✨ I spent the last ~2 weeks diving headfirst into low-level game dev and accidentally wrote an isometric game engine from scratch.
#Rust + #raylib only. Inspired by Fallout & Arcanum.

Going through my backlog of short films I made and stumbled across my favorite project, a title sequence for Firewatch: youtu.be/mDCWPsSlQOM?...

TIL how hash maps actually work under the hood.
(aka: how dict, map, or HashMap magically give you fast lookups.)

Turns out… it's not magic — it's buckets, hashing, and resizing.

Let’s build one from scratch.

Rewrote my little isometric game engine in #Odin and #raylib
Now that it supports tile sets and maps from Tiled, it's much more fun to run around in it #gamedev #indiegame

Press F5 for debug mode #indiegame #rust #raylib

State machines are fun. The `Pickup` state basically blocks player input for a couple of frames until switching to `Idle` once the animation is over #indiegame #rust #raylib
