Frontier Maintenance Work, Step 3


Dear Shipmates,

The work for maintaining ships' frontiers is finally complete! Here's a video showcasing the last step in the development of these algorithms:

These have been quite a few exhausting weeks, designing the various frontier algorithms, coding them, testing the results, and optimizing the code. We are so tired now that we've decided to have a little "vacation" and code away a new, funny feature that has been on the Floating Sandbox wishlist for a long time. We're not going to disclose much at this moment, but let's just stay that it's a feature which, technically, has little to do with sinking ships...

We'll probably post a teaser once the "vacation" is over and we're ready to start working on hydrodynamics.

Stay tuned!

Sneak Peek at the New Water Flood Algorithm

Floating Sandbox at LVL UP Expo 2025!

We are under attack!

Quantum precognition is one of the most powerful cards. End game cards & equipment. Demo/alpha build boss is no match for this deck.

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Why walk when you can jump?

Spaaaace~

These are background sprites I've created for a game I'm working on at school ^w^ Click on the post to see how the sprites connect. You won't regret it! (personally, I think it's pretty heheh)

Drawn in Piskel using my mouse. Whaddya think?

If you have more of an acquired taste, the restaurants in Niravasi have you covered! Maybe skip the salad bar, though.
