Bushcraft Survival on mobile? Maybe! I'm learning about some super cool Godot features enabling desktop and mobile builds to coexist on one code branch.

For the Godot devs: there's a plugin called Resource Remaps (godotengine.org/asset-librar...) allowing you to remap autoloads for your platforms.

Bushcraft Survival is a roguelike, first-person survival game, set in the icy cold Canadian North. Alone. Hungry. Freezing. Feel the exhilaration of surviving the devastating cold!

Calling all #Canadians, I challenge you to spot the easter egg in this prop for Bushcraft Survival!

Also:
- Ucupaint is an extremely goated and incredible Blender plugin for texturing
- I don't think I'll be renewing Substance Painter

First sound track is coming together for #BushcraftSurvival! Here's a sneak preview, this one will likely be the start menu track

Give it a wish list on Steam to support development: store.steampowered.com/app/3529110/...

⚡3D GAMEDEV TIP⚡
Marking edges "Sharp" can make a huge difference in some cases. For this knife, I was having way too much trouble with the baked normal map. So rather than fiddle with it endlessly, I marked a few edges sharp and it looks pretty good!

WOOHOO! I think I'm done with my infinite, procedural forest + terrain system for now. It's stable with draw calls, primitives, and CPU/GPU memory. Art is placeholder.
