Had the opportunity to showcase a very early version of our silly mars game project at the Tasmine Summer Festival and answer some questions alongside @hey.paris about making games in Tasmania.
Lots of constructive feedback and silly bugs, but great to see our game out in the wild ❤️
The title for Malys in an inky red on a black background, below are the words: V1.0 releasing this October.
It's time... the candles are lit... 🕯️
Our exorcism roguelite Malys is coming OUT of Early Access into 1.0 on the 24th of October!
There's so much more to discover, including the FULL story as penned by David Gaider, more demons, more cards, and more content.

I’m quite emotional, thinking about how just on Wednesday night we had ~30 people show up to an impromptu midweek meet up at a new venue, representing a broad swathe of experience levels and opinions

Also discovered that #Godot has that property painting mode for tilesets?? Absolutely mind blowing how easy it was to add custom movement speed on a per-tile basis 🤯

Lil Astronaut is walking around!
(Not pictured) me figuring out #Godot spritesheets, animations, blend trees and tilemaps.
I think I prefer Godot's animation stuff over Unity? They feel fairly similar, each with their own gotchas

I haven't had the need to do that yet, but I figured it'd be best to break my main sheet down and import it on a per-animation basis to reduce the impact in case modifying it does break everything

Coming from 7 years of #Unity and slowly exploring #Godot it's mind blowing to me how easy and intuitive this sprite animation workflow is
