Drawing tablet went down!
Took some pencil to paper to draw some concepts to test perspectives and character design!

Heading towards simpler shapes and better silhouettes.

The eyes are so impressive, I can never get them to clip just right like this with a fake 3D rig.

Art update in motion.

Line2D is the most underrated node in Godot.

Yesterday I spent an hour with my girlfriend teaching her how 3D model (using SketchUp), she made a lamp! So proud 🫠 You should all encourage her!

Took a break from the emergent dialogue system to play w/ character designs! Tried to transfer the mockup vision to faux 3D isometric characters..

Inspired by @heytibo.bsky.social tutorial on top-down 3D characters

Whenever I see games like this, the first thing I wonder is how they do the accuracy/scoring algorithm... but that's the magic. This looks great !

Today:
-> Defined the dialogue template for my dialogue data json
-> Made a couple editor scripts to help with workflow:
State creator and Dialogue Creator

I'll be using the editor scripts quite a bit, so I like to have fun with the gui...

Uh oh! Our Birds are getting smarter! I spent the day working on enemy AI behavior

The behavior is purely logic based right now. No Area2D or Raycasts. Every time the A-tick timer reaches 0, the bird takes scene information + its personality to compute 1 of 6 actions

Hey! my name is Jordan, but you can call me Hord! I am a Professional Baseball player challenging myself to finish a game this offseason. Sharing my progress daily!

Here's a snippet of the prototype inspired by the Pokemon Rangers Capture Styler mechanic. Our little bug cowboy wrangling a bird!
