Same Asset Pack, 4 Months of Figuring Out Lighting.
Some lesson learned:
1. Find references. It is very hard to learn lighting from text. Find images you like and study them pixel by pixel.

"The books you read reveal a lot about you". That idea was pretty much the starting point for this game. You play as a bookstore clerk, fulfilling customer's order emails, and slowly uncover their secrets.

The engine's debug view v.s. what the player actually see.
Feels great to have a clean simulation engine that's decoupled from the views. Totally worth 3 months of hard work.

Godot went through the exact “sponsor is bad, so money is bad” discourse a few months ago, and… nothing of note changed — other than more people were paid to fix your bug reports and improve the engine for everyone. This page was created, too:

been stuck with this volumetric water shader for 2 weeks...
The idea was to have a ISLANDERS or bad north style, minimalistic tower defense/strategy game.
Kinda like how it looks but still somethings feels off...

Finally recovering from last week's cough. Threw what little energy I had into experimenting with procedural generation. Plan to turn each one into a full game.
Started with the basics: hex grids, Poisson disk sampling, ... etc. combined with existing asset packs. #gamedev #GodotEngine #IndieGame

Finally got the shader where I wanted it after way too much struggling. That creeping, slightly organic, slightly unsettling water feel.

A #gamedev trick that once you see it. you see it everywhere: Hysteresis
Whenever you need to convert analog into binary by introducing a certain threshold, it's a good idea to add a bit of hysteresis around that threshold

Hysteresis is the dependence of the state of a system on its history. For example, a magnet may have more than one possible magnetic moment in a given magnetic field, depending on how the field…

My all time favorite coroutine trick: scripting encounters or cinematics sequences with it
Waaaay easier to read and tweak compare to state machines for linear sequences.
just be aware that we have no way to cancel a coroutine in godot currently
