Trying my hand at a tiny game. It's much more narrowly-scoped than my last one, so it may actually get done. ...maybe. Anyway, things can now deal and receive damage. But there's no concept of health, or even damage numbers, yet. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Two new enemies! With that, I think I have all the enemies I need for this region. (fun fact: the plants are called "Birds of Perdition") (even more fun fact: lookit that angry eyebrow on the boar. I love it.) #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev

Been quiet about the game, but I've been making some progress on cutscenes. But mostly, I've been waiting for... player character sprites! #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev

Two things tonight! The first is short and sweet. The inventory has a blinky cursor now! Also planning on adding a little panel to the top with item names. #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev

Had to fix up some of my reflection math. That meant reworking all the player character's secondary sprites' reflection offsets. Accidentally left animation interpolation on for the tail. #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev

Starting to get interaction into the game. We now have an Interactable component, and I'm starting to hook up the dialogue box. Still need to freeze the world when dialogue is on display, but we're halfway there. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames

Finally landed on a health restoration mechanics I like. #indiegames #indiedev #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Transitions are now generalized! Any of the four cardinal directions work (and there's a fifth variety, for things like staircases and doors). Individual rooms can override transition logic, but if they don't, the default is to just "find a room to the N/E/S/W of me". #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Started working on Y-Sorting (i.e. allowing things to go behind other things). Realized I'd have to move *every* entity's relative position up one tile. Did so. Broke the *hell* out of pathfinding. Was forced to invent some better debugging visualizations. #indiegames

Generalized pathfinding! I tried so hard to make my enemy avoidance use AStarGrid2D's concept of solid nodes, but couldn't get good performance out of it. In the end, I opted for a simple HashSet of occupied cells, and a check for occupancy in the movement update code. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegames

Does that mean 'DONBAS by AUTUMN' That is what Russian generals promise PUTIN 😹

In 2022 this propagandist claimed that Russia would conquer Ukraine within the first week of the invasion. She also claimed then that Russia needs two days to conquer Ukraine. I think Simonyan would sooner visit the Hague than Kyiv.

I will never outgrow my love for the #Chicago #Museum of #Science and Industry! As a kid, I remember visiting and feeling completely overwhelmed in a good way.

Rumors were rampant that Aaron Rodgers would show up during the draft in Pittsburgh and announce his return for 2026. The Steelers seem to be trying to throw water on that. (Or it’s just part of the setup for the big reveal.)
