Ever wanted to build a map, out of tiles? If only there was something in #Godot to help... Oh wait, there is! But using tilemaps properly can be tricky... luckily we have @jackiecodes.bsky.social speaking at #GodotFest to help!

after talking to some creators about how long form videos have taken a hit since mid august I've noticed on the youtube home screen that shorts take up way more space on the page I haven't actively noticed this change until the discuss arose. Youtube is changing, its sad to see.

It's Sunday, time to take inventory of what tasks were completed last week, refresh the tasks for the coming week and reflect again about the progress and pacing for my game.
At the end of august I created a September todo list roughly for each week so it's not too much work

It's super important to differentiate working on your game and planning your game.
I like to plan my game before every work session to make sure I'm always aligning with the goal.
Planning can also be separated into broach planning and narrow planning.

every year I become slightly more convinced all professional software needs customizable popup menus + accelerator keys
because only when you have instant access to all tools using software stops being such a chore and you can start playing with it like a kid

games should be categorized as meals and snacks, sometimes I don't want a full 70+ hour full course meal, I just wanna sit down for a 5 -15 min and just enjoy a nice lil snack....
