Champ and Bolt! Both wobbly and adjusting. They're doing great

me yesterday staring at the blank Outlook window at work, stun locked in Ollie's picking rugs, and forgetting to make dinner because I forgot to take my Adderall

I didnt do the donut 😅 I just wanted to make models for quake so I just downloaded blender and went for it. I learn better by just going in the deep end and picking up tricks along the way. It's only my second year so Im still ass at it. Do your fundamentals and you'll shoot ahead of everyone!

My first actual decent model in blender. Figured out how to use seams, make the model to scale with the reference image so the mask just slipped right over, Im...I'm happy.

ok going dark for real no more itty bitty updates

its so beautiful when you get it first shot ;-;

Im still playing with it. The hands before were just a cutout of my own hands and gun irl. The weapons I want uh...cost a lot. Otherwise, I would already 100% be doing the authentic 90s. I am still playing around with different shit. Probably gonna go dark until I get the style nailed down.

Did you know if you mark seams and shift click faces to unwrap it makes it...better? Like....extremely better? Like "wow i can actually use this" better?

I'm a shitty coder first and an artist at an extremely distant second

taking sexy ass arm pics to make UV masks (i will crush the resolution to 256x256)

Up next enemies and more guns FUCK

after an all evening crash course in remembering how Blender works I finally got smaller hands. More placeholder stuff but I hope to have some better shit soon. Always soon.

On the plus side I learned how to properly UV models so I'm quite happy there. No more unscrambling the things in Blender

I always feel dirty when I have to fill the gaps in my knowledge with free assets on itch (even when I modify them). Like I can't model humans worth a damn but other objects? Totally ok can even rig them mfs up

Better than fucking AI though

It's a double edged sword cause there's an off chance your project picks up steam. On the other hand the excitement of getting that notification just to see INDIE DEV BOT REPOSTER did it again succkksss

I went inactive for a few months and just started posting again lol. This is really motivating...thank you.

Yeah that's much cleaner than mine was. It was uh...worse lol. But I'll be referencing this topography, thank you Mr Bum

THAT FEAR IS REAL. How'd you do it if you don't mind me asking? My menu system became a spaghetti mess of nodes and scripts so there has to be a better way

Usually how the most special moments of your game are found too. "Ah damn I didn't mean it to work this way...but man it's fun..."

Movement? Combat? Puzzles? Any mechanics at all in Godot? Easy simple get it done in an afternoon.

UI? It's fucking over you're going to war with that software

The bots on that tag are crazy

Gonna be a day one purchase. Very happy the trailer uses an extremely improved shotgun over the first game, thank you 🫡

HE REALLY PUT THE FULL NAME HAHAHAABAHAHAHAHABAHAHHAHA

fuck it I'm gonna

It's a hell of a curve. Sometimes adding stuff as non-Steam and running via Proton or Proton-GE works. But, don't expect 100%. It took a while for me to find FOSS replacements for my tools but it's worth it. The software store thing on Mint is fantastic also if you haven't poked around there yet

God damn BlueSky crushed the FUCK out of this

don't mind the obvious placeholder Freedoom assets lol

Been doing a lot of messing around in EFPSE and I'm digging it. Making a shooter in Godot as a first project in that engine may have been a tad ambitious. Getting weapons and enemy AI working has been much simpler in EFPSE and the lowres look is perfect. On.

bro I just want to go back to Friday night man, what a show

@palpus.bsky.social just uploaded a finished build of Alien Shooter 3 and I won't be convinced otherwise

True. I find myself going back to Alien more because of the variety. Zombie is wicked easy too, never had any of those "holding breath edge of seat" moments like in Alien

👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

ZS2 was ok once you turned the comic filter off but the level design wasn't up to par with AS2. Probably unfair cause AS2 is almost perfect
