1 more level + a final boss to go and I am content complete for nomal mode. Then my focus will shift more towards art, sound and maybe 1 or 2 extra songs.
Speaking of... I have made another song for Slimetopia to use near the end of the game. on.soundcloud.com/s79pNIaiUnqD...

"YOUR INSOLENCE ENDS HERE!" Started working on the penultimate boss of the game. They are not happy with with persistance.
2 Bosses and 1 level to complete and I have finished making all the levels that I wanted to create initially.

The feature creep devil got me interested enough to spend 5 hours to see if multiplayer is possible.
Short answer - Yes. Long answer - Yes, but I would need to learn a lot more as currently 2 of player abilities doesn't work at all for any player.
Help! π

The feature creep devil is on my shoulder whispering to me today. "You should add co-op to your game. It would be funny to play"
It might be funny and maybe even good but I can't be adding that when I'm close to hitting beta!

Yep that's me! π
Finally got around to sorting out the players interaction with 'Slippy' slopes. This took longer than I expected to implement but now it's another tool I can use when designing my levels.

Spent my first bit of money on my game dev. Not directly for Slimetopia, just the new logo + branding for PhoenixDragon Games. The person I commissioned on Fiverr did an amazing job!
Also got the domain up with a basic website! www.phoenixdragonmedia.com
Also also, new Slimetopia update is out!
PNG RPG is officially available for wishlisting on the steam marketplace!
Pixel art sandbox survival game with old RPG feel in a 3D world.

Took a couple of hours out of my schedule to buy a domain and whip up a very basic site for my indie development. Happy with the styling, just gotta work on some branding to go with it!

In other news the next slimetopia update should be on steam soon!

I love how powerful animation is in Godot but it takes a good amount of time to get right! It's taken me about 3 hours to do an 11 second animation for a new level on Slimetopia and it's not quite perfect yet. #indiedev #indiegame #solodev #godot #gamedev #2Dgame #2Dplatformer #wishlistonsteam
Win11, latest build. I tried the different capture modes as having it on 'auto' for both game and window capture didn't pick up Godot at all.
Interesting. I was having the exact issue that you described when trying to stream Godot dev yesterday. Both pop out and embedded tests were just grey screens for OBS. Monitor Capture was the only way around it for me but far from ideal.
I did it. Yesterday I launched my first game!
#gamedev #indiedev #indiegames
Not sure if it's just me, but I like to come up with ideas for potential future projects as motivation to finish my current one.
I want to try 3D next time so something small will be ideal. I'm torn between a short JRPG or some sort of driving... or maybe both? ππ

Haven't touched the music production side of Slimetopia in nearly a year. Made myself an interesting sample that I think may be fit to be the 'Hallucination' world boss song if I go further with it. A haunting sense of urgency!

Going down into the sewers for this level. Done some more art so I can start to get a feel of what the level may look like. Need to think about the sewer floor and platforms next.

Developer Screenshot from The Curse Of Slimetopia showing the start of a new tilemap, background and some lighting.
Well I managed to make a small start on my first attempt at making some art for my 'Neonscape' levels. This will require a tonne of work but will certainly push my current artistic limits. Hopefully I'll learn some good lessons.

Showing off the Discord Presence at work.
I really need to up my social media game at some point and posts updates from my game more than twice a year π
.
Recently tackled the tasks of figuring out how to implement localisation and setting up Discord Presence.
I could do with my creative juices starting to flow again though!

I want to start posting more so I decided to challenge myself to a character every day!
Today's character is the one and only - Alien!

In the image, the left side is before and right is after. It's most noticable with how different the lighting is working. The right side is a lot more subtle.
A before/After comparison showing the difference between not having a WorldEnviroment node and having one.
Recently discovered the power of the WorldEnviroment node in Godot. Looks like an essential for 3D, but even in my 2D game it's had a big impact on blending the colours together to make it more cohesive. As a newbie pixel artist, this is a godsend.

I would say, as long as you have a good small slice of your game that you are happy for people to form opinions of your entire game from, then absolutely go for it.
If you game isn't going to be free then this is a way to potentially get some 'on the fencers' to buy it.
Waaaahh!!@ I officially have a steam page up and running!! π²π€―π₯Ή
Check it out! I have the link in my bio and I will post it in the first comment below!!
(feel free to wishlist it if you're interested :D)

I managed to complete my very first #lowpoly #3D model on #Blockbench!
I'm not very good with textures yet but I had a lot of fun π

Resharing this post with proper tags in hope it reaches more devs :)
#gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #steam #wishlist #localization
Question regarding your localisation. Was this just a simple Google translate job or did you have/seek native speakers to assist?
Certainly something I want to have in my game/store page at some point and I guess sooner rather than later would be beneficial.
Wearing all the hats is both a blessing and curse.
It means I can usually get something done even if I only have a small amount of time and I can do something else if I feel blocked.
However it also means that I HAVE to do a basic amount of everything to feel any progression.

Absolutely loving the art!
Itβs gonna get sticky!
