Slowly reintegrating things from when I rebuilt the player controller.

Next I think will be getting simple camera shake in then back to getting elements working (which is not pictured here because it is literally just different omni lights and damage amounts atm)

Alright FFXIVsky, do we like AU Timelost Alisaie Shard better as an Elezen or a Lalafel

#ffxiv #ffxivgpose #alisaie #ffxivscreenshots
An elezen from Final Fantasy 14 sits on a green hill with a white building behind her. She's wearing a red top and white pants with teal tech accents and has red gloves. She has white hair pulled back except for some bangs over her blue eyes and is looking out past the camera. A lalafel from Final Fantasy 14 stands with her arms cross against an out of focus brown rock back ground. She's wearing a red top and white pants with teal tech accents. She has white hair pulled back except for bangs over her blue eyes and the top of a futuristic white staff can be seen over her shoulder.

When I am not sword fighting, fighting with code or in despair, I play ffxiv!

This is Alisaesae Alisae, a time lost shard of Alisaie Leveilleur who's been shunted to the Source due to a time spell gone wrong.

#ffxiv #gposers #lalafell
A lalafell from ffxiv smiles at the camera winking her right eye and holding a peace sign over her left eye. she has white hair pulled back from her face and blue eyes, and is wearing solution nine gear in red and white, with a white staff mostly blocked behind her back,

ICE is floating around Disneyland and Downtown Disney because of course they are.

Today has been hard. Here are my kitties.
A black cat with a soft white spot on her chest is standing on a blue couch. She looks mildly annoyed, with slight airplane ears and narrowed eyes. This Freya. A mostly white fluffy cat with darker gray face markings covering his eyes and ears stands on a white carpet, looking downwards. This is Octavian von Fluffybutt, aka Tavi

This week's progress! I did some refactoring and now we have the ability to dash! I am going to keep it so that you can dash while in the air or on the ground, because I think it feels nice when I test it.

We now have damage volumes and death volumes! I rewrote the way I was doing damage and health in order to make it easier to use.

I'm not at GDC and late to this even but hello I am a 30+ gender queer indie dev who works in C# and Godot!

When you have no UI currently and can't just expose variables to the sun to watch 'em change in the inspector

You get creative with debug statements

I... this doesn't look comfortable, I'll be honest. I don't quite know what I did to get the idle anim to break like this lol My child, please don't hurt yourself.

Green and white dragon seen from above and behind in a three quarters view, where one wing is trying to slice into it's butt, and the other is both stretched out and bound up at the same time.

is this happening to anyone else or is my internet being dumb?

Okay dragon is in godot, and I have some basic folder structure working now. The cube is for scale so I think I'll be shrinking the character down by a sizable chunk.

My brain is now rebelling so I'ma go play more Veilguard until it calms down.

I am making a small dragon game reminiscent of Spyro currently called ScalePact! Been working on it on and off for the last few months, but going into 2025 I'll be working on it full tilt! Hopefully haha

4. Spyro Enter the Dragonfly - The first Spyro game I really played and it's stuck with me. I'd only played the original three briefly at a friends house, so being able to play a Dragon Game!! was great! Loved all the breath abilities and NPCs.

3. Skyrim, specifically the LoTD mod list - I also play a very, -very- modded Skyrim and have sunk over 1000 hours in over the last several years. The modding community is amazing, and there's something about filling a museum with all these unique items that makes the ADHD go burr

2. Stardew Valley - I play a very, very modded SDV but it's always been what I really wanted out of the Harvest Moon games. It's cozy, it's low stakes - especially with my mod list - and there is genuinely something calming about playing it.
The title Stardew Valley sits in the sky over a chicken coop, trees and a mine cart, with a farmer on a horse on the left and a farmer holding a piece of corn on the right.

1. Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess - My all time favorite Zelda game for a variety of reasons. Midna is one of the best companions from a story and character perspective, and the game play and dungeons are very well done.

Love me my gremlin child.

It feels kinda zelda but I don't hate it actually.
We'll see if, when I block this out, my opinion of it stays the same

These are my kitties, by the way:

Tavi - Purebreed ragdoll boy, very fluff, very zoom, VERY companion cat

Freya - Black siamese mix, very demure not very mindful, always wants cheese and to sit on your chest at inopportune times
a white fluffy cat also know as a ragdoll lays on his back on a white carpet, with his little feets curled up, and a pair of hiking shoes behind him A black cat with yellow eyes in front of a keyboard with purple backlighting, looking very demure, very mindful
