Sorry for load times -- A "live-service" shootemup that is always a work in progress and a sequel to a game I made for Shipwrecked (a previous hack club event.)
Final, Final version... 15+ hours of bug fixes and stability fixes... The codebase is made of gum and spit and tears.
Day 16... I everything c# based... took down old day 16 post
gave up on visual studio. Continuing transition to C#... I hate this!!+186-1607▶setting up jetbrains rider+36-8▶convert all gdscript based cursor rules to c#. Im not a vibecoder i swear!+5163-1▶heres the final gdscript based version! Have fun! Thanks for playing.
Now the C# conversion is somewhat working now i need to port more features one by one+352-20▶Day 15! Today I worked on making the game work with C#; but its taking a while, now im able to use Visual Studio performance monitoring features and better documentation. Heres a product key for Visual Studio Professional 2022: (TD244-P4NB7-YQ6XK-Y8MMM-YWV2J) Sorry for no sound I did it at a reasonable time so everybody was awake.
working on converting to c#
keep going with conversion+253-90▶Fix C# compilation errors: Dictionary.Get, MainLoop.Root, Node.Visible, ulong casts, SignalName issues+64-50▶Convert remaining core utilities to C#: ItemDropManager, SpriteManager, BulletPatterns+850-585▶Convert core utilities to C#: GameUtils, DifficultyConfig, RankManager+402-265▶Fix C# compilation errors: Dictionary GetValueOrDefault, Variant null comparisons, ulong to long casts, Node.Visible property access+53-29▶Add BUILD_INSTRUCTIONS.md with C# compilation steps+63▶Add C# project files (.csproj, .sln) and update .gitignore for C# artifacts+37-2▶Fix project.godot autoload paths and add new .cs.uid files+13-9▶Convert EnemyTemplate and EnemyTemplateManager to C# - data-driven enemy system+440-303▶Convert EntityFactory.gd to EntityFactory.cs - object pooling system complete+767-494▶Convert GameState.gd to GameState.cs - state management with property setters+498-322▶Convert EventBus.gd to EventBus.cs - 70+ signals converted to C# events+559-480▶Add migration progress tracker to track completed and pending conversion tasks+165▶Add C# conversion reference guide with GDScript to C# patterns+386▶Update readme.md for C# migration - change all .gd references to .cs+37-37▶day 14!! 2 weeks in the game is looking way waay better. Today I fixed up a lot of old bugs and made the game crash less by consolidating a lot of things that honestly did not need thier own files and duplicate functions/dead files that made debugging harder. I also made sure that the HUD shows correct information for lives and bombs and fixed the triangle powerup system.
fix up menu and fix issue where HUD doesnt display correct info for lives and bombs+138-62▶fix gamebreaking bugs+42-57▶chore(cleanup): gate debug logs, fix HUD popup tween crash; remove DevelopmentTools autoload+174-121▶added a bunch of cursor rules (im not a vibecoder i swear lol)+6415-281▶Fix cho ren sha 68k mechanics and fix a gamebreaking bug right after it starts+331-26▶remove test files and other useless things-452▶Day 13 - Tried to consolidate everything and make it less buggy but it only got worse but it is now more maintainable with less files and the adaptive music and screen shake is back but I cant lose any lives :( Im really sick of waiting 5+ mins for videos to upload so i turned quality down since im the only person that watches these anyway
consolidating files for the chance of things breaking bieng lower+192-222▶Whole lotta bugs+1194-425▶improved HUD significantly and add frame time graph. Improved frame stability and worked more on a "scoring" system of performance based on frame drops frame time and other stuff. also fixed a couple bugs and worked on a in progress Boss rush mode.
add frametime graph and bug fixes to stop frametime spikes+134-2▶imrpove stabiluty score sytem and try to simplify i since it made fps and frame times kind of jumpy:+82-51▶WORJKING ON HUD SCALING AND BOSS RUSH AND FIXING BUGS - GAME IS VERY UNSTABLE+646-253▶fix the scaling, fixed a lot of bugs this is day 11 & 10 i didnt do day 9 strike one :( 30 days of shiba i also added a cho ren sha 68k style powerup system with the rotating dorito looking things alr bye thank you also the poewrups dont work rn but im on that a$ap (rocky)
Consolidate scripts directory and enhance item collection system+281-275▶add a bunch of sho ren sha features and fix bugs+3394-1321▶Enhance safety and performance across various systems+1988-241▶Enhance bullet visibility and gameplay dynamics+3079-122▶Enhance boss mechanics and stage management+1-1▶Fix critical boss spawning and stage bugs+449-131▶day 7 scaling is broken and game lags when bosses spawn
tried to refactor and make a general loop style system where it handles all things per frame like minecraft... but it doesnt work... Day 6 of shiba 30 days
Remove unused files and scripts to streamline the project, including various boss and enemy scripts, background managers, and visual settings. Update scene files and configurations for better organization and performance.+1024-778▶just check the readme asshole+5998-147▶redid balancing of enemies, added boss heath UI, enhanced streak system, added back CRT shader after it broke since last build added easter eggs in campaign and quit button. also made the enemies be different and have names and come it waves that have shapes and bullet distributions. Also added adaptive music. Fixed the bug where there were very loud sounds after a long killstreak. stopped streak from "pausing" after ending. Re-did hit registration so that it is much more consistent now. Day 4 of 30 days of shiba.
make final adjustments for others to playtest- shiba hackclub+121-36▶went waay back commit wise and then added feautres from the older commits one by one on the better more stable base. also added a easter egg in the campaign option. changed the rainbow to only effect the streak text. the bomb system is still broken however. fully fixed hit registration. also made debug logging more aggressive.
