Awesome to see @dadimakesmusic.bsky.social in Gggggggggroningggggen last night! This man has learned to weaponize awkwardness (in a good way). Also thanks for letting us get to know @actualmontaigne.bsky.social <3

It is finally done, what a wonderful set. Kinda sad to be done with it actually. #lego

Oh ok, there is an Super Text Input Field in the STM prefabs folder, so I figured that was a WIP.

I'll see what I can do with that

Hey Kai! I noticed you are working on the input field. Do you have an ETA or can you suggest a workaround? I noticed I can't just drag the STM into the inputfield params

Did a little more pixelarting, really happy with the results. Can you guess their purpose or the vibe I was trying to catch with them?

It's been a little quiet concerning #stilldelivering, I know. I have been having trouble finding the motivation. But I have not given up. Work and updates will continue soon(tm) #indiegame #gamedev #IndieGameDev

Yeah, but cant you adjust the emission speed based on the current velocity of the ship? It's been ages since I did anything with gm

Are you using unity? You could try upping the emission speed based on your ships speed?

Did a wee bit of late night pixel-placing and prodding. #IndieGameDev #gamedev #pixelart Next up some variations on the floor and wall panels

Thanks. I will experiment some with the events. See my posts for what I'm using it for, if you're interested.

I think that was what I was trying to achieve. I have multiple audio clips on the SuperTextMesh. I call the first at the start and the other half way through. But it just plays them all at random through the entire string.

Updated introduction scene. Now with added tutorial prompts and homegrown pixelart goodness.

Can I ask you one more question regarding the pack? I'm trying to use multiple audio clips in one Supertextmesh, but I want them to play on specific spots in the text. I tried using: <audioClips=string> Instead it just picks a random one for each letter

"Subtle" artstyle shift:

I couldn't afford the high detail arts style, so I went with homecrafted. #indiedev #gamedev

Still Delivering
A quiet game about persistence in a world that forgot why it exists.
Youโ€™re a lone courier. The streets are empty. The terminals still work.
Some packages matter. Some donโ€™t.
You deliver anyway.

@kaiclavier.com Hey Kai, quick question about your super text asset in Unity. I seem to have some issues fixing it in the sorting layer, do you have any tips for that?

Nevermind, apparently I already had an account with the e-mail in case. The error message could be a little clearer on that part.

I love how they remained true to the 70s/80s vision of future consoles/terminals.
