Hi all, One of my backers and a fellow indie dev, Wulum, is currently running a Kickstarter for a game of their own kickstarter.com/projects/wulum… The team is just him, a concept artist, & a composer. It's only been live a few days, & they're already over 25% funded with 140 backers. :)

Realized I hadn't posted this one here. Just a little gif of a mechanic I was prototyping.

The 2-dev voxel-art indie game I mentioned a while back, GO Heroes, is now on Kickstarter! The devs have been very supportive of Down Ward and other indie projects, and just seem to be really cool people. :)

@thedeivore Thanks Stephen! :) The warping ring is a distortion shader effect. The raw effect is to zoom in any imagery behind it. However the amount of zoom can be influenced by the source image, on a per pixel basis. Here I'm using a white ring fading outward to black.

Wanted to mention solo-dev Stevie's game Zapling is about 90% funded on Kickstarter with 6 days left. There's a demo, boss skull/ability collecting, procedurally wiggly legs, and perhaps most importantly twin-stick dancing. :) #indiegame
NINE FINGER GAMES@9fingergames

Okay now I'm starting to sweat. Final week on Kickstarter & 80% Funded! kickstarter.com/projects/9fing… Please retweet this, share it with your friends, and maybe even back the project yourself. I'm blown away by the support we have received. I appreciate every single one of you.

@CaballolD Well, the nice thing about roads is that their complexity only grows roughly linearly with size. A single road stripe is like 1 extra row of polys in the side-rails, which is not bad actually. So geo might actually be an okay way to go, & more flexible.

@Fisholith Hi! Yes they are geometry at the moment. I'm thinking of baking them into a texture or something to use less geometry but I'm not sure.

@psilynt Interesting. Yeah, a global electronic shutter makes sense for high frame rate video where you don't want rolling shutter effects. Thanks for the info. :)

@Fisholith Strangely enough because the 'shutter' doesn't close (regulators are turned on/off instead), after the image time, a few photons can still leak in before the image is read out. Reading the image out takes a long time in comparison to the exposure duration.

I was curious what the shutter speed was on the Mars Helicopter's nav cam. In the shadow photo, we can see the blades moving with a bit of motion blur. In this shot, they seem to move about 3 degrees. At 2600 rpm, that's 1/5200th sec shutter. Pretty fast! :) #MarsHelicopter

@MIncognito789 Oh cool. Yeah I've still been updating it. I actually released a few updates during the Kickstarter even. :) Mainly I've been focusing on smoothing out the difficulty in places. Though one of the main things is that the three Hourglass Game modes are unlocked by default now.
