Bit of a bummer that's it not on a weekend - again! 🫤

Any plans to continue working on this? 👀 With a bit tighter balancing and an option to inspect your deck, I think there's some *serious* potential here!

Since it's #FollowFriday, may I recommend you all follow the Steam publisher of "Jungle Game Lab" and play some of their (free!!!) games? They put out some real pearls in February already, and followed it up with a second batch a few days ago.

Made a quick #FediJam prototype today. Not much to see yet, but well, it's a start! Honestly, I'm mostly posting this to make it harder for myself to back out of it. 😅

Yeah, true! 😢 Even if you compare the size of both the old and new text and take the bigger one to determine the particle's dimension, there will likely remain certain cases where it will look funny... Might work if you interpolate the `visble_characters` of the text, but that's a LOT more involved, of course (and won't work so easily for other Control nodes, I'm afraid). Still, one can dream... 😁

Didn't get around to actually do it yet, but in my gamejam template, I thought about spawning some dense, but quickly fading "dust" particles on top of all the labels, to hide the transition from one language to another.
Just in case that's something you want to experiment with. Your solution certainly is the more efficient and straightforward one, though! 😂

Curious: What did you do to get banned there? 😅

2024-08-27 19:08:15 UTC

I don't normally ask for boosts, but I have just LEAPED out of my comfort zone and set up my own gamejam, specifically for users of the Fediverse, and I'm scared shitless that nobody else will join, turning this into one giant embarrassment for me.
So if you want to do me a giant favor, please boost (and even better: join!) this: https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@fedi_jam/113035512940511485 PLEASE! 🥺 🙏

In case anyone else is using Godot from Arch Linux' "extra" repo: There currently is an issue with sending HTTPRequests, preventing you (amongst other things) from downloading export templates. This is *not* a bug in Godot itself!

I've been working on a to–do-list app (made with Godot) for some time now and while I can't be bothered to record a video right now, I figured I should probably start talking about it in public more often, so here's a first screenshot.
It's free and open source: https://github.com/njamster/habituary (Although I would recommend you still wait a few weeks for a beta version before giving it a try).

I regularly come across games that pick my interest, but can't be bothered to write about them at length. Yes, not even microblogging length. I'm L-A-Z-Y, alright?!
So, loosely inspired by the #Crashbook series by @npub1l2t…93pk, I decided to start sharing links to those games without further comment under the hashtag #LooksCoolDidntPlay (or #LCDP for short). Feel free to mute those hashtags, if they bother you – or join in on the fun by contributing your own findings. :)

Inspired by a recent post from @npub1ztz…exr0, I did yet another Godot plugin!
https://github.com/njamster/split_flap
It's a simple Control node. Define your own sequence of characters (or use one of the presets), then call `flip_to(char)` to flip to the respective character.
Appearance is fully customizable: font, font size, colors, panel styleboxes, vertical separation, animation time. If you're missing anything: Tell me!
Proper documentation will be following soon™.

It's DONE! Sure, I wasted *slightly* more time than expected on this custom Godot container. And yes, nobody ever asked for this, and I don't have any use for it myself. But it's done! Which, umm, is an achievement on its own, no? 😅

Hey #Godot users! Did you ever run into a UI issue where you thought to yourself: "Man, wish I could automatically arrange these nodes in the shape of a PYRAMID"?
...
No? Never? 🤔 Well, darn, because I just published a container for exactly that!
https://github.com/njamster/pyramid_container (#WIP!)
Why, you ask? Please. Don't! 😭 But it's kinda nice for tournament brackets. Look!
