[Now Released] Here have a little preview of The Sun Gem

an upcoming choose your own adventure game I'm working on for the #Commodore64 as part of a game jam

Some things I learned when making this:

  1. It's better to make smaller games, as my last game was a more complex one that I couldn't finish
  2. Developing for a retro computer is easier when you don't use a game engine (luckily I don't really like working with game engines anyways)

Edit: I released the game! Check it out here!

Godot Engine has a new funding platform and they're calling for help https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2023/07/godot-engine-has-a-new-funding-platform-and-theyre-calling-for-help/ #Godot #GodotEngine #FOSS #OpenSource #GameDev


If you're not aware of the Black Game Developer Fund (I wasn't!), hey, now you are. This is rad! https://blackgamedevfund.com/apply/

Yo #GameDev folks, maybe spread this one out a bit? I know very little about the fund itself / I can't vouch for it or anything, but more options to choose from is better than less when it comes to funding.


โ€œ87% of games released before 2010 are no longer commercially available โ€“ and itโ€™s a huge loss for the art formโ€

https://www.theguardian.com/games/2023/jul/12/pushing-buttons-playing-old-video-games

Itโ€™s a good reason to open source your games once their commercial long tail had expired.

Apparently, there's a Fediverse game jam coming up in a month!

If you ever wanted a reason to work together with some of the cool artists/composers/devs that you've met on the fediverse, this could be a good excuse!

I'm wondering, if more people play the Erra: Exordium on Steam Deck, will it affect the time game verified?

v0.5.3 of doldrusidus adds monoliths that hold secret texts, which can be deciphered one character at a time.

In the demo below, I speed up "deciphering" with a tandem of machines to accumulate machine instructions for the monolith faster. The secret is slowly revealed in the top-right window.

#gamedev sprite test!

I think it is way too bouncy; I'm gonna localize movement to their legs when they walk, and keep the hood and hands still.

I also think the head may be a bit too flat on top in profile.


my on-again-off-again relationship with #alakajam is currently ON. a 48 hour #gamejam with a smaller, friendly community, runs the weekend of the 25th Feb. Teams and individuals welcome, come be my friend and make do some #gamedev https://www.alakajam.com/


In NBA Jam: T.E. for Genesis/Mega Drive developers only found out after making the 250k cartridges, that there was a save bug. But playing the game in a certain order fixed it, so it got a day one "patch" in the manual saying how to initialize memory. #GameDev


Duke Nukem 3D mirrors reflection were achieved by duplicating the room on the other side. If you deactivate clipping you can go to the other side. True reflections are computational intensive even today #GameDev


Here's one of my fav, in Zelda: A Link Between Worlds because a true top-down view in 3D would have perspective issues, they purposely tilt the objects, so the perspective looks good to the player from top. #GameDev


In Kirby's Dream Land for GameBoy, to save memory some enemies have the same "back" part of the sprite and only change the face. #GameDev


In Super Mario Bros. because of memory limitations clouds and bushes are the same sprite but using a different tint color. #GameDev


In Super Mario Galaxy when Mario drowns in a swap his hand reaches out, but because of the size of the head devs had to shrink it so only the hand is visible to the player #GameDev


This #gamedev trick is from Undertale, to prevent NPCs to walk on pits, Magic glass.
