Hi, so, not really sure what rules if any @[email protected] has in mind for this community. But just delete this thread if it's against them, no worries.

With that out of the way, I thought it might be fun for us all to share a bit about our current project(s), along with anywhere people can find devlogs or demos or whatever else.

Sounds like a typical self-promo thread? Maybe. And maybe that's not allowed. But I have no horse in this race, my only "game" is currently a very janky prototype and my devlog channel exists only in my mind.

I can't get enough of other people's devlogs and love to discover new interesting sounding projects, so here we are lol.

Wotcha making?

Yeah I'd not played any of those but looked up Noita and immediately saw what you were talking about :)

I'm making a very uninteresting, very basic newbie project. Minimalist, generic low poly city builder where the city builds itself, basically. But very much just getting to grips with Godot at the moment so there's really not much to share! Still, having fun with it which is the main thing.

Well, that still sounds like a nice project. And a more attainable goal than I've set myself possibly. Are you doing it simply as a way into Godot, or are you planning to do something with it? Like, publish it somewhere?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

First was just to see if I could in Godot, but now I've got to grips with some basics I'm hoping to turn it into a real published game. Still very early on obviously, but the only games I've "finished" so far have been jam entries and I think this is about as small as a scope can get while still being worth anyone's time. We'll see how it goes!

Generally post about it over on Mastodon since they're the ones who got me to try Godot in the first place, although I just moved instances there so my profile is kinda empty haha.
