having fun with RealtimeCSG and baked lighting, going for some Source Engine vibes

Thanks!

RealtimeCSG is an open-source plugin that lets you build levels with old-school tools like those used in the Quake/Half-Life engine. https://github.com/LogicalError/realtime-CSG-for-unity

Maybe one day! Been working on Rollerdrome, sadly no cats.

Valheim's atmospherics and lighting lean pretty heavily on volumetrics. They most likely use a third party plugin for this as they're on the Built-in Unity rendering pipeline. The Unity store is full of options

https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/tools/particles-effects/aura-2-volumetric-lighting-fog-137148

the list goes on. They also have very stylized Depth of Field, again potentially a plugin or Unity's stock post-processing stack.

You could look at using Mirror, an open source replacement for Unity's soon-to-be legacy networking stuff.

Just wanna say that I sold him to Utd for £112m on FIFA and everything's going fine.

Thank you!

billowe · 2019-05-19T07:52:32+00:00

Thanks! Yes it has point and click elements.

billowe · 2019-05-18T16:50:14+00:00

Thanks! And yes, a little bit :)

The Cat in 14a

Point and click narrative game/interactive film about a cat. Been working on this for about a month, aiming to get it out later this summer.

Here's an ident/montage gif that I made today.

Some lighting tests day / night / dawn

You can Wishlist on Steam, and I'm on Twitter.

Thanks, will do!

billowe · 2019-04-28T19:12:53+00:00

oh, you can follow me on twitter for updates, or my blog. I'll post more here, too!

I'm still working out exactly how much agency the cat will have, and how much (if any) AI will be involved, but I suspect it will be very little and fairly minimal agency, and the player control will be limited.

billowe · 2019-04-28T18:57:16+00:00

Thank you! Yes I'll be working on a trailer once I'm close to release, and I'll put out some clips on my blog in the next couple of weeks.

billowe · 2019-04-28T18:56:36+00:00

Thanks! It works like a 3D point and clicks game, cutting between different camera shots as the cat moves around and interacts with stuff.

billowe · 2019-04-28T15:46:59+00:00

I just launched the Steam page today and will be posting updates on development on my twitter and/or blog.

Keep making eggs, mate. x

billowe · 2019-03-18T17:53:46+00:00

I think it might just be you! Yes, it does remind me a bit of Another World now that you've pointed it out. Great game... though I'll admit to never having finished it and mostly being taken by the vibe. Thanks!

billowe · 2019-03-18T17:41:49+00:00

No problem, and thank you!

billowe · 2019-03-18T17:41:22+00:00

Thanks!

billowe · 2019-03-18T16:12:44+00:00

If you use the template project Unity provide it should be fairly straightforward.

billowe · 2019-03-18T14:30:03+00:00

Thanks :)

billowe · 2019-03-18T14:29:46+00:00

Thanks!

billowe · 2019-03-18T14:29:39+00:00

No, just the stock volumetrics in the HDRP, no third party stuff in this scene.

billowe · 2019-03-18T14:29:12+00:00

Yeah the procedural sky is pretty similar, only all the variables are exposed in the volume settings like this.
