Still trying to get better at Godot in my lunch breaks by making a short game. I had a play with the lighting, world environment adjustments and added some mist particles. I actually quite like how it's looking now (even with placeholder assets).

I make video games. Full time programmer by day and working on all aspects of my own projects the rest of the time. My latest release is the revamped version of my puzzley platformer The Top Hat Club 🎩 https://thetophatclub.daviddurhamgames.com
To celebrate the rerelease I'm going to post some videos from early development! This is the earliest recorded footage with just the controls / movement idea for mobile

A while back we had the wonderful opportunity to pitch a Red Dwarf adventure game directly to Doug Naylor himself. While the project didn't end up going ahead, we're now free to share some of the work we produced for the pitch!
I've been quietly developing a new web game platform for the last year, with my friend @bjornithopter.bsky.social. This week, we're announcing it's called Player Galaxy (previously PlayFly). I wrote a bit about our history and goals here, and what's next: www.playergalaxy.com/news/feed?it...

Learning Godot in my lunch breaks, I was very happy to find the 'Open Dominant Script on Scene Change' setting - as I was getting muddled when switching between scenes and not seeing associated script. I get why it's not the default, but it works for my brain 🙂 #godot

Played TR-49 today. I’ve seen a lot of people say they finished it in one sitting, but I couldn’t find the time for that. However, I really enjoyed the hour or so I spent with it today while it was dark and rainy outside.
New for this year's festive family viewing of Home Alone - all the kids immediately went crazy when John Candy said 6-7
The nativity has a lot fewer wacky japes than you’d expect from a story about a baby king.
I have a plaster/bandaid on my thumb so I can't easily scroll on a touch screen... I think I may have stumbled upon a pretty good productivity hack.

For a while I’ve been occasionally tinkering with this solitaire inspired game. It’s like Beleaguered Castle, but with special cards and levels. I’m trying to decide if making each level look like an overhead diagram of a castle looks good or not. #gamedev #solodev #screenshotsaturday

Trying to book a family holiday, and reading reviews where people use “AI” as shorthand for “all inclusive” is very jarring (and took me a shockingly long time to work out what they were talking about 😅) e.g. “ice cream available with AI”.
