Negative vibes from industrial zones almost completely neutralized (through thoughtful urban design!), who's ready for the warehouse rave? #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev

Hover a zone button and every tile that craves that zone lights up across the whole city. Demand is per-tile and specific, so you see where the city wants the next zone before you commit to a direction #gamedev #indiedev

every tile in my city sim carries an aura score built from additive terms: industry and traffic push it negative, waterfront and busy mixed-use streets push it positive. parks are the one multiplicative term: 1.5x whatever the net already is, radius 4. blight included. #gamedev #indiedev

Here's a closeup of the Julia aura (pollution) fractal beatmatched to Euphoric mode I added a more subtle version on other lenses--it really is a gamechanger for flow when actively building #gamedev

I baked a Julia fractal as an overlay to represent negative aura (aka pollution). Interfaces that meet the player where they're operating can be still be visually stunning (If you turn the sound on you'll see it's beatmatched too) #gamedev

So grateful to everyone who playtested last night, got lots of good data from every interaction Some people it didn't click for but then for some people it was clear they could go for hours One thing was clear across both groups: I can, and should, keep turning up the volume #gamedev

Continuing to be inspired by the graphical effect candy in Tempest--added a fullscreen distortion pulse as a reward for significantly increasing your Throughput Now this is an effect I will be keeping (p.s. sound on as always 😉) #gamedev

Experimented with additive blending today It creates glassy neon effects, but subverts how you normally expect to interpret 3D shapes. Conveys more information because you can see through buildings, but ultimately just too busy Y'all should still see it here though cuz it's neat #gamedev

mierle ukeles, maintenance art manifesto, 1969. splits everything into two drives death instinct: growth, dynamic change, your own path life instinct: maintenance, equilibrium, the eternal return the twist: Euphoria is the death drive. Degeneration is the life drive #gamedev #proceduralgeneration
