#FindsFriday #Celtic: `Three-dimensional depictions of animals appeared on all sorts of every-day objects. Small statues were also common, and were all skilfully cast using the lost-wax technique. Large game animals such as boars, stags and roe-deer, horses and oxen were preferred subjects. 1/2

And finally, we gotta end with a ‘little guy’, right? Here’s an Archaic terracotta figure from Boeticia of a boar, now at the Met Museum. They were able to compare the figure to a similar one in Berlin to determine it was probably a full, standing figure once. www.metmuseum.org/art/collecti...
A broken terracotta figure depicting a boar. The only surviving pieces are of the head and front of the body, as well as one leg.

Mirrors Edge x Counter Strike Surf where you parkour on anything (real) Be smooth n stylish in dystopian Rome. Or just walk around and explore, I can't tell you what to do. It's called Boars in Rome! #pitchyagame

I have released my level scripting i/o system, it's called JoeIO and it works great for me and at work but it's early so be gentle and just holler if you come across any weirdness. An explanatory video is below www.joewintergreen.com/joeio-a-leve...

Just finished a trailer/update video for a new level & new art. Way bigger than the last one, lots of ideas explored and lots of playtesting still to be done. Very happy with how it's turning out! Got a big backlog of stylish clips to post, too :D #indiedev #parkour #gamedev #indiegames

Made it so you can jump out of vaults! If you jump earlier in the vault, you go higher. Jump later in the vault, you go further forwards. Timing it is satisfying :D #indiedev #gamedev #parkour

And here he is in close up. Absolutely divine. Complete too, which is rare for Roman glass finds that turn up in the Thames. The Romans thrived in modern day Cologne, a great trade & economic hub thanks to the River Rhine.
Complete blue glass bottle in the shape of a wild boar, probably used for perfume or scented oils.

Some thoughts on wallrunning, sloped walls, and tic tacs! I wanted to revisit wallrunning on sloped walls. You can now wallrun 'better' on a sloped wall because you run in a taller arc. Jumping off a sloped wall is pretty strong because of how tic tacs work! #indiedev #indiegamedev #parkour

I have been meaning to make some in-engine documentation but I kept getting sidetracked. Anyway, I made something quick and simple because it's handy for going from blockout -> decor and for some reason the artists can't read my mind!!?! I hope @rystorm.com is proud.

We jammed out a level for a custom map loader! It uses a gltf importer so we don't have to make a level editor for the community. Prototypey, but it's cool that people can test out their own maps if they want. It will also convert named objects to game entities! #indiedev #indiegames

Is there a lesson here? probably not, other than 'make cool stuff, dont worry about realism' but i think that only applies to people making a game with the same brainworms that I have

A pipey parkoury sketch. It's simple but I really like how it feels, thinking of adding some more density so that you can do even more routes in this small area! #indiedev #indiegames #parkour

A smol sketch for a factory level. Made it so you can wallrun and wallclimb on moving objects!! Also running and jumping off them feels nicer. #indiedev #indiegames #parkour

What UVing in a good level editor tool is like: Select a face and Alt + RMB on hovered faces to flow it to that face. I can also flow it from the hovered face to the selected faces with Shift + Alt + RMB (coming in Scythe 0.7).

Pivoting back to plan A - making the rooms random generated. It's a mess, obviously, but the walls already spawn the way I want to :--) I'm not not a good coder, I just brute-force my algorithms through trial and error. Pretty cool what you can get done with so-so skills. #ScreenshotSaturday #Godot
