It's a little thing, but these boulders previously didn't have a "death" animation. So they would just kind of disappear.

With the art refresh, they now crumble as one would expect. All thanks to Blender's particle and physics systems. We really are blessed to have such and incredible tool for free.

Getting back to Flare dev after taking a bit of a break for the summer (Umamusume hit me like a freight train).

The "HD" art is getting there. I finished the rest of the snow tileset today, so that means all the original tilesets are complete.

I've also made an in-engine map generator. The system places pre-built "chunks" connected by "links". I plan to use this for a new dungeon in v1.15. Accessible from the start, but ties into the main story later.

Extremely exciting to see something built with #flarerpg take shape.

Andrew's been doing a fantastic job of pushing the boundaries of the engine. It's been pushing me to adapt new features and improve performance in way that I might not otherwise if I was just working on the Empyrean Campaign.

Did you have a lazy summer? Over at OpenTTD HQ, we did not!

We've been busy building bridges over stations, rerouting ships traveling in opposite directions, improving the user interface, adding support for NewGRF Badges, and fixing bugs.

Come help us test our work!

FlightGear's new rendering pipeline is amazing in the nightly builds!

I'm looking for #opensource #games that are first person shooters but on the tactical genre. I want to play with my friend who has PowerPC, but he's an expert on arena-like FPS, and I would like something more tactical and slow. Does anyone have any recommendations?

1.19.14 has been released. This update adds additional animations for the Dunefolk Horse Archer, Marauder, Raider, Rider, Windbolt, Firetrooper, and Scorcher. Additionally, you can now save a scenario and its settings as a game preset by clicking the Save Preset button in the game creation screen; saved presets can then be viewed and used in a new tab in the multiplayer lobby.

As usual, for more details see https://r.wesnoth.org/t59527

We are looking for people who could help us with creation of new mobs by contributing 3D models (rigged, animated and UV-mapped meshes). More information at https://git.minetest.land/VoxeLibre/VoxeLibre/issues/5279

Don't worry, we're still alive. We're just taking a well-deserved break. Happy summer to all and keep on racing!

#SpeedDreams #OpenSourceGame #SimRacing

I've been playing around optimizing the temperature simulation. That's right, it's a full fledged simulation within the game! It's not only particular rooms that get cold... the cold spreads!

The stairs were not taken into account before, and there were some problems on choke points. So now I have optimized this to get a fast spread (so it doesn't take forever), and also fast in CPU terms (<1ms in my CPU).

What is shown in the video is a debug mode to understand and visualize temp flow - that's not part of the final game.

#Unhaunter #bevy #indiedev #foss

I just published #Unhaunter 0.3.1-beta1, my game made in #bevy for ghost investigation. If anyone wants to play it, take a look on https://www.unhaunter.com/beta - win/linux/browser - and let me know if there's anything that should be fixed before calling it stable.

As usual I did a ton of testing but some bugs are just hard to find.

The game is totally free and open source.

1.19.13 has been released! This update includes attack, defend, and standing animations for the Dune Rover as well as fixes the game crashing when hovering over the grey bat in SotA, among other changes.

As usual, for more details see https://r.wesnoth.org/t59373

And the engine's still getting improvements, too. Andrew Teo's upcoming "ShadowRush" has a lot of unique gameplay ideas that are pushing what we can do with the engine. Really looking forward to seeing more of it as it develops.

Also been tackling the snow tileset. It's basically structured the same as the grassland set, but rubberduck made several tiles that are exclusive to this set.

#flarerpg #ScreenshotSaturday #gamedev #arpg #opensource

Getting back into updating Flare's assets. Added animated water to the grassland tileset, which I think turned out even better than the cave tileset's water. Though, maybe still a little too dark?

A bit more on the mouse support for #Unhaunter - now I added a bit of pathfinding, waypoints... feels a bit more natural. The interactive elements are highlighted too. Hope it is intuitive.

I will probably release a new beta this weekend so people can test this. Reminder: The game is free, you can download it for Windows/Linux or play it on the browser: www.unhaunter.com

#bevy #foss #game #indiedev

I've been doing some work to make my game #Unhaunter work with the mouse, so you can aim, point and walk to, or interact. Still a proof of concept though.

What do you think?
