Didn't expect #Godot area lights to blow up now, but this demo by @passivestar.bsky.social is beautiful! For those new to my acc: the area light PR is my Master's Thesis, I've worked on it for more than 1 year practically fulltime without pay - now, it could be merged any day! 🥹 Support me below!

The trailer Addy Valentine just dropped for his @kickstarter.com action-mystery 3D pixel-art game is simply incredible. He's also the one singing! Consider also supporting the campaign to get more unique creative games out there. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0R9F...

Introducing FragCoord: My ultimate shader editing tool!

Finally got For Each working in my 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝗱𝗲-𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗿 for @unity.com! Per-scope cache and iteration state were a headscratcher. Other features: • Dataflow across foreach scopes • Custom Generics implementation via node type dropdown • No compilation step • Zero repeat evaluations

Fun 5 hour sidequest of adding UInt support to texture visualization in the WebGPU Inspector browser extension, all in an attempt to debug my Unity GBuffer packing. @brendanduncan.bsky.social thanks for making the extension and making it open source! I'll complete this and submit a pull request.

"You will own nothing and be happy." We must not get complacent or this becomes the case for all things we once owned.

I'm gonna be attending the graphicsprogrammingconference.com in Breda, Netherlands this year. My first ever conference! Any chance I'll be able to meet anyone from here?

I feel sick to my stomach making this post, but at this point I don't have a choice docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Saw that "The Witcher 4" UE5 tech demo with the voxel trees for fast rendering at a distance? I figured... that should be easy to do in TinyBVH. :) So now TinyBVH can do voxel meshes. Attached video: CPU-only, switching between BVH and voxels. Code in tiny_bvh_foliage.cpp: github.com/jbikker/tiny...

Custom water update for my VR game. Unity 6, URP, Quest 3 native. #madewithunity #water #quest3 #vr

Hola again graphics peeps! 😊 I found myself with enough bits and pieces related to text rendering to warrant a write-up. So here it is! 😱 osor.io/text Spiced up with direct vector rendering, sub-pixel anti-aliasing, run-time atlas packing, temporal accumulation, and more! I hope you enjoy it! 🧡

I have been making some decent progress on my Ocean Shader's new Wave Editor. Currently, it's just a port of the auto-generator script, but now includes preview screens to make sure lower resolution settings still look coherent. Next up, making the Wave Settings editor! #Indiedev #Unity #Shader

WE'RE OFFICIALLY PAST 1300 FOLLOWERS IT'S ALMOST TIME 2 POST THE LAUNCH DATE????

How does ROLLBACK NETCODE work, why is it so difficult to program, and why is it the gold standard for fighting games? A whirlwind tour of different solutions #pixelart #gamedev #AnimationVERSUS The setup: you have a video game with couch co-op and want to add online multiplayer. Easy, right...? 🧵

New part of the Florist house for my personnal project ! ⭐

"Lushfoil Photography Sim is more than just a simulation — it's a way to connect, express, and relive the moments that move us."

Procedural rivers now carve terrain, clear trees and grass (and grow reeds on the side), follow basic pathfinding and generate instantly. Next: making them less roadlike with variable width and more natural, winding flow - basically I don't want to see any straight lines💧 NimianLegends.com

you know i'm right

Got rejected from an Aussie games showcase, so would you help us out and share this around if it looks like something you'd be interested in playing?

interesting repo: "multi-functional, extensible, and high-performance Gizmos drawing utility for Unity. It works both in the editor and in the build, and drawing can be done both in OnDrawGizmos and in Update" github.com/DCFApixels/U...

🚀 GPU particles can be difficult to understand—how do they work? If you want INSANELY high particle counts, they're the answer. We'll start with the basics of GPGPU, laying the groundwork for GPU particles. This is just the beginning. Sign up here 👉 simondev.teachable.com/p/games-thre...

King Hotel, Brooklyn 🏨 Once a haven for the elite, now a relic of a lost world. The wind howls through shattered windows, and the only ones left? Outlaws and fugitives. ☠️ Recently claimed by the Blind Justice gang, it’s become their stronghold - where justice is ruthless. 💥

Yo #Godot plush makers, lemme cook!!!

Is Bluesky worth it for promoting cozy/wholesome games? We haven't had quite as much success here as on the Other Place...but I think it's nicer here and I want to stay ☺️ If our game looks like your cup of tea, could you please like & share this? More info in 🧵⬇️

Update 0.6.0 😍 - New road texture - Road has been extended - Added fence model - Changed Light position - New flora colors - Added texture for tree trunk - Added grass behind fence #threejs #threejsJourney #webgl #web3d #javascript #Website #WebsiteDesign #UX #UI #game #indiegame

Unfortunately I have been affected by the latest Unity layoff. While I didn’t expect it to happen so suddenly, I’m still incredibly grateful for nearly six years there! I’m open to new opportunities - so I'm more than happy to connect with anyone wanting to make great games!

Having fun with a mix of froxels and raymarched primitives for volumetric fog

Had to share this lovely home I made for the in-game manual screenshots in Squeakross 🐁 I spent so much time modeling all those props I actually forgot how much work that was!!

Made some VR chalk tech. 🐧✍️ #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

For the love of our eyeballs, do not align your ember particles to velocity! Don’t give them that comet texture either, ugh. Let’s make ✨physically based flying embers✨ A Unity vfx graph implementation and explanation below. 🧵

Hi BlueSky! I'm Roger from Spain and I'm working on Darkenstein 3-D, an old school FPS inspired by the id classics. I'm also a graphic artist and a musician, and I just got here. Cheers! 🍻

here's a game with vibes not as fucked as those of the world today store.steampowered.com/app/867150/I...

Technical artists, show me your custom websites. I want to collect them all! (Other artists, you're also welcome to share yours)

Also fun fact: There's a new Technically Art issue out today! ✨ There's so much cool, insightful, and juicy shader-y, tech-artsy, and VFX-y stuff in there, you definitely don't want to miss it! 👀 Check it out here: halisavakis.com/technically-... #gamedev #indiedev #vfx

Yo #PortfolioDay! I'm Jonas, mainly a general 3D artist, but I love everything game dev! Also have a huge knack for eerie nature and retro tech 🍃📠 posting here mostly my private projects and experiments :D #gameart #gamedev #3dart #3d #3dartist #stylized

May I present my new four-part article series “Demystifying the PVS” on Quake's precomputed visibility. The first three parts are out now! Read them here: 📜 https://30fps.net/pages/pvs-portals-and-quake/ Related code available at: 🖳 https://github.com/pekkavaa/vis.py/

Very cool WebGPU demo showing a variety of rendering techniques. And, even better, the author wrote a whole article about it! georgi-nikolov.com/blog/webgpu-...

Pretty comprehensive survey by @freya.bsky.social of how Generative AI is polluting Google and Bing search results with around 80% content about *.glb files being AI slop. Lots of deep thoughts on GenAI being a parasitic cancer erasing humanity & ruining the Internet: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-opB...

Reminder that the HROT dev made a little RTS called SHROT a few months back. I know next to nothing about RTS but the little I've played of it is pretty darn fun.

Worked on optimizing my code for heightmap -> SDF and RDDF (TBA) generation for my university research project today. It's amazing how much performance you can get from a few small changes, mainly just thinking about where what gets called and what's constant, plus numba and of course my fav JFA.

Managed to encode a superposition of the functional and non-functional versions of my algorithm in a shader. #godot #shaders (Explanation: Nvidia GPUs don't seem to respect when function out variables are initialized outside of their function and fill them with garbage instead.)
