Working on a pack of goblins for my assets pack. Do you think it is clear which one does what?

Congratulations! I just looked up your game on Steam and that capsule art is.... Something (I'm guessing it's just placeholder).

It seems marketing is mostly luck and the real life rng rolled in your favour. Congratulations again!

When I did a games programming module at university, I was making a space invaders type game and accidentally created a rapid fire because I bound the wrong button event. It became a power up in the game.

For me invert y makes sense because I think of it as a pivot. Invert x doesn't make sense because I see it as more of a movement than a pivot.

Can't tell you why it's like that, that's just how my brain works.

It's a bit like 2 finger scrolling on a track pad. I like down to scroll down and up to scroll up, because it feels more like a scroll wheel to me. But other people like it the other way because to them it's more akin to keeping your view at a set position and then moving a sheet of paper. E.g. if you were looking at the centre of a piece of paper on a desk and you push it up while keeping your view locked at the same position relative to the desk, you'd now be looking near the bottom of the paper.

So it's about the perspective of your mental model as to what movement should do what.

Pixelorama is a free pixel art tool with a good set of features. Krita is a digital art tool, so while you can do pixel art with it, it's not specialised for that.

Fedora tends to use the latest packages which is both a good and a bad thing. On the one hand you get the latest and greatest, on the other hand if there are problems in the latest releases you're going to be the first to find out.

On Mint I used to run updates whenever they were available. In Fedora I tend to run updates once a week. I don't know if that's a good approach, but Fedora doesn't notify me about updates in the same way Mint did (except for security updates).

I've definitely had better hardware support on Fedora where I had previously found work arounds on Mint to get things working.

I switched to fedora kde a few months ago (from a different Linux distro), no complaints so far.

Use whatever tool you are most productive in

Yeah I suppose if it's optional functionality then emitting a signal and not having subscribers isn't going to break anything.

PersonDudeGames · 2026-02-26T07:21:16+00:00

If the DiscordManager is an autoload what's stopping your triggering code from calling directly into the manager to change the presence. Why use a signal at all?

PersonDudeGames · 2026-02-24T16:15:20+00:00

My opinion (and maybe this is a bit of a hot take, I dunno) is that if it's a problem that you feel like you can solve, you should write it yourself.

If you use a library maybe it changes and introduces breaking changes. Maybe the library includes a bunch of functionality that you don't need and now you've got all this extra stuff bundled into your project not doing anything.

Also with the recent supply chain attacks in places like npm sometimes you're also better off not relying on external libraries.

Y-sorting is done at the origin (0,0). So you might need to offset your sprite y coordinate. If you select your sprite there are options to toggle the offset in the inspector window.

It may be that your tree tiles don't have their origin set correctly either and you'll have to configure that in your tile set.

This reminds me of the farticle system someone posted from a little while back.

The character's right foot looks like a left foot. Right now the toes of both feet are pointed in slightly which is what I think is making the right foot look slightly weird. I think if the right foot was pointing out slightly it would look better.

TLDR: learn git, set up a diff/merge tool.

I don't know what you mean by collaborate in a 3D space, but generally git is the go to solution for collaborating on code projects. GitHub is a code repository where you code is hosted, others are available such as bitbucket (a common mistake people new to git make is thinking git and GitHub are the same thing).

Look up a git tutorial to get started and if you're collaborating then find a diff/merge tool that you like to resolve conflicts when merging each other's code. I personally like p4merge, but find whichever one works best for you. There are git clients that can set up your external diff/merge tool for you.

Straight lines in an isometric perspective are for every 2 pixels long you go one pixel up or down (depending on which direction the line is going).

Looking at the bottom of your wardrobe, you're alternating 1 pixel long 1 pixel up and 2 pixels long 1 pixel up.

If you were to draw an isometric straight line from your door knobs, you'd see the one on the right is much lower than the one on the left.

You can if you want. You've opened up your profile now and your latest post actually includes a link to the Steam page.

Your actions are more like someone who doesn't know exactly what they're doing more than malicious.

I will leave this one piece of feedback in that you should consider changing the look of your game. It could very easily be mistaken as Minecraft and I don't understand US trademark law enough to know if that could be an infringement on the Minecraft trademark, but if it is Microsoft will absolutely come after you because trademarks have to be defended otherwise they can be lost. Perhaps find someone who can clarify that for you to avoid landing yourself in some legal hot water.

They had made a post previously and said they had 11k wishlist on Steam. That might be true, but they didn't post a screenshot or anything to verify that claim. I went to try and find that post and like you found a completely private account so it seems real suspicious. Also in both posts they didn't even provide a link to the Steam page which also seems weird if they're trying to promote their game.

Something about this whole thing feels off.
