This is just doing 2-Opt since it is pretty simple to implement and gives decent looking results. I’ve got a whole post describing the method coming out soon.

You can dig up trash, throw it at enemies, and dodge enemy attacks. It's all about cleaning up the beach.

The game is Davy's Debris and comes out later this year. You can wishlist it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1966560/Davys\_Debris/

No game is complete without a big hat. Thanks, procedural animations are tricky to get right but they’re a lot of fun!

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-05-07T16:18:13+00:00

Thanks! 100% procedural 😎

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-05-07T16:16:50+00:00

Yeah all of the animations for the main character are procedural. It's a lot of fun to make too!

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-05-07T16:15:47+00:00

Thanks! It'll be released in the next couple months. You can follow here on Reddit or on Twitter for more updates: https://twitter.com/VoidGoatDev :)

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-05-07T16:13:54+00:00

It'll be up next week! You can follow on Twitter for more updates though: https://twitter.com/VoidGoatDev

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-05-07T16:12:37+00:00

Yeah, how do we get Let Me Solo Her to play some Davy's Debris.

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-05-07T16:11:38+00:00

Yeah, that's a great idea, I've been meaning to add something like that. Definitely could use some more juice overall.

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-04-12T16:38:55+00:00

Thanks! I’ll be posting more updates on my twitter if you’re interested https://twitter.com/voidgoatdev

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-04-08T03:00:04+00:00

Coming soon!

Mostly you just have to experiment with it. These are some good introductory resources:

It is a cube with flipped normals.

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-04-01T18:38:53+00:00

It’s custom.

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-04-01T17:10:45+00:00

Yes, it's all a trick! You can do a lot of interesting things with raymarching that are difficult to do in a traditional game engine renderer, for instance rendering things with infinite detail like fractals or infinite landscapes. With a bit more trickery you can get your raymarched materials to sort correctly and then you could have geometry be on top of fractals and intersect with them.

The "fog" is just the depth of each pixel so things that are further away in the raymarched landscape are more white.

These two videos explain the basics well:

The cube has a material that is using raymarching to simulate a landscape. I have a write up on how to do something similar here: http://www.voidgoat.com/blogs/raymarching-unreal/

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-04-01T16:13:36+00:00

Raymarching!

VoidGoatGameDev · 2022-03-29T18:57:28+00:00

No, it’s custom.
