It's fun throwing together tools that only you'll get to appreciate.

Godot's subsurface scattering kinda sucks because of how visible the effect layers are, but that's nothing some dithering can't fix. Even better when you have a visually noisy game in the first place so a little extra noise won't hurt.

Getting closer to the inevitability of having to start chipping away at NPC systems

Quantity slider for item stacks. The architecture behind this probably sucks ass, but if it works right? #indiedev #gamedev #godot

I'll have to reimplement the OptionButton just so I can control the Z layer of the PopupMenu.

Any software cursor and archaic input method fans? We still implement mouse joystick, right? I should think about adding trackball movement... #indiedev #gamedev #godot

I suppose I could still attempt to fake it in dungeons, and then do something different for the overworld.

and SDFGI runs like ass. I'd fake it with cleverly placed omnilights and spotlights, but I also can't guarantee exactly where lights will be in the dungeon maps as I intend for those to be randomised...

Spent the day working on tooling. GI and reflection nodes can be set up in Trenchbroom, though whether I'll end up using them much remains to be seen. Godot's GI situation really leaves much to be desired if you're unable to use LightmapGI. VoxelGI leaks light no matter what I do with my geometry

Ladders. Gotta hook up the sfx signals but they're working good and are easy to set up in the map editor #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Wall climbing, with functioning traversal around both inside corners and outside corners. Complicated climbing routes probably won't come up too often, but this is now way more functional than my original iteration of it and I'm gonna wanna put it to use. #gamedev
