Finally finished a course I've been working on to help me get the rough beginnings of my new Farming RPG underway. There's a long, LONG way to go but I'm super excited to start transforming this into the vision in my head #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiedev

Following on from this I've decided to do something I've been wanting to do for a long time & I'm finally giving #GodotEngine a try. Been running through some tutorials and I'm really enjoying it, starting to see what all the fuss is about!

Been thinking about this (& related posts) a lot lately & I think it's a concept I'm going to explore further. My schedule, health issues & ongoing struggles with scope creep are making it extremely difficult to make progress lately. Well worth a read if you haven't already.

Following last month's post on WHY making small games makes your life better, here is a detailed one on HOW to make small games 🤏🎮✨

Turns out it's entirely possible to develop severe RSI in BOTH arms simultaneously when you're an overachiever like me, rendering you incapable of using your phone, doing any #gamedev or even playing games for the last 3 months. I didn't even get any fun meds for my trouble...

I was recommended this video today from @PirateSoftware. I have watched a lot of videos about #gamedev but this might be one of the best. Very inspirational & informative. Highly recommend you check it out if you haven't already - bit.ly/4dtx6Cq

Vegetables! Got a fair bit of bug fixing and restructuring done this week, but that's not interesting to look at so here's some new veges you can grow. Plenty more to come but it's nice to have some variety #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #indiedev

Wasn't as productive this week but the basic crafting system is up & running. Pop-up window will show you the requirements, recipes you don't have all the ingredients for will be blanked out. Can you tell I hate making UI? #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiedev #gamedevelopment #unity

What an absolute joy to wake up and see this face again. This man and his team inspired so many of us to get into game dev and I'm thrilled to see him back. Welcome home old friend

Chests! After some trial & error, chests are working & integrated with my existing inventory & save/load systems. Is it perfect? Hell no, I'll probably refactor the whole thing once I implement vendors, shipping bins, etc but it'll do for now #indiegamedev #gamedev #indiedev

First new addition to the game...the humble potato. Boil em, mash em, stick em in a stew. The opportunities are endless! #indiegamedev #indiegame #gamedev #gamedevelopment

If you haven't checked out the demo for the fastastic Thronefall by @_grizzlygames please do it now bit.ly/3JVOhzx. I can't wait for the full release. Hey Grizzly, I maxed out your demo instead of working on my own game, do I get a prize?

Had a huge blast of ideas for my #indiegame yesterday & couldn't focus on my job but i had to do my job so I couldn't work on my game but I kept thinking about my game so I couldn't focus on my job but i couldn't work on my game cause i had to do my job....adulting is hard.

Pathfinding upgrade. Tiles can be blocked such as when objects are placed on them & the NPC will recalculate a new path to go around them. Next up, multiple NPCs & some better visuals I think #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #indiegamedev #unity #gaming #indiegames #gamedevelopment

Coded up some 4-directional pathfinding for my NPCs. Click a tile, it'll find the quickest path & get moving. Blue tiles are the path it's following & yellow are the tiles my script has mapped in order to find the target #indiegame #gamedev #indiegamedev #indiedev #programming

Opinion time! So my Squarespace sub ran out for a website I don't really use. Should I spend another $250 (NZD) & put some more effort into the website or just move to Wix (free) for a basic site & put the money towards some assets for my game? #indiedev #gamedev #gamedevelopment

2 updates. Some areas the Walker can't enter, doors now control this & will only let the Player enter. Also, if the player enters a scene whilst in the Walker, he will start the scene that way. Baby steps people.
