Well, that track's lookin' alright. At least alright enough to toss gameplay bullshit at it, I suppose.

[fontesdev]

Messin' a bit more with controlling that dummy. Added a bit of a lean when turning, and been playing a bit with inverse kinematics. Those'll be useful to keep them hands on that steering wheel innit.

Does this guy need full platformer controls? Probably not. Is it detrimental for what I need of him? Not really. Figuring out ledge-grabbing was easier than I expected, though!

I was a dumbass and was relying on the leg bones to move that skirt which worked as well as you'd think, so decided to fix it before I made more of these. Might tweak that animation some more, but it'll do for now at least.

When you're messing with #godot to learn heightmap terrain and end up cobbling together a day/night cycle in there because I dunno, thought it'd be funny! #gamedev #indiedev

Some Boomguy dude I needlessly made for a thing, I dunno.

Better Keeb

A more presentable version of that 3d-printed mechanical keyboard I did a while ago. Now with 100% more numpad! Not enough of that in the mech keeb scene! First time giving ortholinear keys a go, this... will take a bit of getting used to lol

Doin' one of them boards with keys

Yay, finally made a custom mechanical keyboard!... and it tiny lol

Visually it's still very WIP, but the function's all there (everything mentioned in the legends works). I'll be daily-driving this for a while, see how it feels and think about a final look for it.

The outer case is definitely getting redone, but the keycaps feel pretty final aside from how I'll handle the legends, engraved instead of... well, sharpie I guess.

ayo it my shit, go take a looksie!

[fontesdev]

First time messing with e-paper, of course it's gonna be some Hola Mundo thingy lol

[fontesdev]

If this ain't the tiniest dpad in the world it's gotta be close, right?

Chonky Watchy

Got myself a Watchy (v2.0 clone off Aliexpress) and slapped a 803040 1000mah battery on it for the lols, so designed a shell and strap for it. Also uploaded it to Thingiverse if anyone else with one of these wants to make one: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6971561

Started printing with flexibles, so made a new phone case. Not only looks subjectively alright, the slits in the back let me hook in my amp (velcro got annoying after a while). Let's see how this holds long-term.

Omnompad

When you're sick as shit but can't stay forever in bed so you finally learn to wire a key matrix. As well as do something with these lil limit switch adapters I made recently. I should try to make a full board with these lil thingies.

[fontesdev]

Pushing them buttons

Wanted a way to easily fit those tiny switches on projects, so that'll do. These suck for typing (too heavy), but will do quite nicely on a macro pad or a controller!

[fontesdev]

Deez pads again

Some more design tweaks to this d-pad module, sanded down the parts so there's no scratchiness from the print layer lines, and if that dummy handle I made simply to test the tactility with a proper grip doesn't mean this is actually feeling pretty alright, then I dunno. S'lookin' alright!

[fontesdev]

Deez Pads

Surprised I didn't do one of these sooner. Meant to be tacked on as a module, because everything's better with a d-pad!

Still needs some tweaks, but as-is I sure would use it over a lot of current-day offerings lol
