Got lighting finally working. But you know what? I dunno.. I don't even think it looks that good lol. Definitely worth looking into Godot's native stuff again now.

Simple clouds working. Here I am at x=1000, z=1000! No matter how far I go, the clouds are still perfect and have a natural scroll... I think. Some shader magic is involved. #godot #gamedev #minecraft

Thanks! That's from adjusting which faced receive subtly more light based on orientation, which is what vanilla MC does.

Lighting works and is properly shaded, unfortunately I'm pretty sure the way I store the lighting entries is slow. I think it increased the gen time of each chunk by like 50-100% lol. The next step is getting light to propagate around adjacent chunks! #godot #minecraft #gamedev
A chunk in a minecraft clone.

Timelapse of The Organization's PMC Soldier design. After the outbreak, they have been deployed in Datura City. Some of the soldiers have also turned into crics due to prolonged exposure. There'll be regular soldiers, squad leaders and cric variants. #indiegame #gamedev #UnderTheRooftop

High fidelity prototype: using a consumer webcam to record mocap via #freemocap. The output result is flattened since I only have one camera, but multi camera setups should be promising. Face rig is also here but I wasn't testing it yet. Exports to blender easily. Promising! #gamedev #blender

First high fidelity prototype of the new project. Just a bunch of copy pasting from GodotShaders but it looks good. Aesthetics of what I want to make are definitely coming together. Not too happy about the frame drops though. #godot #gamedev #mgs2

Working on a PS2 style look. Low res upscaled with a bilinear filter, semi low res textures and vertex lighting are doing the trick.

m.youtube.com/watch?v=T-2Y... I love Super Bunnyhop, but in comparison to the article above, his Critical Close-up from the 2010s feels like it's just barely grasping at the discussions coming to fruition in the Kotaku article. Not to diss George though, he is and continues to be an awesome writer.

Makes total sense since you have to animate the gate. Awesome! And I'm curious, if I may ask, about your approach to structure generation? 🥺 (pretty please)

And do you bake the fences into the mesh data? (I'm soooo jealous of your game...)

Ran into new bugs with the rendering (very complex) and some architecture stuff with chunking that is preventing me from moving on. Didn't feel super motivated, so got some work done on the mood board.
A mood board with some Minecraft stuff but mostly Final Fantasy Tactics references and images.
