• DevLog9: New Active Perk
  September 19, 2026 by Luipy#Incremental, #Update, #Active, #Perk

  English: We’ve been working on a new supernode called “Gamma Ray,” an active that fires a massive beam of energy across the field, shattering every atom in its path. We believe it’s best for t... Continue reading

  
• DevLog8: New Post-Game & Achievements
  September 18, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Idle, #Incremental, #Physics, #Sci-fi, #Singleplayer

  English: Achievements Reading your comments, it’s clear that we need an Achievements system! So we’ve gotten to work on it, and the first achievements are now available. They’re divided into the... Continue reading

  
• DevLog7; Released a DEMO!
  September 14, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Idle, #Incremental, #Physics, #Sci-fi, #Singleplayer

  After a month of working on this project, we’ve finally moved from GitHub to Itchio! We’ve uploaded the first demo and wer already getting feedback… awesome! We even applied the first improvemen... Continue reading

  
• DevLog6: Refactor...
  September 12, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Idle, #Incremental, #Physics, #Sci-fi, #Singleplayer

  Today was a tough day… Refactoring the code. To say, we identified the areas that consume the most “FPS”, unoptimized code, and improved them. We’ve indexed processes, instead of asking nodes... Continue reading
• DevLog5: SuperNodes
  September 12, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Idle, #Incremental, #Physics, #Sci-fi, #Singleplayer

  Today we’ve developed 4 of what we call supernodes. These are upgrades that do different things, not just give more points. Neutrino Rain: An active ability that causes fast particles to appear, whi... Continue reading

  
• DevLog5: Title Pause & Settings
  September 12, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Idle, #Incremental, #Physics, #Sci-fi, #Singleplayer

  Did we say we’re a couple of backend developers…?? ;D We’ve rebuilt almost all our menus today! We hadn’t shown any of them until now, not the main menu, settings, pop-ups, or anything else. P... Continue reading

  
• DevLog4: Bye left rail & Hello Light
  September 12, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Idle, #Incremental, #Physics, #Sci-fi, #Singleplayer

  After feedback from some friends, we redesigned the HUD: the top bar, contextual strip, main field area, and expanded store. The left status column was removed. The quantization option appears in the... Continue reading

  
• DevLog3: The Quantum Skill Tree
  September 12, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Idle, #Incremental, #Physics, #Sci-fi, #Singleplayer

  Today, we replaced the “Prestige Lab” layout, buy a generator, feel an impact, close the panel, with a Quantum skill tree : a central spark, branches, PP as an inter-run currency, and a details pa... Continue reading

  
• DevLog2: The Four Horsemen of the Field & Table
  September 12, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Incremental, #Physics

  We haven’t talked about the main mechanics on the board yet… Cclick on a nucleus → fission, split, earn eV. Drag a nucleus → billiard sling on release. Hold LMB on empty plate → attract. Hol... Continue reading

  
• DevLog1: eV, Inject, and the first shop
  September 12, 2026 by Luipy#Godot, #Incremental, #physics

  We hung the first run loop on the billiard plate. eV is the run currency (electronvolt, a unit of energy widely used in atomic and nuclear physics) A powerful injection action feeds fresh matter and i... Continue reading

  
• DevLog0: Starting Helio-3 in Godot as atomic billiards
  September 12, 2026 by Luipy#devlog, #incremental, #godot, #physics, #prototype, #indiedev, #helio-3

  Today we started Helio-3 as a Godot 4 project. The first idea is simple: atomic billiards . The board is a physics toy: nuclei on a plate that collide, sling, and split. That is what we wanted to prov... Continue reading
