The Bristlecrag has become enraged at #PaxEast Introducing Power Well: Titans Roll CMY dice into the tray. Where they land on the Titan is where you strike. Carve parts, craft gear, and hunt as ordinary folk claiming extraordinary power. Join a guild and take down the Titan today at Booth 11100!

I am a Knight; the last of the Wellbreakers.

My mastery of tactics is unparalleled. I read my enemies before they move, striking true with my blade while my shield drives me forward, unyielding.

I have sworn an oath: to shatter that cursed Well and return the power of Fate to mortal hands.

Probably easier to visualize this problem with some footage With the rise of folding phones we are seeing more 4:3 (or close to square) displays, so it is important to keep your content fully presented in certain types of games #Godot #GodotEngine #IndieGameDev #GameDev

Ran into an interesting #Godot issue today Making a 3D game with an always on-screen section (think Hearthstone's game board) isn't possible using built-in settings Here is a script that handles the FOV trig for you 💙 gist.github.com/RedPlanetGam... #GameDev #IndieDev #SoloDev #GodotEngine

1. You design your game with a static sized game board

2. The Keep Height setting of the camera allows an ultrawide monitor to see additional environment bits on the left and right that are normally just off camera

3. If the player is using a square monitor or a vertical monitor, the camera is still keeping the height, so the left and right sides will get cut off

4. So we will need to calculate a new FOV value that maintains our visible area

I have a major like/hate relationship with #TabletopSimulator It is best in class for prototyping and playtesting #BoardGames remotely, but at the same time it sucks the fun out of them Being able to script out certain actions makes games way more dynamic though 🤔 🤷 #tts #tabletopsim #boardgame

I absolutely love the Spiderverse animation style, surprised we haven’t seen it pop up in #videogames more Fun fact: In animation for film it is called “animating on twos” where each position/key frame is held for two actual frames, and p much always at 24 FPS #gamedev #indiedev #animation #games

“Imposters use a sprite card that contains 8 tris w/9 verts, and Billboards use 8 cards that contain 72 tris w/81 total verts…Billboard representations have 8x the num of verts and tris to represent as that of an Imposter” That’s wild. Incredible optimization. #Unreal #UE5 #Gamedev #Indiedev

Let's do this for #UnrealEngine also Materials in #Unreal have nodes called WorldAligned_____ that handle triplanar mapping for textures, normals, etc Very simple example in images below 🎮👍 #GameDev #UE5 #SoloDev #IndieDev

IMAGE 1: Scaling this wall also scales down the brick texture making it look odd

IMAGE 2: We can right-click the textures and convert them to Texture Objects, add a scale param, and run them through the WorldAlignedTexture node

IMAGE 3: And now the texture static, no longer squished with the scaling of the wall
