finally got my grass to play nicely w/ my wobbly outline. the transparency gradient was causing it to bypass the post processing entirely, but adding an invisible pass that renders only to the depth buffer fixes it!! i really wanna add a foliage tool to my level editor aaaaaaaaa #lowpoly #shaders

okay, so like.. day 18 of working on my custom level editor and i just SNATCHED the editor-only Godot code for the 3D transformation gizmo thingy and made it work in my game since nothing I made came anywhere close to as good as this

wait I just noticed WHERE IS THE SOUND EFFECTS. The music wasn't supposed to be there, I think I enabled the wrong audio channels 😭😭😭😭 (For da normies, there's normally sounds for me clicking and typing on my keyboard)

spent yesterday open-sourcing a small handful of utils for Godot for a friend to help w/ creating Twitch overlays like mine that animate visuals based on your mouse position and keyboard inputs! #vtuber #coding check it out here: codeberg.org/SomeRanDev/Godot-Twitc…

I made a Monkey Ball-like game in less than 24 hours for the HaxeJam 2026 Summer Game Jam! (I recommend volume on for the attached video 🔊🔊) #godot #haxe Watch me make it in its entirety on Twitch! www.twitch.tv/videos/28538... Play on 🌐browser and RATE NOW!! somerandev.itch.io/horse-balls

not much gamedev progress today but HEY check out my first gnome extension. it replicates the monitor-barrier resistance that i loved from Windows; the primary reason i didn't switch to #linux sooner. #gnome extensions.gnome.org/extension/1074…

added a bucket tool to my level editor and it's pretty satisfying. IGNORE MY UGLY PLACEHOLDER TOOLBAR I'm hoping to beautify (and gameify??) it this weekend. i should probably also add some other selection shapes like circle and uhhhhh.... idk something #godot

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 21/08/2026
IM EXCITED FOR DISSS. I need to work on my site too, the placeholder front page for someran.dev is turning a year old next month. 😩

Nahh the local copy on my PC looks like this too I'm just dumb 😭

I'm excited to hopefully get player spawning done by the end of the month!! But the real REAL superpower is player-made levels maybe (:

OMG I didn't check the footage before posting cause I want to get in the habit of posting without overthinking BUT WHY TF IS IT GLITCHING LIKE THAT NOOOOO 😭😭

made some assets on stream yesterday! next goal is to support placing them in my custom level editor (ʃƪ˘ﻬ˘) #godot #gamedev

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 20/08/2026
THERES NO WAY I DIDNT MENTION IT ON STREAM BEFORE RIIIIIGHT?? It's what I'm talking about when I go on my crazy rants about rollback and physics determinism. 😔🙂‍↕️

Online multiplayer is also supported with each player simply controlling one of the characters!

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 20/08/2026
WOO thanks for the support last post!! (300 likes???) I'm trying to get back into posting gamedev daily! To show the actual game I'm working on: it's a 3D puzzle platformer where you play as two characters simultaneously, and is basically A Hat in Time meets the multiplayer mode of Portal 2. #godot

NO DONT LOOK IT'S NOT READY YET

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 19/08/2026
Written in Rust cause wanted sum types (+performance), but as a result, had a lot of trouble incorporating as Godot editor tool scripts. It's why my next attempt at a level editor is completely within the game... which is kinda lame but may allow players to use it? Closed source atm sorry!!

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 19/08/2026
honestly the hardest part was making the walls disappear when you look through them, had to encode their "looking direction" into vertex color when generating the mesh, and then I read from that on the shader to make them disappear

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 19/08/2026
ong there needs to be more level editor tools for godot

Interiors have been the bane of my existence for 3d level development so hoping this fixes that pain 💀

YOOOO WAIT A SECOND YOU RITE. Whipping this out when I finally convince my gang to play

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 19/08/2026
IDK that's what I thought when I first saw the Portal 2 editor so I'm glad I was able to recreate that feeling in other people 😭😭
010
SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 19/08/2026
my game's inspired by portal 2, so figured i'd try and make a portal 2 inspired level editor for it. #godot #gamedev

Aww yeesh, it's been 2 months? I need to post here more. 😩 Non-stop gamedev grind starting TODAY. To finish off the 3D subtitles renderer saga, here's the first short I posted using them (and also check out my epic multi-platform content redirector): shorts.someran.dev/3

🙂‍↕️Nah you're so valid for that, i also love morning a lot. I jump out of bed and immediately grind on PC if I'm working on something I'm passionate about. My issue is trying to shift gears when I'm laser-focused on one thing, and I got 4 projects to juggle. 😭😭 I've been getting better tho!!

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 15/04/2026
Your content and game dev work ethic is something I aspire to achieve. I blink and it feels like there's so much eye-popping art and updates vids on my timelines. You're doing so good, and you inspire me a lot. Please keep up the good work!! >.<

Part 4 of making cutscene/events scripting language for #gamedev. Added ENUMS. They can generate as ints or strings (for now???). Works nicely with the custom syntax feature. #coding
Shows SillyScript enums and their corresponding output to JSON

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 12/10/2025
The custom syntax can be used immediately after declaring it. Still working on allowing the same syntax to be redeclared with different types!

SOME_RAN_DEV @someran.dev · 12/10/2025
Part 3 of makin custom #coding language for game ✧˖°. After STRUGGLING for a week, finally got custom syntax declarations working. 🎉 Since each project I use this for may require different structures for conditional statements/loops/etc., wanted a way to define them on a per-project basis #gamedev
An image that demonstrates the structure of a "syntax" declaration.

Its content is:

syntax [SYNTAX_NAME]:
  pattern: # First possible pattern
    [SYNTAX_PATTERN_1]

  # Can have multiple patterns...
  pattern: # Second possible pattern
    # Patterns can use any characters.
    # Pattern starts after first indent after pattern
    a 1 🎃
    
    # Use triangle-brackets for expression inputs
    # <[NAME]: [TYPE]>
    <myNumber: int>
  

# Whitespace is ignored unless identation changes,
# so this is valid use of the syntax.
a 1 🎃 69Shows real, usable examples of "syntax" declaration.

# "Butt" syntax
syntax Butt:
  pattern:
    ɷ <buttData: int>

ɷ 123;

[
  {
    "buttData": 123
  }
]

----------

def Action(name: string) -> dict:
  name: name;

def RandomlyTrue(chance: float) -> dict:
  chanceOfTrue: chance;

# "if" syntax
syntax If:
  pattern:
    if <conditionData: dict>:
      <actions: list>

if RandomlyTrue(0.2):
  Action("Hop");
  Action("Skip");
  Action("Jump");

[
  {
    "conditionData": {
      "chanceOfTrue": 0.2
    },
    "actions": [
      { "name": "Hop" },
      { "name": "Skip" },
      { "name": "Jump" }
    ]
  }
]
