Trying a sunset mood... Looking good enough that we might give the time of day option to players in the end! ☀️🏝️ #gamedev #proceduralGeneration #art #unity3d #indieDev #steam #multiplayer #indiegamedev #gamedevelopment #indie #sunset

Building a camp, escaping dangerous animals, exploring the unknown island... Who will build the raft first to escape? 🦍 🏝️ #gamedev #proceduralGeneration #unity3d #indieDev #steam #multiplayer #survival #indiegamedev #art #island

Early sketching of props and fun moments in the game.. who does not like coconut falls and tree chopping? 🥥🌴🪓 #gameDev #indieDev #art #indieGames #sketch #drawing #steam #unity3d

Teasing our new game ✨ Online multiplayer, fun social-betrayal moments, procedural generation, survival... In the end, who will escape the island? 🏝️ 💀 #gamedev #proceduralGeneration #unity3d #indieDev #steam #multiplayer #survival #indiegamedev #art

Implementing stuff that I worked on during my PhD on volumetric terrains, but this time for production in a video game. Same problem, different setting and constraints. Super fun!

New Blog post! This one explains our technique for modeling and generating volumetric worlds in the context of a game. 🪨 Overhangs, caves, arches - all those procedurally generated at runtime. 🔗 Link: newheadstudio.com/blog/volumet... #gameDev #proceduralGeneration #unity3d #indieDev #erosion

Reminder that the coding help I need the most for Dear ImGui are related to tech that are foreign to me: Vulkan, OSX, Metal, Android, Linux. Many open issues/pr, need quality brain time, design time, explanations & reviews to close topics rather that have more opened: github.com/ocornut/imgu...

"Il nous semble que 900-1300€ sont des montants modérés, dans la mesure où ils sont bien en deçà des droits payés par les étudiants extracommunautaires qui ont eux-mêmes été considérés comme modérés" Regardez toujours comment on traite les étrangers, parce que ça annonce comment on va vous traiter

Europe must choose between AI and climate goals, data center lobby says

Tech sector says only carbon-emitting gas plants are reliable enough today to power the EU’s AI goals.

C'est marrant, parce que chaque mot pose problème dans cette phrase : - Oui, le dérèglement climatique va nous empêcher de vivre. - Littéralement pour certains. - On n'a pas besoin de conseil mais d'actions. - On n'a pas besoin de perroquet mais de décideurs. - Pour boire de l'eau, il faut en avoir.

I'm attending a digital humanities event in Montreal. There was a keynote on AI and something about the talk made me wonder if it had been written by Claude. I said as much in the Q&A. As I posed the question, the speaker shifted, looking slightly uncomfortable. What he said next shocked the room +

In gamedev, we're used to sound coming from single points in space, but how do we handle sound coming from an irregular shape? In this article (with plenty code snippets), I go into details with the Point Cloud Sound technique I'm using for water and foliage: blog.runevision.com/2026/06/poin...

Le dramaturge dit regretter cette décision alors que le spectacle avait été «programmé, validé, intégré à la saison» théâtrale. L’élu d’extrême droite Florian Azéma invoque sa «totale liberté de revenir sur cette programmation».

4 years ago we set up our studio @bloomandgloom.bsky.social. Now we are 10 people, and announce our first game Into the Wind! Check it out (and wishlist if you want to) on Steam here: store.steampowered.com/app/2843060 #indiegame #gamedev #intothewindgame #indiedev

this is actually a very good article

First dev blog! This one's about our procedural scattering technique for creating nice natural scenes. Let us know what you think - way more posts coming, on all aspects of procedural generation ✨ newheadstudio.com/blog/object_... #proceduralGeneration #unity3d #indieDev #gameDev #devBlog

Introducing some hierarchical aspect to the object scattering... Now trees can spawn objects around them in a given circle: rocks, pebbles, bushes, or even other trees 🌴 Writing a small blog post to explain in more details 👀Coming out soon! #unity3d #proceduralGeneration #indieDev #gameDev

Having fun with simple natural object scattering rules 😁

When dealing with noisy and/or partial inputs to describe a shape, the standard approach in geometry processing is to reconstruct a clean implicit surface first, and to do geometry on it. But why this one in particular? What about all the other surfaces that would have been coherent with the input?

Better late than never - check out our work on fluid simulation for digital painting in our Eurographics paper 🖌️ A watercolor painting prototype with a fluid and pigment sim., with nice emerging dripping effects! Link: eliemichel.github.io/dripping-thi... #computerGraphics #fluid #research #paint

More objects, more placement rules, more variety... Looks surprisingly good for such simple code! ⛰️ #proceduralGeneration #gameDev #indieDev #unity3d

Putting trees & grass-like objects on the procedural island 🌳🌿🌴 Poisson sampling for trees (actual objects), random for the grass (instanced draw). With the lake, this already gives a nice forest ambience! ✨Much more to come, stay tuned ✨ #proceduralGeneration #unity #indieDev #gameDev

L'aveuglement volontaire continue. On a actuellement des IA qui résolvent des conjectures mathématiques, on m'explique que, par définition, elles ne peuvent faire que des synthèses sur le sujet qu'on leur donne.

J'écris un article de blog où j'explique que des enseignantes universitaires ont trouvé qu'une copie produite par IA est très bonne, au-delà des étudiants de licence usuels. Des gens m'expliquent dessous que l'IA ne peut produire que des copies passables. Le déni, encore une fois.

Testing instance drawing from C# for grass-like objects🏞️ Super efficient - although we'll need to sample elevation later. Nice thing: we can render different objects w/ varying quantities. Second half shows a field filled with beautiful flowers 🌸 #proceduralGeneration #unity #gameDev #indieDev

Trying a simple lake algorithm 🌊 Limited to convex shapes for now but still looks pretty nice. Surface has with a proper mesh and a dedicated shader. Next step will be to populate islands environment assets🌴🪨 #proceduralGeneration #procGen #indieDev #gameDev
