Working on the Character Sheet - Good or bad?

Step by step towards the planned 2025 release. The NPC "Seppo Anvil" will give you the most generic fetch quest there is.

@Wolfseby Reminds me of #Starfield

@psergiomr AOE 2 main menu is actually my favourite of all time, all games. It gives off a very unique feeling

[GameDev Joni @GamedevJoni]

Releasing #OMAPELI alpha v0.2.0 later this month. Had a busy year so tiny progress unfortunately.

A Youtube devlog in planning.

[GameDev Joni @GamedevJoni]

I established a business @devjoniscience. Mostly consultation and open-source product development.

Looking forward to continue with OMAPELI (with a big update) later this year.

@CodedSlush I use Panda3D - flexibility of Python with the performance of C++.

But I don't think this matters for the gamers. Only if I release my game open-source - as Panda3D is - maybe it then attracts open-source enthusiasts 🤔

[GameDev Joni @GamedevJoni]

@OtterSpaceDev Great progress! 🙂 I really like the voxel grass on the right image

[GameDev Joni @GamedevJoni]

If I wanted not to touch C++, I could have also created the sphere once during the startup (then copy and scale it), or then set up a parallel Python process "background worker" to create models without worrying the 16.7 ms = 60fps time limit.

[GameDev Joni @GamedevJoni]

My sphere creation code was slow (~5 ms) - Too many function calls for Python. Vertex-by-vertex.

Implemented it C++. Now it is hard to measure even 😄

One level higher, all the code is still in Python.
No reason to change there.
