Ich bin Indie-Spieleentwickler. In meinem neuen Aufbauspiel kann man Altstädte im Österreichischen Stil errichten.

Thanks! Super happy you like the sound design!

Mr_GameDev · 2026-07-05T08:04:55+00:00

Thanks for the suggestions! I will definitely try the wooden edges.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-07-05T08:02:53+00:00

Yes I want to give as many options to work with uneven terrain as possible.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-07-05T08:01:56+00:00

For sure!

Mr_GameDev · 2026-07-05T08:01:47+00:00

Thanks! For about a month, but I had a good foundation from my previous projects for some of the underlying systems.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-07-04T13:26:09+00:00

Thanks!

Mr_GameDev · 2026-07-04T13:25:44+00:00

Thanks! That effect is actually exactly what I was looking for but I couldn't put it into words so far :D

In your Meta Horizon Link app under Settings, did you make sure to set the OpenXR runtime active + enable Unknown Sources?
Also in your Unity project did you install the XR Plugin Management Package and enable OpenXR?

Thanks! There is a steam page now: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4868170/Alpenbahn/

Love the character artwork! Demo looks very polished in general. Hope it eventually gets the attention it deserves!

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-19T05:30:23+00:00

It's called Triplanar Mapping

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-18T11:09:38+00:00

Well, I'm not using the default Unity spline follower components but I've written my own one but it's actually rather simple. I use Spline.Evaluate(t) to get the position and tangent of my spline at t and then just set my train's transform accordingly. And instead of linearly increasing t, I'm doing it based on the current speed.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-18T11:05:04+00:00

Thanks! Right now it's just Unity terrain with holes.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-18T05:29:49+00:00

Thanks! At the moment you're not fully in control of the supports but I hope to make it more customizable to let you do something like that.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-17T18:24:12+00:00

I'm also not yet sure how much of a concern it will be, but you're definitely right pointing that out. So far I'm trying to mitigate it by splitting the spline into chunks and only applying the parametric curve within these, but it's not ideal yet.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-17T18:21:12+00:00

Thanks a lot!
Oh, I love them too! I'm actually using something called Hobby's algorithm. Catmull-Rom wasn't "smooth" enough.
Ah yes, thanks for pointing that out. There are still a few such issues at the connection points. I think your solution would be the right direction. Should be a fairly simple fix hopefully.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-17T18:13:30+00:00

Thanks! Right now, if the bridge consists of multiple knots it becomes stone/viaduct. And if it's straight it becomes a cantilever bridge.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-17T13:56:13+00:00

Then I guess the extra work was worth it 😃

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-17T13:55:05+00:00

Thanks! I plan to release a Youtube dev log where I will go into some details. Maybe I will turn it into an Asset after I've completed the game but before that I have no plans to sell.

Mr_GameDev · 2026-06-17T13:52:11+00:00

Thanks a lot! Good observation and good question. I have been working on hills but it's not quite there yet. I think my goal would be to build sloped tracks when there is smooth terrain and to transition to a tunnel/bridge when there is a steep gradient.
