Here's a tutorial I wrote on using components to help keep your code organized.

  • Thank you! I worked on this in my free time, about 4-8 hours a week roughly, over 2.5 years. It definitely took longer than expected but it was a good lesson in learning how to scope. My biggest regret is probably not doing more design work before I started implementing things.

    I also kind of regret doing most of the art myself, next time I would definitely start with premade assets or work with an artist.

    I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed doing some of my own sound effects though. It turns out you just hit things with other things near a microphone 😆

  • The feedback is very appreciated! I'm collecting a list of things for future patches.

    For the difficulty, I definitely skewed towards more difficult because it's an arcade style game. There's always a base of 6 mice per wave, but each power up you purchase adds a mouse to the next wave. The idea is that you can either be really good at bouncing, or you make good use of power ups to be able to reach $70. If you can earn enough to get one power up in a wave, try using that to help start snowballing to higher moneys in subsequent waves

    I just released my Godot-made game!

    store.steampowered.com Twinkle Stardust's Catnap Chaos on Steam

    Protect your cute sleeping cat in this action-arcade resource management game with single stick controls. Test your aim by bouncing pesky mice off walls. The more mice you kick away, the more money you earn to buy power-ups. With clever bouncing, combine these power-ups for powerful effects!

    Twinkle Stardust's Catnap Chaos on Steam

    Available on Linux and Windows (and developed on Linux!)

    It was honestly so fun to develop using this engine, it's so lean compared to something like Unity

    Another darktable text tutorial! I know darktable has a reputation for being intimidating, but it's really powerful software and you can get a lot done with very few modules.

    This orange cardamom cake is a flavorful one-layer cake made with fresh orange and warm cardamom. Olive oil adds a fruity flavor and makes the cake extra moist. It's topped with a two-ingredient chocolate ganache and everyone will love it!

    Someone posted an olive oil cake recipe here a while ago. I found and made this one, super good

    lemmy.one Why don't idle games mine for crypto? - Lemmy.one

    It feels like wasted power. You could at least be earning something off it. The creator can either take a cut if it’s free or lump sum for paid. I’ve seen a few idle games take up a lot CPU resources, not necessarily GPU so it had me wondering. Why not make it mine?
