No need to use your imagination anymore, cloud shadows are now accurate ✨ It's such a silly approach and I can't believe it worked, I giggled so much when I got it working

Harry 💬@halisavakis.com · last wk.

Cool thing with the compute shader approach is that I can also hijack the cloud raymarching loop to chuck in some volumetric fog in a different buffer with barely any additional computational cost ✨ Now try to imagine how cooler this would look if those cloud shadows were actually accurate 👀

I was asked about a small breakdown for the 3D anime ramen and realized my breakdown thread was on the cursed site from which I deleted my account 😅 So I'm gonna post a small 🧵 here

Quick tip if you're working with clouds: put them in the scene to contextualize them, cause otherwise you'll drive yourself mad thinking you've made the worst looking clouds in the history of rendering That being said, I guess I like how these clouds look ☁️ #gamedev #madewithunity

Turns out that a big part of cloud rendering is also the authoring, cause procedural noises can only get you so far ☁️ Trying some stuff out with simple shape volumes that add/remove density, but what other method of cloudscape authoring would you like to see? 👀 #gamedev #unity3d #madewithunity

Abelina Game@abelinagame.bsky.social · 2mo ago

My solo dev project Abelina is starting to come together. It’s an adventure platformer (the best genre i promise) with a mature story about mortality, loneliness, and the struggle to be happy.

On the subject of Pride month, fyi, aside from the homophobic/transphobic assaults that took place in the past few days, every sort of social media post regarding Pride is *chock-full* of every sort of slur and verbal assault imaginable. That's how Greece is regarding LGBTQIA+ rights

Saw this in a recent Unity short vid and damn that's more depressing than it should be I remember first year in uni I would *drool* every time there was any sort of workshop or event around gamedev and Unity so I could learn how to do that stuff.

Screenshot from a Unity AI demo showing a user-written prompt saying: Create a working game in Unity. It should be a word guess game. Two letters of the word should be displayed, the rest are hidden. There should be an entry field for the user to type in a letter of their choice. If the letter matches a hidden letter in the word, it appears in the word. If the letter is not present the player looses a life. The player has 3 lives. When they run out of lives it is game over. If the player wins by revealing all the hidden letters in the word, the player gets an extra life. A new random word is then chosen. It should look visually appealing, suitable for a desktop game.

Very inspired by FROM and Elliott McSherry's work, I set up this little playground scene to test out lighting setups, mostly using HAZE ✨ Calling this "The 3 Church Village" cause their losses were so immeasurable they had to build more churches to protect them. #unity3d #madewithunity #gamedev

Unity 3D scene showing a foggy scene set on a rural field. 3 Churches can be seen to the left, center and right of the camera, with the further one in the center being more brightly lit. There's a thick layer of fog covering the scene and an immeasurable amount of makeshift tombs can be seen covering the ground.

There were some rather significant issues with this update especially for versions 6.3 and above but a hotfix has just been released to mitigate those 😅 Sorry for the inconvenience!
