Getting so very tired of fighting mental and physical health issues so I'm just going to roll with them for a while. Say hello and listen to them scream at me, maybe find out how to accept them.
I shall return soon for more game dev, art, and madness ๐
'Til then, my friends ๐ท

I've already had to search up about 15 things, including how to open a file ๐ I feel like such a noob. It's breathing life into an old laptop though so I'm not complaining ๐
My closed fist with veins forming an A
I always wanted to be an Avenger and apparently my veins are drafting an application. Wish me luck.
My veins will return in Avengers Doomsday.
The more I think about it the more excited I am about switching ๐ Hopefully it will be a smooth transition.
just in time for #screenshotsaturday!
I'm working on making all this more visually appealing but hopefully this looks okay ๐
#OrbOrbMagi can now be wishlisted on steam! ๐ชฉ
Play #pinball as a #MagicalGirl (or #Goblin) and slay hordes of enemies with lots of fancy weapons ๐ช

I know the solution here (Linux) but I needed to vent. I have a half decent PC, it's nothing spectacular but it's a nice machine. Lately I've hated every aspect of using it. Every Windows update fills me with dread. My pc is slow, AI is everywhere. Fuck all this. Godot and Linux are in me future.
Getting closer to that million!
Congratulations Felix, Helmet Head is going to be absolutely incredible.
I like the saying:
If you're not doing everything wrong then you're not doing it properly.
I actually don't think that's a saying at all but don't let that bother you ๐
With all these stupid ass price increases in gaming I'm thinking of Renaming Five Arcade to Seven Fifty Arcade.
I love the feeling when you discover the mistake. It's a perfect mix of relief, pride, and sheer embarrassment ๐
Hopefully you'll feel more confident to mess around with code knowing you can undo things if you mess up ๐
Thank you, it's getting there. Just needs some game feel and some background art and it should be good to go ๐
You would be correct ๐
When I was a new coder, I was told by mentors I would make silly mistakes throughout my career. (eg, = instead of ==) "NOT I" I shouted "I shall be much more careful. For you to think that of me is an insult!"
I just forgot to attach a script I wrote to anything and wondered why it wouldn't work...
I have a custom pixel-style font but it's not very readable atm so I will be working on that soon ๐
Main menu in my game ๐ค

I'm trying to be all professional over here. I tend to make jokes, probably to deflect the nerves of showing this game. But over here, I can pretend to be all business like and cool and confident. An illusion I am currently breaking by typing this very post ๐ค
I'm absolutely sure that no spikes are in HH, it's an original hazardous obstacle which I invented only a few days ago, you must be thinking of something else. I'm now hard at work inventing the next original idea: projectiles! It's a game changer. ๐
That is an absolutely wonderful motivation for this. I hope the little one has an absolute blast leaning to code ๐
I don't think it's possible to make any code related project without it spiraling out of control ๐
I just spent longer than I care to admit trying to erase this grey square ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐ Sometimes I astound myself with my genius.
All right, that's a good-enough main menu for the prototype. The itch.io page is also done. I have just a few small tasks left before May 4th.
It looks like it's happening!

This is absolutely stunning! The water is so visually distinct, the splashes are mesmerising. I'll be spending a lot of time just starting at this game. Your work is incredible Felix!
Working on this little dock area rn for the snowy biome in Helmet Head. It's purely for visual and world building purposes but I think it's looking cool so far!
The weird looking water is the Night Sea. A literal and metaphorical ocean that connects Planes of existence.

I'd strongly advise paying attention to these warning signs! Spikes, Bats, Asteroids, Rouge Spaceships, Falling Barrels...so many things to be warned about.
Five Arcade: the only game with spikes, I'm pretty sure.

It's always weird when someone tells me how lucky I am for not getting hit by a car worse than I got hit by a car
I understand the sentiment but it's still weird
"You, sir, are so lucky you only got bollocked by a car and not completely fuck waffled"
"Yes indeed, very lucky, painkillers please."
I love the polish phase! Polish and refactoring are two very relaxing gamedev activities ๐
Good luck! I hope nothing breaks.
Can you guess how many Arcade Machines are in Five Arcade? I'll give you a hint: it's Five.
Any guesses?
Five Arcade, the only game with an unknowable amount of arcades. Unless someone guesses correctly, which they won't, I've hidden it too well.
