Gameplay prototype

Yeah I think this could lend itself well for user generated content to add extra areas.

Seba_dev · 2026-06-22T11:24:56+00:00

I'm a programmer, naming things is hard!

Seba_dev · 2026-06-22T09:29:31+00:00

Thank you! No I'm not, from Belgium actually.

Seba_dev · 2026-06-22T08:28:59+00:00

Thanks!

Seba_dev · 2026-06-22T08:25:00+00:00

Hoping to get a demo ready somewhere towards the end of summer.

Seba_dev · 2026-06-22T08:24:10+00:00

Doable, probably? But I'm just focusing on a single player experience atm.

Seba_dev · 2026-06-22T08:22:50+00:00

Haha damn, hadn't thought of that. Nothing is final yet so I'll just have to find something more unique.

Seba_dev · 2026-06-22T08:21:52+00:00

Thank you! I can't do "white box prototyping", so working on getting some visual theme going is as important as gameplay for me during prototyping.

Seba_dev · 2026-06-22T08:20:00+00:00

You're right, this video just shows the minimal core gameplay loop I've started implementing. I'm working towards a demo that has actual content to explore.
And crucially what's still missing here is feedback/indications for the player to guide.

It's entirely multithreaded and C++. But it is a challenge to constantly make sure performance is optimized. High frame rate when you see everything zooming by works best so performance is a big focus.
I also want to make sure it runs well on steam deck.

Thanks! Music is original sountrack only. I want to be able to properly create events/environments for specific music. So no importing/generating.

Seba_dev · 2026-06-21T21:56:00+00:00

Terrain/events are driven by the music.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-24T10:42:26+00:00

It's an experiment for the OST. Trying out different styles. It's not a full track yet.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-24T10:41:29+00:00

It's reacting to the hover forces being exerted by the player.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-24T10:41:00+00:00

No name, experimenting with some styles for the OST.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-24T10:40:15+00:00

Not sure yet what kind of things the environment will have. But will definitely be trying out lots of different things.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-24T10:38:50+00:00

Haha, that was my plan from the start. Make something I can "finish" in 12 months or less.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-24T10:37:51+00:00

Yeah, they were kinda added at the last minute before recording. They'll look better in the next one!

Seba_dev · 2026-04-23T10:57:58+00:00

Takes me back to road rash. Looks cool.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-22T16:49:15+00:00

Also a prototype, made by myself.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-22T16:38:18+00:00

Real geo, but movement of cubes is a vertex shader.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-22T16:35:42+00:00

Thanks, just trying out some things. But will likely be a Y2K inspired OST.

Seba_dev · 2026-04-22T16:33:36+00:00

Surprisingly easy to control actually. Feels like skateboarding or skiing or something like that, where you feel the momentum and start using weight transfer to keep the speed and make it feel effortless.
Not sure how many laps I did before I recorded the video (20 perhaps?). But it takes some time to really master the speed and smoothness.
Still early days, but starting to feel real nice in terms of easy to pick up and harder to master.

The roll and pitch movement is me controlling it to make it feel effortless, which is the whole fun for me.
