Thank you!

1. I don't want it to appear in the task bar
2. handling transparency and clickthrough is not possible in stock Godot in the way I needed it

I always knew that you are man of good taste 😺

Thanks for the offer! At the moment I am not looking into other platforms - but Mac would definitely be interesting.

If the sales are good enough to put a Mac port in the "remotely makes sense" territory I will reach out if it is ok 🧡

I just released my second Steam game.
Feels really amazing! 🥳

I'm using Godot for quite a while now, but I am still suprised and happy about how adaptive it is. For MeltyFlow I used a custom build and a GDExtension and the flexibility is just 👌

Thanks a lot! The feedback really helped🤝

Thanks again for the feedback! 💪🤝

@yalpdulo.bsky.social @hsvfan-jan.bsky.social @akien.bsky.social Thanks for the great feedback on the first version - here is a version with a couple scenes swapped. I think it really improved it!

#GodotEngine #Desktop #AeroFrutiger

Thanks, that's a great idea 💪

Thanks! I'll add that in the next version!

Thanks! I'll record a new trailer and add that 👍

Thanks for the great feedback!

Haha, you speak my mind!

Yes, exactly! This is kind of a debug view. I use the temperature/color in the shader for different things.

Thanks for the feedback! Helps to hear this!

What do you think of this trailer? Do you grasp what this is or do I need to redo some parts?

It is a customizeable lava lamp for the desktop that you can also click to interact a bit (like a fidget toy). Is this what you would get out of this trailer?

#Godot #GodotEngine

No sorry, some of the features make it windows only (for now). If the reception will be very good I will consider doing Mac and Linux versions 👍

Lol... Meatballs

Damn now I'm hungry

It's not a 'typical' meatball implementation, but that doesn't matter too much in this case.

It's hard to simulate a real lava lamp perfectly as this would keep a CPU quite busy.

It can happen in my simulation that chunks of particles collide and create "ripples", but it doesn't happen often.

Thanks 🧡

Who doesn't like a lava lamp on the desktop that you can click from time to time?

It's really chill and I already can't imagine going back to the old boring life without it 😁

Of course made in #GodotEngine! A wishlist and sharing this post would be nice 🧡

Thanks for the nice words! I definitely consider it a lot of times!

That sounds like a fun idea!

Thanks for the nice words! Yes, everything but a few lines of shader code were done by me - I looked up some open source shaders to modify for the screen space effect.

There can't be enough of them!

I used to make tutorials, but it's soooo much work. I rather make games 😅

Thank you so much!

Hehe, I like that!

Duuuude 😍
