Vampirelands

@_DeceptiveGames Thanks! Right now, we’re mostly unsure about the UX — whether the navigation is intuitive, the interactive elements are clear, and players immediately understand where to click and what each section does.

@vlandsgame This is a good post to ask for feedback on because the intent is clear. From the post, the direction already reads well. What part are you least sure about right now?

Working on the Vampirelands map. An interactive Hero Menu to choose locations and track progress. First draft - thoughts? #gamedev #indiedev #rpg #gameui

@Hevedy @dgant You have an answer in your question 🙃

@vlandsgame @dgant And why you need that and not use directly a directional light with the fog shadows?

Built this in UE5 using MegaLight - look at those god rays in the forest. Worth it or overkill? Follow for dev updates & wishlist on Steam #indiedev #ue5 #unrealengine5 #gamedev #indiegame #solodev #lighting #godrays #wishlist #steam

The difference is just a single checkbox in UE5. Left: Lumen ON Right: Lumen OFF #UnrealEngine #UE5 #Lumen #GameDev #IndieDev #GameDevelopment #EnvironmentArt #RealtimeRendering #3DArt #LevelDesign

@dgant This isn't 2 surface lights though, it's 6 shadow-casting large rect lights in volumetric fog. Shadowed area lights in fog are exactly what MegaLights froxel volume is for

@vlandsgame Does Megalights actually do anything for you here? I would guess nothing since there are only ~two lights?

@aherys In the shipping build, 1080p gives about 150+ frames per second with TSR at 100%, on (RTX 4080, 125W)... We still have a lot to optimize in graphics, but on the other hand, you should be prepared for demanding System Settings if you want to use highly detailed visual

@vlandsgame It render extremely well, grass, ambiance is on point. Performance otherwise.... that seem heavy no ?

I'm developing a solo RPG. Follow me it's really important to me.☺️🙏 Vampirelands is now available to add to your Steam wishlist. #IndieDev #SoloDev #GameDev #IndieGame #DevLog #MadeByOne #IndieRPG #PCGaming #SteamWishlist

@n_k_s_fr Good ear! 🎸 Thanks man 🙏

@vlandsgame Surf curse 🎶 nice choice ! 👍🏻 great job 👏🏻

Indie dev — follow & add to your Steam wishlist! New vid: motion blur — near objects blur, distant stay sharp; prevents ground smear. #indiedev #gamedev #motionblur #steam

@feidoes3d 🔥🙏

@vlandsgame yasss

@YanDaik Velocity-based motion blur with a depth falloff blur scales with object distance so the ground doesn't smear)

@vlandsgame How is this done?

@ColdBanner Appreciate the honest feedback! You're right, but I still kinda wonder why? We're not hiding anything 😄

@vlandsgame Nice work! I checked your steam page and personally I feel like you got way too many screenshots there and they all look great but maybe remove some of them.

@jakedowns Yep! Per-pixel velocity buffer, then scaled by depth so distant stuff stays clean 👍

@vlandsgame using motion vectors?

@jakedowns Thanks!))

@vlandsgame lookin good!

@NEENAmadeit It is on/off, but the trick is the depth-based falloff near blurs, far stays sharp. That part isn't just a toggle 😄

下面是同样一个提示词 同样一个模型 加了这个系统提示词跟没加系统提示词，老外做的一个效果对比 “create a modern Apple style landing page”

4步教你复活 claude fable 5！ 1.下载 fable 5的系统提示词 github.com/elder-plinius/… 2.放到你Claude code 项目文件夹 3. 使用启动命令 claude --dangerously-skip-permissions --system-prompt-file CLAUDE-FABLE-5.md 4.模型切换到 opus 4.8 Max 只需要这4步 你会发现 fable 5 又回来了！

@thdxr You forgot point 7. jun with GPT and the senior with GPT now produce equally bad code, but the junior is cheaper)))

everyone's talking about their teams like they were at the peak of efficiency and bottlenecked by ability to produce code here's what things actually look like - your org rarely has good ideas. ideas being expensive to implement was actually helping - majority of workers have no reason to be super motivated, they want to do their 9-5 and get back to their life - they're not using AI to be 10x more effective they're using it to churn out their tasks with less energy spend - the 2 people on your team that actually tried are now flattened by the slop code everyone is producing, they will quit soon - even when you produce work faster you're still bottlenecked by bureaucracy and the dozen other realities of shipping something real - your CFO is like what do you mean each engineer now costs $2000 extra per month in LLM bills

@AllanChoy2 Its hard to answer more detaled in X)

@vlandsgame Can you go into more detail? Why was the name changed? How has the game evolved?

Hey everyone, We have some exciting news to share that Omnicide Vampire is officially becoming Vampirelands store.steampowered.com/app/1724170?ut… This isn’t just a name change - it’s a reflection of how the game has evolved. Thanks for sticking with us through this journey

@AllanChoy2 We’ve rebranded Omnicide Vampire to Vampirelands! The game has evolved: refined story, new Blizzard like vibes, and a focus on a polished singleplayer (now) experience. Also working on demo & gameplay trailer)
