Lighting on some grassy terrain

Improved the lighting system.

Lighting for a side project.

Added smooth transitions for the lower map. The last image is the full map and the others are sections of that.

Thanks, yeah, it is very similar to Dwarf Fortress.

Side of a hill with flint and stones with some flowers. This is done in ASCII art.

Another side of a hill with flint and stones with some flowers. This is done in ASCII art.

Added flint (<) and stones (•) to my #ASCII game.

These are items that can be gathered whereas the boulders and flowers either have collision (boulders) or will have some functionality like growth and can be picked (flowers).

ASCII flowers and boulders on the side of a hill from a top down view.

Added boulders and flowers to my #ASCII game.

Infinity symbols are boulders and stars are flowers.

Basic player movement implemented for my #ASCII RPG.

My plan is for it to be a simulation RPG where you live the life of an individual in a procedural fantasy world.

An player surrounded by terrain with ASCII graphics.

Now the player can be spawned in and the chunks generate around them.

lightly scattered points of light in divine realm

Copied my coding for the divine realm back into my #ASCII game.

mountainous terrain with ASCII graphics

My terrain now has flat plains and tall mountains.

flat grass with a person on and tile selection

3d model of a person

networked clients

I spent the last 2 weeks making a 3d Vulkan renderer that features:
-model importer and renderer
-tile picker
-animation support
-networking

I decided on reflection to go back to the ASCII project because graphics take a very long time to get anywhere.

ASCII terrain with slopes represented by arrows.

Added slopes to my terrain.

Desert biome with cactuses

Started my Daggerfall-like RPG mostly from scratch.

I focused too much on generating a large world before developing gameplay.

Been working on an isometric side project with 3d sprites

Some progress on the tectonic plate movement.

#indiegame #indiedev #indiegamedev #rpg #worldgeneration #proceduralgeneration

Making progress on the tectonic plate simulation for my Daggerfall-like RPG

Still a bit to go before it works properly

#indiegame #indiedev #indiegamedev #rpg #worldgeneration

Tectonic plate simulation progress..........
not going too well.......

#indiegame #indiedev #indiegamedev #rpg

Nice mountain range

#rpg #indiegame #indiedev #indiegamedev #worldgeneration #proceduralgeneration

Looks a bit better now.

Map and its tectonic plates!

I think the plates are a bit too circular.

Some screenshots summarizing my Daggerfall-like RPG so far!

#rpg #worldgeneration #indiegame #indiedev #indiegamedev

Added some basic elevation to my terrain!

#worldgeneration #indiegame #indiedev #rpg #indiegamedev

1. pick a position for the landmass
2. define a circle around the position
3. distort the circle with 3d simplex noise
Hope that helps :D
If you have any further questions feel free to ask.

Some procedurally generated landmasses!

For my Daggerfall-like RPG I am now procedurally generating the map rather than hand crafting the map.

Here are some screenshots of the start of the world simulation screen.

I am folding the procedural map generation from my ASCII project into this one.

Nice view

Transitions between biomes still looking very square.
