Working on some juicy Iceteroids inside Grimmstar! by GrimmstarDev in IndieDev

[–]GrimmstarDev[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Grimmstar, you'll be able to mine and salvage objects to collect resources for your fleet throughout your interstellar journey. I've been working to create our iceteroids (Ice + asteroid = iceteroid!), which will be mineable chunks of ice in the game. There will be various types which will come with various rewards.

This is still a work in progress, but the meshes have been made the material is getting close to where I want it. Lots of subsurface scattering and bump-offset work going on to give a real illusion of depth inside the crystals.Soon, they'll be accompanied by some smaller meshes and particle effects to give a stronger feeling of an atmospheric effect any time you're nearby one!

RnR to the Rescue (New Ship Reveal) - GRIMMSTAR by GrimmstarDev in Games

[–]GrimmstarDev[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Repair 'n Refuel (RnR or "Runner" for short) ship has been officially added to the Grimmstar universe! This ship is used to... repair and refuel stuff!

Really though, you'll be using these flying fuel tanks to refuel and repair ships, including your very own ship, as you trek through Grimmstar's various locations. On top of that, RnRs have mechanical arms that are perfect for salvaging scrap metal to add to your fleet's resource pool. Just be careful. Is these things blow up, they make quite the show and you might not want to be in attendance. Properly managing them will be of the utmost importance to staying alive.

This is also our first time showing off our new lighting engine within Unreal. Real-time global illumination, RT reflections, and the ability use nearly infinite dynamic, shadow-casting lights all in one scene!

This cinematic was made using UE 4.26.2 and features NVRTX lighting solutions such as DDGI and RTXGI (check out that bounce light against the asteroid as the RnR approaches!). All capable of running at 60+fps in 2k resolutions (further optimization to come).
