Jofer's Casual Game-Dev Diary <3

Day 22 This was a bit outside of my skill set and took a bit of learning, but yey. Dark souls style messaging now works remotely :D Next step is going to be allowing you to join peoples worlds and move about and see each other :) Going to take a little while because its quite a hefty task but im excited for it all to work :D
If i can get this done in time for demo day this would be perfect for a mini network test :D
-
Day 23 Multiplayer nearly works, hopefully 1 more day of ironing out rough edges then i can try and get invasions happening properly. :D
-
Day24 No progress today, just trying to get through matchmaking, i wrote what i planned and it just hangs on trying to connect so i gotta just put in some hours and figure out why :)
Hopefully its something simple :)
-
Day 25 Improved matchmaking a bit more, having trouble testing it, ordered a 3g dongle thing so i can try and connect from an external ip and this will hopefully speed up networking progress. (It should be here in 2 days) I also worked on my racetrack a bit more :)
-
Day26 got multiplayer across external networks working now :) this doesnt look like much but is a big weight off my mind :)
-
Probably gona swap to weekly after today :)
Want to try and make better quality videos :)
And hopefully i will have more to show :)
-
Day 33 Did some network testing with my parents :) One of the nicest moments of this project so far :)
-
-
Day 47 Got an annoying bug where clients see people floating, but i have a sick tablet for my ui now, pretty excited :D
-
Day 54: Shes finally got some clothes, and hair and eyelids, but theyre all broken haha :D
Ill get around to it asap :D
-
Day 61 After getting a lot of feedback that my player character was too scary i decided to try again
this was my original model
this was my attempt at improving
and this was me giving up and going full chibi :)
im really happy with how it turned out, and i hope other people are too :)

Took a few days off to enter a gamejam with my buddy @snekdev :)
It started off as a multiplayer feeding frenzy clone in 3d, and somehow spiralled into mermaids having fish babies and sharks trying to eat them :D
Its pretty jolly :P
-
Not dev progress, but i made some brownies since i knew i was going to be up late tonight and recorded it <3

Progress
Just a quick update on what I've been up to recently, other then the game jam I've been kind of radio silent. And its just because I've been busy with other commitments and I've been trying to make my art look less weird and I've been trying to learn to be a better developer :)I feel like the stuff I'm working on now is way better than stuff at the top of the thread, but it's all very rough and early
I'm hoping to knuckle down and focus just on mini golf for a bit over the next couple of weeks so I can get close to finishing something
Hopefully, I can make something jolly at the end of all this :)
That would be nice :D

This post is deleted!

Fleshed out the golf game from the last vid over the last week and a bit :)
It's kinda fun, going to try and start again and make it better :)
-
Haven't posted in a while, and just wanted to let people know I'm not dead, I'm just taking a break to try and improve :)
