Okay, ACTUALLY final Shiv (murischief.itch.io/shiv) post.
Simplicity Jam has wrapped up, and Shiv got 3rd place (in a tight race, too!) Glad the game was so well received by so many, and keep posted for my next project!

Last Shiv post for a while, I swear, maybe.
Got to 100 plays in-browser today, so I made a little short! Huge thanks to everyone who's played!

Not a Shiv post this time (but also play Shiv [ murischief.itch.io/shiv ])
Working on a turn-based #RPG system in #Godot, and started with a modular ability system. Essentially, the top-level script can run over the tree and "compute" the effect of the skill. I think it's neat!

Woke up to find out that Shiv (murischief.itch.io/shiv) has had 50 browser plays since its release yesterday, wow!
Thank you so much to everyone who's played or left a comment! Now to figure out what I'm doing next...

Oh yeah, as a fun bonus, I added two extra palettes to the final release for Shiv (try them yourself @ murischief.itch.io/shiv). Might add more later, struggling to find an orange palette that I like.

Day 9: The Finale(ish)
Finally finished levels 4 and 5, bugfixed the hell out of web, and I'm basically ready to launch! It's hard to believe it's only been a week since I started this, and I'm super excited to share it! (after more testing)

Day 8 of my stealth #indiegame Shiv.
Today was mostly a day of rest, though I did spend a good amount of it getting web builds to work properly. Note to self: check which features are web-compatible *before* building your game around them 🙃

Day 7 of my stealth #indiegame Shiv.
Still working on level 4, but today was mostly spent on integrating playtester (read: beloved friends I roped in) feedback. Biggest thing was the detection meter, which I think has a really fun look!

Day 5 of my stealthy jam game Shiv.
Did some proper balancing for level 1, made level 2 (implementing the lockpicking mechanic from yesterday), and made a new enemy for level 3 (more on that tomorrow). For now, enjoy the new fancy main menu!

Okay, maybe one more Shiv update.
Today I've added lockpicking into the mix! These doors *can* be opened, but only by making a ton of noise, which might get you in a bit of trouble. That's essentially the last mechanic I needed to add, so it's all level design from here!

Day 4 of my stealthy jam game Shiv.
Nothing flashy today, mostly grappling with Godot web exports for itch (bad). As far as actual features, there's now a proper tutorial level, as well as a journal feature to give instruction and hints. Bonus touch of polish: torches now dim when enemies are near!

Day 3 (just barely!) of working on my stealthy jam game Shiv.
Today was a split between the fun cosmetic stuff (namely palette swapping and the new death animation!), and the practical (prototyping the first level). 6 days left, but I think it's looking promising!

Day 2 of working on my stealthy jam game Shiv.
Here I'm showing off my invisible guard enemy. Kinda tough to stab a back you can't see! Also made some good progress with navigation, setting up the gridmap, the new UI, and a whole bespoke intro cutscene (not pictured)

Working on my stealth game Shiv for Simplicity Jam (a touch late, whoops!).
Day 1: Got the dithering shader working for general aesthetic. Planning to have palette swapping available in the final game, but I think this is enough to work with to get the functional bits done. #gamedev #pixelart (?)

Interesting experiment on using ChatGPT for game design. You can see what appears to be copyright infringement, and some generic design.
It's my experience that LLMs are only good for boilerplate, and it's failed when for anything more interesting.

chatGPT vs. D&D game design
Can ChatGPT generate D&D rules? As D&D freelancer, that question is top of mind these days. Not “can ChatGPT generate better rules than a good game designer?” I think the answer…
