My erosion filter is out! Video, blog post, and shader source. It emulates erosion without simulation, so it's fast, GPU friendly, and trivial to generate in chunks. Explainer video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=r…. Companion blog post: blog.runevision.com/2026/…. #ProcGen #vfx #GameDev

I've overhauled my puzzle level generation so a level is now "grown" like cell tissue in a triangle tessellation. New elements can be inserted anywhere, and the whole level deforms to make room. This makes it easier to control topology and create paths that loops around areas. #ProcGen #GameDev

another stylized aesthetic explosion experiment. still challenging myself to only use default sphere mesh + vtx warp + fragment fx, no particles. stylized discard instead of alphablend in fragment shader for a sharp contrast + glitchy pixel look. #gamedev #godotengine #wip #vfx #rtvfx #procgen

I'm an #IndieDev building a custom engine for my medieval fantasy survival game. Some things I've done so far: Simulation with client / server networking Basic DX12 renderer Asset pipeline Character movement and animation #ProcGen world creation Basic UI Basic Audio Basic Health / Combat

For my game's terrain, I've long mulled over how to combine the epicness of grand mountains with the "what's around the corner?" intrigue of smaller cliffs and hills. After a lot of fiddling over the past two days, I think I may be onto something. #GameDev #ProcGen

Tested a big world of 6.5k tiles. It generates in about 5 seconds, chunks itself up into manageable pieces, and has no hitching as they cull themselves when out of view. Calling this map system refactor a huge success! Looking forward to getting back to gameplay now. :3 #Godot #GameDev #ProcGen

My blog post about how software rendered depth based occlusion culling in Block Game functions is out now! enikofox.com/posts/softwa... #GameDev #ProcGen 🎮

couple days late but, happy 1 month birthday block game! what a difference a month of development makes #EniBlockGame #GameDev #ProcGen #PixelArt 🎮

Hi! I'm Rune, a full-time solo indie game developer (art, design, code, ...). After releasing my first game 'Eye of the Temple' I've been busy developing procedural generation tech for my current game 'The Big Forest'. I often post about it; here's a sampling of my experiments. #GameDev #ProcGen

I'm still working on my YouTube video about a cheap erosion filter, but I've been tinkering with improving it as well. I recently had some nice breakthroughs overcoming various limitations of the original filter by Clay John and Felix Westin, and I can't wait to tell you all about it. #ProcGen

I learned of a cool erosion noise function from 2023 (link in reply) and wondered how it would feel in my game. First impressions: 1) It's fast for erosion, but quite slow for a noise function. 2) It looks nice from afar but doesn't make environments more satisfying to explore. #GameDev #ProcGen
