last time I revisited the project, it looked a lot like this! kinda glad that I had to step away from it for so long to improve the direction and fantasy. to make it a more engaging immersive sim, when it comes to the narrative and tech.

had a moment of inspiration the other day, wondered how useful it would be to have animations made via combining a bunch of preset animations, it worked out to be more useful than I expected. the melee animations at the bottom were used to make all the animations above them if you can believe it.

Here's 90 seconds of REVOLUTION FANTASY, which I've been working on discreetly for the last few years. It's built on the bones of Tenderfoot Tactics, in Godot. This is a sandbox combat that I'm using to design skills and progression. Expect me to post a lot more about RF from here on out!

+1 on the suggestions pointing to small discord communities. found that most helpful and motivating, feels especially heartwarming whenever someone succeeds from it.

It's messing me up seeing things again that I haven't experienced since I was 10. I hate that I can't experience a game anymore without analysing why things worked. I wish I never did Media/Film Studies or made games so I could experience things normally again.

To work 60 hours a week just to be laid off before the game you destroyed yourself to make is released is... Fuck I don't even know what that is. Disgusting, at a minimum.

It was the anonymous developer who best expressed how the ripple effects of these events go beyond Dread XP, Critical Reflex, and Black Lantern Collective. "People keep saying things like 'indies will save the industry,'" she observed. "But if no one protects indie developers or calls out bad behavior happening at the indie level, who is going to save the indies?"

It always scares me how much trust people have in my talents that I don't see in myself. That imposter feeling has never left throughout my whole career in games How have you dealt with that feeling?

Hoping to do that once the tool is more mature, still improving then UI/UX authoring, but most of core concepts are already working great. Just hoping to dogfood it with full project personally before I feel comfortable going full public release mode on it.

in recent months, I've been trying to cook up my own visual scripting solution for Godot, that I've been wanting for years, that's heavily inspired by Construct's eventsheet visual scripting. it is still super WIP. #Godot #Construct3

had even randomly added guns just to see how it would look. thinking about it now, might have been fun to do some juicy camera transitions for it, could have turned into quick fun arena shooter romp

its kinda surprising what you end up cooking when you have no core design pillar in mind when making something. I have no friggin idea what I was thinking while making this awhile back other then throwing things at the wall and seeing what sticks! #gamedev
