Idk... it's hard to be optimistic when you see what's going on around the world. But hey... another weekend another chance to work on my little game - let's try to push. #gamedev #godot #motivation

Once had a boss who had this great 'gun-fu' game idea. He assumed players could just take down 5 smart, armed enemies like in movies—no slowmo, no turn-based planning. No nothing.
"What if the 2nd guy shoots you while you attack the 1st?"
"Idk. But I don't want stupid AI like in AC" #gamedev

The idea came from the Brackeys game jam—I wasn't able to compete, but the theme "Nothing can go wrong" sparked an idea: what if we have a story with no happy ending, but by changing just one word, we can make the kid happy? That's the idea. Let's see if I can pull it off. #gamedev #godot #solodev

ok. Stickers on laptops... yay or nay? Serious question.

So... I have this idea for a short narrative game... Let's see if I can finish one project with a complete game loop :D. I was away for the last 2 days, so I've prepared some pixel art for it. #pixelart #gameidea #godot #learning #gamedev

The nice thing about learning through micro-projects is that each one looks better than the last, and they're easy to finish... (mostly because I'm the one deciding when it's "done" ;) ) #godot #learningtosolodev #gamedev

We live in a fucked up world. #gamedev
"Metacritic at 80 too doesn’t exactly suggest a very strong launch."

God, the video games industry/culture is so fucked. Getting an AVERAGE OF EIGHTY PERCENT is "not strong"

(it is referring to Civ 7)

I have an idea for a future GTA1-like project. It's wayyyy out of my grasp right now, but there's nothing wrong with drafting some pixel art for it, right? Maybe I'll use it in that project... or maybe another. #godot #learning #pixelart

Guess who tried to add a crosshair to their game for 2 hours? Me! Without any tutorial! :D
Though I'm a hundred percent sure I'll find out that my method won't work with web shooting...
And that there's a method that creates a crosshair in less than 10 minutes. BUT I DID IT. #godot #learning

Soooo, I did buy myself an early bday present ;D Not gamedev-related, I'm afraid. I love telling and writing stories, and I've been looking at some kind of #writerdeck for a while. When I saw a used one for sale in great condition—let's just say I snapped it up in a second! ;) #freewrite

Plan for the weekend: Create a rope swing mechanic in a 3d project.
Do I have any idea how?
Nope. 😁
Wish me luck!
