Sometimes a customizable, intelligent filter would be really useful

Slurs in standard API may slightly hinder adoption though

Looks impressive. I'm curious how playing on it feels like 😁

Join me for a sunrise walk? I've implemented time-of-day, better atmospheric scattering, airglow so the night sky isn't pitch black, boosted ambient lighting in the dark, and carefully managed transitions. Still missing an actual sun 🤦, moon, stars, and sunrise time stretching. #GameDev #IndieDev

Haven't seen this article in a while. Great read indeed!

I had the spontaneous idea to let active meshes follow paths and have colliders. The result: an elevator. I never planned to support any of this. I suspect this will be useful for quite a few other things, too. Paths can be edited directly in the game’s built-in mesh editor. #gamedev | #indiedev

Game design itself is quite ambiguous

I finally added retractable landing gear to airplanes. For now, it happens automatically based on distance to the ground. Technically, the wheels are "active reference" meshes that the airplane system takes control over. #gamedev | #indiedev

What's that?? 👀 A new devlog about my village building game! 🤯 It only took me 7 months 😅 Enjoy: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWrk...

I once made the mistake of giving access to my Trello board to an "idea guy". It ended badly.

It this point Microsoft cannot fix it since sure some application out there relies on this exact behavior

I agree, the sky has such a huge impact in the overall atmosphere. I'm using manual colors, too. It's just so much easier to tweak.

Quest markers are in, but there aren’t any quests yet. Targets are currently simple points with a radius, but they’re represented in three ways: on the minimap, as a screen-space indicator, and as a 3D marker in the world. A lot of steps just to tell the player where to go. #gamedev | #indiedev

That's cool, thanks for sharing

Reminds me of my construction sites 🥲

lol that sounds unreasonable in any way possible, unless you're making a game for tiny ants

"a division between people, usually belonging to an organization, movement, or religious denomination" It's really fitting, actually

I constantly had crashes when I edited shaders during play mode. One of the reasons I ditched Unity entirely.

Now with light switching. To keep chunk meshes such as buildings static, emission color and activation times are encoded in the vertex data and evaluated by the shader based on the time of day. #gamedev | #indiedev

Originally, I wanted buildings to stay as static as possible, with referenced submeshes baked into them. Now I’ve added “active references”: With that, referenced meshes can become their own entities, allowing them to move, rotate, and light up independently. #gamedev | #indiedev

Finally added a day night cycle to my city building game. #gamedev | #indiedev

Cranes! I’m really enjoying this workflow: Create the meshes in the game’s built-in mesh editor, and then copy their IDs to reference them in code to do stuff. #gamedev | #indiedev
