I'm starting to get lost in my own code. I think it's time to start breaking effects like this pop label out into their own scenes and instantiating where needed. I think I've got that figured out in my happy little test world. Everything is even centered! *shakes fist* #godot #solodev #learning

#pixelart banana for sale. Only $6.2 million obo. No, you're a comedian.

I was messing with particle effects today and then pushed a web build. Turns out browsers do not like GPUParticles2D with trails. So I got to make another particle with CPUParticles2D sans trails. #godot #solodev #learning

And hey! I've got a name. It's Trash Panda Letter Looter.

I'm still working hard! Reduced the grid size to 8x8 so game can end, paid a little attention to art, started working on an itch.io project page. Now working on game, settings and credits menus. Oct 1 is still the goal for "initial completion" and then playtesters. #godot #solodev #learning

Practicing #pixelart today. Hey buddy.

Untitled dictionary game progress continues! Audio track and sfx added. Plus a little friend to watch you play. Words are checked against dictionary and removed. Remaining tiles cascade. That was tricky!

Moving tiles with ghost tile. Input feels nice. Tiles return letters once placed. #godot #solodev #learning

Here's another tile-based board game I've been working on. It's called Cannon and the original game was created by a friend of mine at the turn of the century. I put it aside after I had the grid figured out, but will return after I learn more about A* and search graphs

Progress always feels good. Clicking board area works as input now, grabbing game tile or dropping to bottom. Pieces are generated according to English letter distribution. I've got a dictionary loaded. This could be a game in the near future. #godot #solodev

Untitled dictionary game... first steps. So much to learn!
