I've learned that I shouldn't be writing code at 3am as most of what I fixed this weekend was stuff I broke at 3am 😌

Yeah, it's a bad habit. I do a lot of work in short interrupted sessions and I tend to forget what I just did. I gotta organize better

Fuck, now I have to track my work for the demo patch notes. My version control notes have been mostly gibberish or angry letters to future me 😔

Thanks! I hope people have fun with it. I'm gonna get some good rest this weekend

I did not, in fact, get this in time for the demo launch 😅 I'll patch it in later after a long ass nap

Hehe I'm a huge fan of the paper hat too! It was a minor outfit decision that ended up being iconic to the game

Yeah, that I fully expect to see! Folks will feel cheated if they're only focused the dice value. Once you've got a feel for how composure and pip bonuses work that feeling tends to swing towards feeling too easy. Hopefully there will be enough feedback on both ends for me to balance it better

000

NCrafters @gobutiko.com · 24/09/2026

Honestly, I'm sure the first patch will be crash related! I feel like I built a house of cards in some of the decoration systems. I'd be thrilled to find feedback on dice mechanics (good or bad)! Not exactly sure how to answer that question though. It's kind of "I don't know what I don't know"

Dear @partner.steamgames.com, Please make either a mobile friendly page or an app for managing our games. Needing to go to my desktop every time I need to make a post or update a thing for the store page is a lot of friction 😭

000

NCrafters @gobutiko.com · 24/09/2026

~24hrs left before we're live! Time to drown myself in coffee and stay up all night rolling dice (roll a 1 to add a new bug 🫠). Tell your friends' pets to share and wishlist the game. They are better at marketing I'm sure! #indiegame #godot #gamedev

Just another reason you need to see how other people use your systems. I ignored this one for so long because I just developed the muscle memory to know how to aim my goobers face at whatever I needed.

000

NCrafters @gobutiko.com · 23/09/2026

This one came up a lot while watching play testers. I noticed most were constantly shuffling around try to point the goober at what they wanted to interact with. Which is fine, but because objects sometimes were clumped together they just ended up frustrated when they didn't get what they wanted.

100

NCrafters @gobutiko.com · 23/09/2026

Very recent change to something pretty basic. Now you can see all interactables within reach and freely swap your targeting between them. Also changed this range to be circular instead of just what was directly in front of you!

NCrafters @gobutiko.com · 22/09/2026

Steam should definitely add an extra 1000 hrs to that play time to cover debugging in the shower and me dragging my face across the keyboard 😌

050

NCrafters @gobutiko.com · 22/09/2026

The sheer volume of ideas, solutions, and stupid features that occur in the shower make a very compelling case for a water proof notebook.

010

NCrafters @gobutiko.com · 22/09/2026

So last year during play tests someone asked for an undo button for assigning dice. I coded it, played around with it then shelved it because it was too easy to just cheese the dice rolls. Over a year later while showering I realized how I can make it work. Let's see if I can get it working in time
