Yesterday, I replied to a question in the Godot forum with a wrong answer (since I misunderstood the question at first). Today, if you google "godot delete pattern", that answer will be displayed as a "featured snippet" right on top. 🙄 (The correct answer is in the same thread, but so far Google hasn't picked up on it)

Me and 1neila1 made a weird experimental golf-like platformer-like, which you can get for free on itch

Today I tried what Geometry Script is in Unreal Engine 5. Cool features, but I won't use it for the game. Maybe only as tools for level design

I've been reflecting a lot lately on just how much the games industry has outgrown creators' ability to properly cover it.

Specifically on the games that are left in the purgatory between extensive & emphatic coverage, and complete disinterest.

I call it 'Coverage Limbo'

Is anyone aware of any data abut what kind of @godotengine resources people are looking for? Like some questionnaire about what level of expertise and what kinds of workflows people would like to see more tutorials on, and in what format (video, blog post, podcast, smoke signals, etc)?

For everybody who wasn't there, here's what you missed at yesterday's Godot Engine Meetup in Berlin: Grown adults toying around at a kid's playground. 😁 (Note: There were a lot more people! It's just that I took my photos at the end of the event.)

Another photo of the group. Emilio is visibly starting to worry about the structural safety of the climbing scaffolding. But Sanders is signaling everything is clearly a-okay, supported by some confident thumbs up from the back row.
A third photo of the group, with everybody (but the people on top of the structure) putting their hands up now. Emilio is shooting finger pistols into the air like it's the wild west, while Nat is living the dream of photobombing her boss with some sneakily added bunny ears.
A final photo of the group, with raised hands still, and one brave soul now joining in on the fun and doing a "Look mum, no hands!" scaffolding stunt.

I think following specific hashtags of a profile would be useful. Technically it's like following a profile but the timeline posts filtered by specific hashtags. Perhaps similar logic on Mastodon, to hiding boosts from profile or filtering posts by subscribed languages.

Could probably solve the issue where folks create multiple accounts for different interests or circles.

kinda messed up situation because customers are rightfully upset, but we know it's the publisher pushing this, but devs will feel the pain.

Wow! This wasn't on my radar at all, but Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo looks absolutely fantastic. It isn't like Shovel Knight at all, but I want to say it has Shovel Knight Vibes anyways. Very worth a peek. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2870350/Pipistrello_and_the_Cursed_Yoyo/ #IndieGame #IndieGames

Dang the Paradise Killer OST kinda rules? I still need to sit down and play the game someday, but I gave the soundtrack a shot today while working on boring business stuff and now I'm groovin pretty hard.

Just finished watching Brackeys first Godot tutorial video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOhfqjmasi0

I've never used Unity, so I don't have any history with his videos, but I'm starting to understand his excellent reputation: This is a pretty much flawless introduction into the Engine! It will get you to a full game in just about an hour, with minimal coding, while using many of the most important features of the Engine. Recommended!

Hey @godotengine, look at this cutie @fahrstuhl made for my birthday! 🤩 Complete with wobbly eyes, which obviously is a must-have these days! (CC @kenney)

What kind of work do you share between your Godot projects, and how?

Currently I can think of the following:

• Actions (e.g., quickly setup common input actions)
• Plugins (some encapsulated tool usually with editor support)
• Templates (something you intend to edit, like a base character controller)
• Asset/Collections (some scripts/scenes which you could inherit from/use, but wouldn't be expected to edit, such as ui-components)

hi! if you are reading this, recommend me a game. any game you love. now

I RARELY say this, but this is a case for "pirate it" if you got screwed. If I ever do this with my games, providing no alternative for players who purchased it, feel free to pirate it!

Back in December 2023, Ubisoft announced it would power off the servers for its racing title, The Crew, and as of April 1st, 2024, the game would go offline. Of course, this caused a massive uproar from those who paid for the game since this would make the game unplayable without those servers. But things have taken another turn for the worse, as Ubisoft has taken things a step further and started removing the game from people’s Ubisoft Connect accounts. I’m not making this nonsense up. I wouldn’t have even noticed if I hadn’t logged into Ubisoft Connect because I wanted to log back into The Division 2. It’s not like Ubisoft had told us it was going to do this.

Felt rather unproductive today, so I decided to check out some games instead. So, this is where you come in: Tell me why I'm dead wrong – and why those are your favorite games ever! 😜 (Both are rated as "Overwhelmingly Positive")

#BuckshotRoulette #SheepyAShortAdventure #GameReviews #SteamReview

My steam review for the game "Sheepy: A Short Adventure" after 1.0 hours on record: "Yes, this game is free. Does that mean I would recommend playing it? No! At first glance, it seems like an outstanding deal: A (very!) cute main character, excellent lighting, atmospheric music and superb sound design – presentation-wise, this game absolutely nails it! That being said, gameplay-wise, I found it extremely boring. It's mostly a walking simulator, with some very basic platforming and two similarly bland boss fights sprinkled in. Combine that with a bunch of somewhat slow, unskippable cutscenes and a story that's not worth bringing up, and you get a good idea of what this game had to offer in terms of 'fun'. "
