I did implement the stuff I wanted to implement on Monday, but that was far from everything. Today, it's *time* to add a time limit to the stores. More gameplay! Starting in a half-hour or so. gtlk.link/q8hevWNl #godot #godotengine #gamedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #gameboy #gamejam

I'm going to play one last GBJAM-14 game (I already rated it), and then it's back to work on Nostalgia Gold! I have some ideas I really want to try to implement. :D gtlk.link/q8hevWNl #godot #gameboy #indiegame #gamejam #gamedev #indiegamedev

Today is the last day for voting on GBJAM-14 games, so even though I have no specific requests, I'm going to just play random games. You can still request yours before the stream ends! gtlk.link/q8hevWNl #GBJAM14 #gamejam #gameboy #streaming #indiegame

There was no Vs. CPU mode that I could remember, just a training mode against stationary targets that didn't shoot back. (It also didn't have a turret-using character, which is my usual go-to in these kind of team shooters - Engineer, Barik, Torbjörn, etc - so I was struggling anyway)

Oh, crap, lost track of time. I am streaming today! More work on the GBJAM-14-turned-CYG-14 game. gtlk.link/q8hevWNl #godot #gamedev #indiegame #gameboy #gamejam

This was why I didn't like Concord. In my first-ever match, I was thrown into a team of Level 30+ players with a character I only knew the basics about, and was constantly yelled at over chat and speech about how much I sucked. Even if the game hadn't shut down, I wouldn't have gone back.

Okay, not making the same mistake I made on Monday. I'm live now! I have two more games to rate and review, then I'll talk about the next Game Jam I joined (it starts in ten hours!), and then I'll work on my games some more! gtlk.link/CjT3CACF #gameboy #gamejam #godot #streaming #gamedev

Well, the Gameboy Jam was a big mess, just like my sinuses this past weekend. 😷 Still, I'm back, and I'l be streaming in about an hour! (3 PM CEST) Listen to me rant about it then! Twitch stream: gtlk.link/q8hevWNl #streaming #gamedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #godot #godotengine #gdscript

It's been a bad week for streaming and game dev here at the ol' Pixel household. I have every symptom listed in the NyQuil commercial and no NyQuil, which has also wrecked my voice. Hopefully I'll be okay on Monday. #Gamedev #indiegamedev #streaming #no_streaming #not_today #not_tomorrow_either

Back to the GBJAM! I didn't get as much done over the weekend as I wanted, but I did do some preliminary artwork. Today I'll try to build the city (on Rock 'N Roll). Join me! gtlk.link/rnwa4YEN #godot #godotengine #gamejam #indiegame #gameboy

It's Wednesday, time for another stream! I have no idea what I'm doing on the stream today. GameJam doesn't start until Friday, and I don't want to get too involved in anything else because of that... So maybe I'll just babble for a while. twitch.tv/greatunclepi... #gamedev #indiegamedev #godot

It took me a while to get used to it, but, out of all the development platforms I've used, Godot is my favorite by far.

It's Saturday, and Blood of Dawnwalker just released, and I got my grubby hands on a copy, so I'm gonna give it a try! As a bonus, Twitch is giving badges to people who watch and subscribe to Dawnwalker streams! twitch.tv/greatunclepi... #BloodofDawnwalker #dawnwalker

Whew, Friday. Wound up falling asleep in my chair while setting up the stream, and then OBS crashed, and it's damn warm in here. Going to be an, um, interesting stream. Bonus: it's already started! (Sort of) #indiegame #gamedev #jimothy #jimothytheraccoon #godot #godotengine

Great Uncle Pixel @greatunclepixel.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
Streaming today - well, the stream started already, technically. :D The catch is I'm not sure what I'm doing. Probably more Jimothy. Possibly more Chess. Maybe I'll just code for a bit and then go play video games. Who knows? Not me! #jimothytheraccoon #indiegame #gamedev #streamer #chess #maybe

Might work on Jimothy more today, but first, I'm streaming Breath of Fire IV! This will probably be the last BoF4 stream, since I'm at the final dungeon. Join me in about fifteen minutes! twitch.tv/greatunclepi... #breathoffire #breathoffireiv #breathoffire4 #letsplay #streaming

They pushed back the end of the Jimothy Jamothy to Sunday morning, so I'm adding a few more little features to the game. Join me while I see how much I can get done with the extra time I have. twitch.tv/greatunclepi... #gamejam #godotengine #indiegame #gamedev #indiegamedev #jimothytheraccoon

The stream's probably going to start a little late today. I have some errands to run, and the stores don't re-open until a half-hour before the show normally begins. But I think I *finally* figured out the issue I was having, though it'll require some restructuring to fix. So see you soon!

Chess is on hold, because I joined a game jam! I only have nine days to make a game, and I'm not entirely sure what I'm making yet! So watch me struggle with basic ideas. :D #indiegame #gamedev #gamejam #jimothy #jimothytheraccoon #indiegamedev #notchess

I missed Wednesday, but things should get less hectic. I'm working on a boss fight :D Mechanics are done, I just have to actually *add* the mode to the game. Join me and watch, and listen to me babble! (Still no server for online stuff yet) #gamedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #chess #streaming

I think that's a really neat effect, but it gives the impression that you're shrinking rather than climbing a tower.

I haven't been home, so there was no show on Wednesday, but to make up for it I'm going to have *two* shows today. First, a coding stream at my normal time (in about a half hour); second, a gaming stream in about twelve hours. (More on that as it gets closer) #indiegame #gamedev #godot
