It's the last #ScreenshotSaturday of 2025!

As the year comes to a close, we’d love to see what you’re building with Defold.

Are you polishing something that’s nearly ready to ship, or laying the groundwork for a fresh project in the new year?

Lil Progress Update

(Damn, I'm so bad with promises. Im sorry)

After working on the Option system in Astro Impact! De_Make, I had to go back and redo the first level. Its in a better state now.

I also did work on the GUI. It looks and feels nice now
