#hivetime — Public Fediverse posts

This week's #Blendsday prompt is "honey." I made this #HiveTime Queen holding a dollop of honey.

I remain uncomfortable with the current situation/lack of progress regarding the Blender Foundation's Funding Policy and AI Policy following accepting money from Athropic, and feel a need to acknowledge that when sharing stuff that promotes Blender.

Happy belated #WorldBeeDay \o/

Here's a little #HiveTime patch with a couple new interface settings 🌏 🐝 📅

Been working on some small optimisation efforts for the upcoming #HiveTime patch for World Bee Day later this month. I've managed to make some noticeable improvements on my 2.5k bee test hive by switching some animations to use root motion (from 6 - 8 fps up to 16 - 20 fps).

Had some fun times discovering that armature animation transform keys are in different coordinate space to node animation transform keys, but I think it's all behaving now.

#HiveTime turns 4 today! To celebrate, here's a little patch that adds an in-game music player, and a new chat command. Enjoy! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #bees

Been working on a little something for #HiveTime's birthday tomorrow. It really whips the larva's arse.

I have a soft spot for the #Godot game engine ever since the release of the #SimCity-like game of bee hives, #HiveTime:

Doing some more #HiveTime dev for the upcoming World Bee Day patch! https://twitch.tv/valiantcheese

It's probably not as exciting to anyone else as it is to me, but the change I'm most excited about in #HiveTime's upcoming World Bee Day patch is a little loading animation (decoupling the menu->game transition properly took a bit of effort thanks to hastily made jam-era decisions)
