we do a little jamming

@deonarknage VS*

@deonarknage thank you for the kind words, I peeped your VG models and they do have a cleanness of gradients that I still strive for _(´ཀ`」∠) _

advanced water tech

@deonarknage sure, it's not actually terribly complicated the main water it's just two scroll textures, one screen'd on top I copy the terrain geo and set vertex alpha to 0 at the border, then the shader can do wave = sin(vertex_alpha + time + noise) * envelope (=1 where alpha < threshold)

@heinn_dev M8, I’d love to pick your brain sometime about how you accomplished this.

boing boing

@xbox360exclusiv yeah, it's for this uuhh necromancy game x.com/heinn_dev/stat…

@heinn_dev this model and texturing are so awesome. is he for anything?

the humble sklemton

@Espadah_ it's a small undead rts I'm making

@heinn_dev what is this, looks like a wc3 modded custom?

pig

@Zonelnteractif _(´ཀ`」 ∠) _

ended up going back on pre-made corpses for legibility, I really like how they turned out

@terror_glacke I'll try my hardest after this game, gonna lift a bunch of tech from it

@heinn_dev catagaia is still in development?

a little more art indulgence since there are actual individual pieces, might as well use them

@PyotrAlexRoma @aofi_art_stuffs to be fair the most batshit dithering algorithms always come down to two colors I just mean you'd sample per-texel and then snap AO+color to the palette (I think there's a funny way to do this for vertex colors too) _(:з」∠)_

@heinn_dev @aofi_art_stuffs It'd be cool but also feel weird, who is baking lighting in a game that can only afford 32 colors lol Maybe pixeling some in at most

@PyotrAlexRoma @aofi_art_stuffs this but ambient occlusion

@aofi_art_stuffs Actually it uses depth fog constrained to the color palette of the game to give it a sense of depth and reduce visual noise in the distance. Twitter just hates the colors in my game so it's hard to see in the video.

ok back to boring stuff bye

@PotionDweller @KelloPudgerro yeah, I'm indulging in a little bit of animation and funny details because otherwise it gets quite boring to untangle systems and state machines all day

@KelloPudgerro @heinn_dev Audio and finishing touches will improve it greatly, but that's often wayyyy later in development. Get it working and functioning great, then start dressing it up.

@Janukowycz undead rts I'm making, working title uuuuh Catabothic / Kebrothic

@heinn_dev What game is this?
