Happy little roofs. #gamedev #procgen

Spawned some* trees and suddenly everything is super chill. #gamedev #procgen

* actually way more than I planed

Apparently some operations are not commutative, huh.

What is a town? A miserable little pile of walls!

@feardemic.bsky.social do you know what’s up?

Thank you for your support! 🙏🏻 I’m not gonna lie the game is in a very rough shape, hence the free release to somewhat document a failed project. I hope that you find something to enjoy in there :)

Normals in blender can be copied and pasted between vertices. When I was doing a similar tile set some time ago I found out that it’s easier to manually set correct normal than hope the auto-calculated ones will match.

Your set is looking great though!

Legend says the portrait blinks when no one is watching. Better hair styles and prettier faces will be available at some point. It's a paper-doll-like layering of sprites, so some features can be customized.

If I could live in a fantasy inn, it would be the Yew Tree Inn.
Here’s a moment from the inside.

Well, well, well... I'm drawing some new tiles to wind down.

Cyclopean II: The Dreamlands is the much anticipated follow up to Cyclopean: The Great Abyss. An old school CRPG in the vein of Ultima, Questron and Legacy of the Ancients, based on H.P. Lovecraft's Dream Cycle.

Now with unnecessary dutch angles, very dramatic.

Putting some things together. The doors are just using the dialogue system with "teleport" effect assigned to the message.

A graph titled Scope of video games according to Hushcrasher Classification System. The Y axis shows Game Size (from 10 MB to 100GB), the X axis shows Credits count (sourced from Mobygames). The clustered dots on the graph represent 4 distinct scale categories of games - Kei, Midi, AA, AAA. The larger correlation between the size and the credits means larger category of a game.

I love this analytical take on video game categorization from Antoine Mayerowitz and Julie Belzanne:

Instead of trying to vibe-intuit the definition of an "indie" game, the authors analyzed the data from the perspective of game size and credits length

Woah, the scale is amazing!

Hopefully followed up with Darkside Detective Karts 🤞🏻

Ended up toning down the scanlines and adding a slight horizontal blur for some color bleeding. Somehow it just feels CRT enough.

#gamedev #pixelart #dungeoncrawler #blobber

I must admit that I seriously underestimated how hard is to create a single fake CRT shader that remains readable at different resolutions. The best method seems to be forgo realism completely and just suggest scanlines/pixelmask.

#gamedev #pixelart #dungeoncrawler #blobber

Is it running on CPU or is this GPU using compute or some advanced black magic with shaders and fixed pipeline?

Anyhow, looks great so far! I’m really enjoying the in-progress videos that you post here regularly.

32, limits are fun 😌

Building a compiler is good too. If you target x86_64 and decide to assemble it rather than use an external assembler you can even experience the madness that years of backwards compatibility bring to the table.
