For all the fans of TempleOS out there now comes GodOS.

[-] MadhuGururajan@programming.dev 33 points 5 months ago

Lol when GodotOS supports fractional scaling faster than some DEs..

[-] Valon_Blue@sh.itjust.works 17 points 5 months ago

This is awesome! Is there a practical use case? Or was this just a fun learning project?

[-] popcar2@programming.dev 29 points 5 months ago

Just for fun, it's more of a toy. That said, the source code is available so someone could probably extend it to something a little more serious.

Will do.

[-] popcar2@programming.dev 9 points 5 months ago

Looking forward to it :)

[-] Valon_Blue@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 months ago

Awesome job. I watched most of the video and it looks really cool.

[-] binomialchicken@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 5 months ago

Where's the homework folder?

This is a great showcase of the engine’s ui, nice work! What languages did you use?

[-] popcar2@programming.dev 12 points 5 months ago

Thanks! I only used GDScript, nothing else needed.

[-] wagesj45@kbin.social 13 points 5 months ago

This is going to be great for the "haunted PC" genre.

[-] GammaGames@beehaw.org 1 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Ink/twine integration with something like this would be crazy cool

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

"haunted PC" genre... What is that?

[-] wagesj45@kbin.social 3 points 5 months ago

The game that immediately popped into my mind was Last Seen Online.

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 months ago

media about PCs that are haunted.

[-] XTornado@lemmy.ml 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Well I guessed that, my question maybe wasn't great I was expecting some examples because I don't know anything like that.

[-] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago

Her Story

Emily is Away

and Pony Island

are probably the ones people think of but also, honorable mentions:

Hypnospace Outlaw (not really haunted)

Fallout 3, NV, 4, 76

Orwell

Duskers

SuperHOT

Hacknet

Doom 3

Subnautica

[-] BolexForSoup@kbin.social 8 points 5 months ago

How fun! Awesome music choice as well.

[-] CaptDust@sh.itjust.works 7 points 5 months ago

This is actually brilliant, nicely done.

[-] mrsgreenpotato@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 5 months ago

That looks amazing, you're a good UI designer. I can't get my head around Godot's UI builder, l very much prefer Unity's, so seeing something like your GodotOS blows my mind.

[-] popcar2@programming.dev 5 points 5 months ago

Thanks! I've actually used Unity before Godot and I can tell you the UI system here is a lot easier to deal with compared to Unity once you understand it. Also there aren't 3 different technologies to make one user interface. Unity's UI Toolkit was still kind of a mess last time I've seen it.

[-] mrsgreenpotato@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 5 months ago

I'll have to look at your project then, thanks for releasing it. I'm curious how you managed to do all that.

[-] GammaGames@beehaw.org 2 points 5 months ago
[-] popcar2@programming.dev 2 points 5 months ago

I just saw it! Wild stuff!

And that title will make a lot of people really mad haha, he did clarify it wasn't a real OS but boy are the comments rolling in anyways.

[-] GammaGames@beehaw.org 2 points 5 months ago

LOL that’s unfortunate, I’m seeing lots of positive comments on the video! So many people seeing the potential

[-] Woovie@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

I'd love to build something with this, starring the repo!
