Realized I haven't posted much of this project on this site. It's a very-much-work-in-progress infinite urban walking sim.

So, I get a lot of questions about generating procedural environments, but I was never great with the whole "show your work" thing in school, so let's try something: if you got questions, ask them here and I'll try to answer them* because learning is fun. *Answers not guaranteed to be interesting.

my game If Letters Had Pants, Would They Wear Them Like This? What About Numbers? What If They Had Small Shovels And They Dug Stuff Up To Put In A Museum? is out now on itch io for Windows, MacOS and Linux! 🩳 punkcake.itch.io/if-letters-h... Find words! Give ur letters pants! Make stronger words!

I just finished the first pass at a procedural landscape generator for a flying game, Kerosene Thunder. The goal is realistic 1960s landscapes ~1000km across, at 500m resolution. This is a thread about how it works now. #procgen #textmode

Some things I made-

the chungus now encroacheth. added a coin magnet relic as well because who doesn't like one of those.

The older cards in the series I made over a year ago and I now I want to revisit them and maybe add a second color 🤔 But I also want to make a full major arcana with different games so we'll see

Some screenshots from Send 1 on the Sharp MZ-700. A simple but fun space shooter where you need to kill the alien ships that are ejected from the big mothership. This was actually the first game I ever played on my own Sharp (an MZ-80A, so I didn't get the colours).
