all your free games always punch so high with art and originality. They feel like a anticipated games where the idea was crafted over years. you guys are artists

we have a GAME OUT. it's about language puzzles. it's weird and cool and strange at times and janky but ultimately very heartfelt and honestly the puzzle goes HARD. love this group of people and i think we made something quite cool so you need to play it if you're interested ❤️

making a h o l e darker with a shadow lasagna not the best solution, just a bunch of transparent cubes slapped together, but worked better than I expected 🦧 #gamedev #pixelart

sorry for the late reply, and thanks. the style is almost fully 3d, but is only smooth when orthographic, but going perspective has the depth. So i always wanted to have some shot with a transition like that to show the scale of the world. and then also just breath of the wild lol

Check out the Empty Spaces section on my website, it has some pre-pass, decal info. But basically it's an extended depth normal pass, that also draws "segment" areas. Then edge detection produces these lines. Rollerdrome also does something like this...

How I painted the world from my previous post! 🌼🖌️ Had to make my own tools because of the special shaders. But it's all procedural, chunked, and GPU instanced now. >:3 #gamedev #pixelart #unity3d

thanks, the pixelization is done by the cam just being low-res but everything else - including shaders - is built around it. the palette is actually @adamcyounis.bsky.social Apollo palette. You can find it on lospec.

experimenting with perspective views for our 3D pixel art game. the game will mostly be top-down, but maybe it's useful for cutscenes or something? any ideas? #gamedev #unity3d

thats so cool, and it also sounds very good! we actually wanted the game to feel immersive and a bit grounded, not just cute. it means a lot that it inspired you!

Figure out snapping camera to pixels in world space. Really look at hand-drawn pixel art and the way artists shade things and draw lines. Express that with shaders and also picking good colors. (This actually uses @adamcyounis.bsky.social's Apollo palette.)

Look at these 3D pixel perfect lines between the poles. 🦧 I've been cleaning up some dusty code in my render pipeline - like these lines - before moving onto my next... mystery game project?! #unity3d #gamedev #pixelart
