Tommy van Son ✔<p>Progress on my Civilization simulator. The map knows where roads and irrigation are and is able to connect the roads. And by the sweat of my brow, the units finally understand when they can move or do something. Because it's not obvious to them that irrigation takes three turns and roads just 2.<br><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GameDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GameDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/IndieDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IndieDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Love2d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Love2d</span></a></p>

Tommy van Son ✔<p>I just distributed my code of last Saturday plus some more, from one to 10 different files and now it's more readable and maintainable. Because the more files, it seems, the less complex.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/GameDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GameDev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Love2d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Love2d</span></a></p>

Tommy van Son ✔<p>The first hour and a half of progress for my game. I'm planning on it to be a turn based simulation game about running the minutia in an ancient Mesopotamian civilisation.all it does not is have this grid and logic to have the AAA graphics move horizontally, vertically and most impressively, diagonally (with my programmer art and historian math involved) <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/ScreenshotSaturday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScreenshotSaturday</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/Love2d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Love2d</span></a></p>
Luis<p>I made it with <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/L%C3%B6ve2D" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Löve2D</span></a>. Told gpt I wanted to render the whole game in a canvas (like a rendertexture) so I could easily scale it all. That it solved perfectly. And favor composition over inheritance.</p><p>Soon I had generic entities and could create specific entities with their own components and behaviors (input controlled for player and the asteroid thing that just flies in a straight line). No magic here, I told it what to do at each step. It got the idea and initial code was ok(ish)</p>
matt sephton<p>Feels good to have the systems in place so that adding a new feature like this is just a few lines of code <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/aquaplane" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aquaplane</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/love2d" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>love2d</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/indiedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>indiedev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gamedev</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/moses" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>moses</span></a></p>
matt sephton<p>All graphics in <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/aquaplane" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>aquaplane</span></a> are created using only shapes (line, rect, circle, polygon) an approach I used in my game <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/YOYOZO" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>YOYOZO</span></a> (GOTY 2023, remember?)</p><p>So I figured I'd keep on with the synthesised shtick and generate all the sound effects.
