sometimes you wake up violently hungover only to realize you somehow solved a rendering problem that’s haunted you for years

anyway back to bed

you are right, the UV gradient that governs how much a sprite can bend was a bit too lose

i hear you! but you know what they say about rules, right? i find it fascinating to mix the old and the new to blur the line between how we remember older pixel art games and how we perceive them today

so happy we decided to actually go with getting sprites to react to lights and shadows properly - it makes creating scenes such a joy

one thing ive been really excited about is our new movement system where we leverage pathfinding instead of direct movement which allows the player to weave naturally between objects in the scene instead of having to judge exactly where things are in z space - pretty neat!

i really wish i was above external validation but its kind of hard to rebuild an audience here amongst the blue skies - but i will keep at it!

so if you want to follow along on our journey making our strange little game please do! ❤️

want your character to walk on a swaying ship but don't want to mess around with rigidbody movement? just parent the world to the camera and sway it instead!
