We tried our hand at the @gamemakerstoolkit.com game jam along with @defaultsound.bsky.social and made Anadrome.

You are a marble stuck in an infinite loop.

Reveal a liminal frontier fraught with recursive puzzles

Took part in this year's GMTK Game Jam with 5 friends, two of which are from @item42.bsky.social We ended up making "Anadrome" defaultsound.itch.io/anadrome-gtm... Pretty happy with what we managed to achieve! #godotengine #godot #indiedev #gamedev #gmtk

Escape the loop. A marble finds its way through a forgotten city.

The DEFICIT demo has been updated with some big changes!

Oversight Officers now have a little more self-preservation in mind; they will block and strafe around you during melee combat - along with a bunch more!

Reminder, Isles Of Rain Demo is out! Here are some behind the scenes. I spent far too long on this Geometry Nodes system. Each Vertex places a pylon. Gives me full control of pylon placement and automatically adds the wires!

DEFICIT isn't just claustrophobic corridors: our imsim-like shooter opens up into a moonlit plateau of armoured buggies and vertical demolition.

It's between Method 3 or 5 for me personally.

DEFICIT is all about close-quarters, chunky melee combat. That just couldn't work without a hefty kick.

Please enjoy this kickpilation.

Some thoughts on the state of godot after staring at its repo for a year
Is it finally time to use godot?
Kinda. It depends. There’s no best engine. Some engines fit your needs well and some don’t. I don’t know what you’re trying to make. People have been making games in godot. It’s possible. But you’re h...

UE5 tech art tip 1.

You need a cool light gradient for that "off into the distance" effect.

Welcome to "Decal Gradients"!

Subtract Actor Pos from World Pos to anchor the effect to your Decal Actor.

Place the Decal, treat it like a volume. Voila - cheap lighting great with Lumen!
