PeopleMakeGames' latest deocumentary about a man spending decades on making a map is amazing. The creation of the map is governed by a deck of cards and an incredibly complex system.

Procedural support beams for the bridge. Again funny how there any thing from gothic, rococo, roman, elven to timur architecture in a single arc. Made a bunch of geomtry nodes for this, a wrapper to wrap these shapes around cruves, spacing them perfectly etc.

A message from the Cozy Cube Team
Penguin Festival will no longer be releasing on the Meta Store.

As our team lead has stated before:

We want to create a game where players "feel welcome, at peace, and free to just be." It is a sentiment that has and continues to inspire us as creatives working on this game.

Meta's business decisions reflect values that run counter to that core inspiration as well as our own team's values. The recent Reuters report on Meta Al has put a long-standing pattern into sharp relief; it made our choice a simple one.What this means for Penguin Festival:

We are not stopping production.

SteamVR/PCVR launch is unaffected.

We are looking at storefront alternatives for standalone Quest 2 & 3, though we cannot promise anything at this time.

I am going to have to trademark "AI-gen is a mediocrity trap". Using it prevents you from reaching mastery cuz you aren't exercising deep skills. If you are a master you might lose those skills cuz you outsourced too much. Either way the end result is a hyper efficient mediocrity trap.
