I'm an indie dev working on a game inspired by PS2 action platformers such as Ratchet and Clank, Jak and Daxter, and Sly Cooper. Today I've been working on crates :)

I think all games should have challenges where the reward is a picture of the dev's dog

More than 1 week later, I now have a very nice feeling node map generator for my roguelike game!
Also the lines wiggle now lol

I can now divide the map into 1/5ths, which means I have greater control over the RNG difficulty curve. For example, I know nodes marked as "3" are in the middle of the map, so I can make them have a higher spawn rate for mini bosses.

Attempt #3 at a roguelike node map, now I can draw dotted lines between nodes as well as track where the player is at AND can go in real time!

A continuation of yesterdays roguelike node map attempt.
On top of generation improvements, I can also now determine where you're at on the map (Blue) and where you're allowed to go (Green)!

Chalking today's attempt at making a procedural roguelike node map to a failure. At least the end result looks cool when you ask it to generate a new map every half second lol
I have a new idea on how to tackle this, will update when I figure it out.

What's supposed to happen: You take your turn, then the enemy takes their turn by smoothly turning the arrow to the desired rotation.
What actually happens: SPIIIIIIIN

It's time to drop the concept for this lil' prototype.
Roguelike dice builder to the tune of Slay The Spire/Peglin with physics based dice rolls. More info under this post if you're interested in my ramblings.

Gamers I need suggestions.
If you played a physics-based dice rolling game, would you prefer an orthographic or perspective view? Ignore that the dice are currently hard to read for both lol

Made a system that detects what your physics based dice rolled. I don't want to fake the roll through a random number generator.

One of the things I'm very happy with the release of my horror game that takes around an hour to complete, is the median time played is currently at 43 minutes :)
