planning to keep each sprite to two colors max + quadrated with a shader that I can adjust on the fly. Even with just trees set up, this is looking slick #GameDev #IndieDev #GodotEngine https://store.steampowered.com/app/4112820/Unfair_Dungeon/

it's nothing special, but setting up a shader and tool to let me do some 4-quadrant sprite recoloring will help me freshen up the look of unfair dungeon. I really like vertically split colors especially for foliage and maybe for the player character #GameDev #IndieDev

2025-12-19 04:38:13 UTC

I reconfigured some of my gradients so they would take the shortest route from one color to the next even if it meant looping down into negative numbers. This means less blue/green monotony because they span the middle of the spectrum. This here is Chromatic Tigrex, randomly created by my generator. #MHFU #MonsterHunter

the wheel of time book prequel New Spring came out in the middle of the series and I’d argue it improves the overall story by building some of the characters/groups that in the main plot are most guarded about their intentions and decisions

the new gogmazios is making me want to play wilds again. My issue has been that there’s so much stuff I want to do that I get analysis paralysis and quit out before I do fun new stuff. It doesn’t help that fighting lower tier monsters is brainless with how tanky the hunter can be #MonsterHunter
Also stories 3 looks great 😊

bulldrome vs bullfango mask + some blango and I got a new sword out of this quest. Still trying to find a way to make higher quality small gifs. The color is just drained out of the blango's face on this one. #MonsterHunter #FreedomUnite #MHFU

2025-12-08 21:20:32 UTC

hullyea, branching paths are IN THIS. I had to completely rewrite paths, rendering, generating, navigating, pretty much everything to do with paths was rewritten and the core of this game is paths. The '3' is bc I haven't implemented rendering 3-way paths just yet #GameDev #IndieDev #GodotEngine

missed a day (sad) but today I got the Path class started and have begun converting my previous array of vectors to the Path. I feel like I might be making this more complicated than it needs to be, but capturing the connections between tiles will be important I feel.

actually, what might be the best thing about gdunit is that I can easily just test a function pre-asserts. I'm writing a bunch of proc gen helper functions and it's making it really easy to generate print statements and whatnot to help with development - better than calling it from _ready in main

the prestige mechanic is complete sans juice. if you can hit the 50% flip, you can get coins for the prestige shop I'm implementing next.

Took down seregios & I think I need to banish Nemens back to camp. I never figured out how bleed works in this game bc they popped a cleanser every time. Not much of a debuff if the palico just fixes it for you.

I've done another 30 min planning session for the Tiny Creatures previous LD theme. Hopefully tomorrow I can start another tiny-jam prototype. #GameDev #IndieDev #LudumDare

I did Astro then moved to vanilla html/css since I didn’t find myself wanting to put the effort into to learning and leveraging astro

another ~hour to finish gameplay
- reach depth 200 for $$$
- survive on snacks
- collect coins
I really like this game. It was good practice to get something that feels good in a couple hours. After this, a good polish pass w/ art, sounds, etc could take this far #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike #LudumDare

I had kinda fallen off #MonsterHunter wilds after arch tempered Rey Dau, but the new FF collab looks so dang cool. I’m back.

30 mins planning + a little over 1 hr dev and it feels okay for a start. Drop down the darker holes to drop farther. Eventually you take damage, eat snacks, collect coins. I will give it another hour later, I think that will be enough to have a complete loop. #GameDev #IndieDev #LudumDare

getting closer to interesting decisions... kill kobolds for XP (blue), or kick them into the pit for coins (yellow) - the shop will focus on temporary buffs/tradeoffs compared to level-ups #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike

OOF - so I might try to ludum dare (never done) and I need to prep my prototyping. I can't give everything to the jam so I'm going to practice a 1-2 hr gameplay prototype for the previous jam theme Depths. If I can get something playable in 1-2 hrs, then I'll feel comfortable in the jam with my limited availability #GameDev #IndieDev #LudumDare will keep yall posted

I mayhaps hooked my ps2 w/ hdmi to one of my office monitors and mayhaps have spent 20 mins getting bullied by bullfango in #MonsterHunter while checking teams messages

2025-09-22 02:55:46 UTC

after a week-ish of reading and setting up a zettelkasten, I added some coins to nuzcraft's kicking kobolds #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike ..sry..the coins are at the END of the gif...

thanks for the feedback, I will try it out!

2025-09-10 18:37:18 UTC

graphical tiles are in! I need to fix some references to keep the ascii display as it was, but this is the last major hurdle before v0.03. Let me know if you like keeping the hero as an @ sign. Tiles by [@MrmoTarius](https://mastodon.art/@MrmoTarius ). #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike #Love2D

added support for font + scaling preferences. most fonts look bad at 1.5x scaling but sometimes you need that if 12px is too small and 24 is too big. Next is some font mapping so we can get some new glyph rendering #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike #KickingKobolds

in addition to support for control preference, I added support for color preferences. Here are some bad examples of a potential green-mode and light-mode #GameDev #Roguelike #IndieDev #Love2D #KickingKobolds

nada to show. I'm working on moving some preferences into a plaintext json file starting with keybindings. Eventually it would be cool to add some in-game remapping, but having a place to remap next to the game will be good too #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike

2025-09-07 03:13:12 UTC

experimenting with a new font. It's 8x16 instead of square. I think it looks nice in the new colors. I need more time to tinker. I might end up combining a set of tiles with a font I like to get the best of everything. #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike #Love2D

I updated the palette, added extra support for some color variations across floors and walls at different depths, and added screenshake. Prep for v0.03 #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike

not flashy but adding AOE to stomping can be powerful. The nearby kobolds get obliterated by the stomp-wave #GameDev #IndieDev #Roguelike
