I like it! And I also like the small tilt of the buttons. This makes it playful and funny. Keep it up!

2D Water Depth Made Easy – Dynamic Character & Object Submersion in MonoGame #monogame #gamedev

BlizzCrafter @blizzcrafter.bsky.social · 8d

Haha, I often played the classic version back in time. There is nothing more refreshing than beating your opponent with a handful of peons and a nice tower rush 😅😂 I never thought about hitting some NPC's along the way through... damn that's wild bro! 🤔😱😎👍

See how I calculate water depth for my island game 🌴 – you might be surprised by how it actually works! 😅

Sounds nice Mr. D 😎👍

Note to myself: buy more more physical disks to avoid big downloads or waiting for streams all the day... 🤣😅

They should produce more colorful shoes for adults. Espacially male adults. It's tiring to see always the same shoe styles and colors for men (leather brown, jeans blue, dark olive, etc) over and over again.

I tried to play this game yesterday via PC GamePass and Geforce Now, but the nvidia servers are so stressed out, it wasn't possible for me to get past the waiting queue (and it were only 5 people, lol).

I wish you much power and energy bro! May you can come back to your game project fast :)

I'm finally back from my beach holiday and guess what: the new vegetation type "Palm Tree" suddenly appeared on my island prototype! Lucky me.

Thank you very much. Feel free to ask me whatever you want below my threads.

I implemented Y-Stretching when an object walks vertically over grass. It now looks a bit like foliage-bending. On horizontal movement, grass will still *only* do the wobble effect.

I added new fern sprites with funny wobble effects as well as a new bush sprite and water effects for objects curently in water (what an invention! xD)

Let's wobble together 🦗!

I added some stones to the island to test Y-Ordering. At the end of the video you can see that the ordering works for (partly)submerged objects as well.