Add epilepsy warning, rainbow streaks, quit screen, uncapped FPS+166-4▶Refactor MainMenu: Replace 'Play' and 'Options' buttons with 'Freeplay' and 'Campaign'. Remove hint label and update corresponding functions for new button actions. Implement easter egg when you press in progress campaign version of the game+181-32▶- BulletPatterns was spawning bullets without connecting hit_player signals - Bullets had collision_layer=0 (no layer) instead of layer=2 - Added signal connection in all 4 BulletPatterns spawn locations - Implemented invincibility frames (1s) to prevent duplicate hits - Simplified EnemyBullet to single detection path (area_entered only) - Set proper collision layers: bullets=2/player=1 - Added comprehensive logging throughout hit system+171-34▶change HUD to display FPS instead of TPS, implement rank pressure system to gather a bunch of lose strings. remove TickManager to make working on stuff easier. Update MainMenu to include options and connect BGM to AudioManager for dynamic pitch control. Change hearts to X's and O's+160-87▶changed readme+8-1▶Added boss heath bar Updated enemy killed signal to include enemy position for item drops Refactored player movement and game over handling for improved gameplay flow+352-10▶I have tried to refactor the code somewhat and completely failed and tried to add a boss health bar. Today was a complete failure.
I add a noAI label bc I really dislike AI art and also added a epilepsy warning tuned the crt fiter to reduce eye strain and also added a rainbow effect when you get a 10 "killstreak" (I should think of a better name). (check out the SICK new main menu screen) (this is the same as the slack post bc Idk what else to say also there is a little delay when you get an extra kill past the 10 streak and i think it makes it look better + improved screenshake)
Clean up: remove dead code and debug output bring back crt filter and make the main menu fit the theme of the game better+417-1673▶Game now works again and has better enemy layouts for more engaging combat. And I fixed the background to have a black background and added more enemy bullet spray patterns.
now it completely works but still needs polishing+214-131▶partially fixed but the background is still messed up+567-1454▶now the game is playable again+1207-11▶added main menu will polish later+265-2▶Implement distinct visual indicators for enemies and projectiles to improve clarity and reduce confusion for players.
Challenge: Adjust game speed parameters to slow down player, enemies, and projectiles for improved gameplay experience.
Adjust player movement speed to find a balance that enhances gameplay without sacrificing challenge.
All three of these criticisms worked on, enemy and background colors worked on so that its easier to tell things apart and things are much slower now.
SPACE TO SHOOT, ARROW KEYS TO MOVE and X FOR BOMB

Super Subtle Shiba Reference on the bottom left corner -- Sorry for spamming! Controls: Arrow Keys to move, X for Bomb and SPACE to Shoot. LOOK AT README IF YOU CAN PLS: https://github.com/4t0m15/wipshmup2/blob/main/wipshmup2/readme.md
A lot + readme update+2036-322▶added small readme update with controls+2▶added readme+6-270▶Refactor player and enemy scripts+703-1901▶removed medal system entirely+94-198▶Fix escorts binding and cull bottom stragglers; ensure bullets always hit StageController: add cleanup_bottom_stragglers() to free any enemy reaching the bottom edge each frame. ClassicEnemy: Set explicit collision_layer/mask for reliable collision detection. Add ensure_player_bullet_hits() fallback to apply damage and consume overlapping player bullets when Area2D signals are missed. EscortFighter: relax set_leader parameter type and add defensive Node2D check to resolve call_deferred conversion errors and restore escort following.+41-3▶Classic enemies: scripts/ClassicEnemy.gd Despawn non-turret enemies when position.y >= viewport_height - 2. Turrets are excluded. Simple enemies: scenes/enemy/Enemy.gd Same early-despawn rule near the bottom. No linter issues on the edited files. added instance-validity checks in StageController.gd when adding wingmen/escorts and when assigning leaders, preventing calls on freed/null instances. FormationManager.gd initializes its formations dictionary defensively, avoiding null dictionary access (crashes the game)+19-29▶Added pretty much everything base, now I just need to fix the MANY bugs and add upon the base w/ a story and different modes
Everything is in place but its really buggy+358-117▶improiving enemy AI+2555-567▶adding visual flair+2075-152▶bug fixes and adding sprites+130-33▶Added basic functionality code-wise -- will add more variety and other stuff later (especially textures), for now code is modular and easy to improve upon.
It works a little+2607-15▶Github setup, everything is now good
setting up my twttr+1373▶Initial commit+21▶I just setup all my tools and hope to see you guys in Japan
