I think its about time I figured out how those fancy new geometry nodes work.

After getting through the basics I've got a 9-slice style deform for scaled cubes.

Updated the visuals for when you have curse to show both forms of the player model using the voxelized effect for the seam.

This feels so wrong but it is mentioned in the docs. In order to blend the shoot animation onto my run animations I need to cancel out the starting pose.

And to do this you don't use the "subtract" node, you use and "add" node with a value of -1

More expansions to my particle system for Iron Siren. I'm trying to generalize the effects that used custom shaders into one big shared configurable shader. Here the grow property is interpolated by a curve, and the color is as well, but offset by the facing angle.

New rig is coming together.
The LookAtModifier Node in Godot only respects bones that are a "true parent" and ignores any relationships bound by the child_of bone constraint.

There doesn't seem to be a way to fix the inverted rotation so I guess I'll invert the target in code.

Sorry I haven't posted in a bit, I've been stuck in the bone maze again.

Idk how the code I changed turned the enemies into money rockets, but it sure is happening.

And now the new map menu is actually in-game. It shows up between levels after the crafting screen.

Currently all that really changes per-level are the biomes (tile art, enemy/element spawns), and the depth level (loot rarity).

Now interactive, as you progress down the route nodes that are no longer unreachable will be greyed out.

Each node also has biome information for the level it contains.

Working on a new map system for IronSiren, previously it just giving you a selection of seeds for the next level.

Now it generates the entire set of levels and their connections at the start of a loop. The player will see this so they can make some long term route planning.

Finally got around to fixing the electrical arc weapons
All hail the big shocky

Working on some improvements to my in-game particle editor.
They aren't "real godot particles" but instead specially specially flagged pooled projectiles.

This allows me to do some stuff that godot particles can't. Like full 3 axis tumbles, force interactions, and not stutter.

Ah yes, the gifs.
There appears to be some invisible filesize limit, as the 36mb 256color version didn't seem to work.

Anyway, nothing to see here, just normal perf testing with my collection of 2048 spiders.

Got a massive influx of followers today, so hello!
Enjoy this clip of me crashing the game with a run well into the deeply unbalanced endgame.

Testing a new special for the knight character in IronSiren. Now they spend an elemental shard to form some armor. After a few seconds the armor breaks releasing projectiles depending on how much damage was absorbed.

Sounds/VFX are temp.

New enemy in the mines of IronSiren.
They mine now, the walls are no longer safe.
