If you snatch the internal lightmap data and do some arcane SubViewport shenanigans, you can also use it to do *spatialized* effects on the lightmap too. #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev 922127

scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 25/09/2026People who don't make art or write music or tell stories or code or do anything creative whatsoever confuse me. The need to create is like the need to eat or drink or breathe. You're telling me you go home and you don't make anything? What do people like that even do? 010
scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 24/09/2026Some time ago, I realized that not only do most people not understand how computers work, they also don't even think about it. "How does this work?" just isn't even a question they think about asking. It may as well be magic to them. It's beyond understanding unless you're a wizard. 242

scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 23/09/2026Doing some optimization since my new PC doesn't have a GPU yet. My FPS nearly doubles when I look at the sky, presumably because the level is getting frustum culled. But the level is really simple so even on integrated graphics I feel like it shouldn't matter that much. 100
scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 22/09/2026Some people detest AI in art but find it either acceptable or a necessary evil in code. I am not one of those people. If you use AI for art, code, or even just for ideas, I don't like you personally. 100
Reposted by scarzehdFidel Destro @fideldestro.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Friends, I am absolutely ludicrous, and here is a gravity sim that doesn't use velocity or calculate any force. In a usual sim, you track position and velocity, and update the position every frame by adding the velocity. Mine just tracks the current position and last position. [...] 1174
scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 21/09/2026A few years ago, I made a stupid shitpost game in like a week. Now, I've spent the last several weeks making it actually almost good! But not quite.

scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 18/09/2026I've been doing some testing with runtime baking of Godot's NavigationRegion. It seems like the new navmesh doesn't actually take effect until 3 frames after it finishes baking. As far as I can tell, though, this behaviour isn't documented anywhere. 001

Reposted by scarzehdFidel Destro @fideldestro.bsky.social · 29/08/2025A little quick morning simulation experimentation. Here, I've moved a particle swarm using fractal Brownian motion and allowed their movement to leave imprints on a mesh. The results after some tuning look like pretty lifelike stone. 3142
Reposted by scarzehdFidel Destro @fideldestro.bsky.social · 16/09/2026I should probably be a little cagier about details, because I think what I'm working on is very very clever. But it's only very very clever if I make it work correctly. Here, my new gravity simulation technique appears to work, though correctly is an open question. 263
Reposted by scarzehdFidel Destro @fideldestro.bsky.social · 15/09/2026I was right. I used a For Each Element in the first version, then a Repeat zone inside it, but Geometry Nodes is already executing for each element. With the unnecessary section taken out, it now happily supports up to around 600 objects in realtime. #Blender #GeometryNodes 1144
scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 15/09/2026For too long, low effort shitpost games have been the domain of Unreal Engine and Unity developers. I'm here to prove that Godot, too, can make games that look, play, and make you feel like shit. 100

scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 08/09/2026I think a lot of philosophy is done from the assumption that consciousness is a special thing that fundamentally exists. People think that just because they experience their own existence, it must be real. But our perception of the world is full of evolutionarily advantageous illusions. 110

scarzehd @scarzehd.itch.io · 01/09/2026Console exclusives are a stupid concept that is exclusively harmful to gamers. The only reason consoles still exist is as a more budget-friendly option compared to PCs. Having a game exclusive to one console just means you have to spend even more money if you want to play a wide variety of games. 110
