Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 21/05/2026Spent 5 hours refactoring the dialogue system. Dialogue can now just be written as plain-text either in the CSV or Excel sheet. Automatically grabs translation strings, character portraits, voices etc. With temp caching too for ✨performance✨ It's 2am I'm going to bed blehh #IndieGameDev #GodotEngine 1102
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 04/03/2026Semester 2 group project prototype demo complete, after much crashing out. Now to work on other things for a bit before turning this into a full game. Blehh #indiegamedev #gamedev #MadeWithUnity #lowpoly #retro 2142

Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 23/01/2026Would @srpelo.bsky.social get mad at me if I chopped up his voice from ENA and turned it into a UTDR-esque dialogue voice text thingy. #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine 191
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 14/12/2025Just finished up uni for the semester and I definitely *haven't* already lost my mind. 030
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 27/11/2025Started university about 11 weeks ago and as part of my course I've had to learn Unity. It's going pretty well so far. Decided to make a procedurally generated infinite racer. Here's the skybox shader! #indiegamedev #gamedev #unity #madewithunity 0123
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 12/09/2025New Twenty Øne Pilots album is FIRE!!! One Way/Days Lie Dormant is an instant favourite. I'm so giddy it's such a good album muehehehe 030
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 05/09/2025Me and a few others have been working on this ✨yuriful✨ masterpierece over in Canada 071
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 05/09/2025Nightmare of a thing to implement but got dragging and rotating inventory items working. As well as shape vertex generation and highlighting items and grid slots. #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #2d 1223
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 27/08/2025Been working on an inventory system teehee #indiegamedev #gamedev #godot #godotengine 0121
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 20/07/2025Wasted so much time today trying to figure out a way to test this stuff on the same computer blehhhh. Eh whatever, time doing is time learning. Made a couple of bug fixes in my endeavour anyway. #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine 1122
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 19/07/2025The woes of spending many hours building a uid system only to realise you've programmed yourself into a corner and it would've been so much easier from the beginning to just use Steam IDs on their own. I'm not crying, you are. #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #godotsteam 0211
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 16/07/2025Yeah I'm going to bed it's nearly 4:30am blehhhhhh #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine 192
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 16/07/2025Like this is a really specific case for the player management panels but the code just feels so bulky. Probably just me though. Balatro is thousands of if statements tbf 010
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 16/07/2025I decided to generalise online IDs to save myself headache later. Also just a good practice in data management. It's been a while since I've written important data-driven systems. It's not likely I'll get the chance to go multiplatform, but it's nice to have the option. #indiegamedev #godotengine 050
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 14/07/2025Song (menu) that might play (will show) when you fight Sans (press escape). #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #ui 0101

Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 16/06/2025Decided to make a small demo of the template (soon to be Dead Air) so far. It shows off: Main menu Settings menu (language, audio, video) Custom hover tooltips Stamina/sprinting Audio occlusion muffling Health & Vignette effects Injured state #indiegamedev #godotengine #ui #3d 0101
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 15/06/2025Working on audio pooling atm and the mesh debug system is pretty cool #indiegamedev #godotengine #3d #audio 081
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 14/06/2025Both Audio and Video tabs are now complete (for what I want for now), things are coming together! #indiegamedev #godotengine #ui 031

Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 10/06/2025Started chipping away at the Video Settings panel :p And of course, fully savable to config and localisable :D #indiegamdev #godotengine #ui 120

Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 27/05/2025Oh my goodness it's been yonks since I've posted anything game dev (sorry!) Recently I've been working on putting together a template for myself for first person games, latest on the chopping block was the game UI: Health bar and vignettes! #indiegamedev #godotengine #3d #ui 0101
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 24/05/2025Oh so that's what I've been doing when blacked out. #indiegamedev #godotengine 0111
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 13/02/2025Some pretty neat things going on for my academy game. Procedurally generated ice texture and world (w/ caves) Took a few iterations but I like how spaghetti the caves are. #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #2d #procgen 0133
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 06/02/2025Did somebody say early version of a dialogue box? #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine 1152
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 04/02/2025T'isn't very much, but I thought I'd post an early prototype of the main menu of the game I'm working on for a game dev academy I'm taking part in: #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine 1133
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 22/12/2024Ye, that might change things a bit, but the general premise is the same, you can add on from here. This is code from an older project, can't guarantee it will work plug & play for you, code also in alt. I modified this from a tutorial, tried to find it for you but couldn't, there's lots on YT tho. 200
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 20/12/2024I slapped some textures on this here fella and did some more work on the interactable pads Animations of the pads up on Patreon soon! #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #3d 171
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 19/12/2024Oh my god forgive me, I completely forgot. You can kinda ignore the ComponentManager system and access the parent node directly if you want, I just did it like this because of the way I like to structure things. 110
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 19/12/2024A bit bare-bones atm, but I've started working on implementing interactable objects (and the game start sequence :o). Realising more and more every day how simultaneously easy and difficult it is to make a game. #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #3d 1163
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 17/12/2024Oh... That's an abstract liminal dimension designed by a benevolent god for the express purpose of obliterating the minds of and bifurcating the sanity from the poor unfortunate souls blasphemous and driven enough to pursue justice for their celestial misdeeds... 210
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 17/12/2024I uhh... I messed something up since last I tested the eyes... #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #3d 1195

Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 15/12/2024Procrastinated a lot of the day, have a screenshot of the language selection menu :p #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #accessibility 191
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 14/12/2024I did a smart thing and now have my game on GitHub so if my laptop explodes I don't cry (too much) because it's all lost. Kind of annoyed though because I accidentally deleted my old diffs, but it's fine I guess :( #indiegamedev #gamedev #github 2132
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 12/12/2024Hi chat, mostly refactoring for today. Although I did start making some flowcharts to keep me right. And I'm also gonna shamelessly promote my (empty) Discord, if you wanna ask questions about my game or game dev or just shoot the shit. I won't bite c: discord.gg/rXFtEAZ8Ek #indiegamedev #gamedev 071
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 10/12/2024Don't know if I'm going to be able to fully localise the entire game from head to toe, but I've made a start on at least (most) of the main menu/starting screens. #indiegamedev #gamedev #godotengine #accessibility 1244
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 09/12/2024And a cheeky lil bonus screenshot too of the error reporting 010
Pixel - GameDev @pxlheart.co.uk · 09/12/2024Turns out the other day I kind of reinvented the wheel. Today I ported over my translations and text-resizing system to Godot's built-in Localisation system and it's much nicer and easier to work with in-engine, and to write new translations. #indiegamedev #gamedev #godot #accessibility 2122
