Here is a WIP of the Zelda 64-style camera targeting system. It needs improvement, but I'm really unsure as to how to go about fixing it 😅

The project is called Slayer64 and is being developed by WINDBREKER
:)

I'm pretty proud of what I've made so far! I've come a long way since first starting to learn Godot ^^

None of this could have been made without @keyschain's help! She is inseparably important!

made a very simple 2D Zelda-style camera. might work on it more as practice

I think I've reached a point where it's good enough and I can move on. I can't figure out how to get the "danger zone" flash animation working, but oh well, maybe in another 10 months I'll take another crack at it.

I'm not restarting the 3D Zelda project, but the broken health bar always bugged me, so I got to thinking about it more today and with a little perseverance I did it! It also works if you change the HP by amounts other than 1.

It's little moments like these that make me think that maybe game dev isn't impossible for me, just that it requires a lot of thinking, breaking concepts down into smaller tasks, and time away from problems.

No idea if it's gonna continue to work later on, but it works now!!!!

A very cool idea: developing an arcade game in Godot for a Raspberry Pi (or alternative), sticking that bad boy in an arcade cabinet.

Bonus points if it uses a CRT TV monitor.
