#GodotEngine 4.5 wohoo!

Abstract Classes and Functions is the main favorite addition.

No more functions with a single Pass statement 🥹

With limited time recently have realized that my game
Slime Vial relies too much on a quantity of content.

Quantity that is not particularly interesting from a promotional aspect and still takes too much time.

So I am pausing it and pivoting 🔄

🔥 or ☠️

Experimenting with the Burn and Poison status effects

Yeah I understand you are not making some absolute statement, this is just casual replies so no worries 😁👍

But yeah I think there is some truth to it, like when people seek out research that supports their biases 🤔

Oh that is a cool thought!

Basically we never learn to believe something new, we discover more consciously what we already did believe 🤔

The trust people have to a tool that frequently hallucinates answers is honestly impressive.

It is concerning however when the trust is blind enough for an LLM answer to be steering or affecting their worldview like that. 🤔

Good for a laugh though 🤣

Major Bioshock vibes 🤩
Real cool stuff 😁👍

Yeah I know personally if a game has a "config" file or something in the first folder I am taking a peek 🤣

And then a slip of the finger to remove a curly bracket is not too far fetched 😬

Yeah I cannot really come up with anything other than for obfuscation.

To play devil's advocate however one could argue that adding that extra step is good so changing data in unintended ways is a more conscious choice from the player? 🤷

The slimes in my game are now able to get a Defensive Perm to block enemy attacks.

However, as always with hairstyles, the name is decieving and it only lasts a single round😔

Yeah if you go into your "Feeds" tab and scroll down you can pin a feed also called "Discover" but the tag is not "bluesky app" it is "skyfeed xyz"

I find that it way more accurately shares stuff I am interested in

Oh heck yeah!

Disabling and swapping out the default Discover feed to the skyfeed one just made my scrolling experience way better on here.

Too much US politics talk where I want to see game dev and art 😁

Ohhh kinda don't starvey 🤔

Seeing a lot of people at my local #GlobalGameJam using #GodotEngine! 💙

Same!!! Last year almost no one there knew about it and now half of our local entries were made with Godot 🤩💙

While our group made this game in Unity I was surprised to see half of people on our local site making entries using Godot this year 🤖 🤯

Only a few years back no one seemed to know about it

I am so happy to see more people use my favorite engine 😁

You Pop by Saltlight Studio, IrisHulsman, Aideen03, GårdagensBröd, Junice, OP-ossumGames Satisfying popping toy turned to a race against time

A popping toy meant for destress turning into a puzzling race against time. 😵‍💫

This weekend I participated in Global Game Jam together with some students of mine to make this game

"You Pop" 🫵

This weekend I'm helping to host the Global Game Jam in the north of #Sweden! It's set to be a super snowy one & through the support of Arctic Game, we're looking to have 100+ participants! So exciting :))

I will see you there Harry 👋

Last year when the theme was "Make me Laugh" the whole group I attended with had a ton of fun 😁

Greyscale Shader WITH modulate This is a somewhat simple shader for greyscaling sprites, except with modulate and self-modulate still working

thegodotbarn.com/contribution...

Ever sat there manually greyscaling your sprites cause you need to modulate them in Godot later?

Now you don't have to!

I made a simple shader for it over at @thegodotbarn.com

Dead Internet Theory gets more real each passing day 😔

Yeah apparently a lot of reworks are happening to get UIDs to work more painless.

I keep on seeing it in proposals and reports on the github 😌👍

Yeah noticed UIDs are very finnicky in 4.3 if you are working in that.

With version control I have noticed it overwrites and flip flops between what looks likr a path and a UID between different computers. 🤔
