Made a utility to automatically turn any hole in any geometry into a "light hole", which makes it appear as though it is connected to a different space on the other side by communicating light/darkness coming through.

custom particle processor with special emission mesh data.
selects randomized spawn positions on tris, then fetches uv mapped albedo texture texel on the tri, + inherits src tri lighting +bakes it into the particle at spawn time.
makes a neat stylized effect

Hey Bluesky! First post!
Finally wrapped up my Wolfenstein-Inspired laser cutter! It now comes with a ray marched strawberry banana flavored shader:)
Check out the breakdown in the artstation link below!

Did you know? Different from other Thread and Wheeled units, Spiders can cross mountains! And pack a pretty intense punch! But they have light armor so it's pretty easy to counter it! :)

how can cellular automata roads work, with entirely local decisions? it's somewhat weird and it gets at part of what's so wonderful about cellular automata!

cellular automata villages.
densely packed buildings, sparser outlying areas, and magic roads which actually connect things (and also make eerie ant mill circles)

Fun fact: the "chalk buildup" effect was actually a bug. I wasn't even planning to make chalk buildup because I thought it'd be too complex, but then I accidentally introduced inconsistent blending modes in different stages of the drawing pipeline, lol...

instead of directly rendering flickering sections of cellular automata, you can record how long it's been since they changed. anything newer than n is rendered in a special color. catches 100% of oscillators with period <= n.
this is good for both accessibility and procedural generation!

Godot's matrix system makes the flattening effect simple to achieve, for those who are wondering. No render textures or nested nodes required - just one line of code:

Alright #Godot devs, let's do a quick tutorial on making an Editor Plugin for #GodotEngine
The Godot Editor is itself a Godot project, so we can just use regular old gdscript to extend it
We will make a plugin that lets you rename a selected file

Agree, it's why I always recommend reading @brkeogh.bsky.social's book The Videogame Industry does not exist.
Games are a media, an art field. While it's understandable to want to help people pay bills, we undermine them by focusing so much on their monetization - especially when it's unrealistic.

I made a @tool script to make changing the level sequence in Hazard Pay trivial.
Piggy-backing on the Line2D node, I can use the point index to determine the Level order, and the position (after snapped to the TileMapLayer) to instantiate the LevelSelect scene. Nice!

Imagine if other artists were given advice like game devs are.
Don't try to paint your dream painting, do a bunch of stencils first!
Don't try to make music that moves people, make a bunch of commercial jingles first!
You'll gain a lot of skills and network with other artists! 💯

I couldn't find a Godot 4 screen reader/TTS implementation that worked right. So even though I've only had Godot a week or so, I made my own using Tolk/c#! So now I have the ability to make games blind accessible!

Did you know that if you don't specify the inherited class Godot will use a RefCounted?
If you want the most basic object, you need to use extends from Object.
An Object needs to be manually freed with instance.free().
