so it turns out yesterday was not the day. but today will be! maybe. perhaps. more compute shader goodness. twitch.tv/basie youtube.com/live/peFl2ai...

today is the day. the day that compute shader collision detection finally works. i have decreed it, therefore it must come to pass. twitch.tv/basie youtube.com/live/EIAiDZJ...

did you know #smolsurvivors is out? today. #smolsurvivors is out today. it's today, that #smolsurvivors is out. you should buy it. it is good. you can get bee powerups. the bees become more durable. it is a thing. also, cheese.

compute shaders, you say?

why, certainly

i've heard of those

now that we finally have "destructible" environment via fragment shaders, it's time to refactor, then push on with collision detection via compute shader twitch.tv/basie

we have a compute shader that spits out zeroes! this is progress. but i feel there are better things ahead. let's try collision detection twitch.tv/basie

did you think we already had enough complexity? NO, I say we don't! therefore, having mastered the art of the very-simple-five-line-fragment-shader, today we move on to mastering the art of the very-simple-five-line-compute-shader. It can only lead to great success... right?

turns out GPUs can render to images as targets. turns out this is called a render target. turns out that makes quite a bit of sense as a name for something that renders to a target. how does this all work? let's stumble around in the dark a bit and find out.

2D shaders again: how do masks work? I feel like I have a mental model but no practical experience. So what else is new...

mornin'!

can the destructible environment stuff be done on the GPU? twitch.tv/basie

ok back on the bandwagon, let's figure out how this destructible environment works (by copying smarter people's code as usual) twitch.tv/basie

It turns out Lemmings creator Mike Dailly published videos documenting a recreation in Game Maker! Checking those out to "borrow" information...

Would I do something like forget to mention I was streaming? Of course not! That would be the act of someone suffering from "holiday brain".

But, just by the way...

Have you discovered Setolyx yet? Your semi-daily source for gamedev, co-workin', guitar twangin', bot-talkin' chaos!
If you would like to hang out in a game dev stream once again, mine is live, working on some stat progression mechanics and hopefully not getting stopped up for 2 hours on any small issues today! I wish you good days, and thanks for readin if ya do! ♥ twitch.tv/setolyx

Avian 0.2 is out! (Let's just call it 2.0?)
Avian is an ECS-driven physics engine for @bevyengine.org, with a focus on ergonomics and modularity.

I just released version 0.2, which includes a *ton* of new features and quality-of-life improvements. An announcement blog post with release notes can be found here: joonaa.dev/blog/07/avia...
Avian Physics 0.2 - Joona Aalto

It's time to start something new.

It's been a year since @piratesoftware.live told us it was OK to "just go make games". I know how to make the box move on the screen.

Six months from now, on my 53rd birthday, I'll release an open source @bevyengine.org game.

Hello. We streamin'. Still workin' through the #adventofcode in Rust, with a little Bevy Engine sprinkle around the edges.

Does a call to `dbg!()` to print the answer from a Bevy system count as using Bevy? Cool, thought so.
