Indie #gamedev Developer working with a rag-tag crew

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

Yo! Right now I'm prototyping an interactive narrative game inspired by fables (like Aesops) in a low fantasy setting

You are a little mouse in a big world, can you survive the Heros Journey?

🚧prototyping how I want menus to look and feel

always made in #godot #GodotEngine #indiedev

just a quick 4am video of prototype progress, featuring:
- NPCs with goals
- world barks
- quest / dialogue (built in editor)
- pickupable objects (green)

lots of neat things going on here under the hood

@MaartenBicknese Looks nice!

integrating a dialogue editor in #godotengine 💬(as is tradition) for use in my project #gamedev #indiedev

pretty heavily based on Whiskers🐭, a tool I released in 2019

playing around with independent interior lighting in #godotengine, what do you think #gamedev\s? #indiedev

WIP 🚧early generic network sync in #godotengine #gamedev

@codecatt looks very smooth ⛵

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

built some #gamedev prototype tools and now building some prototype editors to manage 'em in #GodotEngine

depending on scale changes, i may convert the data structures to sql vs flat-file (but keeping the visual layout and feel cause i dig it)

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

@patrick_exe Definitely something I can tweak to make look and function better on smaller screens, thank you for reporting!

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

hey #godotengine, I created an Open Source AGPLv3 #godot asset library mirror, what do you think? https://t.co/Mkj2Rr89oA

Some concerns I have:
- name is misleading
- solution in search of problem
- design doesn't match information we host

@StarlightSkyes I know lots of programmers who are neutral about programming but enjoy their work (and are good at it too)

Mindset plays a big role. We're not just solving problems, we're creating new things and crafting experiences

Programming is art, and like all art its highly subjective

@bobdotdev Very cute! What's their name?

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

@MightofMe that is BEAUTIFUL!

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

@_LastLegend @WoodstockPro love it! looks classic and modern at the same time, its a great blend!

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

@reduzio What you and the rest of the people making godot have done is quite the achievement. When Godot was your in-house engine, was the plan always to open source?

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

prototyping interruptable world dialogue 💬still figuring out how i want it to feel, but i like the direction its heading. what do you think? (font size inc. for twitter video)

Uh-oh, snowstorm? 🥶 (just playing around with different occluder shapes - not real snow ☃️)

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]

i like the idea of a narrator narrating key points of the story, like someone reading what a character says from a fable 🧝 what do you think? (audio + speech bubble sync up)

voice is Atlas from @ReplicaStudios

@VadimIgnatievCG The color scheme reminds me of Stålenhag. Just needs a weird robot thing off in the distance 🤖

[Little Mouse Games @LittleMouseDev]
