First pass on the gizmos! Thanks to @shimmey.bsky.social for sharing his awesome grid shader. So good for prototyping. #gamedev

Hey everyone. I'm running a deal on all 650 of my commercial use fonts until the 31st! Representing over a decade of my font output, at a crazy low price of just $19 (less than I normally license a single font for!) Cheers and a Happy New Year to all! :) hawtpixel.itch.io/hawtpixel-fo... #gamedev

Inventory systems are one of those 'more complicated than you think' types of feature, and everyone has an opinion. Here is my attempt to break down a few inventory systems from games that have inspired me, and to identify common ground from which I can build my own. techarthub.com/an-inventory...

Funny story: Journey had no automatic shadows. I painted them all by hand. The shadow texture was not hi-res. To get the iconic sunset columns to cast sharp shadows, I made sure that they aligned with the pixel grid of the texture. Here you can see the shadow map I painted.

It get's a bit windy in the upper parts of gas giant's atmosphere. At least there are no thunderstorms (at this moment).
