Every October, I disappear to the province where the internet is poor or completely unavailable. I stay off the grid until December, then return to the city. Ciao!

Sometimes what changes us the most isnโ€™t the big twist, but a single line that invites us to see things differently.

I've already initialized the Vulkan API, as mentioned in my previous post about my GameDev journey-building a pet 2D mini engine using Vulkan API and C#.

Today, I successfully completed the device creation step,
and it feels really great! ๐Ÿ˜Š

Quick look at some of the capabilities exposed:

Added static enemies that exist in the world, plus the ones that spawn and attack your town.

The loop is tower defence > build a strong enough city > explore the world Diablo style > return with loot to upgrade towers.

I've been working on the rest of Stage 2 this week. It's almost done, so next week I'll start making the boss. I started around mid-August, so I guess each stage takes me about two months.๐Ÿ”จ

Seems like it was just yesterday, a must play on Wii U, including TTP HD. I hope both will be released on Switch 2.

I'm not pretty sure, but I think it's the fallback of rendering API. If Vulkan is not present, it will use DirectX for Windows and down to OpenGL ES 3 if everything fails.

It's not perfect, but I think Super Mario Bros. ๐Ÿค  it disrupted the gaming industries, even console crash in 1983 and, of course, populaziring the side scrolling platform game genre and establishing a successful franchise.
