Introducing map-based Climate


Happy to share that I’ve been working on some solid ideas to take this game forward!

I’ll talk about one today and others later as they get implemented.

So now the map has a concept of “poles” and climate that varies according to the latitude. Near the north and south poles, you get ice, and in equator a lot more heat (desert). This has direct influence on the simulation and each tiles “win” over others. Like this it will be nicer to create spots for certain life forms. The map is still infinite, but going up or down will just get you ice Smiley

Two new tiles have been introduced: Ice and Tundra. Which means I’ll also introduce 2 or 3 new animal species soon to make this their habitat Smiley

here’s a small gif scrolling from the north pole to the equator

Here's a peaceful little forest scene for this #screenshotsaturday, from the beginning of the game.

Enemies can also suddenly spawn through Realm Rifts. These Rift Spawns are going to be stronger than the ones wandering around. TBD on the enemies... #screenshotsaturday #godstear #madewithunity

Have a good Boi

I was bored, so... ManutKat.

A Shiny Mega Gengar 🌟 For @ManutkArt 's #ThreeColorsChallenge!

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

It nicely separates the snowy biome from the grassy one.

It's built with painted Ebonstone.

Very ambitious construction going on in Planet Zoo on Plays today. We're tryin'. LIVE: www.twitch.tv/dreamhackplays
