basie - Twitch a lemmings-like in Rust & Bevy :: in which we refuse to be defeated by compute shader pipelines

so it turns out yesterday was not the day. but today will be! maybe. perhaps. more compute shader goodness. twitch.tv/basie youtube.com/live/peFl2ai...

basie - Twitch a lemmings-like in Rust & Bevy :: will we get collision detection done today?

today is the day. the day that compute shader collision detection finally works. i have decreed it, therefore it must come to pass. twitch.tv/basie youtube.com/live/EIAiDZJ...

did you know #smolsurvivors is out? today. #smolsurvivors is out today. it's today, that #smolsurvivors is out. you should buy it. it is good. you can get bee powerups. the bees become more durable. it is a thing. also, cheese.

compute shaders, you say?

why, certainly

i've heard of those

basie - Twitch a lemmings-like in Rust & Bevy :: refactor, then collision detection

now that we finally have "destructible" environment via fragment shaders, it's time to refactor, then push on with collision detection via compute shader twitch.tv/basie

basie - Twitch a lemmings-like in Rust & Bevy :: compute shader for collision detection

we have a compute shader that spits out zeroes! this is progress. but i feel there are better things ahead. let's try collision detection twitch.tv/basie

did you think we already had enough complexity? NO, I say we don't! therefore, having mastered the art of the very-simple-five-line-fragment-shader, today we move on to mastering the art of the very-simple-five-line-compute-shader. It can only lead to great success... right?

turns out GPUs can render to images as targets. turns out this is called a render target. turns out that makes quite a bit of sense as a name for something that renders to a target. how does this all work? let's stumble around in the dark a bit and find out.

2D shaders again: how do masks work? I feel like I have a mental model but no practical experience. So what else is new...

basie - Twitch a lemmings-like in Rust & Bevy :: destructible environment, part 2: GPU version?

mornin'!

can the destructible environment stuff be done on the GPU? twitch.tv/basie

basie - Twitch a lemmings-like in Rust & Bevy :: figuring out the destructible environment

ok back on the bandwagon, let's figure out how this destructible environment works (by copying smarter people's code as usual) twitch.tv/basie

basie - Twitch a lemmings-like in Rust & Bevy :: studying Lemmings creator Mike Dailly's videos for tips

It turns out Lemmings creator Mike Dailly published videos documenting a recreation in Game Maker! Checking those out to "borrow" information...

Happy New Year! Let's try to grok a bit more Avian2D.

basie - Twitch a lemmings-like in Rust & Bevy :: basic physics 101

it's not even 2025 yet, there's still time for <activity you've been putting off>

twitch.tv/basie

Physics. Ye cannae disobey the laws thereof. Let's get some Avian workin'.

Why didn't you list that among our assets in the first place?

Turns out it's easy to buy me gifts. Streamin' beanie for summer sorted.

basie - Twitch some leftover overlay work, then back to gamedev

Would I do something like forget to mention I was streaming? Of course not! That would be the act of someone suffering from "holiday brain".

But, just by the way...

Finishing overlay work and moving back to the new game! twitch.tv/basie

I feel that it's important to ask if this description is in any way accurate... 🫠

basie - Twitch overlay day :: Rust & Bevy

it's overlay day! much-needed maintenance, upgrade to Bevy 0.15, let's see if we can refine this mess a bit twitch.tv/basie

I am actually a liability at this time of year.

Avian 0.2 is out! (Let's just call it 2.0?)

basie - Twitch today, we begin anew :: wizened old gamer learns Bevy gamedev :: brand new project

It's time to start something new.

It's been a year since @piratesoftware.live told us it was OK to "just go make games". I know how to make the box move on the screen.

Six months from now, on my 53rd birthday, I'll release an open source @bevyengine.org game.

You got it! Who's better than you? Nobody!

Hello. We streamin'. Still workin' through the #adventofcode in Rust, with a little Bevy Engine sprinkle around the edges.

Does a call to `dbg!()` to print the answer from a Bevy system count as using Bevy? Cool, thought so.
