I don’t have as much time to work on #Lawnscaper now with my new job, but I’m determined to see it through. I will release a game as a #solodev.

Figured out GPU instancing in #unity, and now the game runs perfectly, even on low-end mobile devices! I think I'm finally nailing the aesthetic I envisioned with fluffy, animated grass.

I ended up going with the clipboard style to match the game-over panel. The animations need a bit more polish, but challenges are pretty much finished mechanically. Curious to see how they affect replayability in the next playtest.

I managed to model some new bridges in #Lawnscaper, but I’m not very good with animations yet. Instead of fiddling with keyframes, I added a rigidbody to each plank and physically simulate them collapsing. Turned out pretty well!

Had a lot of fun composing some background music and adding sound effects to #Lawnscaper! I feel like sound is really important to making a game feel like more than a prototype.

I'm between jobs this week, and that means I can work on #Lawnscaper full-time! Let's speed-run a game.

Basic movement and mowing ✅
Not loving the aesthetic yet, but it's better than that high contrast grass from yesterday.
