Spruce Goose is annoyed that my laptop is on my lap when it should be solely dedicated to her. Also (the) Gnorp Analogue is very fun if you like idle / incremental games. #cats #incrementalgames #indiegames #felinediplomacy

Trying out Tang Garden for the first time. #boardgames fun tile placement+ with a lot going on.

SFXR is a really fun free tool for creating simple sounds effects for games and #Godot has two SFXR plugins! Its files can be used like any other audio format. Has both presets and dials to turn, so it's easy to explore and tweak. Below is the gdsfxr panel.

With #math, you can do anything! Like ... make walls bleed? Everything, incl. bricks, is with #shaders in #godot. It may be obvious that the 3D is fake -- I'm actually more proud of the vertex shader on the side walls.
I wasn't even making a horror game. This just happened.

How far can #shaders get me without artistic skill? At least to this beat up old shop!
Wood grain shader credit Yui Kinomoto, who I think is @arlez80.bsky.social
Everything else is a Polygon2D, some with noise. Is this a good starting point for a game's visual style?

Just found out that Godot4 has a very convenient "@export_tool_button" annotation to easily add trigger a function from a node's inspector in the editor. Very nice!

I've been exploring drawing flowers and plants with just code in Godot.
This little one shows what you can get by setting the points of Path2D onto Polygon2D (and translating that to UV coords) and Line2D and putting a few shaders on it.

Very excited about the arrival of #Clank! Legacy Acquisitions Incorporated 2: Darkest Magic. The first Clank! legacy is one of the best legacy #boardgames I've played. The writing and mechanics come together to really elevate the base clank game to something special.

Oh, nice! Mine has each star made by joining four radial gradient textures with a script that runs a tween to animate them. It's probably a weird approach.

Continuing to explore L-system plants in #Godot. Found a lovely wood grain shader on godotshaders.org.
One of the nice things about L-systems is that the fractal iteration does a nice job of simulating the growth over time, too. With a little extra tweaking the scale it'll work nicely.

Homemade baguettes using a modified 5 minute baguette recipe. Mix the dough in the morning. Come home from work, shape and proof before going in the oven. Consistency can use some work, but looking tasty. #bread

Cascadia Rolling Rivers is surprisingly elegant. A lot going on with few components. #boardgamesky

Very excited about trying both of these. Love the idea of a flip-and-roll-and-write!
