Gates of Hell

Gates of Hell

#UK, #France and #Germany are on their way to the fight to help #Israel. The question is, do they really want to take it there?

If you start killing enough #Muslims, the sectarians will put their differences aside and the two billion strong sleeping giant will wake up from its slumber... then what?

I used an Android phone and the Chrome browser, but it shouldn't really matter what phone.

I doubt it's the browser, as these kind of problems are almost exclusively on Firefox (in my experience).

Users have complained about this EXACT problem before when it comes to Itch, so I dunno...

There's no 'Godot Tomorrow'

No funky intro beat

No Emilio

No vague answers to every question

Just an empty void

The wait continues

Life can be so cruel

Someone asked Emilio about it during the latest episode of 'Godot Tomorrow' πŸ‘‡πŸΎ

I tagged him on Bluesky and asked the same question a few weeks back. I got radio silence in return. That's when I knew... πŸ˜•

You can get internet access on your PC via 'USB tethering' using the older phone and cable.

I had a feeling assets from the Godot Asset Library weren't going to be automatically imported into the Godot Asset Store.

I understand why they're
doing this, BUT, there's a lot of potential for things to get messy.

I hope @godotengine.org doesn't f*ck this up! πŸ™πŸΎπŸ˜‚

There's a way to use an external code editor with #Godot on #Android ft. syntax highlighting, completion, etc...

But if you want to know how, I'm going to need £100,000 in cash... in a briefcase... delivered in an underground carpark... trench coat and hat... 80's style! 😎🀣

The person meant via WiFi. You can synchronise your files across all your devices without needing to zip them (it's not slooooow like Bluetooth). Syncthing is available for desktop and mobile.

In the Google Play Store/F-Droid, search for 'Syncthing-Fork'. πŸ‘πŸΎ

β€’ You can backup your data and install Linux. Again, Godot 4.4.1 is the last version you can install due minimum hardware requirements introduced in Godot 4.5. Your old, dual-core CPU doesn't support SSE 4.2+

β€’ Use an external editor on Android... that's an EXCLUSIVE reveal though, so, I dunno! πŸ€«πŸ˜πŸ˜‚

β€’ You can synchronise your files and/or folders via WiFi with a cross-platform app like Syncthing. There's many other FOSS options.

β€’ You can upgrade your OS to Win10 (it will run on your PC). Then, you'll be able to install up to Godot 4.4.1. If you can't 'acquire' it, I can help you with that.

Okay, I'm not gonna make assumptions about your IT skills or home setup, so you'll have to forgive me if I say anything that may seem obvious:

β€’ If your PC has WiFi or an Ethernet connection, you can move files by running a local web server from your PC or phone. Use an app if you don't know how...

Don't give up so easily...

I remember seeing your posts a while back. You're stuck on Godot 4.1, right? Why?

What is your hardware and software setup? I just need to know your CPU, GPU, RAM and operating system.

Also, what mobile do you have, and what version of Godot is installed on it?

Yes, C++ extensions and scripting is available via GDExtension. I would suggest you take a look at Projekt J.E.N.O.V.A, which offers up-to-date, fully-featured C++ scripting in Godot.

Yes, you can also use libgodot for rendering.

Good luck with your projects! πŸ‘πŸΎ

You can use both GDScript and C# in the same project, but can't export to web if you use C#, unless you use Godot 3.

GDScript advantages:
β€’ Fast prototyping
β€’ Better integration
β€’ More tutorials
β€’ Better docs
β€’ Web export

C# advantages:
β€’ Computational performance
β€’ Vast array of C# libraries

No love for chihuahuas! πŸ˜†

As for artwork, fair enough. If I'm being honest, I would also revaluate the background colour. Gina, that white has got to go! πŸ˜‚ At the very least, use an off-white colour to save the player's eyes from permanent damage! 🀣

Try using symmetry tools for the cog and bottle.

I think you posted this video as a distraction so we wouldn't notice that your ultra cute doggo has been missing-in-action from the last few videos. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

How is the new artwork going? What's wrong with the old artwork apart from from the wonky cog?

Yeah, I've seen the 'jiggle' technique used before. It definitely works and is a great addition to your game! πŸ‘πŸΎ

As for why there are so many tutorials nowadays, I think you have to take into consideration that games are far more complex than they used to be.

Bluesky Logo

Bluesky Logo

Most of the apps in the #ATmosphere are destined to fail for three reasons:

1. The lack of differentiation and innovation. It's just #Bluesky repackaged.

2. If the user is already on Bluesky, there's no incentive to use these apps (unless they prefer the format).

3. Back-end reliance on Bluesky.

#UpScrolled is registered in Australia. Clearly, millions of people didn't do their homework.

Some of the devs who made alternatives to #TikTok should have seized the moment by pointing out why migrating to that platform is a TERRIBLE idea.
