Happy Halloween! 🎃 After 4 months of work, VAMPIRES, my immersive short story, is finally released.
This is a pretty personal work, so take your time with it. It's about 15,000 words, so not super long.
halfcourtyeet.itch.io/vampires
Enjoy!

Part 23: Item drops work in 2D and 3D! They can be picked up and dropped with ease. This is a small feature, but a huge milestone!

Part 22:
Still working on inventory.
Faster and more convenient to batch render blocks (one-click!) using Godot's SubViewports, Image class, and DirAccess. Otherwise I'd need to render every block in your inventory uniquely, which would be horrible for performance.

@katewillaert.bsky.social's newest video is fucking awesome.

Great documenting of how language evolves over time, here in the context of games.
I think since it was such a nascent and quickly developing medium, so much of games terminology has just been
chaos, lol.

Do you guys think a game like Art Academy can actually teach you any art skills, or is it all just fun and games?

Progress on Alpha 2! I overhauled pretty much the entire layout based on playtesting feedback. #TeamFortress2 #TF2 #gamedev

Getting stuck causes players to explore the world.
Dying causes players to think about what they're doing.
An "impossible" situation causes players to learn how the game works and eventually achieve the impossible.
We need to be able to design *some* games around these fundamental ideas.

Part 15: Do things look the same?
Well, under the hood... I implemented a revolutionary time-saving algorithm so you can place and remove blocks without a single frame drop! Special thanks to @weregruyere.bsky.social for all his help, seriously.

Not as much progress as I'd hoped for this weekend but I finished her face texture and tried something fun with her glasses.
Don't come for me for that wasted UV space it's a wip😶🌫️
Also how freaking hard is it to model glasses???

Day 14 PART 2!!!
Got a bounding box working for blocks selected! There was an option to also show the vertices- I'm keeping it because it has flair.
Need to thicken the lines at some point.
