So it took about 1 hour to get all the building data of the UK, so the world should be fun. Still, very impressed with tools that are out there to get a whole bunch of mapping data

Got slightly further with trying to figure out how to create my own maptile server. Honestly the first step is just getting this new map library working, if it does then the next would be getting the tiles

This is the most un-spoilery photo I can post about what happened today, but I was able to test a new mode for the zombie game in the most unexpected of circumstances. Really excited for the new video in few weeks!

At a weird crossroads, so many routes to explore and they all seem like the correct ones.

The person I was meant to test multiplayer with today unfortunately couldn't make it, but thankfully I came up with a 'creative' solution

Honestly, didn't even know if I was meant to be walking down here, but at least the game still seemed to work this far out

I swear if these changes suddenly make multiplayer performance actually performant that'd be so cool.

Got it working on IOS so that's fun, next goal is to see if I can host the mapping data in my own servers.

A fair amount of work ahead, but fingers crossed it's actually super easy and I get to go to bed early more often 😂

Currently planning out the architecture for the next project.
Seems a bit crazy for me to achieve, but I think the hardest part is just gonna be picking the one chocolate out of a number of different giant boxes and sending it.

Just had a look at the Playstore/Apple store processes to get something released and it does not seem easy...
