In 2 hours is starting. I won't be competing this time, but always enjoy tuning into participating streams on twitch πŸ–₯️

@taranion Yeah I definitely want to keep it fun. I am only working part-time on games whilst my main job funds my living expenses.

Might spend this weekend on a new prototype without feeling guilty πŸ˜…

Question for
I currently have a big main project going. It's fun working on it and I plan to finish this project
... but do you think it's fine to work on other side projects and create prototypes for them? Or is this simply wasted time?

What are your thoughts?

My indie game Bots & Mods now has 3 gangs and a reputation system to unlock new items and perks.
Who knew that running a robot shop would involve gangs?

Wishlist if you haven't, it helps a ton!

@eternal_skies_tcg Great choice. Can't go wrong with a little sparkle ✨

Which gang would you align yourself with, based on looks only? And who are you mostly likely going to screw over?

On a side note, I am really enjoying implementing the gangs to my crafting and shop keeping game πŸ€–

I like the syndicate system in

It's nice seeing this in action and affirms my decision to have something similar in my own gameπŸ€–

It's always a great feeling when I fix a bug in the first 5 minutes the next day, when I couldn't fix it for hours previously πŸ˜…

Hi
wanted to share this before and after of the art of a mini game in Bots & Mods πŸ€–
As a programmer, I am really glad how this improved. (thanks to tips from an artist)

@russmatney More mini games. Got it! πŸ‘ πŸ€– πŸ˜†

2024-04-19

@azrhyga Thank you. It's simple enough to not be annoying. Inspired by Lego Harry Potter and Hogwarts Legacy.

This type of mini game seemed right for this machine where you "design" robot parts πŸ€–

Yo
Added another mini game to my robot crafting/automation shop game.

How many mini games is too many?

2024-04-17

Been working hard on Bots & Mods. Lately I have added some mini games. Some people don't like them too much, so I reckon after a few runs they won't appear anymore. For those that like them, they will be able to keep them via a menu setting πŸ€–πŸ€£

2024-04-06

Got nothing big/noteworthy to show for but it's great to add a little "game juice" throughout the game. Some particles, idle animations and bug fixes really make it feel more alive πŸ€– πŸŽ‰
