My gamedev life lately: playtest -> fix tutorial -> repeat

Back from holidays! Working on "long mode" for some furnishings🪑

I'll be speaking today around 7pm in Toulouse🇫🇷 about making games with Bevy, yay! Thanks to @Rust_Toulouse for the invite!

Update: It went better than expected! There is some area for improvement, but the core concept works. Time to put that in the actual game. That's a mission for the Owlycode of tomorrow 😴

This is what an early settlement looks like in Greenfeet Haven's next demo update! 🏘️✨

Tomorrow night is playtest night for Greenfeet Haven! 🔬 I'll be testing the new demo onboarding flow on paper to make sure everything clicks. Wish me luck!

QA Day 2. Enigma of the day: why does Rollo keep sleeping on the ground? 🤯

Morning: Why does this game bug? 😤 Evening: How does this game even work? 🤯

Finished building/room detection today! My brain is fried💀, but heh, it finally works! #gamedev

I've read many game design books lately. But I also want to improve at arts, so here's the next one on my list.

Bringing an idea to a good standard of quality takes A LOT of iterations. Most of the key features of Greenfeet Haven have been rewritten 3 times. Code quality was never the cause of it, only player experience following playtesting.

How shadows work in my game: Every structure has a hidden texture, the "bluer", the higher. Shadow intensity is written in red, and height in blue. The render shader removes every shadow that has a blue value lower than the structure blue value and sets the red-based intensity.

Totally unrelated from game dev news: just got my car back. I'm freeeee! 🚗💨

I've been toying with structure shadows today ☀️. Pretty happy with the result! (yes, they move during the day) #gamedev
