“What a perfect day to start working on my Ludum Dare entry!”, said I to myself 12 hours before the deadline.

Ever thought what if Balatro would be a roguelite top down shooter? No? Well, too bad, because I made a game that is exactly that for LD58!

My #7DRL progress so far

#gamedev #indiedev #solodev #picotron

Playing around with #Picotron and out of curiosity decided to see if it's possible to make a "BBS-like" kind of application, considering how Picotron can do the networking and stuff.

And you know what, it's kinda fun!

And for the last Screenshot Saturday of 2024, let me show you a "fancified" version of my current rogue-esque project. Added some of my fave postFX and less noticeable "pixel art" sampling shader and MSDF bitmap fonts.

I keep tinkering with my rogue-esque project. Added shooting animation, possible sparks and screenshake. Also I added a very very early iteration of HUD just to see how it feels and stuff.

⚠️ Warning: slight screenshake effect in gif

⚠️ You've been spotted 👁️

Now when I finally have the level generator dealt with, I can focus on other aspects. Like enemies. Haven't done much today but! I added an enemy and made this little ping animation for player to see that they've been spotted.

Level generator MVP ✅

I finally finished working on the first pass of the level generator for my roguelike side project. Learned *a lot* about memory management in Odin in the process and optimised the process to the brim memory-wise.

Spent a lot of time today working on my roguelike thing, and I made a scene system so I could separate scenes, and after that I ported first half of my level gen algo from Lua to Odin.

Now to make rooms more interesting and branching...

#Gamedev #Odin #Roguelike #Roguelikedev #ScreenshotSaturday

Added fade-in/out fx for tiles when they go into the light and back into shadows. And because of that I also implemented a tween system in Odin which feels more like a forbidden dark magic rather than funny OOP I wrote before for the same purpose. 😅

Now with 100% more FOV

Okay, using Odin and Raylib for gamedev purposes is as interesting as I thought.

Finally I have something decent I can show for #ScreenshotSaturday! After few days of streaming on Twitch (which is, by the way, turned out to be a very productive tool for my game development adventure) I finally made some big progress on my game theGRIMOIRE_. #gamedev #indiedev #solodev

Speaking of #gamedev, I didn't really introduce what I am working on. Back in April I made a small puzzle game for LD55 jam, theGRIMOIRE_, and now I'm expanding it towards a full game.
