Day 7: Managed to get the keybinds working, hopefully this code helps other avoid losing hours on this like I did codeberg.org/MousePo... piefed.social/post/2... #Devtober #Decennial #gamedev #indiedev #MPUP

Day 6: Figured out an exciting new way the keybinds in my game can break. Need to fix the error in my plugin, too. #Devtober #Decennial #gamedev #indiedev

Day 5, again: Mouse Potato here. It turns out gravity is really tricky to do well, especially when adding a jetpack to the mix. The solution? Turn off gravity. It's just holding you down anyway. The entire game now takes place in outer space. Mouse out. #Devtober #Decennial #gamedev #indiedev

Day 5: when I said I "tried making some concept art" yesterday... this is what I meant. I'd say this is the best I can do, but I need to be honest and say I barely tried and spent most of yesterday playing Genshin Impact. Will try to put more time into the project today.
A black-haired woman main character holding a big sci-fi railgun split into four parts on the business end, with a white orb in between them .

The woman is badly drawn in vector art, and the railgun is a very rough design made in Blender and added through a screenshot, with the floor grid visible on the image.

Day 3: Set up a local git repo today. No remote, just local with a separate backup system. If it's stupid but it works... #Devtober #Decennial #gamedev #indiedev

Day 1: Decided to not implement some stuff that would make the game boring such as a jetpack fuel limit (would take away attention from killing aliens) or laser travel speed (since light travels at the speed of yes). #Devtober #Decennial #gamedev #indiedev

Major thanks to Godot Forum for helping me solve a problem I would have created a hacky workaround and lost hours of work on. I've decided to make a troubleshooting checklist to avoid wasting time in the future: #gamedev #programming #godot #godotengine

I'm going to try to add at least a little bit to my plugin every day. For example, today I am adding a function that checks if all numbers in an array are within a range. ...I should probably try using C# for this one. Will look into it. #gamedev #programming #godot #godotengine

I got bored of reimplementing some features every time I start a new game in #Godot so I started working on this plugin: codeberg.org/MousePotatoD... So far it has some menu elements and not much more. But every journey starts with the first step.
