How player content works in The Sapling


The Sapling was built from the ground up with community interaction in mind. This interaction goes both ways: players can take stuff generated by or for the game, and use it in their own creations, or they can add their own creations to the game.

This article https://thesaplinggame.com/devlogs/playercontent.html functions as an in-depth guide on how to do this, to be used as reference. It's a living document that will be updated continuously. If you find any things that are unclear or just incorrect, or have more ideas you want to share with other creators, drop me a line at [email protected] .

Overview of the information on that page:

  1. Repurposing material from the game

    1. Music

    2. Exporting lifeforms and animations generated by the game

    3. Using gameplay statistics from the API

  2. Extending the game

    1. Scenarios

    2. Body parts

    3. How to create asset bundles

Updated the chest in the maze, adding sound, particles and better animation. But what's in the chest?

Regular exercise is key for healthy wings.

An infected room from the second part of Cybel ! Are you up for some cleansing?

Some time ago, we posted a screenshot of the Mexico level. A curiosity about it is that, like some other scenarios of the game, it was inspired by a real landscape, The Basaltic Prisms of Santa María Regla. It is one of the natural wonders of the country!

I just wanted to introduce you to my latest musical production and hear some opinions about it. Thank you very much.

Ladies & gentlemen.. The Blender logo factory! I had a ton of un making this animation. I'll be making a short tutorial on picking up/dropping object in Blender for animations next week! What do you think?

What Are You Doing In My Swamp!?

Now spruce forest monsters can vomit forest shields, but Brutal Castle will not stop!
