I'm making Sprytewood, a goblin farming sim/creature collector!
I use Godot, make pixelart and occasionally music

The reason I post not so much
I like working on it too much

This is a portrait of one of the playable characters. They get different reactions to things happening on the table.

Not sure if this is the character selection menu or just the main menu 🤔

We have 3 "weapons" already:

pew pew
ghost orb with funny physics
beautiful dot

A new VVvrm release: Praise the hidden Path!
My entry for the r/DungeonSynth october Shamble

vvvrm.bandcamp.com/album/praise...

It's fantasy/nature synth with some momentum.
I'm very happy how this turned out, hope you like it.

I'm so tired of AI

This is Robin Hobb about fanmail.

A Blogpost screenshot: But I end up feeling like a sucker when it really looks like something from a reader, and I send a note saying, 'Hey, thanks for the positive feedback, and letters like yours keep me writing,' etc. And the next day or in a few hours, I get an email back about how that reader is going to promote my books for me and help me reach a wider audience and so on. And I realize I've been suckered again.

Here's the last Sprytewood update before upgrading to godot 4.5.

Spoiler: It's prettier now 🥰
And technically we achieved Character costumization before moonstone island Ha! 😂You can now play as human, goblin or elf.

The Paradox of Passion Projects vs. Scam Hype: A Game Developer’s Dilemma Hey fellow Redditors and gaming enthusiasts, I’ve been pondering a question that’s as old as the internet itself: Why do scam projects seem to attract hordes of followers while genuine, heartfelt projects often struggle to get the spotlight? As a game developer, I’ve poured my soul into creating a game that’s not just another title on the shelf. Built on Web 3.0, it’s a game you can play directly in your browser, with assets that are as original as they come—crafted with love, sweat, and a sprinkle of sleepless nights. The game is free to play. Yes, you read that right. In a world where every click seems to have a price tag, I wanted to offer an oasis where fun doesn’t cost a dime. But here’s the twist: I’ve also created an NFT collection. Not to jump on the bandwagon, but to restore faith in what blockchain and NFTs can offer to gaming—integrity, uniqueness, and a seamless integration that enhances the experience. We’ve got a ‘play to earn’ section where strategy isn’t just a word—it’s the core of the battlefield. And while the NFTs aren’t mandatory, they do unlock new dimensions of gameplay with five different race characters, each bringing their own flair to the fray. Marketing on a shoestring budget is tough, especially when you’ve invested not just your savings but your heart into building something special. So, why make it free? Because I believe in the joy of gaming, and I want you to experience it without barriers. This isn’t just a game; it’s a piece of me. And I’m reaching out to this community because I know you appreciate the genuine effort. If you’re tired of the scams and crave something real, let’s start a conversation. Let’s talk about what makes a game worth your time, and maybe, just maybe, you’ll find that my game fits the bill. Looking forward to your thoughts and an honest discussion!

Oh that's interesting. I can see it, maybe because I commented? Idk

I'm doing lots of things that the player wouldn't notice. But I can show this bit of testing plant growth.
