Tiny Glade 🏰🌿@pouncelight.bsky.social · 2y agoHey, y'all! Hope you're well and feeling festive ⛄ We've just released a winter update for Tiny Glade, lifting the light count limit and adding the ability to move clutter 🧵
Finally online, the brilliant talk Pondering Orbs by Mikkel Svendsen on the rendering of the similarly brilliant game Cocoon youtu.be/8kS17jt38XQ?...

In our next Tiny Glade update we'll bump the light limit from 32 to 32k while keeping the cost more or less the same. The small limit has been a cop out, as we didn't quite know how to render huge numbers of (screen-space) shadow-casting lights without severe performance degradation.
Here's a recording of my Tiny Glade presentation from the Graphics Programming Conference 2024: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jusW... It's an any% speedrun of our GPU-driven rendering, shadows, global illumination, water, and DoF, involving a few weird tricks.

Hey, y'all! 👋 I'm Tom (or Tomasz if you enjoy Hungarian Notation or Klingon) I cause graphics devices to become lost, and generate all sorts of technical, design & artistic debt in Tiny Glade, together with @anopara.bsky.social, @lydmartin.bsky.social & @odaodaoda.bsky.social
