I create games, music, and sometimes even visuals.
From time to time I participate in game jams.
I am currently creating my own blog/portfolio website. CSS has become a lot nicer since I last actively used it (about 10-15 years ago?).
I added a theme-switcher (light/dark as well as high/normal contrast) into my navbar.
To webdevs: Is this a good place to put it? Are there any common design languages I should be aware of for such things?
I already read the browser preference but want the user to be able to override it easily :)
most difficult things in #gamedev :
doors, stairs and ladders
SAVE THE DATE! The first Godot Camp Karlsruhe will happen on May 24th and 25th in Karlsruhe.
This will be a bar camp, i.e. the topics will be set by YOU. Two days full of new insights, exchange and new connections around our beloved #godotengine! Stay tuned for more information. #godot #karlsruhe
Ubisoft recently open sourced their colorblindess simulation tool "Chroma" (https://github.com/ubisoft/Chroma).
Well, here is a Godot Plugin version (Editor + In-Game) to make the world more accessible.

(Note: Even though I licensed my code under MIT, the shader code is taken from the Ubisoft project and thus technically Apache 2.0)
Game dev tip. Find your local community.
In Ottawa we have little meetups and those connections help a lot.
Your local game dev community will.
- Give you advice and motivation.
- Test for you.
- Engage with your posts.
- Connect you with journalists and consoles.
- Tell you about big events in your region.
- Show you some cool games.
@LucaVazz cool!
this looks like a flavor / odor profile, right?
I worked on this topic recently, but struggled trying to represent flavors with icons
Wouldn't it be nice if #godot had one single Container node with properties like margin (top, bottom, left, right), orientation (vertical, horizontal), center (boolean), etc., instead of having so many container nodes?
a new kid on the block:
the rhein-main area has an official godot user group now 🥳
@memoriesin8bit I just had to try it.
The kde implementation is indeed good, but I'm not sure if I'll like this more.
The thing I'm looking for is a fast alternative to the slow scroll wheel. And the automatic=hands free scrolling is great as well
@memoriesin8bit e.. even better?
I'll try this as soon as I plug a mouse in the laptop where I've just recently setup a distro with kde
@memoriesin8bit I don't understand why I see almost nobody doing this
@tracefree for I moment, I thought he finds out that the new, "4th" view is the game tab
@LucaVazz thanks!
the idea is to use this for a frankfurt-based godot user group
*someone* combined the godot icon with a bembel
Asking devs that have somewhat recent jobseeking experience:
Do you think being a generalist makes it harder to actually get accepted for a job?
I've been applying to a handful of jobs but either get rejected right out or didn't hear back after a few weeks...
Not sure if it's because of my generalist skills (no super in-depth knowledge of any one topic) or if it's just the recent job market (in Germany at least).
The Godot User Group Austria was formed in Vienna! 🎉
They are meeting at Metalab, one of the oldest and most famous hackspaces in Europe! 🚀

For our GWJ78 entry, I've worked a bit more on the audio part.
This is the submission: https://travh98.itch.io/mall-crush
It was really interesting to catch a glimpse of the synthetic bird sound rabbit hole 👀
