Kaixo denoi! It's been a while but I took some time to improve Eskua: 🖌️ Unified the width of all characters ✋ Extended glyph set: consonants, digraphs like tx, tz, ts, etc. 🔟 Added numbers from the Basque millers' system Yes, I'm proud of it 😄 👉 tokiko-studio.itch.io/eskua

A long time ago, I made a font based on the Hand of Irulegi, the proto-basque bronze artifact from the 1st century BC. So of course I made a mug design! A real deal (with 15% off): ☕ You have a super cool mug 🤝 You support a basque gamedev 👉 shop.tokiko.studio/ Milesker 🫶

Mug with a stylized Hand of Irulegi and the word "sorioneku" using the eskua font, the paleohispanic rune-shaped writing.
The mug layout is made so that left-handed people would see the Hand of Irulegi while drinking.

I have created an "experimental" Steam branch on Kofoin! Every new things will be pushed there, probably some bugs too, so if you want to take a peak before an official release, it's there 😉 🐝 store.steampowered.com/app/2418530/...

Working on Kofoin progression system, and obviously I went for an hexagonal skill tree 🐝🌳 #kofoin #gamedev #indie

Screenshot of Kofoin game inside Godot, showing a work in progress Skill Tree, with hexagonal nodes, and showing non-translated text.
Somes nodes are for Bee or Hive stats update, and some bigger showing Blessings or big upgrade.

"Today, I'll squash some bugs!" A few moments later … "Now I have more bugs, and squashed my title screen 🤷"

I just discovered that Godot 4.5 have a "View > Preview Translation" button, in the top toolbar of the viewport. Super nice to check if everything fits in the box, for right-to-left and non-latin character languages! #indiedev #indiegamedev #godotengine

Godot 4.5 screenshot with the View > Preview Translation menu open. There is nothing fancy to see except the two button highlighted so other people could find the menu.

I started Kofoin because: - I like Tower Defense genre - I wanted to make a game in Basque language Now with 350+ wishlists & soon releasing in Early Access on Steam, I feel proud, amazed and terrified all at once 😅 To everyone supporting me, you are awesome, milesker! 🫶

Trying some Life/Experience gauge in Kofoin. It's mostly an hexagon SDF, a some voronoi noise, and some math with polar/radial UV projections. #solodev #indiegame #madewithgodot

Working on game's UI really feels like fine-tunning a very small clock, but it is really satisfying when everything fits together! #indiegame #gamedev #madewithgodot #screenshotsaturday

A screenshot of Godot editor with the game in the center(it is a Tower Defense with bees) on which UI elements are visible: On the top left corner the Polllen resource indicator, top center show a countdown and next wave of enemies, top right is a gear/cog icon. Bottom left displays the Hive life, and the rest of the bottom is filled with hexagonal icons for actions, spells and available flowers to built.

A small Godot tip if you want to have nodes (ex: debug button) that only exists when the game runs in the editor (ex: by pressing F5), use: ✅ OS.has_feature("editor") ❌ Engine .is_editor_hint() Is for "@ tool" scripts inside editor. #godotengine #indiedev #gamedevtips

A screenshot of Visual Studio Code showing two panels:
On the left, a Godot node hierarchy with as root a Control, with a Button child.
On the right, the following code:

```
extends Control
func _enter_tree() -> void:
if not OS.has_feature("editor"):
$Button.queue_free()
```

This is useful to check if the game is currently running inside the editor itself, and in the exemple given, will delete the child button from the hierarchy, preventing it from being usable in non-editor game.

A very nice tip from a friend was to store my game data in a google sheet, and then use some code to download and integrate it automatically: Using Godot, it's quite easy, with curl through HTTPRequest to Google Sheet API 👍 Link to code below ⬇️ #gamedevtip #madewithgodot

A screenshot of an EditorPlugin showing code to retrieve a google sheet in Json format through curl using Godot HTTPRequests.

Making a small Tower Defense with Bees! Also, what you see is what happens when you have no artist, only programmers. #madewithgodot #screenshotsaturday

A screenshot of a work in progress game: it is a Tower Defense based on a hexagonal tiled map. You must protect your Hive by managing your bees. Ant enemies are shown spawning from edge of the map.

Making a game with a custom engine is a lot of fun but sometimes you just want to add a simple thing, and then realise how many other simple (or not!) things need to be made before... But at least (thanks to emscripten) I now have a working Web (internal) demo working! 😉 #gamedev #indiedev

When done, we will create a script that use the `keyboard_get_keycode_from_physical` and the `get_keycode_string` to retrieve the layout-dependant key, get our texture resource path and format the rich label with it. And tada!

A screenshot of a GDScript extending RichTextLabel. It defines a list of PNG resources associated with lowercase letter (ex: "keyboard_a.png" for the 'a' letter). Then it retrieve the physical keycode for the letter Q, convert it to lowercase string, use the key to retrieve the asset path, and format the RichTextLabel with the path, effectively display the corresponding texture.

Tokiko Studio @tokiko.studio · 29/08/2024

First we will need some assets for letters, I highly recommand @kenney.bsky.social 's kenney.nl/assets/input-prompts ( thank you! 🙏 ). Then we have to setup a RichTextLabel, enable the BBCode and use the [img] tag with a {texture} variable that will be formated by script.

I have a little thing I wanted to share for Godot users. Not all people have "qwerty" keyboard (azerty, qwertz, and so on), and let's say we want to display "Press [key]" in some UI that follow the player keyboard layout. Let's see how to do this:🧵👇 #madewithgodot #indiegamedev
