#ConstructZero was ranked 12th in #GodotWildJam 94. Especially happy about some category rankings: #1 in accessibility #4 in control and #7 in fun. I plan to make a complete version of the game. #Gamedev #Godot #Indiedev #Sokoban Feel free to try it on web and feedbacks are appreciated!

Excited! Finally getting mine! #steamcontroller

There are survivors in the Construct 0's post-apocalyptic world. Working on a level in the game that tells a story of these survivors. Working on this level has taken some time, but keep pushing on. #godot #construct0 #indiegamedev

When I stuck on game designing I sometimes do some different art projects just to get my brain going. Last week I bought a Japanese bento book and made some bentos for my kids. #bento #japanesebento #cute

Working on a new playable character in #Construct0. His push mechanic is a little different where he stays at the same position when he pushes. It allows him to directly push a box to a mine and detonate it. #indiegamedev #godot #puzzlegame #sokoban

Some players are confused about why sometimes the Sentries are hostile and sometimes are not. So I added a little color indicator change to show the threat level. With the embryo, the color goes red (threat level high), green otherwise. #indiegamedev #godot #puzzlegame

Added a invisible floor trigger in #ConstructZero so now I can do things like this. And yes, I'm adding levels that are completely dark. #indiegamedev #godot #puzzle #adventure

Fellow game devs, I'd like to know your preferences about patching Jam games. When you want to patch a jam games on itch, do you update the jam build directly, or do you create a new game page for the game and leave the Jam built intact (with bugs etc)? #indiegamedev #gamejam

Today I discovered that there is a Movie Maker Mode in #Godot that can record gameplay into avi files. Then to interact with avi files, I had to learn how to use #OpenShot. And I made the dark area with light effects in #ConstructZero. What a productive day! #indiegamedev #puzzlegame

Set up some framework code today to add in-level conversation "cutscene"s with a simple json file. Now I can show the exact moment Dr. Wang dies. 🪦 #godot #indiedev #puzzlegame #sokoban

Working on controller support for #ConstructZero. I added an auto input detection. If the player hit a button on the controller(bottom right), the input prompt immediately switch from keyboard to controller It is fairly easy to implement in #Godot #Gamedev#indiegame#indiedev#sokoban#puzzlegame

'm very proud to come up with a "Kids mode" in #ConstructZero. It was all because my son asked to play when I was working on the game and I had to remove all corpses, and stories related stuff to let him play. Now with kids mode, my kids can play the game too! #gamdev #indiegame #godot

Making a Sokoban puzzle game for #GodotWildJam 94 this week. I came up with some Names for the corpses in the game and suddenly finding myself getting personal and writing back stories for the corpses. Gotta stop scope creeping and focus on the game. #godot #indiedev #gamedev #sokoban

WIP character selection scene in #MayThereBeeFlowers. Surely adding the BI to the game is fine, right? #gamedev #indiegame #godot #roguelike

Back to the real work I planed for today. Working on the art of the 2nd playable character in #MayThereBeeFlowers Pollicaster. #pixelart #gamedev #godot #indiegamedev

Got distracted AGAIN from my original plan of adding a new playable character today. Ending up doing some card art design. The left is old and right is new. Do you like the new one better? #godot #gamedev #indiegame #deckbuilder

Hmm these 4 new tooltip background colors all have good contrast with light colored text and made the text clearer. I'm trying to decide which one fits the aesthetic of the game more. Anyone has any preferences? The final decision will be made by my wife 🫡 #godot #indiedev #gamedev

Got some feedback from someone play testing #MayThereBeeFlowers that the text in tooltip is a little unreadable. I'm trying a different color for the tooltip background. Do you think it looks better compares to the old one? Left: Old, Right:New #indiedev #gamedev #godot

Drawing Friday: Working on more plants for level 2 in #MayThereBeeFlowers. Can you guess what kind of biome would level 2 in by looking at the plants? Extra credit for correctly guessing the names of the plants 😜 #pixelart #godot #indiegame #indiedev #gamedev

New devlog: A tutorial and more - May There Bee Flowers(Demo) cyanglaz.itch.io/may-there-be...

My 7yo drew a Monoco after watching me play #expedition33 #prouddad #art #handdrawn #videogames

Got feedbacks from some players playing #MayThereBeeFlowers demo that they were a little confused at the start. So I'm making an interactive tutorial overlay! Took some time to get the highlight shader right, the entire tutorial is still WIP. #godot #indiedev #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

May There Bee Flowers Steam page is up. BEE🐝 sure to wishlist. 🙏🙏 #gamedev #indiegame #deckbuilder #cardgame #godot #roguelike

Got a little shop renovation done in May There Bee Flowers. 🛍️ #godot #indiedev #gamedev

A simple animated menu for May There Bee Flowers #indiedev #gamedev #godot

In May There Bee🐝 Flowers, you can "enchant" an action to a card, this makes your card takes additional actions and essentially strength your deck!

Gave me some flappy bird nostalgias

Boomerang Jack LAUNCHES FRIDAY Wishlist on Steam ⬇️ #screenshotsaturday #indiegames

Just finished #expedition33 what a beautiful game. I told my 7 year old son the story and he really enjoyed it.

Opinion: Video game cut scenes should have a rewind button. #videogame

Some gameplay of May There Bee Flowers. I hope you like it! #Godot #Gamedev #Deckbuilder #indiedev

Made this cover art for my game May There Be Flowers. Will soon start working on the Steam Page. I'm excited! #indiedev #godot #pixelart #gamedev

I'm working on making the map more thematic. So I made the map into a sea and the nodes are (sort of) islands. I would like to improve how the water looks. Any recommendations? #indiegamedev #godot

Playing some card, grow some flower and listen to some cosy raining ambience is perfect for a random November Monday evening. 🍵🍵🍵 #Godot #indiegamedev ##roguelikedeckbuilder

Work in progress: water physics and animation. Looks pretty juicy! #Indiegamedev #Godot #ScreenshotSaturday

Bad coding sinks the land. 🤷‍♂️ #godot #indiegamedev

Added foreground and background and it looks much better now! #indiegamedev #godot

The "Recycle" card adds a recycle buff to a field, adding water to that field will shuffle 3 "0-cost-1-water cards" to your hand. Great for some water boost! #screenshotsaturday #indiegamedev #godot

I've been working on recreating Super Mario Galaxy from scratch in Godot 4.5 for the past few days for one of my classes! Really happy with how this is looking! #godot #indiedev #mario #mariogalaxy #gamedev

Added some simple interaction on the map. Next I need to wire each node types to different scenes. #indiegamedev #solodev #godot

I (not very creative) created the level traverse map for my rogue-like deck builder gardening game. Still very proud of myself! 👏 #indiegamedev #godot
