42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 04/02/2026Hey YO WHAT'S UP? Long time without posting, I got into a working loop, lost my job and passion a couple of time. But... I'M BACK BABY! I'm developing TOTM style game in #godot, don't mind the UI, I have some placeholder because I'm updating it. I added an FX today! #godotengine #gamedev #mobilegame 081
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 09/08/2025These tip are very helpful! I know python, gdscript and c# - intermediate But when it comes to c++..... totally fear ahahah 020
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 08/08/2025I should practice.morw c++ tho, I get panicked when I open and everything is there, like 300+ Lines of code 000
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 08/08/2025I just need to get better in c++ I guess, I know things but when everything is together I start to panic 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 07/08/2025I tried to look at the source but unfortunately it gets very confusing for me, but I would love to learn more about it :( 200
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 06/08/2025Are you reeeeadyyy??? Another level for my game, is missing some sprites, the invisible tiles supposed to be something that shoots, but not fully implemented yet Development is going well! #godotengine #madewithgodot #indiegamedev #mobilegame #google #android #iOs #puzzlegame #arcade #tilemap 073
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 05/08/2025HELP! I need a #pirxelartist that wants to help me to create a tilemap for my game! #TimeFracture! Obviously paid, but please, not crazy expensive! you can find the game in my page! I'll probably need more in the future. Check the style first please! #pixelart #GodotEngine #indiegamedev #tilemap 141
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 27/07/2025I spent so much time for this stupid mechanic, the player didn't keep the rotation, it was so simple and yet my brain couldn't wrap it around. I had to use the global rotation. #godot #godotengine #madewithgodot #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #mobilegamedev #googleplay #androidgames #godotitalia 1235
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 06/07/2025Interesting, I once did it with area2D, when the player was going out the whole mechanic was triggering 010
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 06/07/2025Unbelievable buy my game, time fracture, has for the first time the saving in the cloud! I deleted the local savings system because Google handles everything! #godot #godotengine #madewithgodot #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiegame #mobilegamedev #googleplay #androidgames 0175
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 06/07/2025func _get_configuration_warnings() -> PackedStringArray: var warnings := PackedStringArray() if !is_instance_valid(texture) || texture == null: warnings.append("Missing sprite as sprite node") update_configuration_warnings() return warnings #madewithgodot #indiegamedev #gamedev #godot 083
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 06/07/2025let's say we want that our game designer need to specify the texture @export var texture: CompressedTexture2D: set(value): texture = value if sprite: sprite.texture = texture update_configuration_warnings() here we can create our configuration warnings method (it's virtual) 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 06/07/2025it's been a long time since the last post, I've been busy with my personal life but here is a hint... Do you know the warning icon in your node tree in #Godot? Well, you can create your own warning! Use your script as a tool, @export your variable and use the setter method! #godotengine #indiegame 121
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 29/06/2025I was probably drunk when I wrote this comment #godot #madewithgodot #indiegamedev #gamedev #gamedevlog 0123
Reposted by 42 Games Labpassivestar @passivestar.bsky.social · 08/05/2025Godot will soon have specular occlusion from AO and lightmaps which will allow for much better looking reflections in interiors 650250
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 04/05/2025I don't have anything with anyone, but who gives you permission to come on my page and start to annoy me without any reason? I don't care if you're straight, gay, trans or whatever. Just don't bother, I left twitter for this reason and now I get attacked because I ask Gemini some logic for my game 000
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Good to know, now go to play dragon age and stop bothering people 000
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 03/05/2025You came here to bother me, I don't mind if people play it. Everyone's free 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 30/04/2025The process of making a game is to make fun, if people find it enjoyable by putting LGBTQ stuff inside, I don't understand why I can ask the AI to help me to crack some logic that I'm not aware of. Your comment is very stupid Copilot is autocompletation btw 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 30/04/2025Good, didn't expect it for people to play anyway. I'm not an expert and sometimes I get confused with logic, asking some hint is different than making a whole game with AI. I'm an artist myself, I worked in so many movies and I refuse ai, asking to explain something is like doing a Google search 000
