Self awareness is not as easy as it looks. I had to make sure every body part knows if their child parts are blocked so they dont get all tangled up. They get really grumpy when they are tangled.

Took a minute to find a style that works for 'drawn' creature in the editor. I was going to do a pencil style but water color was easier. Since i suck at art, this is 1000% math and burning your gpu. #gamedev #indiedev #Indiegames

More evolution progress. Finalized the Blueprint mechanics and am working on the Sketchpad to design the visuals. I think it needs a bit more crosshatching to really sell the drawn look. Last image is the final in-game version.

working on an evolution game and having fun with shaders. Dynamically changing the creatures in 3d can really slow down the cpu so we decided to go old school for the editor. The fun thing about this is the image (except the text) is generated on the GPU.

Just finished up my water physics and shader, I was shooting for something that would match the style of the terrain. This uses realistic fluid dynamics because why not.
I still think GPUs are magic, you can't convince me otherwise.

If I want to release my game I need to stop thinking “I wonder if I could… “. This time it was “… “build an apple ii clone on a raspberry pi connected to a $3 tiny 320x240 display” #gamedev #indiedev #Indiegames

We are in the home stretch, our game Free-Bees releases on April 7th!! I’m relieved we finished but I’m convinced it’s going to to get buried. We’ve done ok with marketing but would love any advice.

I am trying to blend the different biomes in my procedural terrain generator, something is off but I cant quite put my finger on it.

Took a break from FreeBees to noodle on a prototype for a sequel to my Evolution game. This time everything is 3d and completely generated with compute shaders, sooooo much math. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegames

Almost done with freebees! Now I’m getting the itch to work on my next project. I’m leaning toward a sequel to my evolution game and made a qucik prototype to workout the procedural meshes and shaders.
