@HexagonNico how we imagine the character feels, considering fur in such a climate 🥵🔥

Default lighting in the can be... sub-optimal and extremely confusing, especially to new developers.

Thankfully there exists a simple add-on that makes realistic lighting in Godot a one click process.

The open-source game engine we're making and three of the inspirations behind it.

Big thanks to @akien for helping out with this one!

godotengine OP ,
@godotengine@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

What I was told: the engine used was the precursor to Godot, since Juan & Ariel were some of the original devs of that game; it's called Regnum Online.

Really disappointing that the #Godot team keeps posting only on Xitter.

@db0 yes? Can't quote/repost stuff from other users on a different platform, at least not without hassle.

Natural interaction wise we're doing our best to split the time between platforms, but we only have one social media person...

godotengine ,
@godotengine@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@krazyjakee @db0 I don't know what to answer you, just the Community Manager at the end of the day.

If you want the developers to see something, you might want to consider showing it off on our self-hosted, official forum (https://forum.godotengine.org/) or submitting it to the asset library.

godotengine ,
@godotengine@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@krazyjakee @db0 Yeah 😅 I just really am not the right person to give you feedback on code. Game development in general I understand, but this goes over my head^^

is getting closer 🎉

Time to announce the official (yet casual) we teased:

📆 10th of May
⌚ 16:00 - 19:00 CEST
📌 Tempelhofer Feld, Haupteingang, Oderstraße (Ost)

Let's grab food & have a chat in the park. Yes, there will be pins!

godotengine OP ,

You can expect to meet @Emi & @murderveggie there, but how about a show of hands who else plans to attend? 🙋

godotengine OP ,
@godotengine@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

Due to popular request, VENUE CHANGE 🚩

📆 10th of May
⌚16:00 - 19:00 CEST
📌 Max-Josef-Metzger-Platz, Park

This park is much closer to the venue, right across the street!

You now need to create an account to donate to https://fund.godotengine.org - but this change is indeed for the better!

It let's you update your name in the credits by yourself and manage subscriptions faster.

Post one snapshot from your project without any additional context and let people in the comments guess what your game is about!

This is totally not a ploy to teach you about the importance of self-explanatory screenshots on your store pages, no no no.

Guess who is finally feature complete? Yes, 4.3 is near!

It's becoming even beefier with 650 commits in this particular 🥩

Note for those who saw a certain tutorial: TileMap layers are now also nodes 😬

TL;DR:

  • 2D physics interpolation
  • TileMap layers as nodes
  • Reverse Z depth buffer
  • Automatic engine update check
