QA Engineer by boring day, Aspiring/Hobbyist Game Developer by exciting night. Lover of prototypes, I'll finish something one day. #godot is my current engine of choice.
Trying out some more theming for UI stuff in #godot
Trying to emulate the old AD&D Stone UI look from the original Baldur's Gate 1 (Not EE). I'm starting to see a resemblance.
Let me know what you think!

Did more decluttering, and scaling on my Unit/Inventory Screen. So far I'm happy with the way it scales. at 720p/1080p.
Need to try at home for 1440p.

I really enjoyed my inventory prototype. Godot's Drag and Drop api made it a breeze.
Used BitField shenanigans. No dedicated slots for each body part, just assigning which body part can go into the slot. Make 1H/2H/Shields easier to manage.

Finally, I buckled and signed up for a different front end for Bluesky after my State was blocked.
Either way, today is a good day so we'll share some fun videos of Prototypes.

As a headsup for anyone using @passivestar.bsky.social 's Minimal Theme for Godot. You can add back in the Tree Control's Parent/Child Releationship Line pretty easily with a Text Editor.

It's an honor to announce, that I had a chance to help SisCalypsis work on their latest #zeldalike Dungeon Asset Pack! It's certainly inspired me to do some more mechanics in #godot!

Cleaned up my Spell Creator so far, and added (De)Serialization for spells to JSON, so you can share spells created with friends easier.
Still a lot of work needs to be done, but it's progress!

In all the years I've used #godot, it wasn't till today that I realized it doesn't have a press and hold button Control node.
That or I missed something. Guess I'll make my own.

For all the #vscode #godot Users. I recently found out one of my favorite extensions (Godot Files) has an Itch page.
I cannot recommend this extension enough when you have to look through .tscn files!
They're also looking for donations, and deserve to be boosted.

#godot Tip! You can change the Text Editor Colors. Both Manually, and Import them from File!
I use a lot of Languages at my job that isn't GDScript, I tend to prefer VS Code's Default Dark Theme Colors. It's not fully 1:1, but it's pretty close.
Get the Theme Here:

If you haven't already seen, #godot 4.5 is getting more SVG support.
Was able to load the entire game-icons.net catalogue in less than 2s. While dropping 25ish mb of storage space.
There does seem to be some delay on drawing though. I'll take it though!

A big game changer was makeing a generic stat class to handle mathing modifiers and adjustments. (Vitality to Max HP, etc)
Which naturally leads into an equipment system...then items to grant stats...it never ends.
Functionally it works! Pretty it's not. :)

Alrighty, show off time. I took some time from my primary project to work a little bit on my own personal project.
It's amazing what you can learn in a year, and how much better you get with practice.

Okay, the goal for the next month is to post more on Bluesky.
Obviously mostly #godot related. Been making big strides in both major and side projects.

Oh might as well show some visuals.
Ended up using a ShapeCast3D for melee weapons, and saving preset shapes for different melee weapons.
This is example of a "wide arc" where you have a massive cleave area. I also have a generic slash, and stabbing ones too.

Changed the accent color to pink, and kept the JetBrains Mono Font though. :)
