Stream tomorrow (finally coming back to life after 5 months of moving and whatnot)

I have a goal of starting to upload/stream again by September, but no guarantees because life is life

I've been doing a whole lot of things that aren't particularly interesting or impressive, but I have been learning in the process soon enough I'll have more to show

today's progress was getting weapons most of the way working, next up is to give them noises and particles and stuff

Keleksos @pretzelproductions.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

got projectiles working, finally back to actually making solid progress on this (ft. local billboarding for the projectile's appearance, which godot doesn't have for some reason)

today's gamedev adventures: getting a bunch of neat stuff done, mostly easy stuff followed by going on a wild goose chase to figure out why a single vector subtraction was taking 100+ times as long as it was supposed to (it's a part of a loop that runs a lot so that's bad), only to get nowhere

a funny for #screenshotsaturday, can you tell I'm halfway through implementing this

I think I'm gonna do the post on main -> repost here thing instead of just posting here for anything I want to get actually seen for now lol

went to install resolve but it doesn't work after trying a couple of different things from the internet that are supposed to help kdenlive is absolutely unusable for me what other like... actually decent alternatives are there?

streaming stuff is very difficult when you have like, one viewer because you just don't have the feedback loop of interacting with chat to make your stream more engaging/less boring

gamedev in general is on hold for a moment while I get IRL stuff sorted (will return to it on wednesday or thursday)

I will be streaming Terraria the day 1.4.5 releases (January 27th) at www.twitch.tv/keleksos, not certain what time

made a debug tool for future me today, to visualize paths by just rendering a bunch of points

a number of points, colored red through green, making up 3/4 of a square. in the center the back side of a jet is visible

I haven't been doing anything super interesting lately, so here's what you can do if you've rotated a part in the same direction several billion times, thanks to floating point error #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #godot

a protoype of a hex-grid-based building game, showing a smooth circle made out of hexagonal prisms, arranged this way due to floating point error and collision margins.

I think experimenting with pathfinding in 3D space for ace-combat-like/jet movement will be fun

when I'm too tired to actually work on my projects I just mess around with the things I want to figure out how to use

a Godot NinePatchRect node, using a 2-minute texture drawn with a mouse with a wooden look

a godot CSG polygon stretched across a path3D, creating a sort of curved racetrack-like structure

Keleksos @pretzelproductions.bsky.social · 04/01/2026

ok so the game the recent posts have been for might actually turn into something it will live in my game ideas folder until I've made my other game though, as it is a bit less feasible for me to do alone with my (mostly nonexistent) level of experience

final thoughts: AC7 was overall fun, but the difficulty (both in general and differences between normal/hard/ace difficulty) was really weird I still don't feel like I "get" dogfighting, and that's kind of dissatisfying And the game just seems to be built around a feeling I don't really care for

Keleksos @pretzelproductions.bsky.social · 26/12/2025

I think for 2026 a thing I'm gonna do is set aside about 4 hours every week to just research stuff I need to find info on I'm not great at searching the internet (not helped by the sheer amount of slop on the internet now) so it'll be slow and take a lot of energy, but also is kind of necessary

pretty soon I'm also gonna make a quick prototype of a different idea I have for practice (that'll let me learn how to make the last of the core systems I'll need for the current one, plus let me find out if my 2nd idea is any good)

by combining the powers of both of my spaghetti code prototypes and that sky shader, I got this: #screenshotsaturday #godot

I was really frustrated with Kdenlive at first, but I think I'm going to let the limitations of it steer my editing style for a little bit. I have been meaning to simplify my editing for a while and this is a good opportunity to do it. Getting better software running on linux may be difficult anyway

now that I've added the rest of the parts this is starting to look like something a little bit

finally got the prototype inventory done, next I need to add more parts for the upcoming systems to build off of

added another part today because I do not have the energy for anything more

Rudimentary attachment point snapping, with code that doesn't depend on any particular grid (which will be very useful later)

A number of hexagonal prism shaped-blocks neatly aligned with each other.
