Thanks! Fully agree, ambient color can be improved a little...

Trying a sunset mood... Looking good enough that we might give the time of day option to players in the end! ☀️🏝️ #gamedev #proceduralGeneration #art #unity3d #indieDev #steam #multiplayer #indiegamedev #gamedevelopment #indie #sunset

Building a camp, escaping dangerous animals, exploring the unknown island... Who will build the raft first to escape? 🦍 🏝️ #gamedev #proceduralGeneration #unity3d #indieDev #steam #multiplayer #survival #indiegamedev #art #island

New Blog post! This one explains our technique for modeling and generating volumetric worlds in the context of a game. 🪨 Overhangs, caves, arches - all those procedurally generated at runtime. 🔗 Link: newheadstudio.com/blog/volumet... #gameDev #proceduralGeneration #unity3d #indieDev #erosion

Arches and overhangs procedurally generated using a volumetric erosion algorithm.

Implementing procedural, volumetric coastal erosion - overhangs, sea caves, arches, all created organically during generation 🏝️ Writing a blog post about the technique 👀 #gameDev #indieDev #proceduralGeneration #screenshotSaturday

Very wip networked first person controller tentative 🪓🎮 Hopefully soon we will be able to cut down these trees... #gameDev #screenshotSaturday #indieDev #survival

Introducing some hierarchical aspect to the object scattering... Now trees can spawn objects around them in a given circle: rocks, pebbles, bushes, or even other trees 🌴 Writing a small blog post to explain in more details 👀Coming out soon! #unity3d #proceduralGeneration #indieDev #gameDev

Thank you! We'll post more updates in the coming days ;)

More objects, more placement rules, more variety... Looks surprisingly good for such simple code! ⛰️ #proceduralGeneration #gameDev #indieDev #unity3d

We usually use a seed for determinism reasons. This seed is consumed by the random number generators throughout the generation - as a whole. The seed is not really split in this case. RNG generates numbers, that are then used to create the island. Here, by the noise function and other parameters.

Putting trees & grass-like objects on the procedural island 🌳🌿🌴 Poisson sampling for trees (actual objects), random for the grass (instanced draw). With the lake, this already gives a nice forest ambience! ✨Much more to come, stay tuned ✨ #proceduralGeneration #unity #indieDev #gameDev

Testing instance drawing from C# for grass-like objects🏞️ Super efficient - although we'll need to sample elevation later. Nice thing: we can render different objects w/ varying quantities. Second half shows a field filled with beautiful flowers 🌸 #proceduralGeneration #unity #gameDev #indieDev

Trying a simple lake algorithm 🌊 Limited to convex shapes for now but still looks pretty nice. Surface has with a proper mesh and a dedicated shader. Next step will be to populate islands environment assets🌴🪨 #proceduralGeneration #procGen #indieDev #gameDev

Caves are another beast since you cannot simply represent them with heightfields - you either need voxels or some kind or some kind of implicit surface. But it would definitely be super cool!

Newhead Studio @newheadstudio.bsky.social · 10/05/2026

It's definitely on the road map of things to test. I don't think the 'smooth' increasing elevation from distance to sea is interesting gameplay-wise. Plateaus, canyons, irregular elevations all around the island would probably feel nicer.

Working on a new game! How do you like procedurally-generated worlds for a multiplayer context?⛰️ ⚠️Very wip procedural islands! #gameDev #unity #proceduralGeneration #indieDev
