Experimenting with some textures!


Experimenting with some textures! I am aiming for the shader doing most of the visual candy job in the game. That means using only the most basic textures, and freeing up some graphics memory. And recently I tried different ones for metal surfaces - and the results are here:

  • Only color - solid color, no textures. Look a bit basic, not really like a metal piece, but might be ok for some small details.

  • More realistic metal texture - diffuse texture that gives rough, worn out metal look. Looks too detailed for the cartoon style I'm going for.

  • Edited metal texture - same diffuse texture edited down to keep a fear wear marks. Looks better, gives it some texture while not being too detailed.

  • Edited metal texture + normal texture - diffuse and a normal to define nails and metal sheets. Looks more like a metal surface, I think I'm keeping this one! But let's try some other things too.

  • Edited metal texture + normal texture + rust and wear normal. Gives the surface a bumpy look, might be a bit too detailed.

  • Edited metal texture + normal texture + metallic texture. Is supposed to give the surface a metal shine but looks weird with the shader . Might experiment with creating a "fake" metal shine through diffuse later on though.

Delved deeper into spline usage and came up with this hallway spawner. It places any number of objects along the line (here I have floors, walls and wall supports on both sides). Allows for some faster corridor creation!

A fun little effect for flowing coffee. It uses 2 types of particles - a mesh for small bits and a sprite for liquid.

Setting up the storage environment, with a cake as a centerpiece for one of the rooms.

Madeline is the main protagonist of the mountain climbing platformer, Celeste. The game has been praised for its visuals, gameplay, and introspective narrative. The game's creator Maddy Thorson confirmed that Madeline is trans in 2020.

Jumping around the hallway!

Happy Video Game Day!

July 8 is Video Game Day, a holiday that's obviously close to our hearts at Game Jolt.

Celebrate by completing our quests! They won't be around long, so get the rewards while you can.

Depot entrance corridor coming up nicely!

Taking a brief break from working on JICE to walk outside, touch some grass, all that stuff. Here are some cool old gifs though!

Dive into the cozy post-apocalyptic open world of Critter Cove!

Gentleman Rat Studios (@GR-Rob ) describe it as “a little bit Animal Crossing, a little bit Stardew Valley. Maybe even a little bit Windwaker, too."

Added lines for the character for the second level of the game
