Ported my #noita -like from #macroquad to #SDL and #WGPU over the last 2 months
And multi-threaded the heck out of it too.
GIF-heavy devlog: www.slowrush.dev/news/porting...
#indiedev #gamedev
So my #noita -like is 100% deterministic (for multiplayer netcode)
Hacked up time travel as a debug tool - so awesome being able to replay backwards w/ full debug info and explore alternative timelines!
New thought: how about a "rewind 5 secs when you die" perk
#indiedev #gamedev #roguelite
Reworked character controller on my #noita -like to run directly against the falling sand pixels
No kinematic bodies for movement -> 20% speed up!
Looking forward to spamming a bucket load of enemies now
#indiedev #gamedev #roguelite
Added this "chaos mode" to my #noita -like roguelite for benchmarking the falling sand physics
60 times a second it spawns some material, triggers an explosive, spawns or kills an enemy, etc.
It's actually surprisingly fun? (captured in slo-mo-dbg build)

Graphics programming is such a weird beast
Even when you stuff it up you get cool results
Here the radiance cascades lighting for my #noita -like suddenly gained a disco mode, but only at certain screen resolutions
#gamedev #indiedev #shaders
Started trying to solve a minor bug of players getting mixed up
Ended up making my own gamepad-compatible UI framework with animations and localization: www.slowrush.dev/news/uis-pla...
Taffy-powered, iced-inspired: immediate API, retained UI under the hood (tree diffing)
#gamedev #indiedev #rust
Yep! A super annoying biome maybe
Oh yeah! Reduce the parallax effect a bit to make it seem closer to the terrain, maybe shrink a bit..
Still not sure I want it because obscuring gameplay when stray pixels can kill seems a bit harsh - but maybe as a challenge modifier?
Accidentally got a parallax terrain effect for my #noita -like
Except it's in front of terrain instead of behind it
Definitely file under "shader accidents not worth keeping"

New devlog exploring my equiv to #noita wandcrafting
With new playable web build - feedback welcome, hit me with your hard words!
www.slowrush.dev/news/signcra...
#indiedev #gamedev #roguelite #devlog
Will be working on getting a rough (rough!) demo up on itch.io soon :)
You can subscribe at slowrush.dev/sub to stay in the loop (one email every few weeks, will notify playtesting opportunities there)
And/or wishlist at store.steampowered.com/app/3816900/... :)
It's still in pre-alpha, but I'm working on getting a build up on itch.io to get wider feedback soon!
When you give a #noita player access to your game's version of wandcrafting, but you haven't actually balanced it yet
#gamedev #indiedev #roguelite
My equiv of #noita 's wandcrafting is coming along
I directly show the relationships of what Signs can trigger other Signs, which is hopefully clearer to players than Noita's wand draw rules.
Force directed tree was too springy so trying out Reinhold-Tillford trees!
#gamedev #indiedev #roguelite
Prototyping a new take on my equiv of #noita 's wandcrafting.
Instead of a linearish wand with insanely complicated draw rules for spells, maybe I just directly show the relationships of what Signs can trigger other Signs?
This tree is a bit too springy though!
