An important step to recapturing the look of #ArkDefender when porting from #Unity to #Godot is the background transitions. We had to rework shader inputs to account for tiling when we upgraded the implementation. #indiedev #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame #screenshotsaturday

#Unity does its 2D with 3D quads, to maintain the look (& improve code reuse) we use Sprite3Ds in our #Godot port. Godot doesn't have masking for Sprite3Ds. This means things like some fire effects need new solutions. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #2dgame

Continuing with issues caused by particle differences, #Unity has a ping-pong emission mode. Rarely used, but I did use it for a tentacle effect. So, how to recreate it in #Godot? I used a path follow node! #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev

Alanadeer heavy fighters use synthetic Ith warheads which leave a lingering damage field when they detonate. So you have to be careful where you intercept them. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

This week we added a quick easter egg of sorts. A toggle in the options that turn your base missile explosions into festive fireworks! #indiedev #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame #screenshotsaturday

This week in porting #ArkDefender (a #roguelike #missilecommand where you defend from aliens, evil cults, & more) to #Godot we got upgrade screens ported. They were a mess in #Unity & took forever to port & scale! #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

Next week in the port of #ArkDefender (a #roguelike #missilecommand where you defend from threats external & internal) the Sarien Alliance are engaged in a civil war. They use lots of low quality 3rd party ships. #indiedev #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame #screenshotsaturday

Alanadeer Fighters are swift & maneuverable with powerful Energy Weapons. They can often out of the way of a missile at the last minute, making hitting them difficult. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

Something we’ve been delaying in our porting of #ArkDefender to #Godot is checking the tutorial. Fortunately, it just needed a few fixes & tweaks to work. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

I don’t remember why we added valentines skins anymore, but they still work in the #Godot port of #ArkDefender (a #roguelike #missilecommand where you defend from threats external & internal). #indiedev #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame #screenshotsaturday

I've realized just how powerful women are after seeing firsthand their ability to navigate complex situations with ease, something I don't think men can do in the same way. Source #Empowerment #Equality #Respect #Women #Power
