Today, I have achieved a personal milestone: reaching 30 years of age! 🎂 Almost a third of it I spent being a #GodotEngine maintainer, and let me tell you: no regrets! 😎

A preview of my current #GodotEngine work: manipulation of 2D nodes in the Game view! 🪛 All changes here are happening at runtime.

Well, it finally happened! After 9 years of Unity dominance, Godot was the most used game engine for GMTK Game Jam 2026 submissions. 🤖 Godot - 47% 🎮 Unity - 34% 🛠️GameMaker - 5% 🚀 Unreal Engine - 3% ✨ Other - 11%

If you liked the `GridMap` improvements in #GodotEngine 4.7, you gonna love what has been prepared for the 4.8 release! 🔧 🧵: 1/4

The lack of nuance when talking about #AI on social media is exhausting. It seems to be either "if you don't use AI for everything you're a caveman" or "did you just ask a question to a LLM? DIE!". But then again, maybe it's on me for expecting nuance on social media to begin with.

RE: https://floss.social/@kde/116487444734779958 I genuinely believe that #FreeSoftware needs to give more love to cute mascots. And I think #KDE is the gold standard in the FOSS world.

I did promise that I was still working on it, so here it (finally) is: #Librerama 0.7.0! 🎉 3 new nanogames, a new "Quickplay" mode, improvements to gamepad and touch controls, and some other smaller stuff. https://yeldham.itch.io/librerama

E hoje a #LeiFelca entra em vigor. Infringindo a privacidade do cidadão em favor das big techs, e resolvendo em nada o que foi denunciado pelo video do Felca. 🤦‍♂️

The in-game editor is cool feature that I helped create in the #GodotEngine, but it has two big shortcomings: - It lacks features from its editor counterpart. - It duplicates existing code for the features it currently has. So I've started some work in order to fix those issues, by unifying the […]
