Ocean water shader
+ Added caustics to the ocean floor and used the second uv channel to add a mask for where the waves meet the shore to make them brighter. 🌊
I think it's finished now

Vibin' out to my new ocean water shader 🏖️

Made a new water shader based on the water from Super Mario Sunshine/Galaxy. It's still crazy to me that this is all just based on a couple of noise textures, no lighting or anything.

My game needed a safe, low stress environment to teach the basic mechanics, so I created a little tutorial island

Finally added some particles and sound effects. Even just minimal stuff such as this makes astronomical returns in gameplay feel.

I added the ability to jump out of a roll (in a 0.2 sec time frame) for extra height. Not sure if there will be much of a use case considering Chakram jumping gives far more height, but at least you don't have to put the Chakram down first, maybe this is something speedrunners can use to min max

Cooking up some animations for my boi. I'm not a pro but I'm pretty happy so far

Dynamic tail test
Godot 4.4 is absolutely goated for this.

Still working on collision, but it's so fun to just wiggle about and surprisingly easy to implement.
