Why did I never realize that you can create a Button node as a child of a Node2D and have it work completely fine for dragging?? 🤩

Also had to pull out the dampened springs for testing, and it didn't disappoint.

Hmm, I think I made the heavy attack for the knight a bit *too* heavy!

Alternate minigame idea: Orc shuffleboard? 🧌

Got the basic character attacks and state machine implemented! Now to actually create something for the players to attack 😈

🛩️ V1 of the airplane controller for a new game prototype! The goal was a semi-realistic flight model that still has an 'arcade-y' feel.

I'm really looking forward to working on this game, so expect more to come!

This week I worked on adding a day changer and scene switcher to a little adventure game prototype I'm starting. It's really nice how easy it is to change scenes in Godot 4 (literally a single line of code 😍)

Got a nice dynamic skybox working in #godotengine this weekend thanks to an awesome tutorial by @kelvinvanhoorn.com!

Super excited to get this system fully fleshed out and integrated

The task this past week was implementing the ship stats system! It took a bit of thought, but the new system will make it super easy to apply parts to the players' ship.

As a test of the system, I added energy usage when mining with the laser (refilled with an energy cell)🔋

Happy New Year everyone! 🥳 I hope everyone had a relaxing holiday season.

With the time I was able to get stuff done over my break, I added the basic shop UI! The goal is to have this accessible from dockable space stations to sell your ores and upgrade your ship.

Worked on adding some pickup text (setup for translations) this week and adding some player feedback when a tile is broken. Also got a mockup of a HUD UI in, but nothing is functional yet.

Can't quite put my finger on it, but something seems like it's not right... 🤔

Was messing around with some marching squares and a distance curve and accidentally made some cool patterns! Maybe I'll turn this into something someday.. 🤔

After the addition of a final construct, we *finally* have automated harvesting! This will probably be the players first introduction to the automation, with the ability to automate replanting and watering being introduced with the bots unlocked later on.

Holy cow there's a lot of new people!

Howdy, I'm Ethan!👋 I make indie games and such in the #godotengine and occasionally partake in some art and music creation 😁

I released my first commercial project Wander Vyrosa on Steam in 2023 (below)

Got a (very basic) market UI working! Players can now sell the crops they grow and purchase new ones! Also dug up a 2D spring library I created to add a bit of juice to the item hovers 😎

Decided to take a small detour from the main feature development to add in smoothed conveyor item movement!

Done completely using pooled tweens in #godotengine !
