oh wouldja look at that -- we got a whole bluesky account just for the game now! isn't that swell?

Every game I've made has had a "Gameplay" toggle in the settings menu, which is always set to "Off" and can't be turned on.

You can get pretty far with assets from opengameart.org and various free/paid assets on itch.io! I'm decent at 2D but I can't do 3D modeling at all so I've been mixing and matching parts from various assets I've found online.

So THAT'S why there's 3 people at the animal shelter. They're a band! It all makes sense now.

There's Input.is_action_pressed as a method you can call that anywhere, and then the _input and _unhandled_input methods that any Node can inherit, which can centralize all your input-specific stuff, so I think that kind of works how you're thinking.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but if you define Actions in the project settings then you should be able to refer to them by name in code; Actions can be (re)mapped to any number of inputs without needing to change the code, since you're referring to the action name, not the specific key/button.

who do you think he is? he is.

Thank you for your service.

I always use RefCounted for this purpose.

Aside from the "being awake at 5am" part this is goals tbh. I wish I had the strength/willpower to bite into a raw onion.

See you space cowboy...

Someone was telling me that their uncle has been missing for years, and that I can look them up on Wikipedia. So I immediately did so. And that's how they found out that their uncle was, in fact, no longer missing, but dead.

Krita for art, Joplin for notes (and occasionally Obsidian begrudgingly even though it's not FOSS), Blender for 3D. Godot for gamedev obviously. 😎

When I set up my RSS reader app (shoutout to @inoreader.com) I picked a few random feeds from the default categories and such, and since some of them were food industry sites, I now get to see riveting headlines like “Innovation featuring cherry flavors is accelerating” and I'm like "cool, great."

wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

The age-old question of "what's better, a slower-to-update encyclopedia vetted by professionals in their fields, or a rapidly updating one controlled entirely by volunteers?" was unfortunately answered with "neither. the magic chatbot that confidently gives answer-shaped responses wins, actually."

There are still ska bands today whose names are just some phrase with a random syllable replaced with "ska." This trend will live on forever with ska.

I can't think of any non-ska examples, though.

Optimize GDscript more, and the feeling that you're missing out on a performant game by not switching to C# would go away or at least be greatly reduced.

Agreed. Making a C# and GDscript project is a nightmare (or was when I tried it a year ago, at least), but using just GDscript means you're locked out of Peak Performance and just using C# means you're missing out on so many of the Godot-specific conveniences built into GDscript (like @onready).

There are! There's even a feed just for seeing Godot content:

Sorry, we can't do that. Best we can offer is a companion podcast or aftershow.

is this the one with the rolaids joke or is there a second 80s sex trivia arcade game

A comic depicting some sort of science lab. Frame 1. Two scientists are looking inside a cage at some sort of creature. The first scientist says "I've never seen anything like it. This species' self-defense mechanism is to post relatable memes mocking their predators online." Frame 2. The second scientist looks at the first and says "I don't appreciate your attempts at humor, Dr. Medina." The creature turns its head and looks at the scientists, eyes wide, and pings are heard from below them. Frame 3. The scientists pull out their tablet and phone, which show a meme of the throwing up emoji with the caption “WHEN THE JACKASS WHO SKIMPS ON THE GOOD TREATS TALK SHIT” on the top, and on the bottom “TALKS SHIT TO THE LEAD SCIENTIST.” In the background, the creature is hissing at the second scientist.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 31. If this worked I'd be unstoppable. The end! Back to less exciting posts next year.
