Another “proud of myself” update from today: Art team asked for a way to produce high quality, transparent images of characters mid-animation. So now if dev-cheats are enabled, there’s a menu on the pause screen to make them! Supports zoom, pan, & mirror. Great for button making. ~200 lines of code.

Pretty proud of the way I built the new settings menu for Mountains & Molehills. The way the settings page saves and updates makes it pretty easy for the rest of the game to alter itself around the settings. I’m using it now to implement a “reduced motion” mode for accessibility

You’d think that FREQUENTLY mentioning that we are an ZERO-AI studio would be a big enough hint, but never underestimate how dense tech grifters can be. 🙄 Silly me missing out on $5000 in slop store credit though
Lengthy email from a youtuber trying to offer a sponsorship for their “AI game engine.”

I truly love the ambitious push to better your game when you have a live showcase coming up, but I gotta say I never realized how difficult it is to regularly market online during that crunch period for a small studio. I want to make videos and posts but I also have 10,000 lines of code to write 🫨

Suggestion for fellow game devs: If you plan on making your own sounds, consider getting a Zoom H1 handy recorder. It’s probably the best possible quality-to-price ratio mic you can get for sound effects. #NotSponsored lol

Looks like my invite to slop&theft-con finally arrived. 🙄 Podunk Games is a strictly zero-ai studio, and that isn’t changing.

I was messing around with shaders for the revamped Picnic Mouse shop and accidentally made the mouse ace.

This is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen in my entire life
Amiibo for the latest Ocarina of Time remake allow you to superimpose the Nintendo64 faces of both link and Zelda onto the new link model.

Decided recently to start spending some time in Shadertoy as a playground for later making cool shaders for Mountains & Molehills. Welp, I’m addicted. Late to the party, sure, but I can’t believe how little math it takes to make some extremely mesmerizing stuff. Can’t wait to dive deeper!

Our programmer wizard Andrew’s going to be working on the new inventory system for the relics tonight at 6pm est on YouTube! Come stop by to hang out & ask us about our 3 cats (they have yet to push any changes in GitHub but the cats tell us their code is purr-fect).

Somebody steal this business idea from me, PLEASE! Hire a few writers ahead of time to begin work on young-adult version of those Choose-your-own adventure books, to be released on audiobook platforms. Then add a million ways to pick a choice. Popup on a smart watch, a Bluetooth clicker, something.

Got an hour to spare today or tomorrow? Leave some kind comments on things you enjoy. Tell a developer they're doing a great job, or let an artist know their work is incredible. It can make a big difference in someone's day, trust me.

Quick look at an animation test for the new Munchroom enemy. It’ll only spawn in area 2 in the final game, but I added it to area 1 for testing. Also a brief glimpse at the dev cheat menu lol. #MadeWithGodot #indiedev
