I rebuilt the sky system for Dune Barrens to support quiet moments that better fit a desert environment, with options for sunrise, heat distortion and even sand storms. NimianLegends.com

Dune Barrens on iPad is coming November. It brings several improvements to my procedural rivers & waterfalls that are coming to Wilderless + Meadowfell too. Drop a river source wherever and watch it flow, or explore and find natural ones in the world. NimianLegends.com

For people wondering if those distant mountains are just decoration . In Wilderless, if you can see it, you can go there😀 Wilderless 2.4 for iPad. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNO8...

Wilderless: Dune Barrens | iPad Pro 2020 I was going to do a desert in 2016 but felt they were kind of dull, so I made Nimian Legends: Vandgels instead. Its cool to finally be back to deserts again❤️ NimianLegends.com

Procedurally generated rivers in Wilderless: #DuneBarrens. Here I've spawned a few along a ridge. Rivers combine naturally creating a massive cliffside waterfall. You can see how UNDO works too - erasing individual rivers leaving the original landscape😀 NimianLegends.com

Wilderless: Dune Barrens introduces two new creatures: Scarabs that skitter across the sand before taking flight, and Burrow Turtles that can tunnel beneath the desert at will. You can find, spawn, or shape change into both. NimianLegends.com

I think the only way social media can be truly healthy is if, eventually, posts are transparent about who is posting them and why. Paid? Bots? PR? Like nutrition labels letting real people know which sentiments and opinions are genuine🙏🏽❤️

Wilderless 2.3 iPad (shown here), iPhone and Android versions are ready for launch. Also testing the Mac and PC versions. Procedurally generated streams, rivers and waterfalls are on the way. NimianLegends.com

Thank you! Your feedback helped so much: Wilderless iOS Open Beta: testflight.apple.com/join/ch9JQD6B Build 158: • Asynch Loading • Ui improvements • Soundtrack memory management • River beacons • More auto save settings • Sunlight Tints • Improved carving and terrain blending

Preparing the iPad beta for #Wilderless 2.3. Rivers are procedurally generated, forming naturally or user spawned. It's busy behind the scenes with run-time pathfinding, erosion, terrain carving, and dynamic vegetation and rock placement, all designed to look organic and untamed. NimianLegends.com

Procedural Rivers 1.0 are finally done and I'm really happy with how they turned out. Coming soon as a free update to #Wilderless and #Meadowfell. Video recorded on an iPad Pro 2020. NimianLegends.com

Thanks everyone for the help with the Google Play privacy policy warning. Strangely, it seems to have resolved on its own. I think it was an automated flag (I don't collect data), but I uploaded a more detailed policy today just in case.

Google Play just warned me that Meadowfell will be removed because my privacy policy is "invalid." But I don’t collect any data. Can anyone check if this link works for you? I'm not sure what's wrong. nimianlegends.com/privacy.htm

Wilderless 2.2 River Update running on iPad Pro 2020 NimianLegends.com

Wilderless' procedural rivers are nearly complete, just a few final tweaks and UI fixes left before they're included in update 2.2. I'm really happy with how they’ve turned out. Shown here running on an iPad Pro 2020. NimianLegends.com

The simple magic system in Wilderless and Meadowfell was added in preparation for a full system debuting in the upcoming #GrimShiver. ScorchQuake is one example: It tears through nearby trees and enemies, and leaves a trail of flames in its wake🔥 NimianLegends.com

By moving river settings into Unity's Scriptable Objects, I can now use one evolving procedurally generated river system across three different games: sunny, pastoral #Meadowfell, haunting #GrimShiver, and #Wilderless❤️ #iPad #MadeWithUnity NimianLegends.com

In addition to solo rivers, multiple joining rivers are coming as an experimental feature in Wilderless and Meadowfell 2.2. It's not fully polished yet, but fun to play with, and you can generate as many rivers as your device can handle. #IndieGame #iPad NimianLegends.com

Mantapids are gentle giants, harmless creatures that sing like whales. I'm working on making aquatic life respond to the procedural rivers flowing through Wilderless and Meadowfell. #IndieGame #iPad NimianLegends.com

Just added splash effects to the procedural rivers. The game now also generates persistent rivers that flow throughout the world. I’m currently wandering around discovering them in action. #Wilderless #IndieGame #iPad NimianLegends.com

I have a stowaway❤️

Forest river falls NimianLegends.com

Giant rock golems smash through forest trees in #Meadowfell 2.2. This was my first attempt, and it already feels pretty satisfying, especially with sound on. Still working on polish and optimizations, but it runs well on a 2020 iPad Pro🙂 NimianLegends.com

#Wilderless procedural rivers carve organically through forests. Dozens of settings let you shape flow, terrain carving, and try different water presets. Perfect for explorers who love natural open worlds. #iPad NimianLegends.com

GrimShiver rivers, forests and crows - #iPad #indiegame - NimianLegends.com

Rollerbots and Giant Baedils roam and rest along the riverbanks. In #Wilderless update 2.2, you can spawn rivers and wildlife anytime, so you can build your own tiny ecosystem or stumble upon moments like this naturally. NimianLegends.com

I make open world indie games that are all about relaxing moments like these. This is the Rivers & Waterfalls update running on iPad, and coming to #Wilderless and #Meadowfell v 2.2. nimianlegends.com

Wilderless river system can handle streams a few feet wide to rivers about 30 feet across, still working on the water shader and am tackling foam next. iPad is extra tricky because some shader features like grab pass don't work on Metal.#indiegame NimianLegends.com

Meadowfell's garden creator is coming to #Wilderless in the next update. Combined with the new river creator you can make cozy, natural moments like this to relax in. #indiegame #screenshotsaturday #iPad NimianLegends.com

Almost finished the #Wilderless river shader #iPad update. I added specular lighting (that was tough), softer intersections, and wave undulations that oscillate above and below instead of just rising up, so more artistic control and natural movement. nimianlegends.com

Riverside meditation ❤️ #Meadowfell's my open world indiegame set in a sunny, pastoral countryside. Update 2.3 is adding procedurally generated rivers & waterfalls - seen here on iPad - and they just belong there. nimianlegends.com

This was tricky. The procedural river sound manager now supports multiple rivers. It tracks grouped sound nodes only playing for active rivers, works with undo, blends between adjoining rivers and works with just two audiosources #screenshotsaturday NimianLegends.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bnfe...

I'm working on a river system update: delete and regenerate paths with flowing water, rocks, and waterfalls. Sound adapts based on position using 2-3 AudioSources. If this sounds interesting you can help me keep development going by buying a $5 game at NimianLegends.com❤️

Rewrote the river side object spawner to be more robust. It now uses ScriptableObjects for themes, coroutine-based spawning, and smarter placement controls. Next up: a pooling system using a point cloud + moving more generation into coroutines😸 #indiegame NimianLegends.com

Pinch to zoom - all my games give you a generous camera view so you can zoom out to the tree tops or close up into the forest flow. #GrimShiver #indiegame NimianLegends.com

Finally got variable width working in procedural rivers using a world space post process so they feel less roadlike. I'm thinking it would be good to add wider = slower and thinner = faster, and maybe increase the depth of the carving in thinner sections? iPad Pro (2020). NimianLegends.com
