Here’s a tutorial on how to create breakable objects in Blender and Godot. It covers the steps needed to design and implement breakable objects, including scripting and using physics properties to make objects break apart into smaller pieces upon collision or other interactions.
One of the benefits of working with Godot Engine is that GDScript allows one to operate high level. GDScript is dynamically typed, so not even variable types have to be specified, but I would strongly recommend using static typing wherever possible. It can help with performance but primarily adds clarity when trying to follow the …
Development snapshot #4 of Godot Engine 4.1 is here. Among many other changes, it fixes a lighting issue related to using Light-only mode in CanvasItemMaterial (#44559). Unfortunately, it also introduced a UX issue with gradient color pickers (#77745), which makes it quite difficult to work with gradients at all. If you use gradients, I recommend …
When I think of video games, I generally still think of an application that is downloaded and runs on the client. Technically, that’s still the case with web-based exports from Godot Engine, since the web browser has to download the files before being able to run them. I thought maybe I could just run the …
