Everything in my Godot scene comes from Blender!
Areas to exclude volumetric fog, NPC, doors, which objects to bake lighting. All Blender!
I'm doing this through custom properties. They arrive in the Godot dictionary.

Some WIP shots of a temple environment I was messing around with tonight. Among the game’s many progression mechanics, I’m toying with the idea of different temples (cults) you can align with. Each one has its own requirements to access the deepest levels. Kind of like Demon Doors in Fable.

Small change! If my campaign doesn’t fund, backers still get their money back, but I’ll still be delivering digital perks. So you'd still get the game.
I’m just not sure it’ll fund. Honestly, the fact people are willing to support my project at all means everything to me.

Exposure is tough on this platform. Haven’t cracked the code yet, but still excited to be making a game.

Even if nobody else plays my game, I love having these two (my kids) test for me!
They're surprisingly thorough at finding ways to break and uncover bugs. I typically sit down with a notepad and just write down all the stuff they find.

Just like that! First "Immortalized NPC" slot is gone. Someone just became an NPC in my game (pending us reaching the funding goal). Congrats and thanks for supporting #solodev

This is scary. I have a massive life update! I'm crowdfunding my game project. I've held off until I have most major game systems in place already. Go learn about my game and please share! It doesn't like me to send you somewhere else, so please check my profile for 🔗.

Two things I added to the game that I'm happy about 🙃
1- Helmet reflection. Very low cost. I'm mirroring the screen and filtering through a low res mask on the visor to give it this light reflect look.
2- Sound muffling when the helmet is on. Simple but I like!

When you play my game and work your way through the extensive gear upgrade system, just know it took my entire Christmas and New Year's break to figure out the logic and create art.
I'm so proud of it! It’s pretty extensive. Over 100 unique upgrades to discover (so far). #GodotEngine

Ten years ago today I married this girl! Best decision of my life. From failed business attempts to career crises and pivots, she’s been supportive, proud, and my teammate through it all.

Interior props will only load when entering interior spaces. Obviously this is terribly clanky right now. It's just a visualization as I learn.🙃
I'll be making it seamless so you don't see the load in and out.

Back to Devlog updates! This first one breaks down my new Godot + Blender pipeline.

All Offworld Depot props come in ridiculously low resolutions as an option. Because I absolutely use this option! If you download a low resolution as a .blend file, it automatically has image interpolation set to "closest" for that crunchy pixel look.

Two days into Godot and I’ve already got:
Basic movement
NPC dialog w/ simple branching
Crouch + overhead collision check
NPC head tracking (looks at you when you’re close)
This doesn’t feel like “the free option” at all. Just intuitive (from my extensive 2 days, lol). #GodotEngine
