They added AI to the Windows Notepad?? And Paint??

That's so beautiful...

Did some graphical overhaul of the game:
+ Move from SSAO to mesh-based AO.
+ Triplanar artificial lighting was added to create atmosphere.
+ subtle Matcap effect to better distinguish shapes.
Will do particles, point lights, color variation and water overhaul next.

Was showcasing the new sitting feature, but the Mayor stole my seat.

Stone regeneration is tricky in resource management games where the immersive factor is important.

In my game, when it rains, giant snails come out, carrying boulders on their backs. And as the storm ends, they disappear and leave the stones behind. 🐌🌧️

Made a foliage shaking effect for when some entity passes through it to add extra atmosphere.

Thank you!!! I appreciate it

Thanks for the comment! It was supposed to take a day of work at first and ended up being an endless refactoring hell. That's how it usually goes I guess 😪

For the past month, I’ve been working on the horizontal & vertical communication system between rooms.
It’s been quite tricky to tackle all the edge cases, but essentially, doors & ladders create holes in their rooms to connect with other adjacent rooms and form passages.

Some creature models for my game: an ant, a chicken, a sheep, and a slug (with a tiny buddy).

I try to be really consistent with the blocky shapes, stylized textures, and the 'no-legs' design consistent—either floating or crawling.

I wanna sit here for the whole day.

The random be-e-e-eh it's supposed to be a sheep outside of the room hahaha

Here’s a first look at the decoration system in my game. Most assets are placeholders for now, but I’m planning to add multiple block shapes so players can create mosaic-like patterns on their walls.

Thanks!!! 💚

Proof of Concept of the Indoor/Outdoor system!!!

Thanks! Yes, currently chunks are loaded and rendered in the same frame, so I could probably get smarter with how I handle that as you say. Will give that a try!

Yeah, according to the profiler the whole instantiation process takes like 10% of the time, which would give a noticeable boost. I'm pretty sure the rest is just code optimizations (or doing async stuff (which I'm avoiding haha)). Thanks for the tip!

Path-node procedural map generation system. Took me a while to get it working, still freezes for a tiny moment when loading and saving chunks tho.

Happy 10 years of Over the Garden Wall 🍂

That's very smart, thank you!

Yeah, will definitely try it with physics. Thanks for the insight!

It does feel very static. Also makes me think the leaves need a lot more movement upon hit. Thanks!

Wood chopping in my game - still tweaking it, but it’s getting there!
Any tips for making it feel extra satisfying?

Be sure to keep it lit 🕯️
