〔they/them〕sometimes when i make something that looks cool, i'll upload a picture or video of it here i want to marry 3d platformers ALL MY SOCIALS HERE: https://someran.dev/links
cloth physics are a prank engineered by game engine developers to waste my time specifically
Aww yeesh, it's been 2 months? I need to post here more. 😩 Non-stop gamedev grind starting TODAY. To finish off the 3D subtitles renderer saga, here's the first short I posted using them (and also check out my epic multi-platform content redirector): shorts.someran.dev/3
Blender PRO-TIP I learned working on my game!
Watch on YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram!

working on a 3d subtitles renderer because i hate my free time and have brainworms crawling in my arms (they already emptied my skull months ago)
yesterday I finished up the first iteration of my chatter "joining" intro for my Twitch interface I created in #godot
![An image that demonstrates the structure of a "syntax" declaration.
Its content is:
syntax [SYNTAX_NAME]:

[SYNTAX_PATTERN_1]

So the programming language I'm working on is named "SillyScript". It's intended for scripting scenes in my games by generating JSON that the game interprets. It's technically more of a markup-language disguised as a traditional coding language. #coding #gamedev #dev #programminglanguage

Oh hey! Shout-out to a year ago when I would post almost daily. 😶🌫️ The October vibes are HITTIN, so I'm going to try daily posting my gamedev shenanigans again. Let's see if I can keep it up for the rest of the year. Please bear with me this first week as I finish making my programming language. 😅
LOOOL GG we absolutely not making it by Next Fest. LIFE TRYING TO STOP ME FROM MAKING ART BUT I WONT LET IT AAAHGH Anywho check out this sick af NPC dialogue thingy I made + tutorial wall of spears. I'm really happy with how my blender animation skills have improved ^^ #indiegamedev #godot #3d
BIIIIG PROGRESS: added doors. 16 days until Next Fest... #gamedev #roguelike #godot
Okay!! It maaaay seem like I haven't done much, BUT I wrote Steam descriptions, got page prepped, website/email registered. Bunch of small stuff I needed to get out of the way. + Finished FOUR environments for demo; some still need unique decor. 17 days until Next Fest... #indiegamedev #godot #3d
Added system for various decor objects like rocks and tall-grass (or seaweed for underwater world). Helps make the world look a little more alive! :D Still need to give them proper particles upon destruction. 20 days until Next Fest... #indiegamedev #godot #3d #roguelike
Sorry for no posts for the past monthish! Got burnt out; shouldn't have given myself crazy artificial deadlines. 💀 Still shooting to release the roguelike demo for Next Fest! Made some pretty good progress, so let's return to daily devlogs! 21 days until Next Fest... #indiegamedev #godot #3d
😎 Day 3.5/7 of Steam Demo Game Dev bruh ive been so busy with non-gamedev stuff past couple days. no progress, very sadj. since it's snowing, im calling them snow days and they dont count cool? cool. also fuck sharks, i like magic aesthetic so switching game's character to witch you cannot stop me
🪄 Day 2/7 of Steam Demo Game Dev The features I want to finish by day 7 are: * Skill making system (from randomly found components) * Random passive ability pickups * Overworld traversal system Was busy today, but got some progress on a skill-making menu: #indiegamedev #godot #ux #2d #menu
♻️ Day 1/7 of Steam Demo Game Dev One of the core issues with Codfather was the fact all turns ran simultaneously, making it difficult to determine turn order + why certain attacks missed (AND caused TONS of painful, overlapping sound effects). (1/2) #indiegamedev #godot #indiedev #roguelike #3d
SOME_RAN_DEV@someran.dev · 2y agoNew year new me. My goal was for Steam demo/page of Teleport Man out by Feb. Next Fest, but that's not happening. I enjoy Codfather development, so let's see if I can finish+release it as Steam game in 1 month. I'll allot 1 week to make Steam demo I like, if I hate it, I drop & don't look back. 😏

GOT 2ND PLACE. It was a small jam, so I was shooting for 1st, but the game that got 1st was actually pretty hype (and my game had a bug that made it unbeatable) so I suppoooose I shall accept this outcome. NEXT TIME WE WIN THO. #gamedev #gamejam #godot #haxe
SOME_RAN_DEV@someran.dev · 2y ago🎀 Day 8/8 of Daily Game Jam Devlogs AAAND on final day I added sound effects, multiple enemy behaviors, & projectiles. There's A LOT I wasn't able to do, but at least I have something that feels like a game. XD You can play it here! itch.io/jam/haxejam-... #gamedev #godot #3d #roguelike #lowpoly

SOME_RAN_DEV@someran.dev · 2y ago🐟 Day 7/8 of Daily Game Jam Devlogs OOOF was so focused I didn't post the final days 😩 Day 7 was spent making the tutorial area w/ readable signs AND finally implementing the rest of the UI. Built custom maps from reading pixels on Aseprite images. 😅 #indiegamedev #godot #indiedev #3d #lowpoly

Species dictates your default skill, and class dictates your base stats (unimplemented ;^_^) AND YES I KNOW WHALE SHARKS HAVE SPOTS I LOVE THEM BUT I DONT HAVE TIME IM SORRY #indiegamedev #sharks #art #3d #godot

SOME_RAN_DEV@someran.dev · 2y ago⚔️ Day 4/8 of Daily Game Jam Devlogs UNFORTUNATELY due to unforeseen reasons (christmas), I was unable to make BEEG progress, but I do some stuff. Attack system + turn process. Faster enemies can move before you attack OR take your spot before you get to it. #indiegamedev #3d #godot #rougelike
