New blog site (with RSS!), and

UPDATE ON MESH CONTOURS! I've rewrote that whole part of my star blog article on how to render lines for games, by adding my own PhD work that makes it now possible in realtime!

Read it AGAIN!

There were still some 3D games with positioning like older Monster Hunter and Armored Core games but with time they've all made turning faster, tracking on enemies more common and put more emphasis on invulnerabity/burst movement to deal with attacks.

Because of this there is no longer the concept of "positioning" in a 1v1 encounter, there is only "spacing". Until the enemy gets locked in an animation that prevents rotation there are no safe spots, only safe distances.

Starting to think one of the biggest mistakes action games have made in the PS2 era is making aligning your facing direction to the target near instant for both you and enemies. Despite adding a dimension the y-axis of games like Final Fight completely vanished, you have distance but not alignement.

Hi, have you ever found those Spikeout camera patents? I've actually been curious how it works in that game.

Checking this week's Next Fest games has taught me I need to make my game more evil.

At the rate I'm going model is still months away from being done but at least he looks COOL #lowpoly #gamedev

What the past few months have taught me is deciding to take a break from programming to focus purely on 3D modeling was a terrible idea, now I'm burnt out on one and rusty on the other. Had to remove a variable from the messiest part of the code and I have no idea if that broke anything or not.

No matter how much game dev advice I read warning against tying the game's speed to the physics framerate this fighting gamer's brain cannot handle the idea of speed tweaks leading to slightly different collision outcomes. I've seen what speed can do to anti-air situations.

Moved the default physics framerate of my game to 90 so that players can alter the game's speed adjusting it up and down a decent amount without it going under 60.
Now hoping Godot adds a version of move_and_slide without pre-multiplied delta before release so I don't have to learn C++ myself...

I have a new dev-blog post up on Steam, where I talk about the differences between games that offer a guided intro to the mechanics versus those that invite the player to explore without being too directed, and why we specifically chose the latter for PSI.

Slow progress but I'm very happy with the floof.

Chibis or chibus, depending on which part of the country you come from.

Every episode has like two or more scenes that feel instantly iconic it's so good.
Shut up, Lu Bu.

I need to find a way to reintroduce drawing practice in my daily routine because being 7 hours into a piece that was meant to be a 1 hour break from modeling is a strain on my sanity.

The price for all this Action Game genre name drama is that I don't have an easy hashtag to click when looking for new ones.

Had to take a break on mine today because of a headache, glad someone else's also feeling it.
