Convention over Configuration: A Game Development Superpower?
In this short video I discuss the power of convention over configuration as I speed through my workflow for creating a game asset in Blender and Substance Painter and getting it into Godot 4.1.
My game is The Secrets of Skellig. You can wishlist it now on Steam:
store.steampowered.com/app/2528340/The_Secrets_of_Skellig/
Here's the Python script I use in Blender. It's not drop in ready but you can see how it works:
gist.github.com/eviltrout/c33ed2d0d20089d392d7e6661a36e174
Here's the scene importer for Godot to automatically wire up materials:
gist.github.com/eviltrout/09cd1a450ead954aca8b389d94960ab6
The wikipedia article on Convention over Configuration is worth checking out:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convention_over_configuration
The music in this video is "Lord Of The Dawn" by Jesse Gallagher.

I've been maintaining this role-playing game for 15 years!
zhlédnutí 1,8KPřed rokem
I've always hated that most people let their old websites projects die. Forumwarz is a web game I developed with my friends (and the help of many, many others) back in 2008, and I still put in the work to make sure it runs smoothly today. This video is part retrospective on the game, but also partially a plea to others to maintain their old projects. You can still play Forumwarz today: www.foru...

I remastered my 30 year-old DOS game!
zhlédnutí 28KPřed 2 lety
A streamer reminded me of a game I coded in Quickbasic when I was 13 years old. 30 years later, I rolled up my sleeves and tried to see if I could do better. My journey took me through pallete scrolling, assembly language coding in DOS Box, and finally into Godot for a modern remake. The full source code for everything in this video is here: github.com/eviltrout/nightmares The background music ...
How classic Sierra game graphics worked (and an attempt to upscale them)
zhlédnutí 230KPřed 2 lety
