Working on "Archipelago"
Putting together this somewhat unique fishing minigame, piece by piece! The bones are here, it just needs the JUICE

For map generation I've opted to use Perlin noise, and write the values out to a texture.

You can see the "debug" view of the proposed map in the bottom left corner which shows different shades of red, indicating different possible tile types you'll encounter.

This is my work-in-progress tentatively dubbed "Archipelago" about exploring a procedural open ocean

Need to make the camera bit more dynamic, but the fishing is coming along

I ditched the "eyeballs" and went straight for this idea of having pixelly sprite eyes that I can animate much easier and make this lil dude just a bit more expressive

Some more progress on fishing. It's really nice when you can really hear and feel what you are doing.

I've made so many silent prototypes and they are eerie!

A work-in-progress: I do not know what this game will be, but it WILL have fishing.

Experimenting with some funky visuals - an "everything is wobbling" shader.

Not sure I like it really - it makes a lot of things unpredictable in their interactions

14 concurrent players - not bad, better than the average 😆

I've had like 6x more impressions in the last 12 hours than an entire week of a separate Steam event 😅

Taking an unusual approach with the next project and starting entirely with world building, 3D modelling and atmosphere.

I know what it should LOOK like, I just don't know how it will play...

So here's a tent!

Putting together a weather system is a lot of fun 🌨️😎🌧️🌫️

What other kinds of weather should I have?

Tracks in the snow! Whose are these tracks, and where do they go?

Sound design is fun. Layering ambience and gentle piano really sets a lovely atmosphere
