The #pnw right now

The #pnw right now
Having #ADHD and doing #gamedev (especially solo) feels a lot like being Sisyphus, but also accidentally letting the boulder roll down the hill cause you weren't quite fully paying attention
There's not a single thing I work on that stays one thing. It always branches into at least 3 more 😆

Clearing a clogged storm drain of leaves and yard debris so the flooded street can drain is so satisfying 😌
All ya need are boots, a bucket, and a rake!

I get accidentally leaving trash behind, but people who just dump trash in forests and natural areas should be forced to go clean it and at least one other spot

Debugging is fun because you can be like "why is this rock I just broke still the same weight as before"
And then you look at the clock and it's been 2 hours

I love me some high quality hobby supplies. Whether it's a fancy set of brushes, a drawing tablet with a screen, or maybe a really nice pair of hiking boots.
BUT
It's SOO fun seeing how much you can stretch bottom of the barrel, cheap supplies! Sure the quality is worse, but IT'S FUN

My new game about #rockhounding is slowly coming together!
Been focusing on the environment working, because there has to be lots and lots of rock variety!

Sometimes doing UVs and texturing can be tricky because of little nooks and crannies in the model, but you can duplicate part of the mesh or make shape keys to explode it and simplify the process a little bit :)

Lmao the new game I'm working on is conceptually simpler than some of the other projects I've worked on but it's LITTERED with unique UI elements and different cameras, throwing me for a loop a bit 😅

I'm curious what Affinity's announcement is gonna be in regards to the "creative freedom" today. Hoping it's something super useful and not a rug pull for the existing customer base :)

I need an in game calendar for my current project(s), and I am resisting the urge to make an overkill solution by rebuilding an actual calendar 🫠

Hiking and finding cool rocks is a blast, but I GOT TO SEE AN OWL 😍😍
I was carrying our toddler and my wife looked up from tying her boot to see a shadow swooping down at us from behind!!
It was trying to be all imposing in the rain but I know behind those talons is a 2lb raging cotton ball 🤗

The truism of "if you can't make ot fun woth just cubes, you can't make it fun with amazing graphics" just highlights this point.
Point A has a powerup. Point B has health. Point C a secret door. Point D is the exit. That's your level at its most stripped back.

Trying to chisel away at some mineral stone we got rockhounding recently, a fragment split off and it has quartz, grossular garnet, and epidote all clustered together

You'd think a day of adventure would wipe a toddler out but instead it's me, barely awake face down on the floor while she begins to dump out the magnet tiles 🤣
