Latest Games and Projects

Wow, how time flies. I can't believe it's been a few months since my last post already.


I've been hard at work (ugh) as well as personal work on a few jam projects.

Sequinox - Malus's Curse was a full attempt to make an NES-Styled game in Godot. I had a lot of fun, and making something that could be enjoyed by a community had an appeal.

Slurp was made for the returning Dogpit Jam. It was great fun, I made a puzzle game that the judge was able to finish on stream!


I also made a level that a lot of people got stuck on, then when they saw the answer gave me 'the look'. That was quite nice!

I used Super Low Poly Rat Jam to learn more about Godot and 3D. It's still a lot of work, even for a small game.


Expect the site to be updated with the project pages soon!

Godot Tip ｢Tile Collision With Tilemap and a Physics Body｣

Posted by SysL, on January 24, 2025. [Link]

This is how you can detect what tiles you are colliding with when using a Physics Body.

extends Node2D

@export var area: Area2D
@export var map: TileMap

func _ready():
area.body_shape_entered.connect(area_entered)

func area_entered(_body_rid: RID, _body: Node2D, _body_shape_index: int, _local_shape_index: int):
map.erase_cell(0,map.get_coords_for_body_rid(_body_rid))

Godot Weird Problem：Viewport Texture Error with Model

Posted by SysL, on January 23, 2025. [Link]

In Godot, if you set a ViewPort Texture directly on a Material Albedo you will receive a warning when running your game from the editor. This error appears to be harmless in game but it is annoying.

To work around it, you can set it in code:

  1. Grab a reference to the mesh
  2. Grab a reference to the viewport/subviewport
  3. In the _ready() callback, set the texture.


@onready var mesh_instance_3d: MeshInstance3D = $MeshInstance3D
@onready var sub_viewport: SubViewport = $SubViewport

func _ready() -> void:
mesh_instance_3d.get_surface_override_material(0).albedo_texture = sub_viewport.get_texture()


This is not likely to be fixed anytime soon, it's been open since 2022...

Godot Tip ｢Game-Isometric Camera｣

Posted by SysL, on January 23, 2025. [Link]

Using Node: Camera3D

  1. Projection: Orthogonal
  2. Rotation: -30, 45, 0 (XYZ)
  3. Size: 8M-10M (Based on Pixel Size)
  4. Far: 200M (Fixes issues with Orthogonal Shadows) [Calinou, Godot Issue 58332, Feb 19, 2022]


Quick Code Note for Camera (You may have to rotate input):

var direction := (Vector3(input_dir.x, 0, input_dir.y)).rotated(Vector3.UP, main_camera.rotation.y).normalized()

Godot Weird Problem：Audio Bus Names Not Working

Posted by SysL, on January 23, 2025. [Link]

I've had this issue where the Audio Busses defined would not load on project start up OR they would load but the names would not work. To fix it, I had to do the following:

  1. Save out your Bus Configuration
  2. Open the General Settings
  3. Open Audio -> Buses
  4. Set the Default Bus Layout
