I updated AnimatedMultimeshInstance3D to Godot 4.5.1 and made the ghoul horde demo public.
It features:
- Bulk entity control
- Entity movement, avoidance and aggro
- Accurate physics body collision detection
- Turning corpses into static instances

Made a submission to #GMTKJam over the weekend.
A dungeon crawler where your past copies help you fight the enemies.

Got carried away with implementing the enemy system and forgot to post the progress.
I added enemy spawning, sounds, aggro and attack damage.
I'm going to work on missing enemy animations next. For example, death and different types of attacks.

Just finished implementing support for per-instance oneshot animations in my vertex animation shader.
Here I use it to play the attack animation.

Added inventory window with item inspection.
All the weapons that I planned are done. It's time to swap these testing cubes with an actual environment and enemies.

Continuing to work on the weapons. I finally got rid of all the glitches caused by aiming at objects point-blank.
Planning to add an SMG and a bolt-action rifle and then move on to implementing the enemy hordes into the world.

Accurate hit registration I made for the multimesh. It uses a single skeleton and works well on any number on instances.

I was remaking the title screen and decided to add a white beam. When leaving the game I saw a bug where the material color remained as it was during gameplay.
It gave me an idea to read the time from the save file and set color intentionally and it worked perfectly.
So bugs are not always bad.

Yeah, now that I look at it, it's weird. I didn't have time to make a proper demo scene.
Here's a better demo someone made that has the exact same effect applied.

Update on the vertex animation shader for Godot.
I created an addon called AnimatedMultimeshInstance3D that does all the baking for you inside the editor.

It allows to draw tens of thousands animated meshes with unique per instance animation in a single draw call.

A rain effect I'm working on.
It's a post-processing shader that adds rain puddles on all horizontal surfaces and has screen space reflections with ripples. It turned out even better than I imagined.
I'll share the shader code soon.

Still working on environment objects for my game world.
In the meantime, here is a procedurally generated skill tree system I made. Or should I say skill forest?

Wanted to share an update on the town generator. I finally have the buildings sitting on top of the terrain. I was also working on improving the foliage initialization to prevent freezes.

Started experimenting with adding a height to the terrain and saw unexpected "blocky" results. Ended up on an adventure of digging source code, building engine from source, and writing a C++ GDExtension. All just to change a noise output from 8 bit float to 32. Was worth it though.

Each building generates its own static navigation mesh. Creating a static mesh for the whole world would have an extreme performance cost, so I made my own runtime navigation mesh baker. Here is the quick demo with the meshes displayed.
