Something a little different - a mini devlog about a recent, if a little gross, addition to my game!

First pass texturing this cute lil' guy!

He latches onto wrecked ships, reactivating them with his 'glowy bits'.

Not much to share this week as I'm focusing on Steam multiplayer...

But, to other devs who might need to hear this;

What we're doing takes a lot of focus, discipline and resilience. Be proud of what you've done and trust you can keep pushing on.

Can anyone #help ?

Major roadblock in #godotsteam, using the extension with SteamMultiplayerPeer.

The signals 'lobby_created' and 'lobby_match_list' aren't firing and they contain some key info.

Seems like an open issue on github but I'm a noob so unsure.

Anyone know what's going on?

"Just make it good first, you can make it 3D later."

This is how it works, right?!
(Also those explosions will get updated soon, I promise!)

Can any #godot GUT users #help me?

Trying to learn to unit test but when I click run all in the GUT tab (running a test script like the example) all my @onready node references in autoloads are null.

The game runs fine normally, but not when I'm running a #GUT test.
What am I missing? 😅
