Hello, human(!) artist! If you do pixel art and would like to try fit into 640x480 256-color VGA constraints, then lets talk :) I'm afraid I'm out of my depth here with what I want to make art-wise. Including a rough mockup of what I'm thinking. Fixed landscape, units, portraits, UI. NO AI!

Been getting back into my raycaster C project. Trying to improve the level builder API, so it's a bit more granular and could be recomposed, customised and macrofied as you like. As a nice refactor bonus, disjointed polygons can form a single sector. #programming #gamedev

Released a 64x64 pixel game for a gamejam over 5 years ago. Decided to actually finish it over the holidays. It's called Sunless Isle: Keep Of The Mad Magus, and it's a 3D-esque roguelike with three classes in three little levels. Now it's actually quite fun to play! eigen.itch.io/sunless-isle...

Hey, if this time of year is really, really, really, really, really, really awful for you too, I'm really, truly, genuinely sorry. I hope you find some things to find joy in and some love for yourself. 💖

Getting into more complicated components in my imgui Win 95 demo. Scrolling, then resizing and estimating the scrollbar size and position afterwards is going to be interesting.. Saving grace in this one is that it's scrolling lines, not pixels. #cprogramming

This was predictably complicated, but sector intersections/subtractions seem to work! You just define a bunch of polygons and the builder does the rest. github.com/eigenlenk/ra...

As I have some time, decided to revive and release some of my older projects. This one is based on the raycaster I worked on a few years ago. There's no texturing or sprite support yet. Just the basic structure, this time with parallel rendering support thanks to OpenMP. github.com/eigenlenk/ra...

youtube.com/watch?v=QfQX... Another lovely video of someone playing Cats on Broombas. I enjoy seeing players get stuck ...🙀... and then figure it out. Meanwhile I'm yelling out the solution at the screen the whole time. And yeah, the demo is too massive. It could've just ended after 10-15 levels.

In a move I'm not sure anyone could've seen coming, least of all me, it's been decided that cats just cannot be trusted enough with the Broomba, and apparently it's up to man's best friend "the dog" I'm told by the focus group. So I'm here to announce Dogs On Broombas. Thank you.

THIS so fucking much. It matches with a lot of what I experienced here in Estonia (a very eastern Europe in the 90s) down to the dingy places you could pay to play Mario or Donkey Kong on the SNES, or DOOM II if you were lucky and the PC was available. At home you had a Dendy (or similar), if lucky.

Bought and refunded Stalker 2. Didn't imagine there could be such a skill issue but had to even google how to find the artefact during the first quest. Assumed something would pop up if you were 0m from the marker, but no. Looks absolutely beautiful, but just not the kind of game for me.

This took some effort to get the objects "falling down" to clip against the environment AND perform okay on even a 386 (33 Mhz or so), but I think it works now. I should get myself an old MS-DOS / Win 3.1 laptop or something (if anyone has one to sell, DM me!) #msdos #gamedev #programming #c
