My player character is in the game, along with improvements to the vegetation system to ensure it's a smooth 120fps most of the time! It's starting to come together!

Yep, I had my eye on a 8TB ssd in September for about Β£400 ($500ish?). Within a few months it was already Β£800, now it's Β£1000 easily. Insane

Early days, but grass on my new game gets "revived", and that revival is stored on a mask that's saved every 5 seconds. The player can also pick up items that need to be reassembled.

Now need to do the logic of getting those items to move to their position correctly.

Forgot to mention this, but my puzzle game, Fenced In, is a part of the Steam Winter Sale! If you fancy sitting down for a few hours trying to find each combination of animals, you can do so for Β£1.50!

Add me on the game, I got a rainbow shiny earlier so hopefully it’ll appear on the wonder pick for you!

What's also weird is how all alien races from across the cosmos seem to have come up with some kind of universal standard for the upgrades/machines.

It takes us humans years to come up with just the USB standard!

Ever since uni I've always wanted to work on a game involving grass in some capacity thanks to the game Flower. So I decided to actually start working on millions of blades of grass on a chunk based system. On an m1 pro, this is getting around 90fps at 4k with almost 7-8 million blades of grass

Heads up game dev folks - when they warn you to get up every hour, do so!

I've been diagnosed with a blood clot in my leg from sitting for extended periods of time, so I have DVT.

I know most of our lives these days revolve around a PC and sitting at a desk, but seriously, get up more often!

I’ll report him now, but his discord username was greyalien1, and he joined my discord server first then added me as a friend. Since releasing my game I’ve had so many people jump on the support server first then try to dm
