What are you building this in? Are you writing the particle sim yourself? Im also craving more technical gamedev content!

Someone needs to make a game like this for the playdate!

I don’t know godot at all and it kinda depends on your game, but I really like the fully procedural shader-based windows technique, which solves this problem pretty easily for skyscrapers and such. Can’t find a good reference right now, but happy to explain more if you think it might fit

Is there a shadertoy version?

Are there other zig users on here? Are you interested in it? It’s been a really enjoyable experience so far. It has that C feel, but with a more modern and nicer dev experience. Feels like a perfect fit for the playdate

My current project is a puzzle game, and the prototype is fully js, no libraries. I’m porting it to c or zig at some point to run it on the playdate, but plain js is my cozy place

Chester at the park
Chester at the park is a puzzle game in which you use the rules of chess to reunite a dog and his owner.

I don’t think it’s cheating, but tbh, I rarely click on videos—opening a whole new app is too much effort when I am just scrolling

I’m making chesteratthepark.com , a 1bit pixel art puzzle game where you reunite Chester with his owner using the rules of chess! I’ve been working on it for a year and a half, and am getting close to finishing the prototype with the first 10 puzzles. Everything coded from scratch, art is also mine

What about the opposite trap where you spent months on cool new tech, but you don’t actually have a game
Look! This sphere has really cool real time global illumination!

First, but with a space before the ( and {, and 2-space tabs. You should see how I write switches tho

Yeah, I know what they do, and roughly how they work. Marc ten Bosch, for a fleeting moment, made me feel like I got it—but that moment passed quickly lol.
I rarely do 3d, and when I do janky euler angles have been enough. If I do a real 3d project, I’ll tackle it

Let's remove Quaternions from every 3D Engine (An Interactive Introduction to Rotors from Geometric Algebra) - Marc ten Bosch
In Geometric Algebra there is a way to represent rotations called a Rotor that generalizes Quaternions (in 3D) and Complex Numbers (in 2D) and even works in any number of dimensions.

As someone who reads math text books for fun—I still don’t understand quaternions!
Quaternions seem awesome specifically for 3d rotation, and if I’d need to, I could figure out how to use them. But there’s a lot more math that I use almost every day. Basic linear algebra and trig especially

Its still possible to do simple webdev, and some of us consider it a virtue. Especially while you’re still learning. If I were to start over today, Id want to start without react and vercel, etc.
Is there any specific thing you ran into recently?

Probably the 5th or 6th one, when you are way past budget and time frame and you somehow have to bring it home:p

Marketing: A Plan For Beginners
There are two marketing-related questions I get at least once almost every week in consultancy calls: "how do I start marketing my game" and "when do I start marketing my game".

Whats wrong with just GitHub? Free hosting for a html file and a platform dedicated to managing multiple people working on the same code

Im sure you can fit a car into any theme. If not, make a game about how badly a car fits in the most stereotypical game for that theme 🤡
