Working on a new prototype, a game about navigating sea caves in pursuit of science! Starting off with floaty motion, basic physics, destructible terrain, and cellular automata cave formations with plants (green) and ore veins (yellow). More coming soon! 🌊 #dragonruby #gamedev

Today's dose of cute is a trio of Great Egret chicks who look like they're having a serious meeting. About the availability of fish perhaps. Those are some chunky legs and enormous feet!

Quick update vid. New level designs emphasize a flowy, skatepark-like experience. We're rapidly approaching v0.3 with many things still "in flight", couldn't be more stoked about the direction!

Quick clip. It's getting easier to dial in the flip-into-dive maneuvering with the recent control improvements

Working on a water shader using a displacement map (gradient noise) over voronoi, both scrolling. Only works on a flat plane for now, but looks kinda cool stretched across the waterfall

Makes me wonder, will I ever be able to play a game I made and not think about changes I want to make to it?

Flight on v0.1.0 - No changes since the jam, but wanted to put out a debut "Flight Log", hopefully first of many!
