Yeah and the animation is procedurally done in Unity so the legs react to the movement of the root body and enviroment. A very fun technique. Don't know If that would doable directly in cinema4D via xpresso 🤔

SDF is a really useful feature in C4D; I usually use it as part of my retopology workflow, but here I modelled the legs of my tank entirely in SDF.

🧑🏼‍🔬I spent last week helping my nephew with his school biology project about plant cells. 🧫He had the idea of modelling the whole thing as a 3D model and then printing it. So I teaching him how to use @nomadsculpt.com and how 3D printing works. #NomadSculpt #3DArt #School #Biology #3DPrinting

I decided to completely rebuild the entire colony subsystem as a Unity Dots hybrid entity approach. While the entire task colony system are managed in entities and jobs, and the items are even rendered by Entities Graphics, NPCs get classic GameObjects, even with a dynamic IK pickup system.

Excuse accepted🐬, I feel the same way. Visually, everything is the same at the moment, but I am making massive changes to my game code architecture.

I have spent the last few days expanding my colony system and adding item production and NPC needs. NPCs have individual 24-hour shift schedules (working, freetime, sleeping) and individual work priority overrides. #IndieGameDev #GameDev #MadeWithUnity @unity.com

👨🏻‍🔬🧪 After countless hours of coding on our own Colony system, the task and logistics planning and reservation system is now ready to finally execute tasks without getting in each other's way and competing for each other's tasks. #IndieGameDev #GameDev #MadeWithUnity @unity.com

Thankyou very much😁 but at the moment it's indeed primarily a prototype stuff.

🖼️ I love game UIs that consist of 3D elements, so I'm experimenting with a fake light shader approach in which a PBR-like principle and Lambert/Phong from a pre-baked normal map accept a shader global normal vector from which the light is calculated. #IndieGameDev #GameDev #GameArt @unity.com

I don't know what it is, but these retro graphics have a lot of character, and I prefer interacting with faces like these rather than with some Metahuman.

🛠️Flat surfaces are pretty boring, so I expanded my Ground Plane generator to make it compatible with Unity Terrains and generate intermediate sections between my building areas and the terrain surface. ⛷️#IndieGameDev #GameDev #MadeWithUnity @unity.com

To make the ground plane look much more interesting i add some vertex information to the generated ground plane mesh for fake shadow, surface distance and building distance. #IndieGameDev #GameDev #MadeWithUnity #Unity @unity.com

🛠️Optional rule-based roof generation, but also works at the bottom or on the sides. But that's enough for today.😴 #GameDev #IndieGameDev #MadeWithUnity @unity.com

⚡And here it is, the first implementation of an electric solver (which currently sets grounding automatically). The battery is not yet burning out from the generator, but it shows when it is overloaded💡 #IndieGameDev #MadeWithUnity #GameDev @unity.com

⚡This is going to be fun... The electricity is already set up so that a generator can be hooked up soon, and there will be batteries, switches, fuses, and burn-through wires.🚂#IndieGameDev #GameDev #Unity #MadeWithUnity @unity
