In Godot 4.7, you can now enable one-way collisions! These are especially useful for collision shapes that are moving and rotating at the same time, allowing a character or item to stay on top of a platform without falling through. #godot #gamedev #tipthursday #godotengine

Finally getting started with Pokeopia! It feels like a lot of the player feedback from ACNH was taken to heart in this game.
How is it that I had a better conversation with a stranger on the bus than 90% of men I’ve met on Grindr? We even exchanged numbers and continued the conversation lmao

In Godot 4.6, you can rotate sprites as you place them in a tile map! The rotation buttons near tile selection (or their associated hot keys) are ways to do this internal to Godot without needing to import pre-rotated sprites. #godotengine #gamedev #godot #tipthursday
I just learned this, but apparently you can pin your favorite properties in Godot! Just right-click and it'll be kept at the top of the inspector for convenient, easy access. #godotengine #gamedev #tipthursday #godot
Godot has a couple different fog options you can choose from: Exponential fog is the default option and is more true to life, but density-based fog lets you customize where the fog begins and ends to create stylized environments! docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/tu... #godot #gamedev #godotengine
