I don't have enough followers, so now I'm playing my game with the voices in my head

What's Mutex?

Is a lock that controls access across threads, like if you got a rubber duck,then you can speak.
In online games you need it to sync steps like “create game”→“let players join”

Here is demo of spinning up a private match and 12 players joining

You fear race conditions? Don't work on an online game
Had to optimize item drops because the server was spawning and acknowledging detection with the player to pick them before all the clients even spawned them.

Added also some subtle shiny shader on them

After some feedback, added a new way to select items
- short press: quick switch
- long press: ring menu!

Making item selections in online fast-paced battles is always clunky. Any suggestion? 👀

We did the first online test!
And found a silly bug: one can invoke chickens for everyone else 😝

If you played 2D Zelda games, what is the most nostalgic memory you have?

For me, it was minecarts in dungeons, stealing in the shop, and world map exploration in general. Also changing from past to present.

I will bring those memories into my game.
