OK, fine. I guess I'll give it a go... Damn it; it does. Ughhhhhhhhhh, it'll be stuck in my head when I watch it in future now. 🙃

A fun little fishing game I fell across from my steam recommendations, with a solid demo. Beautiful #pixelart, very relaxed gameplay. Vibes like an old SNES fishing game. Worth sharing in case folks are interested.

Finally, finally getting back into coding a game. I am doing a quick run-through of the old tutorials as a refresher and discovering exactly why the shit I was trying to do was not working, which on the one hand is grand and useful, but on the other, slightly damming I had to start fresh to see it.

Well, finally reached the point where I am almost ready to pick up my attempt at a platformer again, been cleaning up my file structure and did some concept designing, because as it turns out, it really helps to decide what you want gameplay to be like *before* you program. Who knew?

The waifu, @niseybgn.bsky.social , is recording "Honey, I Joined a Cult" to post on youtube, so as is tradition, I need to make cover art.

Reminder, folks. The shit you post today will still be up tomorrow. So maybe remove your damn fool jokes when today is done so nobody thinks you're serious. For those of you who do not know the tradition, April 1st is April Fools, a day where people try to lie outrageously for funsies.

This just in: Elon Musk just sold X to Xai for $33 Billion. In the process, he reveals that Xai is supposedly worth $80 billion... despite not making any money. And apparently, self-destructing a social media company while also firing most of the staff only drops the value of Twitter by a quarter?

I wish i could tell my younger self, "Hey, you know all those useful #Shadowrun 3e tools and sheets and shit you found online? Download them and back them up, because you're going to be rebuilding all of them in 20+ years because they're all broken links now"

#Shadowrun Decking in 3e is just... my god, why? You have actions, then you have operations... which are actions with a snazzy hat. Security is what the system rolls to do things, except for the half of the things it does that does not roll Security. Spin the Wheel of "Is THIS an Opposed Test?"

I have one rule I follow to determine if I want to investigate a TTRPG map. Do you know what that rule is? Do they have bathrooms. Sounds stupid, but let me explain.

Making a mission for #Shadowrun #TTRPG takes more effort than I had remembered. A lot more effort. Observe: An extremely basic map for a mission.

Down side: Zero game dev still. Up side: NOTHING inspires one to run a game of Shadowrun TTRPG like living in the start of a shitty cyberpunk future.

A non-game-dev series of fun facts: 1. The newer dog likes "floor candy" i.e. random shit such as food they stuffed in the corner a week ago. 2. The newer dog horks in the middle of my dream cycle due to floor candy. 3. I lose all functionality when my dream cycle gets interrupted. ffs.

Right, let me repost the image... made a flamingo image for the waifu ( @niseybgn.bsky.social ) for when she plays Moonstone Island. Made no progress with my game lately, but at least I managed this... Also worth note: Bluesky converts .png to .jpg, hence the lime green...

Still alive, just having it rough. I've been quiet because honestly this entire platform is now, in my mind, mostly about game dev. This is a deliberate choice. So apologies if, like me, you are prone to worry about random internet acquaintances. I am still alive. Just... quiet.

Here is the final photo of the Dragon fly coloring book page project. The first photo was taken inside before sealing it. The second was taken outside after sealing. Page was from the coloring book Island Escapes by Millie Marotta. #art #dragonfly #coloringbookpage #acrylic #mixedmedia

Photo of the finished Dragon fly project. The dragon fly base non colored design was from a coloring book that I transferred onto a piece of canvas and the painted with purples,pinks and yellow. The background is in denim blue shapes and teal.

Same as first photo except this one was taken outside after sealing it.

It's like they're using people who can only think of how much money they'll make if they can get low-tech boomers to embrace VR, and never thought to hire a single graphics designer. ... Or someone who understands how and why humans move and shift while they talk.

Shameless plug while I am at it. Waifu playing Coral Island, reaching the end game and discovering that end game involves a LOT of grinding, it being a farming sim and all.

