Jet

thx for letting me be a part of this homie!

My work season picked up real quick all at once.

I make promotional graphics for some clients, race car stuff mainly. It's insane to me that I actually survive on this. Good to remind myself of that while I'm dreading that I can't play/make games all day for a while lol.

'If I could only listen to my heart' by Bruce Lee Band has been stuck in my head for at least 2 days, and I haven't heard this album in months if not longer.

Thats my brains way of saying I need more ska, and I'm gonna take him up on that.

Beat Final Fantasy 7 rebirth tonite, and had a realization. A sudden core memory unlocked.

The ending of Final Fantasy games is the reason I dread the endings of games.

What if they're gonna trap me in a 4 hour long boss fight with team wipe mechanics? Not fond of that design.

Scandalous

I totally meant to share the waterfall, Dark Souls 2 de-make side project.

You said pls, and also these are dogs.

just a heap of errors out of nowhere, and because my project is weird and idk what I'm doing well enough. I don't feel like it's totally the app's fault. I'd really like to blame the app tho because it makes me feel better. On the upside, I got a cool waterfall now.

I reimported a large blend file, and godot decided to import duplicates in almost every other blend file I have in other scenes. Luckily not the largest scene, but many of my props are just broken right now and idk why it even happened. I love this engine, but I'd strangle it rn if I could.

If it's not that, they're 50.1mb or they're 61 seconds. The feature is definitely a wip, but they'll get it there eventually.

~ end of year promo ~

Here it is, in all it's glory. We have some sounds, we have some doors. Basically done with this project already. Maybe 3, 4 years tops at this rate. We're cruisin. (don't mind the loop on the bonfire, it needs some work lol)

Dark Souls 2, but it's really King's Field 5.

Seems like there'll be a co-op summon, so if you have 2, you just queue for a third. That's seems the most likely reason for it. Solo is seperate entirely, and balanced for it. While co-op is balanced for 3.

Also possible that they just mean it'll be harder to co-op without a 3rd, but you can.

I'm working on one of my projects tonite on twitch. Every Sunday is gamedev. We mostly listen to Silent Hill ost and relax.

I don't promote much, but I stream every day except Wednesdays, every week. 10pm-ish est. Anyone is more than welcome to hang out! Just decided I'd throw it out there!

Ahhh I see, yea I'm not sure on that tbh.

It does sound like it's not impossible to play solo, but i can only imagine there's tons of enemies and bosses made to overwhelm even a full squad.

I'm not that stoked about the weird multi-verse fanservice. Rogue-likes are kind of exhausting as well. Why wouldn't you be able to play it tho? It'll be on all major platforms won't it? Just the playtest in Feb is console exclusive.

Low res remake of Majula from Dark Souls 2 - built in Godot 4.2

Dark Souls 2, but it's actually King's Field 5. #indiedev #fromsoft

It snowed!!

Moving between multiple 3D viewports is such a hassle. Blender doesn't have basic wasd flight, godot doesn't handle perspective zoom and panning well, and Smithbox doesn't do any panning/zoom with mmb. I think I'm pretty good at going back and forth, but I trip up so often.

So ketchup and ranch is "kranch"

What do you call Sriracha and Ranch??

I love old classic games, but I absolutely do not miss 5-10 minute long unskippable cutscenes.

I'm just gonna throw together a test of Majula with a first person controller and see how it looks. This dumb idea is eating away at my brain...

I had so much fun porting Dark Souls 2 assets into godot for this mod! I'm now considering what it would take to port the rest bit by bit. And then maybe add a first person controller with tank controls, and do a kings field//dark souls 2 hybrid...

I dream too big for my own sanity

Zepik Village in Ys has the best vibe. The OST is like 16 bars and yet it's never stale. I really just keep coming back to hang out

I hate that spotify made me a "Moody Mix", but even more than that I hate how often I listen to it.

I'm not moody, I just like melancholy instrumentals when I'm working, and I'm always working. Don't act like you get me spotify! Nobody really gets me... *hairflip*

peak dark souls 2 gameplay

I'm pretty sure I'm about to commit to a Dark Souls 2 de-make pretty soon. It's nagging at me but I'm not ready yet!

Windows is ending free security updates for win10 Oct 2025?? That seems like a hell of a turnaround. Has 11 really been out that long??

I'm very self conscious of my use of ellipsis after hearing Marcus from Last Podcast on the Left say it was a pet peeve years ago.

I also grew up reading comics, I never considered if that's the root of it...

I still think it's a viable way to end a sentence lost in thought.

I personally love the simplicity of gdscript, but a lot of folks build in C# and use external compilers to build their code in godot as well, and it's nice you can do either. It doesn't have to be casual only. It's as viable as unity in 2024, and getting better with every release, imo.

Corpse inventory from the game Venetica, released September 4, 2009 by Deck13

Venetica has one of the coolest corpse inventories I've ever seen! This game lives and breaths late 00s rpg. It's kinda like if Gothic had a badass female protagonist.

I think this UI design is phenomenal, but how do we feel about it??
