Like most of the things I make, it started with a pun screaming to be embodied, so here's a real trailer for my fake game "Crazy Taxidermy Racer".

#gamedev #unreal #butrealish

@kenney.bsky.social published some minigolf assets, and while my prototype is doing them no favours, it did bring up an interesting dilemma.

I'm using a generic in-game tile placer.

Being generic, it doesn't know about types of tiles. So on subsequent shots, how do you know where to aim next?

There's nothing original about it, because I'm just implementing mechanics for a library of gameplay things I need, and learning new #gamedev things I've never gotten a chance to do, like using FMOD Studio for the first time.

Did you know this song was called "Entrance of the Gladiators"?

It's always so great wanting to prototype something and then someone (usually @kenney.bsky.social) releases assets that let you instantly try it out.

While not perfect, "Prefab Painter 2" is free and very handy for scattering random prefabs on a surface, too.
