First step to developing on #SteamDeck : launch a simple rendering demo of my render layer.
Next step : the custom engine.

My eye shader isn't perfect yet, it's just une simple PBR material with clearcoat.
Here's a slightly improved version, but I'm not completely happy with the result.

Running the "Digital Emily" model from the @matmadnessart.bsky.social's HumanShaders Godot plugin in my engine.
It looks pretty good to me.

Thanks, I'm trying to follow the path laid out by older games like Doom, Half-Life, ...

I'm trying a create a new environnement inspired by Control of @remedygames.com

Don't blindly trust the #Microsoft Win32 documentation, it automatically switches to the local language.
And sometimes, the translation is the opposite of the English version.
So don't forget to switch the documentation to English.

Since the beginning of my gizmos in my engine, something visual was missing and it was not the priority to add it.
But I took the time to add these little things and it's cooler.

I added sounds and interactive objects to my cave test scene.

By chance, I may have created the first piece of a survival game by assembling Polyhaven meshes.

I'm playing with the particle system and create an alien/portal smoke effect and colorful sparks.

I'm creating a simple level to test my GI (global illumination) in my engine and it comes out with a #HalfLife vibe, but that's a coincidence 🙄

Hyped to be a part of this BANGER compilation of custom #3D game engines, made from scratch, WITHOUT the use of #Unity #Unreal or #Godot. Take a look at what's *actually* possible for #IndieGameDev with own technology. www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9qK...

GP-Direct 2025 (Graphics Programming Showcase) is online with my engine in it🥳

YouTube video by Graphics Programming GP-Direct 2024 - Graphics Programming Showcase

I'm thrilled to announce that GP-Direct, the Internet's most exciting graphics showcase, is back and has received all clips for 2025!

We will soon be releasing our final video just as soon as we finish editing. Here's last years video! #indiegamedev #graphics

First truly functional weapons system to my engine.
Next (big) step : adding ennemies and more weapons

I get good results in my engine with old school global illumination (offline computing of SH probes) .
I still have light leaks, but I'll try to reduce them.

You can look for ARkit blendshapes ;) arkit-face-blendshapes.com

No tutorial, but for this video :
- I used Blender and Human Generator 3D with a big custom clean/setup/export script
- I used ElevenLabs for the voice
- I'm using SAiD library to convert the wav to blendshapes coeffs
- And finally importing everything in the engine

I have 51 face position (jaw opened, smiling, left eye closed right right closed, ....) and I mix each face positions (blend shapes) with a coefficient generated by a Wav to ARKit soft.

Thanks :)

I fulfilled a dream, I implemented my own facial animation system in my engine.
A dream I had since the release of #HalfLife 2 in 2004.

For the second time this week, I reworked my PBR integration in my engine and added some subsurface scattering.
Now I'm happy with the result.

Just for fun, I reopened a previous level prototype and added my new glass shader.

First step for old school global illumination : Cubemap rendering.
#indiegame #gamedev #globalillumination

Finally, I can play videos (old school MPEG-1) in my engine, thanks to @phoboslab for pl_mpeg, an easy to use library.
Now I just need to find a game use case for video playing :)

I'm working on the main menu for my Backrooms game, what do you think ?

This week I reached the 3000th commit to my engine git repository. 🥳
Here is the commit comment : Rework Node/Scene manager
#GameDev #IndieGameDev #SoloDev #Engine

Hum, I think it's time to commit some changes :D

I place boxes on my scene and use them to create frustums to cull objects behind them.
And thanks, I'm trying to create some found footages of liminal spaces or backrooms, but in realtime.
