We're starting up a Godot group in Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota, USA next January. No official links to point to yet. Is that still valid for inclusion?

I like this, especially as someone who played a ton of SNES MarioKart.

Quick update: I started a new job today, so I'm back on the path of financial stability. Very grateful for how quickly that went down. Once I've settled in to the new job, I'll start work on the 1.1 features of Dice Gun Commando.

Dice Gun Commando did very well at #2dcon! 172 total players, and many of them dug the bullet heaven action and dice-building strategy hook the game offers. Thanks as always to the many volunteers who run @2dcon.gg, it's always a blast to showcase here!

Some folks just do not read the tutorials and don't pay attention to the interface to learn what it does. I'm now accepting that these folks are likely not my target audience, or at least they won't experience the core loop as intended.
000
Josh Anthony | Dice Gun Commando @joshanthony1990.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
I surface it as part of the tutorial. From what I saw at 2D Con this weekend, I believe that works to get folks who are in the target audience on board. The rest of the game is intuitive after that.

Josh Anthony | Dice Gun Commando @joshanthony1990.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
My theory is the concept of equipping dice/mods to a gun is unusual enough for a bullet heaven that players don't pick up on it straight away, which then makes gameplay feel confusing because it anticipates the player ramping up a build. So I focused on highlighting that in the tutorialization.

Cool to see Godot getting more press coverage, as a Godot enthusiast since 3.0 in 2019. (Also, fun fact, I was at that same GodotCon with Dice Gun Commando!)

Despite making Dice Gun Commando's UX very intuitive, some players want more explicit instruction for how a game works instead of figuring it out through trial and error. That's what I've been working on, making the game as easy to learn as I can. #wishlistwednesday #indiedev

I cobbled together a couple of shaders to create one that works as a highlight mask. I'm planning to use it to focus user attention during light tutorialization. #gamedev #godot

I think there's still a chance for Dice Gun Commando to do better in the future, but I am not in a financial position to wait for that to happen, so I need to find work ASAP.

Josh Anthony | Dice Gun Commando @joshanthony1990.bsky.social · 05/08/2026
For those who didn't see my post yesterday, I am actively looking for work due to Dice Gun Commando not making enough money to afford full-time development. If anyone is looking for a #godot 2D/UI expert, #javascript FE developer, or #engineering manager, let me know!
