🤡Tired of those fake mobile game ads? Yeah, same. So we got inspired and made Crate Crisis a game that’s actually fun and real.💥 🔥It’s out NOW: apps.apple.com/us/app/crate-c… (iOS, android soon) Go play it before your friends do. 🫡 #screenshotsaturday

@the_digi_law @MeneerTr Hard to say, the current engine is currently private and I don't know if Gericom wants to release it in the future

@ermelber @MeneerTr I am curious, I am thinking of porting a engine I am making to the DS, and plan to have height-map terrain and such, would I be able to implement your terrain engine in the future? Else can I know how it works so I can make a faster DS Impl. of what I will write for PC/DC?

It seems an old ROM of a project I was working on with friends leaked online, it's so funny seeing people speculate about this as some sort of obscure piece of media by a mysterious Chinese dev, while it's simply just something we made several years ago. LMAO

The terrain engine is handcrafted and written in pure ARM assembly for best performance. It pulls out many tricks out of the hat you can't even imagine. I don't like that I've been credited like this.

UPDATE: A few news outlets have talked about my tweet and credited me as the main creator, however my involvement in this was minor compared to my friend who made the entire terrain engine, I worked on Link's model animations and Link's state machine code.

@ProjectAlpha22 Yeah this has been showcased in the smgds server indeed

@ermelber I remember you posted a video of this I think at some point way back when. Did you ever do that, or am I just crazy? It might have even been in like, say, the Galaxy DS Discord or something?

@1m4b0t_ Hardware doesn't matter because the game runs in the same mode and clock speed on both DSi and DS lite (and 3DS)

@ermelber so that may or may not be caused by the lite's weak hardware

@MeneerTr We planned to recreate some aspects of the game, but mostly it was just a way to test our terrain engine and make something fun out of it. Dunno if we will ever revisit this in the future tho :P

@ermelber Are/where you planning to make more than the Botw heightmap?

@1m4b0t_ Probably some glitch or random shenanigans, I can't explain this nor remember if this was fixed in subsequent patches ;)

@ermelber hi, i'd like to ask a question, when i first started the game on my ds lite everything was transparent except link and the next time everything loaded the same way it did on my dsi and 3ds, is there an explanation for this? ps: i don't have a memory expansion pak on my ds lite

@KoenigSphere It was never meant to be public and it's highly unfinished and glitchy

@mastercreeper66 That explains it lol

@ermelber I remember it being shared in the NDSi Brew discord back in 2018

@JustJasen Lmao yeah I admit that's a fun theory Thanks :)

@ermelber My Chinese conspiracy theory made a lot of sense while I was writing the video but it just being a leaked fan project is way more sensible :P (although the Bilibili video being from 2019 is crazy) You guys did a great job with it though!

@chrrynobaka @f4micom

@f4micom @ermelber lmao
