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

Isn't it! We just can't stop adding LEDs to anything at the moment😅

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

Lol bad autocorrect or I just pushed all the wrong buttons. I'm pretty sure I just meant that I released it on GitHub with a license specifically so people can used it how they like :)

The shoutout is appreciated 🤩 And the cidenisnon GitHub specifically so it can have a clear license that says you can use it for any project :)

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

Maker Faires are awesome! And there are usually a lot of activities for the kids (some free, some paid). We went home with so so much inspiration for new projects🤩

MakerTech @makertech.bsky.social · 21/08/2026
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

But, but, but… The editing just takes sooo long😅 Luckily my husband has his last vacation week this week or I wouldn’t have been able to finish the video😱

MakerTech @makertech.bsky.social · 20/08/2026
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

The weather is too good to stay inside, so here is my office for the day☀️☀️☀️ When I need a break or a snack I can go pick peas and strawberries while I listen to the birds singing from the forest🤩

It’s wonderful! And game dev would also suit her quite well since she loves math, problem solving and building things🤩

“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 think I took half the stalkes a few days before we went to Amsterdam. Now it's maybe six times as big as I left it (if not more)😅 Meanwhile our other rhubarb hardly has any stalks yet (it is a later variant tho, so it makes sense).

MakerTech @makertech.bsky.social · 27/04/2026
One week! We went away for one week. And the rhubarb just completely exploded in growth. I guess it’s time to make some home made sour sweets! And maybe a cake or two…

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

First day of #godotcon is over. It has been a day filled with amazing talks, nice people and cool games to try out. And merch of course. I might also have ordered the new Godette plushie😅: www.makeship.com/products/god...

The much anticipated Godette plush is finally here. Godette is a mascot designed by Andrea Calabró, the original designer of the old and new Godot Engine logo. Want more Godot Engine content?

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.

MakerTech @makertech.bsky.social · 22/03/2026
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

My Godot Voxel Terrain Project is now open source on GitHub: github.com/MakerTechDK/... Whenever I release a new video for this, the code will be exclusive for Patreons the first month, and then pushed to the public GitHub afterwards. #madewithgodot #godotengine #opensource #voxelterrain

Thanks. I will definitely keep working on it🙂 At the moment it's just easier to find time for projects, where I can get a few things done even if I only have 30 minutes here and there.

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

Sounds like a good first step. We have a one week summer camp for the family each year with tons of activities made by all the parents. And it’s our youngest favorite week of the year.

How old is she? Ours are the same. People that don't have kids like this can have a hard time understanding what it's like. In Denmark we have a group/club 'Gifted Children'. It is mainly for the kids to meet like minded kids. But it is also very much for the parents to meet parents that get it.

Don't mind me, I'm just over here destroying my voxel project😅 Also known as in the process of figuring out how to create a binary mesh using bit tricks🥳 #madewithgodot #godotengine #voxelterrain #greedymeshing

I'll be at GodotCon in Amsterdam and I'm bringing goodiebags! Inside is a keychain, sticker, button, an exclusive set of game assets and some candy (I'll be buying later, of course). I'll be handing them out for free 🎁

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

MakerTech @makertech.bsky.social · 01/03/2026
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!

I think I‘m going to make my own multiplayer jam week later and try to see if I can get it to work.

I wa so confused since the code is almost identical to something I’ve made before. I double checked again and again and then… wait a minute!!!

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

We play a lot of Mario Party with the kids. I think that is where the idea sort of comes from. I can totally see them rushing through the levels trying to beat each other (and their parent) to the goal. I'm contemplating if it would also be possible to do split screen as well as local multiplayer🤔
