Board game development is incredibly complex. To create a board game from start to finish , think of everything you have to do: Come up with a board game idea and design a game around it. Create rules and mechanics that help you express your idea in the best way possible. Play-test the game until it feels right. Find artists. Create digital print files of your game.

As promised in my previous post, the core refactoring work I am undertaking took two months to complete. This means rewriting large parts of the core engine for consistency and features. Core refactoring. Core refactoring is mostly work on the most low level, critical and shared parts of the engine. This work is done only on major versions because it implies breaking compatibility and introducing instability and bugs (because of all the new added code), which is actually the case right now.

After 15 years of defeating one apocalypse after another, Sam and Dean are finally taken down by a real one. With only two episodes left in the 15 year run of the series, production has been shut down due to CORVID-19. Two episodes! Supernatural has been one of my guilty pleasures for two episodes shy of 15 years. My guess is they will turn it in to a crappy comic book for the final two episodes.

Almost two years ago today, I launched a Kickstarter campaign for a board game called Highways & Byways. It was a deeply personal project for which I had high hopes. When it wound up being just another failed Kickstarter campaign, it hurt badly. I learned a lot from that experience. From it, I went on to write Why the Highways & Byways Kickstarter Campaign Crashed & Burned , which remains one of the most popular posts on this blog, even two years later.

To get the Start to Finish series going, I’ve spent some time discussing games, game development, and the amount of careful messaging that is needed to create and sell a great game. At this point, you may be beginning to have some healthy doubts about the benefits and drawbacks of self-publishing a game. After all, if you self-publish, you are responsible all these decisions and their results!

Many of you know that I’m in love with Tabletop Simulator as a testing tool. It’s a simple app on the Steam store, it costs $19.99, and it’s been an extraordinary resource for me during the development of War Co. , Highways & Byways, and Tasty Humans.

Update (2020-03-24): The API has updated a little bit to reflect a problem explained in this pull request. Update (2021-10-28): You can find a documentation page about Sky shaders in the Godot documentation. A common problem facing users in Godot 3.x was the inability to create dynamic skies that update in real time. We aim to change that by introducing sky shaders.

Our current stable version, Godot 3.2, was released at the end of January as a major upgrade to all features and the usability of the engine. But as with any software release, there are always things that can still be improved and bugs that can be fixed, and as such we plan to release frequent maintenance releases for the 3.2 branch, to make it ever more enjoyable and reliable to work with.

Time flies and it's already close to two weeks since our first release candidate for the upcoming Godot 3.2.1, which will be a maintenance update focusing on bug fixes for Godot 3.2 users. I planned to have 3.2.1-stable already released by now, but I was sidetracked by the refactoring work which is happening in the master branch for Godot 4.0 :-). Since RC 1, a couple regressions have been fixed, and a few additional bug fixes, documentation updates and usability enhancements have been included.

Speaking with a friend the other day and I was talking about how being confided to my house doesn't really change my life or my work too much. I suppose that a sad reflection on my life. I just don't go out much. I'm a life-long introvert, so I don't crave the company of groups or a wild social life. I have a few very close friends and we continue to talk.
