Congrats man!

The render graph can be customized by adding custom render passes to different stages (i.e. background, opaque, transparent).

Asset manager hot-reloads shaders and other resources on change. Generated assets, shaders, textures etc. all reside in the assetmgr and referenced from there.

Alright, 10 days after spinning the cube I have built a multi-pass render graph system that is completely data-driven :) Visuals aren't the most exciting to look at yet but I'm proud of the architecture✨ #gamedev #indiedev #sdl3 #icosphere

Here is a cube, from my renderer to you💜 #gamedev #indiedev

This is against all common advice that "you should just focus on the game" but I like having an "engine" that I fully understand and boots up in under a second :)

colored triangle rendered with SDL3 GPU API

First triangle with SDL3 GPU! Took a long time to develop a GPU API abstraction layer and implementing the first backend with SDL. The idea is to implement platform specific devices (Vulkan, DX12) if need be (i.e. raytracing, compute). Finally a bit more comfortable with modern gpu APIs 😅 #gamedev

Simulating the rich world on a dedicated server is more of a bottleneck than bandwidth imho. We had to constantly optimize server-side gameplay code on TheDivision1/2 to maintain a good experience, bandwidth was seldom an issue.

I also switched to a MacBook Air M3 for development and absolutely loving it! 😍

Miro mindmap showing the rough plan for implementing an HTN planner.

HTN planner in my custom framework

The big one was AI players :) I am a network/multiplayer programmer by profession, so this was uncharted territory for me. I discovered the "HTN Planner" and started hacking away. The idea is to have a system where a designer can build NPC behavior with node system. #gamedev #htnplanner

Miro mindmap showing a cut feature, items are redacted

First was an "order system" which tracked all supply and demand, this proved to be way too complicated and didn't bring a whole lot of depth or feeling of fun so I had to kill it.

It's been a month since my last update so I want to leave a log entry here :) I've been working hard on the project, specifically two items from the Miro board took a lot of time.

Looks amazing! 🤩

Miro mind mapping for game design ftw! Now I just need to implement all of this 😅 #gamedesign

I ❤️ SDL

Thank you so much! ☺️ I’ll share more frequently 🤝

Some progress on my space strategy/trading game, where you create industry, establish trade routes and influence population with a simple supply/demand system. Planets deep-fold.itch.io/pixel-planet... 🌏 Awesome icons from @dgbaumgart.bsky.social 🙌

Just realized before going on stage last night that 5th of January was my 10th year in Malmö 🥲

I moved from Istanbul for work, made a lot of good friends, had tons of fun, some tough days too but wouldn’t change anything at all. Here’s to a great 2025 and 10 more!🍸🍾 #gottnyttår #godfortsättning

ouff Cool Spot 😎 loved the look of that game haha

This was just an initial start to explore and develop into what I have in mind. I also constrained myself to a simple custom framework with SDL2, entt, C++. Just simple shapes and (somewhat) nice text rendering :)

Goods are represented by colors (there is only 4 of them). Node color shows what that system produces, the hovering box shows what it needs. The player collects and drops off and gains fuel.

I had started making a simple (and stupid) prototype for a strategy/trade/industry game in space. The idea is that the player creates trade routes and develops industry over a starmap etc. Here is the initial "thing" from some time ago. #gamedev #indiedev #strategy

thanks! 🙌🥰

My aim for 2025 is to create and share as much as possible. And I'd like to open it with a live recording of our funky banger "I Need" from my band "Çok Eym" (weird name i know😅)
