Nathan Hoad 🐱 Bravest Coconut out NOW

After 4+ years spent tinkering, Bravest Coconut is available on Steam. It's a Point & Click Adventure with no pointing and clicking, taking the quirky puzzles from games like Monkey Island and mixing with the exploration and action of retro Zeldas: s.team/a/2913190 #Godot #PixelArt #IndieGame

Don't let billionaires convince you slop is the future. They're used to managing & directing, not making things themselves. Of course they can't see the difference. They don't understand your love for the craft. Keep making personal, beautiful games. You've got my support 💖

Whoever made that Bravest Coconut game sure has good taste... @nathanhoad.net

Thank you, kind stranger 🤩

We made a free shader series, Your First Shader from ZERO in Godot 4: gdquest.com/library/firs... You will create an animated portal step by step and learn reusable techniques like drawing procedural shapes, create masks, use smoothstep() to control transitions, draw gradients, animate, and more.

Just played "Bravest Coconut" - an adventure puzzle game by @nathanhoad.net starring his cat in the lead role. Loved it! Clever, witty writing, and puzzles that got the noggin' working without frustration. My favourite moment was this room featuring local #Indiegames. Can you guess these ones?

Screenshot to not pile on OP but the ‘can make games faster’ argument holds no weight for genAI use in cultural production. A game made in a week has long been able to be more commercially successful than a game made in a year. GenAI didn’t create that situation.
