Currently implementing the POI system for #TinyDreamWorld procedurally generated Dreamscapes. 🌸
The game designer will be able to create "chunks" in an editor and they will be randomly placed by the generation algorithm.

Very sorry for the recent inactivity! I will finally have some time for my own games in July again! 🥳
Reaaally want to get back to #TinyDreamWorld but I'm absolutely swamped with other game projects
(that I can't even post about 😅) currently.
But this is a good sign for my future #indiedev plans!

Progress on procedurally generated levels in #TinyDreamWorld 🎄✨
It's definitely not perfect yet and the parameters will need to be tweaked to result in actually fun levels but it's good enough to start building the "content placement" part next. 😊

Implemented a simple Binary Space Algorithm to block out the island sections of a #TinyDreamWorld level. The actual island shapes will either be hand-authored chunks or generated via a "random walk algorithm".
Also pretty satisfying to watch it go. 😄

Been another pretty busy week but managed to get some planning for #TinyDreamWorld procedural generation done at least. 😄
I've been going back and forth on which algorithm to use - here's a simple "Random Walk" algorithm in action. ✨

The dreamscapes in #TinyDreamWorld are currently handcrafted with predefined spawn locations for gameplay elements.
Time to make them more interesting! 😄
For the next update, I'm going to start working on *actual* procedural level generation! ✨

More work-in-progress footage for the multi-phase boss fight. 🙌
Finished the overall structure of the mechanics for phase 1 and added the phase transition. I really like how this is getting together. 😄

Working on this game again feels so nostalgic. 😩
It's also so much more fun now that I'm not weighed down by this ridiculous scope that I imposed upon this project originally. 😅

🎮 I will be bringing my paused 3D Jump&Run to itch.io as "Playable Prototype".
It will feature one fully playable level and a boss stage at the end of it. Would be a shame to let all this work gather dust for an unforeseeable time. 😄

I've finally taken the leap. ☕
Starting in july, I will be working as a Unity Freelancer! 😄
While I am confident in my technical skills, I'm still quite new to finding clients, bookkeeping, doing taxes, writing invoices, contracts, licenses... Oh god.

I'm not even sure how to announce that yet and what it means for the future of #TinyDreamWorld and all my other project ideas. This is truly uncharted territory. 🏝️
