oh hey its saturday, and I'm experimenting with lighting on picorton. I think I could possibly take a hybrid approach to rendering characters with spooky lighting and static light maps

A lot of tooling later, and this is where I am. Got some blender models and textures in. Need to do missions now.

the other day I kept saying to myself that I shouldn't implement a 3d engine in Picotron for ludum dare... #indiedev #lowpoly #indiegame #customengine #picotron #LDJam #screenshotsaturday

Made a planet generator, still working on the shader bit, but I love a nice procedural normal map when it works. #indiedev #psx #lowpoly #indiegame #customengine

Corridor sections 100%, now to work on importing furniture assets and adding a story. Also playing Alien resurrection on ps1 and watching the new show. #indiedev #horror #psx #HauntedPS1 #lowpoly #indiegame #customengine #alienearth

A lot of it is putting frameworks and libraries together, then adapting those different pieces to work together. A lot of my engine code is built on mono game + bepu physics, both are native to C# which I worked in extensively in unity.

Hit an awesome milestone, lots of placeholder stuff... but got the entire level geometry loaded in to my engine. All hard coded by hand lol #indiedev #horror #psx #HauntedPS1 #lowpoly #indiegame #customengine
