Exploring Substrate in UE5.7

Simple soap bubble using thin-film interference and a thickness mask from Substance Designer.
HDRI + Lumen lighting, everything else is coming from the material.

A fun test case for what Substrate can do.

I know procedural is all the rage now. But after working in substance designer exclusively for a few weeks...
I just felt like making my tiling textures by hand.

Some old school sculpting in blender.

Thank you to everyone who participated in our second playtest! We had a blast making new friends and running around the ESS Starseeker 🚀

Didn't get a chance to join? Don't worry, we'll have more details on the public beta coming next month.

Last week was a dream.

After years of doodling and noodling, seeing people dive into these planetary expeditions as a space station crew was incredible.

Huge thanks to everyone who tested and shared feedback; we are already refining and improving.

I am so proud of System Era.

Onward! 🚀

working on some cute UI elements ✨🌯

how it started: how it's going:

Station work continues! Excited to invite some of you onto the ESS Starseeker for an internal playtest later this year 🚀⏰

Every. Single. Video. Game. Has columnar basalt as an oppressive thematic zone.

It's the default, "hey this is a weird rock formation". Since we have the luxury of being a space game about alien worlds we can come up with something similar but cooler than that to make sure we stand out.

I was very serious. Made an impassioned speech and everything.

If you vote for Columnar Basalt I know longer recognize your opinion...

We had our first internal friends and family server playtest at the end of 2025!!! That means we will start running public betas soon. Make sure to sign up for access at starseekergame.com

made a fun little godot-blender viewport camera sync miniapp

no addons on either side, no build steps, just a single js module file that's loaded in tauri that has code in all 6 languages (html, css, js, python, gdscript, bash)

Pen drawing that fills a page with large, unearthly looking shapes that intertwine with each other into a dense scene with shell like structures, large hollows almost with an insectoid eye cluster type appearance with the most prominent features being a mostly hidden skull on the left and right of center is a more prominent and visible humanoid skull. This skull is implied to be massive based on the figures standing in the eye sockets and the appearance that it is at the end of a trail while the skull and walkway is rising above out of twisted root like structures, fleshy sacks and other features. Standing out of these is an almost carved theatre style mask set in a frieze with an arch of skulls over it and seemingly supporting the trail.
