Hi Twitter! I just released the #Kickstarter campaign for "Rally Up!". A board game I designed where you steal votes and try to win the elections 🔥 if you're into slightly strategical #boardgames, have a look😃 https://t.co/2ScIg3f8Iw

@Lordkaaiii Not yet 🙏

There are now ships in the game! They'll be very expensive and probably require more end-game resources that you'll find through expeditions around the planet. These ships will give you access to cheaper trades with other players that also have ports/ships around the world.⚓️

@MichaelGevlich That's beautiful Michael! Is it a cubemap or just a regular video? because those poles look flawless!

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

@openglobus Congratulations! that's a great use case!

The first prototype vs. the result

Coming back home after a long trip, and seeing your YouTube feed with all new videos really feels like running through fresh snow 😍

Yes this was revealed to me in a dream 💭

Hear me out. Let's start a bakery called copy-pastries. It sells

- homemade cookies
- cinnamon bites (for kids)
- mega bites (for grown-ups)
- chocolate tabs
- hard biscuit disks

They only take cache & you get a free 3th party cookie for every order (they don't taste that good)

More than 600 wishlists for Project Rebearth right after announcing the Steam page! I'm feeling very proud 🥹 Thank you all for the enthusiasm!💛
In case you missed it, the Steam page for my city building game is up at: https://t.co/5wVsjeWyqm

Hey @MouldS and @standupmaths! I wasn't quite satisfied with your question/answer on how big a planet needs to be for a forest fire to never end... So I dug a little deeper! Sphere's have so much cool mathematics!

@Salmonid_ You're welcome 🙏 Imagine all the rooms staying cold because of too-well-optimized software...

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

As an indie dev, I just want to make sure my game fully uses the PC hardware you've paid for. I got you👊

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

@MapMakinMeyers But... I might just need it one day🥺

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

@ZoldenGames I was told there was heaps of money and fame. So I guess lay back and chill on your yacht? 🤓

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

@BioGridGame HTML & Javascript are the superior game engine. I stand my ground 🔥

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

@MightofMe Amazing to see how you have been able to put your vision into code. Great work!

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

@openglobus And I am really happy to have found the openglobus library to finally make this project come to life 🌱. You guys are doing a great job! 👍

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

Even the UI with the resource bar, menu items and minimap received a make-over in this past year🤩

[Program Sam @The_Program_Sam]

I can't believe it's already one year since I started working on my city building game: Project Rebearth. lots of things left to do, but I love to see what has been achieved this past year. Thank you all for the enthusiasm and support🧡

Here is another one-year transformation picture. Also thanks the the amazing capabilities of @openglobus 🔥🌐I went from struggling with map transformations and data sources to actually crafting a planet that feels more or less alive