MrBright01 ಠ_ಠ | Making "Super Flamingo Island" on Godot @mrbright01.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

Right. Pixel art was beyond me. But at least I managed to get work done on the Waifu's BRB screen. Not sure if she wants a background color. I'd almost leave the screen active behind this, myself.

MrBright01 ಠ_ಠ | Making "Super Flamingo Island" on Godot @mrbright01.bsky.social · 09/02/2025

Apologies for the lack of updates. As it turns out, watching the world burn is kinda crushing for someone with executive function issues stemming from depression. Who knew?!? Well, today, I think I am at least going to try and get some art done. I need to try and make an alligator enemy.

Ahh, the return of the "Random porn creator following me, the disabled would-be game dev". Thanks, mate. If it was my thing, I am sure I'd have loved the banana hammock. It is not, so I did not, but I am sure you meant well.

MrBright01 ಠ_ಠ | Making "Super Flamingo Island" on Godot @mrbright01.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

Right. Today's game-dev goal: Try to add knockback to damage. I feel bad, because of how much that will involve "monkey see, monkey do" code, but I remind myself that's kinda the POINT, it's part of the learning process.

MrBright01 ಠ_ಠ | Making "Super Flamingo Island" on Godot @mrbright01.bsky.social · 03/02/2025

Tried, but this is not my genre. Figured I would share to see if anyone else wants to try this free almost-certainly-horror game and leave a review.

Well, the anxiety just won for now and I am going to have to stop. Still, at least I now know a direction to look into.

MrBright01 ಠ_ಠ | Making "Super Flamingo Island" on Godot @mrbright01.bsky.social · 31/01/2025

Hmmm. yesterday I saw a mention about adding collision shapes and properties directly to tiles in Godot. Think today's programming task is to at least investigate that.

MrBright01 ಠ_ಠ | Making "Super Flamingo Island" on Godot @mrbright01.bsky.social · 31/01/2025

Not going to name names, that would be a dick move. That said: Please, folks. Do not start mass cold calls on here. Never mind the social aspect, that's just asking for the bots to come wreck the place that much harder when someone finds success in the tactic.

Trying to at least force one bit of game dev per day. Today, I am trying to do "spikes" again with the new health setter. ... For some reason, it never stops doing damage once the spikes are hit. ffs.

MrBright01 ಠ_ಠ | Making "Super Flamingo Island" on Godot @mrbright01.bsky.social · 29/01/2025

"More content" does not inherently mean "Better". A million planets of procedurally generated fetch quests is worth far less that a single trip to Dunwall.

So, managed to get the flickering to work (I can't believe I spent two hours on this). I think later I will set up the animations on the new version, but need to walk away. Still, it's something.

#Godot nerd time! Below is my code for the player flashing pink when hit. I want to make them flicker, but not as rapidly as it does when I add a alternating visibility on/off to an IF statement in Physics_process

Code for making my characters flash when injured.

Today, I made a i-frame system for when the player takes damage. Temporarily randomizes modularity for now. The video is me spamming the temporary "take damage when you jump" button. Going to try to make the effect more uniform next. #godot #gamedev

Finally felt at least the smallest desire to #gamedev today, so going to start with a little planning on collision layers and masks for #godot Because if i don't plant it out now, I am going to get annoyed mater when I need to plan it out

Made some cattail tiles. The first level of SFI will be a lake/water area, so needed at least this for foliage. Next I need to try to figure out how to handle the friggen water. Kinda wonder if I can animate these to sway a little with #godot. Also, hey, working on #gamedev again finally

So how the hell do my fellow #gamedev dinosaurs keep being productive while the meteor glows ominously in the sky? Because NGL, It's a victory I am out of bed right now, and all I can think on is how bad we're going to fuck the climate change goals of the world.

Today continued to be an art day. So far, I have made a thistle and thorn grass tile set. I can use this to "grass over" normal ground to show the thistles... which are absolutely going to replace spikes as ground damage dealers. The squares on the end are caps, everything else can be repeated.
