Brainstorming game ideas with the kid. I think we landed on a game with a cat that catches mice in a maze🤔 #gamedev #godotengine

After math, reading, writing and a bit of Japanese, today's homeschooling project turned out to be yet another LED circuit. This time my daughter wanted to make a halloween creeper, and she insisted that I recorded the first try (I wanted to make a test first, but no, no)😅 #electronics #makerkids

I wanna Share some cool stuff, after the first playtest it was painfully obvious that the original placeholder terrain had run it course. so i am currently cooking up a new one. with the help of the amazing @makertech.bsky.social's tutorials on youtube. 😍🚂🚃🚃🚃 #IndieGameDev #Godot #RailroadTycoon

I am very lucky to have a child that enjoys making projects like this as much as I do! And I think going to Hannover MakerFaire last weekend inspired her even more🤩 Today we experimented with conductive tape, LEDs and coin cell batteries. #electronics #makerkids #makerfaire #makermovement

It seems that I’m a bit out of practice after taking some time off for the summer☀️ The ~8 minutes video I had planned landed on 17 minutes. Which of course is also the reason why editing ended up taking twice as long as expected😅 #godotengine #tutorial #gamedev

We are closing in on the end of summer. Which means it is time to get back to working more regularly. It is also a perfect occasion to break in the new cup I bought at Hannover Maker Faire this weekend🤩 #godotengine #makerfaire

“Mom, I want to make a game for the tv when I grow up” “Hm, sounds fun. I can’t make a game for the Switch, but if we find a simple idea we can finish, then we can make a game you can play on your iPad?” I guess we just figured out what our next large homeschooling project is going to be?🥳

“What do you do professionally” was a common question at GodotCon. It can be hard to answer without oversharing🤔 Our kids are homeschooled. Homeschooling isn’t common in Denmark and is illegal in several European countries. This is what I made with our 7yo on Monday. Today we are doing statistics📊

I just finished reworking my inventory system, so it's possible to transfer items between inventories. Robots can now pick up items as well! I'm not 100% sure this is the best solution for this game. But I'll keep it like this for now 😎 #madewithgodot #zeldalike #gamedev #indiedev #godotengine

A lot happened in our kitchen garden while we were in Amsterdam. I can't help but get inspired. Especially after GodotCon. Now I'm trying to convince my husband that we should do a Godot + Arduino project to keep track of the garden. A real life farming game of some sort🌱😅 #godotengine #gamedev

GodotCon is over. It was awesome and I even managed to meet new people🥳 I’m exhausted and post-con blues is real! My 7 yo is annoyed at me because I didn’t buy her a Godot Tulip pin and/or a GodotCon tulip t-tshirt (I foolishly only picked up a sticker for her🙄😅). #godotcon #godotengine

I leave for Amsterdam in two days and I just got these two delivered. So if you see either of these at #godotcon, come say hi! I kind of regret not getting both as a hoodie tho. It is such a nice quality and I can definitely see myself using it as a spring/summer jacket🤩 #godotengine

The next Godot voxel video is finally being recorded and edited. I’ve decided to divide the script into two videos. Once these are done, I’m going to work on other projects for a while. Voxels are a bit too complex when I also have a child that currently needs a little extra nurturing.

I had a bug where the robots would stop working and block if I started them quickly after each other. I've been ignoring it for months, but today I managed to find the problem within an hour😅 Now I just need a button for starting them all at once🤩 #madewithgodot #godotengine #zeldalike #programming

Yesterday I finally had more than 30 minutes to myself, and got Binary Greedy Meshing using Integers and bit shifting to work. It seems to be ~33% faster than my regular Greedy Meshing algorithm. I havn't looked into if it could be optimized further or would be faster in C++. #godotengine #voxels

Echo now has a few menus. And now I'm realizing I forgot to add a pause menu with an option to exit to the main menu... Next is exporting and uploading to Itch. And then hopefully I will have time to make the player a bit slower for a while when the wall is hit. #madewithgodot #gamejam #godot

Echo is now playable (-ish). With a random start and random goal. The cave system is connected. And we can create a new random game or replay the same. Next up is creating a main menu and make it possible to create a game from a specific seed. #madewithgodot #godotengine #gamejam

Life and a kid that didn't want to go to school stole 2-3 days of the game jam. I guess this is going to be a very limited scope game😅 Anyways, I just managed to get the algorithm to connect rooms to work. #proceduralgeneration #madewithgodot #godotengine #gamejam #cellularautomata #cavegeneration

We now have access to powerful and complex tools at no cost, it can be overwhelming. Sometimes the best way to spark creativity is to add contrains. Try restricting your color palette, or work with just cubes, or even try a more limited tool. Boundaries can push you!

Sometimes you just need to spend two days working on a bug that just doesn't make sense. In the end you will see that you wrote 'pos' instead of 'n_pos' and thus didn't really count the number of neighbour walls as you thought... Cellular automata is now working for Echos level generation. #godot

MakerTech @makertech.bsky.social · 24/02/2026
Echo dev, day 2. I didn't have much time to work on this today, but I implemented a basic cellular automata cave generation. Or I though I did - each iteration isn't actually changing the initial noise and I'm to tired to figure out why😅 To be continued! #gamejam #madewithgodot #godotengine

MakerTech @makertech.bsky.social · 23/02/2026
Instead of moving on the level generation as planned, I drew two water tiles and looked for shaders, that could help improve the water feel of the game. I'll look at level generation to night (if the kids fall asleep quickly) or tomorrow. #gamejam #madewithgodot #godotengine

Okay, here we go @jackiecodes.bsky.social Jackie Jam #3 - Signal I'm not sure I'll have time to finish this jam, but inspiration struck, and here we are. This is two hours in. The player is a small underwater vessel using sonar (signal) to navigate. #madewithgodot #godotengine #gamejam

It is finally time for a new voxel tutorial & devlog! In this video we are looking into how the RayCast3D node works, how we can use this to find the block the player is looking at, and then make it possible for the player to add and remove blocks at runtime. youtu.be/EfNwclZ4x7g #madewithgodot

I finally sorted out all the things that went wrong in the fragment shader🥳 Now the colors are added correctly from the shader. And I can move on to optimizing the binary meshing using bit tricks🤩 #greedymeshing #godotengine #voxeldev #madeingodot

Binary Mesh and transferring voxel data to the fragment shader using 3D textures to add colors isn't that difficult! Right? Right??? (I might need a bit more than the 30 minutes I had to myself this morning to figure this out😅) #madewithgodot #godotengine #voxelterrain #shaders

What is Greedy Meshing? Why might you want to use this for your voxel terrain? And will implementing the algorithm in C# make it run faster than if we just use GDScript? This, and more, is what my newest video is about. #madewithgodot #voxelterrain
