Hi all! Posting from my alt account on lemmy.blahaj.zone because it’s been brought to my attention that we have users here from Beehaw and of course they can’t see anything I’m posting with my main account @[email protected].

Sorry Beehaw folks, I’m still getting to grips with mod duties here.


Anyway. As part of the “try things and see what sticks” approach to community engagement, welcome to the new weekly chat thread!

Whether you have progress to show off à la Screenshot Saturday, a Monday morning gripe about unreasonable expectations on your team, or a Wednesday win, this is the place to share how your gamedev week is going.

You know game devs, if there’s one thing we love more than making our own stuff it’s living vicariously through others, so share away and let’s see what everyone’s been up to!

    This is so pretty! Are the little capsules going to be people?

      Thanks! Yep, I’ve been learning how to do AI navigation for the first time so currently they wander randomly around town. Including over bridges between hexes that are currently invisible and only exist in the code 😅

        Awesome! That does sound complicated though!

          Luckily gamedev Mastodon took pity on me and pointed me in the right direction for the nav stuff lol, I would definitely have been lost otherwise. Still, another thing checked off the “to learn before I’ll feel like a real game dev” list! 🙈
