Still working on my small article about the Wandering Terrain technique. Making a good documentation takes time. Finding the balance between enough information and explanation length (and no, i won't use "tools" to generate the article ...). #godotbarn #godot #documentation #gamedev

Making a side project with my daughter. Tested the game mechanics on pen and paper. That might be fun ! #game #boardgame #indiegame

Soon at @thegodotbarn.com , a complete article about "wandering terrain", from terrain mesh generation to shader to manager script handling camera movement to shader uniform update. #indiegamedev #solodev #Godot

Wireframe rendering shows how the terrain is moved on the fixed mesh. The shader is performing a bicubic Bézier interpolation on the 128x128 heightmap (as for all the previous posts made about terrains). #GodotEngine #shader #glsl #indiegame

Blue : Fixed Mesh moving along with the camera (36k vertices, 72k faces)
White : 128x128 instances of 3x3 quads (262k vertices, 294k faces ).
The fixed mesh is computed once and a shader "moves" the terrain on it based on the camera translation/rotation.

My 13yo daughter is using @kenney.nl 's "Make Room" as a 3D modeler for her game to come (cause Blender is a bit overwhelming for her and Make Room allows exporting models). Nice move sir, nice move ! #indiegame #accessibility

I've been inactive for far too long (almost two weeks !!). Time to code something useful (i hope).

[WIP] I am modifying the planet editor in my game so that it can generate foamy edges for water and other liquid surfaces.
I would also like to add support for shorelines.

I'm starting an article (or a series of articles) about making a workflow to create 3D animated characters into Godot. As a draft, i've made a quick experiment. It's a bit rough/unpolished, but tell me what you think about it. youtu.be/_ChIgQkp0Po #GodotEngine #Blender #animation @thegodotbarn.com

If you didn't meet the over-caffeinated guy with the space game around #GodotFest, or you could not see the action, because he wisely chose a dark nebula for the demo: here is a video showing off the Quick Command System.

What felt like the biggest compliment at #GodotFest was being asked how much I doctor my screenshots :D
I myself think the game looks way better in motion.
My only trick is I made a button/script to pause gameplay without locking the camera. That way I get a janky photo mode, but I don't even use it

#GodotFest sets the bar high. Quality talks and great organization. I've met many delightful devs. Unfortunately, I've not seized the opportunity to greet many of the people i know online 😥 Everybody looked super busy.

Excited to attend the "Keeper to Keepers" talk about adding multiplayer to existing basecode @ #GodotFest ! This one could have helped me years ago ...

Good news! Even if you couldn’t make it to #GodotFest this year, all the recorded talks are now gradually being uploaded to our YouTube channel.
