The John Wilkes Recording Booth

The John Wilkes Recording Booth

I call my game voiceover recording setup the "The John Wilkes Recording Booth".
Because I'd rather be shot by an actor than record another 20 lines in a row with my current pipeline.

Any links out there? Process for batch recording + applying post + export (ideally FOSS 👀)

QBASIC was actually an upgrade after getting my initial BASIC knowledge on my "VTech Lerncomputer" 😭

YouTube video by Shrouded Suns Commanding Your Squadron - SHROUDED SUNS

If you didn't meet the over-caffeinated guy with the space game around #GodotFest, or you could not see the action, because he wisely chose a dark nebula for the demo: here is a video showing off the Quick Command System.

That should absolutely work for fully pausing a node! I currently have a snippet of code at the start of my _physics_process and mess with the Engine.time_scale, because I want to also use the system for slow-motion - buuut that part does not work 😂 So let me come back to you with that snippet later

Shrouded Suns on Steam In the midst of a seemingly hopeless war among the stars, take control of highly customizable spacefighters to experience classic space combat action throughout a story-driven campaign.

Thanks a lot!

Game's name is 'Shrouded Suns'

"Coming Soon" - with the quotation marks doing some heavy lifting

@smitner.studio Hey hey, is this full, can I still come in? That would be lovely! It is cold outside and I have been working on a game in Godot for a year now ❤️

Same! Trying to find music on YouTube that wasn't "made" by a guy threatening an LLM nowadays is hard

Would be great to get a spot here! Located in Bielefeld and building a game in Godot!

Thanks a lot ❤️ Never gonna be mad about that comparison!
Trying to channel Freespace 2 with it's mission based gameplay and mysterious atmosphere a bit more than Freelancer's open world.
But keeping it a bit more accessible 🤞

Spaaaace Games?! Does mine still fit on the list? Would be great! Being made in Germany and in Godot. Cheers!

There is a vibe coder sitting across the isle from me in the train and the Internet went out.

He just sat there for minutes. Doing nothing. Waiting for an answer that never came.

I get it. I too used to be religious.

Shout-outs in trains: @kosro.de for being amazing at #GodotFest and answering my random question about an issue I had with volumetrics with "ah, I know what could be the problem, have you ever edited the engine code? I'll show you" and just going to town on his laptop 🔥💻🔥

Thanks Deutsche Bahn, for once again doubling my travel time to what will have been (best case) 12 hours when I arrive at home. Wow. So cool.
And shout-out to @baumlos.dev for being great company in one of the trains so would not lose my mind!

Gamedev together strong 🐵🐵🐵

Used the train ride to #GodotFest to build a silly little #Godot EditorPlugin ^^

Couldn't use the built-in physics system, as turning it on in the Editor makes everything fall 😅

What felt like the biggest compliment at #GodotFest was being asked how much I doctor my screenshots :D
I myself think the game looks way better in motion.
My only trick is I made a button/script to pause gameplay without locking the camera. That way I get a janky photo mode, but I don't even use it

Thanks to everyone at GodotFest for being yourselves! I had a lot of fun and it was exciting getting to meet everyone and feel a part of the community!

GodotFest turned out to be too short actually. Man. Greatest community ever.

SHAMELESS PLUG because apparently my first post ever that mildly takes off is just a condensed quote to warn people about a security exploit.

be safe out there, but also, maybe follow me and our studio @achtungautobahn.com ? ✨💗

we are making a historical horror game bsky.app/profile/acht...

I am bad at social media, but I should probably leave a post about "Shrouded Suns" here, the retro space combat action game I am developing in Godot!

You can check out the gameplay teaser here: youtu.be/i0hlZTimYC4?...