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 24/04/2025No, you can use as many moves as you want, but you can die on some levels. Also you need to collect all the capsules. There's also a speedrun mode, I'm planning to add a leaderboard for the fastest levels I'm also making an arcade mode, with infinite level and more chances to die + time and score 010
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 23/04/2025Yes it is! I really love TOTM and I spent so much time on it that I wanted to take inspiration and make my own one! :) 010
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 23/04/2025Hellooooooo!! This is the development of my game TimeFracture! a #puzzle #puzzlegame #madewithgodot This is one of the first levels, as you can see I'm missing some sprite and the UI is a bit meh, but ehy! I'm going good! #godot #godotengine #indiegamedev #mobilegame #TOTM #tombofthemask 2242
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 22/04/2025Now it's up to you how you will use this powerful tool! #godot #madewithgodot #godotengine #indiegamedev #godot_italia 020
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 22/04/2025At the end we just return our warnings array with return warnings Now, when we rename our node we can trigger our func and we can update the warnings func _on_path_renamed() -> void: print("Path renamed: ", path.name) a = NodePath(path.name) update_configuration_warnings() and here we are! 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 22/04/2025That's pretty easy, every node derives from the Node class! and guess what? There's a signal for that! The signal is called: renamed() Simple right? let's check again else: path = get_node(NodePath(a)) if !path.renamed.is_connected(_on_path_renamed): path.renamed.connect(_on_path_renamed) 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 22/04/2025A renamed node will change the path name, so I decided to add the name of the node has a NodePath and I performed my check if !has_node(NodePath(a)): warnings.append("Path node is missing.") thanks to that I'll be sure to check for the name, but wait! how do I know when the name changes? 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 22/04/2025func _get_configuration_warnings() -> PackedStringArray: var warnings := PackedStringArray() inside this function we can add all of our checks, in my case I wanted to be sure to have a Line2D node. in my checks I firstly check for has_node("Line2D"), the problem is... if you rename the node, puff 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 22/04/2025I've been looking in every corner of the manual nowdays, and today I found the configuration_warnings! Here what it does, first of all your script must be a tool, otherwise it will not works. you can use the func _get_configuration_warnings() that returns a StringArray in this way 100
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 22/04/2025Hey! What's up? I've been experimenting a lot today and here some results! Have you ever wonder on how to have this warning here? For example in your CharacterBody2D when you're missing the CollisionShape2D? Here's a thread for you! #godot #madewithgodot #godotengine #indiegamedev #godot_italia 191
Reposted by 42 Games LabZein ➜ Soulblaze Out Now @zein.games · 20/04/2025Do you have custom resources with a lot of exposed variables which are only important when certain conditions are met? You can hide variables by using tool scripts! Find the code example from #Soulblaze here: gist.github.com/ideamonster/... #GodotTips #Gamedev #Indiedev #Godot 56917
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 18/04/2025From this you can get all the information that you need. Usually you can compare the name, but you can also check if the collided object is in a group or my favourite is.... has_meta("your_meta") You can add all the metadata that you want in a list and check for them, you can also set or get them! 000
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 18/04/2025That's for people who work with 2D! You can use raycast to check the collision, usually with get_collider(). #godot #godot_italia #madewithgodot #indiegamedev #gamedev #sologamedev #godotengine 183
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 16/04/2025Meanwhile, here a new mechanic for my game, a dimensional block that activates when interact with the player #indiegamedev #gamedev #madewithgodot #godot #mobilegames #indiegames #puzzlegames #androidgame #android #playstore #timefracture #italiangamedev 0105
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 14/04/2025New level added to my puzzle game Time Fracture! I hope people will enjoy the final gameplay, because I'm trying my best :) #indiegamedev #gamedev #madewithgodot #godot #mobilegames #indiegames #puzzlegames #androidgame #android #playstore 0112
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 09/04/2025Right now it's just an experiment with shaders, I'm not very good with it, It runs very fast on a surface 1024x1024 and a subdivision or 2048x2048, next step is implement a quadrant quality subdivisions in order to optimise it. Higher count closer to the player, lower further away :) 010
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 09/04/2025The beginning of a new adventure.... I'm starting to develop a #game of pirates. #indiegamedev #madewithgodot #godot #indiegame 281
42 Games Lab @pixeltidesgames.bsky.social · 04/04/2025My brain doesn't wrap around all these ais ahahha thank you!!! 010
