@maxweisel Prowl is looking good https://t.co/HMEnqDWkDL - I dont think they are going for Unity compatible, but its super Unity inspired. Components are even named the horrible name of 'MonoBehaviour'

[Kenney @KenneyNL]

I saw this video on Reddit of DuneCrawl, which uses my Asset Forge for sketching. I love it, in fact, I loved seeing this so much that it gave me a lot of inspiration. Big plans for Asset Forge, hopefully will already be able to share soon.

@SteveTalkowski Quest3, first time i've tried AR with Quest actually

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Prototyped an AR game where you push around a self-balancing robot

[Alientrap Games @AlientrapGames]

DuneCrawl is coming out on Android, PlayStation, and Xbox October 19th!

Android: https://t.co/aRHB638w3x

@andreintg Most recent publisher contracts I've seen are 'you have to get permission to use AI from us' rather than its just forbidden. Its pretty common

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

@brokeasscanada2 No idea, we didn't develop the Android version of Wytchwood

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

We'll be in Kyoto next week showing Astromine at BitSummit! Booth 1F-D09

Hoping to also make it to Tokyo Indies on 20th. Let me know if your around

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

@TulpaTownW Is that bad or good

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Another attempt at the voxel physics idea where voxels rejoin the grid. They now join over time once slow enough, and lerp into position

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

@JamesSager @notch if thats what your looking for you should probably check out our game Astromine

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Tried out a voxel physics idea where it breaks into individual cube bodies, then adds back to the voxel grid after

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

@Jonathan_Blow @notch I was thinking id have to do a whole falling sand simulation to really do that well - but actually yeah just 'find best voxel grid position and lerp to it' would probably be enough

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Went live with Astromine demo update - Acid, Drills, and Strafing: https://t.co/JReTxgFvYN

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Testing a new voxel 'acid system'. Spreads like fire (but only downwards, and also 'drips' to floors below it), but also burns everything

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Showing Astromine at @dayofthedevs GDC this year! Come talk to me about voxels

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Working on the procedural generation of enemy moon bases for Astromine

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

All of the aliens in Astromine are made out of voxels - you blow through their flesh to expose their vulnerable cores

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Astromine demo is now out on Steam!

Try out the first two planets of our voxel physics co-op survival game

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Whether they have price parity rules is unclear really - if you look at the Wolfire lawsuit they've told devs "If you wanted to disadvantage Steam customers by charging a higher price, we would opt to not sell your game".

I don't want to claim they have a official policy though, besides Steam keys, so i'll delete my tweet claiming that

[Lee Vermeulen @Alientrap]

Steam used to be a lot more lax about Steam keys - now they are not. They are definitely not 'unlimited' - you do have to justify their use and they are often denied now.

I should have been more clear what I meant by 'ingame purchases' - I mean, actually in the game. You can go to a devs website and get additional content yeah - but like I said, I can't have that as a option ingame.
