🚨 "The Making of Double Fine's Keeper" is now available! 🚨
Many of you have been asking for this one; we're happy to say the cameras continued to roll here at the studio during Keeper's development. Come see how this very special game came to be, from the team themselves! 😊

To reduce the number of ray-marching steps needed to find the surface of our morphs we generate a proxy from the constituent meshes. It must fully enclose the morphed surfaces while remaining as tight as possible to maximize throughput. We want to minimize the red and blue regions in the debug view.

the 'rib' primitive in strudel/tidal and now ginkgo is such a nice example of 'just enough randomness' and 'repetition makes it intentional'. basically, rib says 'take whats to the left of me, cut & loop a given chunk of tape of it (start time & loop length) and feed it onwards'.
