First Performance Update!


Dear shipmates,

Faithful to our plan, we are very happy to announce that work to improve the performance of the rigidity simulation has not only started, but is also showing the first, *very encouraging* results.

We've started writing a multi-part blog post in which we describe not only the hurdles in implementing a mass-spring network simulation, but also our amazing progress in improving Floating Sandbox's spring relaxation algorithm.

We've just published part I of the series, and plan to write the next parts during the following weeks. By following this series you'll get updates on how our work is progressing and what degree of performance enhancement you may expect in the next release!

A house I've built a while ago. :)

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.

Call it 'wrong turn'!🚫 The feeling of running into a house with only one exit🚪, and being doomed to die. #pixelart #pixelartist #pixelartwork #art #pixel #indiegame #IndieGameDev #indieartist

blender animation experimentation, getting the hang of things fast. arms, rig, & gun models by me ofc

Here's a Fredbear sprite i made in Aseprite! I'm pretty proud of this!

(Btw, sorry for the double post! I'll try to post less)

A sneak peek at the new OST, can you guess what this song will be used for? 🤔
