<h1>Will start blogging about gamedev</h1>
<p>I’ve been wanting to get into gamedev for a while now, but it’s always a pain to stay consistent. I just recently started to get into it again, and this time I’m trying to actually do stuff.</p>
<p>So, the plan is to blog about my progress and clone some simple games just to get started. I’m thinking on sticking with <a href="https://godotengine.org/">Godot</a> just because I like that it’s open source, it’s getting better and better overtime (big rewrite happening right now) and I already like how the engine works. <del>Specifically I’ll start using <em>Godot 4</em> even though it’s not done yet, to get used to the new features, specifically pumped for <a href="https://godotengine.org/article/gdscript-progress-report-feature-complete-40">GDScript 2.0</a>.</del> <ins>Actually… (for the small clones/ripoffs) I’ll need to use <em>Godot 3.X</em> (probably 3.5), as <em>Godot 4</em> doesn’t have support to export to webassembly (HTML5) yet, and I want that to publish to <a href="https://itch.io/">itch.io</a> and my website. I’ll continue to use <em>Godot 4</em> for bigger projects, as they will take longer and I hope that by the time I need to publish, there’s no issues to export.</ins></p>
<p>For a moment I almost started a new subdomain just for gamedev stuff, but decided to just use a different directory for subtleness; this directory and use of tags should be enough. I’ll be posting the entry about the first rip-off I’m <em>developing</em> (FlappyBird L O L) shortly.</p>
<p><strong>Update</strong>: <a href="https://godotengine.org/article/godot-4-0-sets-sail/">Godot 4</a> already released and it now has HTML5 support, so back to the original plan.</p>
