• Devlog #61: Spheres, better performance and future plans
  July 21, 2020 by ChocolatePinecone#editor

• Devlog #047: UI navigation
  January 02, 2020 by ChocolatePinecone#UI, #controller, #version0

  December 05, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone

  1

  #UI, #flying, #grappling, #physics, #version0

  The last 2 weeks I have been mostly focussed on sounds. It's not the most rivoting work, browsing online for sounds to use, searching with terms like "fling", "thwap" and "clang". Still it's amazing t... Continue reading

• Devlog #042: Under the hood stuff
  October 25, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#UI, #editor, #localization, #version0

  July 11, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone

• Devlog #031: Improved title
  June 26, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#UI, #version0

  I dabbled with different letter designs and posted a first attempt more than a month ago. Between the words I placed a flying ship pulling a crate, but it seemed too unorganized. The feedback through... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #030: Cable retraction
  June 24, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#animation, #flying, #grappling, #physics, #version0

  June 20, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#animation, #flying, #grappling, #engine, #physics, #version0

  *Fling!* *Thwap!* After some trying out different solutions, I found a nice way to shoot the cable instead of magically making it appear. I'm simply Lerping the end of the cable between the ship and c... Continue reading

  June 18, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#flying, #grappling, #physics, #version0

  May 23, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#animation, #physics, #debug-view, #flying, #version0

  Following the advice of 2 reddit users, I've tested out using a cable built out of seperate smaller joints, instead of 1 single joint. It was actually more stable than I thought, but the weight of the... Continue reading

  May 21, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#flying, #physics, #version0

• Devlog #024: Crate collision test
  May 14, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#collision, #collision-detection, #collision-resolution, #physics, #version0

  May 13, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#collision, #physics, #version0

  Here are some crates with physics. It works OK-ish. I'll just go with it and see if the physics will really cause problems later on. I just need a break of constantly looking at the same physics code... Continue reading
• Devlog #022: Tile generator
  May 07, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#tile-generation, #debug-view, #editor, #version0

  May 03, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#collision, #collision-detection, #debug-view, #editor, #engine, #version0

  May 01, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#collision, #collision-detection, #debug-view, #engine, #version0

  Left you see the old system which uses a seperate collider for every tile. Right you see the result of the new WIP tile collider generator that generates a single collider for a group of tiles. With p... Continue reading

  April 25, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#collision, #collision-detection, #collision-resolution, #engine, #physics, #version0

  I'm getting more and more tired of all these problems with physics. Since the collider for my crate is a bit complicated, the physics system is protesting. I'm probably either forced to throw the comp... Continue reading

  April 03, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#engine, #flying, #version0, #physics

  March 22, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#UI, #debug-view, #editor, #engine, #version0

  February 11, 2019 by ChocolatePinecone#UI, #debug-view, #editor, #engine, #version0

  December 24, 2018 by ChocolatePinecone#UI, #debug-view, #editor, #version0

  December 06, 2018 by ChocolatePinecone#engine, #parallax, #version0

  December 06, 2018 by ChocolatePinecone#engine, #collision-resolution, #version0

  December 06, 2018 by ChocolatePinecone#engine, #collision-resolution, #version0

  Wow, i hate physics.. Rotation screws everything up -.-'' It works for some cases, but some other cases rotate the wrong way. It's all a pretty complicated puzzle to crack. I'm confident I can stabili... Continue reading

  
• Devlog #001: Even better collision resolution
  December 06, 2018 by ChocolatePinecone#engine, #collision-resolution, #version0

  December 06, 2018 by ChocolatePinecone#engine, #debug-view, #version0
