If you're going to climb a mountain you may as well enjoy the sunset.

Somebody requested that I put in splashy sounds for my fantasy mountain climbing survival game.

Let there be splashy sounds!

I've added some new clouds to my fantasy mountain climbing game.

I kinda like the solid look + outlines instead of more fluffy clouds. It gives me a more comic booky feel.

Today's work has been beefing up the mining a little in my mountain climbing game.

I've got fog playing nicely with post processing in UE5.5 with no engine mods. There's a catch though, you need whole-nother scene capture mirroring the main view.

Usually you'd need to bork the engine with a custom lighting pass.

See below for implementation details.

I've implemented the item balloon. Due to the unique wind currents surrounding the mountain releasing a balloon during calm weather is the perfect way to get items back to base camp.

However beware.
Release them during a storm and they could land just about anywhere.

Just a little clip from the trailer I'm working on for my game. The trailer's mostly finished now!
