While the #ArkDefender port to #Godot is going well, some implementation bits slip through the cracks. e.g. it took us a while to trace turrets not rotating to Godot’s rotate function returning radians. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

When we ported the flotilla ships from #Unity to #Godot for #ArkDefender (a #roguelike #missilecommand where you defend from threat external & internal) the scaling got messed up on the damage VFX, but fixed now. #indiedev #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame #screenshotsaturday

The VNTII Nova Bomb, the super weapon in #ArkDefender (a #roguelike #missilecommand where you defend humanity’s remnants), ported to #Godot & mostly just worked! And it still looks cool in the Godot port. #indiedev #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame #screenshotsaturday

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

While the flak in the #ArkDefender port worked pretty much out of the gate in #Godot, we have been tinkering with the visuals quite a bit to get a better look. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

Another masking effect we had to recreate was the Audri’ll growth effect. Originally it was done with layered sprite masks & scaling, we remade it with a simpler single sprite & a unique shader. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

The Rovan Heavy Cruiser is one of the only Rovan military ship types that survived their military loss. As such it is faster and more heavily (& better) armed than their other ships. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

The last major piece to remake for Ark Defender, was the encounter editor. Purely a development tool, but it had to be completely overhauled redone as pieces depended on Unity specific systems. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

A recurring pain in porting #ArkDefender is how each engine does particles. In #Unity a particle trail is a ribbon, in #Godot it is not. This meant (among other VFX) we had to redo our lightning burst. #roguelike #indiedev #spacegame #indiegames #indiegame #IndieGameDev #2dgame

This week in the port of #ArkDefender (a #roguelike #missilecommand where you defend from threats external & internal) while making sure the Giant Mecha-hand boss works, we noted it lacked a cool crush sound. NO MORE!
