Today was a bug-fixing day in Datten (Tag)! I fixed host ↔ client sync issues so debug bots now behave correctly for connected players. 🤖🎮 ro.grunna.com/projects/019... #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #Multiplayer #GDScript #BuildInPublic #MadeWithGodot #Devlog

New assets ✨ Domino Pack features 29 tiles in 5 different styles, they're public domain (CC0) so you can use them in whatever project you wish. Vector included too! kenney.nl/assets/domin...

I accidentally discovered a new way to travel in DATTEN: surfing on another player’s head. Probably not the best strategy, but definitely one of the funniest. 😄 ro.grunna.com/projects/019... #DATTEN #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #MadeWithGodot #screenshotsaturday

Sometimes game development goes exactly as planned… and sometimes your character’s head becomes a rubber band. 😅 I only wanted smooth head tracking. Game development is fun! ro.grunna.com/projects/019... #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #MadeWithGodot #DATTEN #WIP #GameDevHumor #GameAnimation

DATTEN movement is getting smoother! I added an AnimationTree with blended transitions between animations, and players now turn toward the direction they are looking. Follow development: ro.grunna.com/projects/019... #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #MadeWithGodot

Today in Datten (Tag) I improved the bots so I can clearly see how they move through the navmesh and verify that pathfinding works as intended. I also fixed several bugs and made a bunch of smaller improvements. #BuildInPublic #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot #MadeWithGodot #GDScript #Multiplayer #Devlog

Fixed a few bugs and improved the feel of tagging in Datten. The core gameplay now works, so the next phase is all about polish—better visuals, effects, sound, and presentation! 🎮✨ #ScreenshotSaturday #BuildInPublic #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot #MadeWithGodot #GDScript #Multiplayer #Devlog

Added more debug information to Datten (Tag), making it much easier to see what the bots are doing and track down problems during testing. It’s not pretty, but it’s very useful! 🐞🤖🎮 #BuildInPublic #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot #MadeWithGodot #GDScript #Multiplayer #Debugging #GameAI #Devlog

I’ve added debug bots to Datten (Tag)! They’re definitely not smart yet, but they’re already useful for testing rounds, tagging, movement, and multiplayer systems when no other players are around. 🤖🎮 #Datten #BuildInPublic #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot #MadeWithGodot #GDScript #Multiplayer

Running around in the first real map for Datten (Tag)! The layout is finally playable—next up is better lighting and more props to make it feel lively, fun, and full of character. 🎮🏰 #Datten #BuildInPublic #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot #MadeWithGodot #Multiplayer #Devlog #GameDevelopment

Today I’ve only been working on a new map for Datten (Tag). Level design takes a lot longer than expected, but it’s incredibly fun seeing the map slowly come together! 🏰🎮 #BuildInPublic #IndieGame #GameDev #IndieDev #Godot #MadeWithGodot #LevelDesign #Multiplayer #GDScript #Devlog

Today I added a ready room where players step into the center to show they’re ready to start. I also playtested with my kids—and they had so much fun they wanted to keep playing! 🎮 #Godot #IndieDev #GameDev #Multiplayer #GDScript #MadeWithGodot #buildinpublic #screenshotsaturday

Today’s Datten progress: cleaned up the in-game UI to make it easier to understand at a glance. Less debug clutter, clearer role messages, sprint info, and a more player-friendly HUD for the first home playtests. #Godot #GDScript #GameDev #IndieDev #Multiplayer #buildinpublic #Grunna

Today’s progress: player names above characters, random spawns, random tagger selection, 5s start delay, round restart, winner/score display, plus proper tagger reset and speed reset.Small but solid steps toward a 3D multiplayer tag/raid game in Godot #Godot #GameDev #IndieDev #Multiplayer #GDScript

I’ve started building a simple multiplayer tag game in Godot. One player is “it”, everyone else runs. Tag someone, pass it on, repeat. Very early prototype. #MadeWithGodot #GameDev #IndieDev #IndieGameDev #Multiplayer #OnlineGame #Prototype #WIP #3DGame #LowPoly

I’m building an open chat/voice app for small groups like family and friends. It’s designed to be easy to install, self-host, and keep your conversations close to the people you trust. Read more: ro.grunna.com/projects/019... #OpenSource #SelfHosted #ChatApp #VoiceChat #IndieDev #SmallCommunities

Small milestone: I submitted my Anycubic Kobra X LAN integration for HACS review 🎉 It started as “can I read printer status locally?” and became a Home Assistant integration with MQTT, temps, fans and light. Local control, no cloud required. github.com/grunna/ha-an...
