been working on a new shader. i really enjoy generating space backdrops

pop quiz: what order do the lines execute in?

#csharp #gamedev #indiedev #dotnet

if you’re also at #opensauce in San Francisco this weekend, come say hi!

#godot #gamedev #indiedev

looking back at the last few years and feeling happy about the open source projects I released, friends I’ve made, the chickensoft community, and all the support I got along the way 🥰

I made those tools while working on game projects that are now abandoned. Surely this next idea will be the one…

stylized night sky shader i've been poking at...might be cooking up an actual game project who knows 🙈🫣 #godot #gamedev #indiedev

Here's the generated class diagram for the Chickensoft Game Demo!

👩‍🔬 QA lab with an HD, QHD, 3K, and 4K screen I’ve had going the last few weeks while I figure out display scaling in #godot on multi-monitor macOS and Windows setups. happy to announce that I think I’ve got it figured out now — blogs and utils to follow

global game jam 2025! i did a bit of the technical art and some odds and ends, but most of the work was done by my team. amazing art by @sailorloon.bsky.social

hard mode: rendering procedural planets in 2D without using godot's 3D capabilities 😰

i'd like to thank chatgpt once again for helping me with math

forgot to post this the other day, but I only used Linux for a few days before I chickened out and went crawling back to my Mac 🙈 Gnome and Wayland just aren’t ready for fractional scaling with the apps I use, or at least they weren’t in the distro I was using

🐧 (finally) switching to #linux for #gamedev

🤯 The bounty for adding web export to #godot for #csharp projects is now >$1,000 USD

Just posting casually to #gamedev and #dotnet in case anyone passing through has the skill to work around the MS WASM side loading blockers 🙏

Huge thank you to @heytibo.bsky.social for creating the Chickensoft mascot as a playable 3D character! Tibo is a total professional, has surprisingly fast turnaround times, and is an absolute pleasure to work with. Chicken is CC BY 4.0 and animations are CC0. #godot #gamedev #indiedev

🤑 someone started a bounty on #godot c# web exports and I am pitching in too. hoping to help fund the motivation of a workaround to get something working in the meantime since MS is dragging their feet on side-loading WASM stuff

🐠 ➡️ 🐟throwback to that one time i tried to make a 2d fishing game back in the #godot 3 era. i thought it would be cool if you could breed fish and create variations based on morphs. turns out that's really hard

#indiedev #gamedev

we always talk about separating game logic from visualization. here's how i like to think of the different architecture layers in a game #gamedev #Indiedev #godot

another somewhat tongue-in-cheek diagram about evaluating the usefulness of a particular software architecture. i still believe that most good architectures are only going to be strongly coupled in a directed acyclic sort of way, though (i.e., strict layered architecture) #gamedev #indiedev #godot

this is my spoof of a chart from Martin Fowler's article on high quality software, based on my lived experience with software architecture and #gamedev / #indiedev i always die inside a little when i realize i'm at the point of intersection 🥲
