The Kanibozu shotgun is theoretically pump-action, but to imitate slam-firing I programmed it as fully automatic with a really long cycle so it gets a big obnoxious recoil pattern of its own!

The other day I added recoil patterns to the guns, here's how it looks for the M2013 SMG. #ScreenshotSaturday
CounterStrike was an unexpected source of inspiration for this, but I really don't like how ADS makes you play.

I've wrapped up with guns so I'm moving on to adding enemies. Added them to collision traces for some hot cylinder-on-cylinder action!

The first version of my current side project was made in a week-long jam during which only the last day and a half were spent actually writing any code off a fork of an engine I wrote in C.
No chatbots were needed or involved at any stage. This has always been possible.

people have been doing game jams which span over a couple days for yeeeeeaaaaaaaars. People don't need AI to make cool shit in a short time.

Adding some much nicer menus.
I don't want to end up with a terminal case of side-project-itis but I still want to polish this up a bit and add some combat so I'm putting a strict deadline of three more weeks for any additions.

Prototyped a little conversation system. Big success frankly, it won't take much work to port this back onto the main branch.
Having characters talk like this is so magical, really adds a personal touch that my last game was missing! #ScreenshotSaturday #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #enginedev

New video for #screenshotsaturday: I've ported in Ctesiphon's system for lighting entities as they move around. Adding a gun to demonstrate meant I couldn't help myself but add some bobbing to it. #gamedev #enginedev #solodev #indiedev

Ported the old particle system to my new engine. Practically unchanged for the last ten years except for how I store the definitions.

A late update for #ScreenshotSaturday. I refactored all my mixing and decoding to be done on miniaudio's own thread instead of the needlessly complicated triple-buffered system I had before. It's also allowed me to add a simple low-pass filter. #gamedev #indiedev #solodev #enginedev

After eight, long months I've finally gotten back to one these WIPs. Tried a slightly different shading technique to what I usually use and I think it paid off big.

I added the classic push-style buttons from Quake where you can activate them by bumping into them. I'm intending to instead have the kind you interact with via a use key but this was easy enough to set up along the way.

Yeah sure, being able to walk around on and jump off of moving platforms is pretty cool...
But what about doing the same on SPINNING platforms!?

Videogame Remake Culture continues to operate on the core paradox that both "Games used to be better" and "Every single modern design convention is necessary for a game to be good" are somehow simultaneously true.
Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis, a remake of the first game, is getting RPG skill trees, crafting mechanics and a 'focus meter'

This week was all about getting the different brush models in the map moving, along with having them push you around. Here I've got these double doors set up with an overlap trigger brush to open and close automatically.
