Testing out some online dithering tools. The first image was dithered with doodad.dev/dither-me-this and the second was dithered with dithering.sigrist.dev

I think I like the one from sigrist more but I'm not sure. The Kurt Kobain poster isn't as readable on that one

I started learning css and html to make a site on neocities. I'm not sure what kind of site I want to make but it's fun to learn anyway 🥰

I've been trying to get this water fountain statue to look right from these three main angles. I think fixing the platform's texture would help a lot with readability but it's getting closer to the right vibe.

Health indicator portraits done. I don't know why I can't get the facial hair to look right but it's all right for now I guess lol

This is my first attempt at making the penblade in blender for my heartslike game. I think it's a little too much like a real pen, but it's a start at least. I liked the idea of the pen clicking to reveal the blade, but it might look better to base it off a fountain pen instead

I have an idea for a heartslike game that might be unique enough to finish. I was thinking what random object could have meaning as a weapon and decided on a penblade that collects enemy blood for magic sigils. So far it's just my boyfriend kicking some orbs ;D

I got a hard-coded response working! Yay! Now I can replace it with a check for possible responses to the input text so it'll output something more relevant for each thing the player sends.

does anyone know where to report a typo in the godot documentation?

So far I have a chat window you can scroll, close, open and drag. Next is text input with responses ;D

my boyfriend informed me that I was using a dictionary to emulate an array and accessing it as a stack ~ so I converted the chat history dictionary to a chat history array and used pop_front() instead of using a chat_index variable. i think this might be better for memory management?

The overall aesthetic isn't right yet, but I got the chat window to output the chat history from a txt file! Yay!

I see too many new developers neglect their naming scheme when writing code. Its very important to learn this early on, so your code is more readable, understandable, and organized. While there are other style guides and conventions these are from the #Godot docs.

starting off i'm gonna make 25 mbwozi social profiles with their own unique responses with a cap on the hackable computers at three for now, but that might increase. I'll probably make at least 100 characters in total to make the world feel lived in but we'll see

I've decided the game I want to make is BodivaOS. A game set in a fictional operating system where you hack into everyone's computers and go through their private messages ~ you can chat with every character, which might get you caught but might lead to new discoveries

I always have the weirdest dreams that would be perfect for putting into game stories. I usually wake up super confused by what just happened but am immediately inspired to write 😄

The only road to my house got shut down because of an accident while I was out getting groceries. They said it's gonna be at least two hours before it opens again 😭 I feel lost not being able to work on godot for so long

Trying to come up with a character design for a virtual companion in my mystery game set in a fantasy operating system ~ I'm kind of learning towards a cartoony lil bald dude with poofy clothes.
