Scientist by day, #indiedev by night. I love anything related to emergent behavior and procedural generation. #MadeWithUnity #UnityDOTs #UnityECS

Happy #WorldBeeDay! Have, a few thousand animated bees in #UnityDOTS. My systems are starting to come together! #Bees #MadeWithUnity, #IndieDev #IndieGames #IndieGameDev #WorldBeeDay2021 #InternationalBeeDay

@JGRIZZYBOI I've got dv-gen at bluesky. Working on dv_gen at mastodon gamedev place.

I'm done with Twitter. You know why. Of course it's Musk. My identity, beliefs, and career are under attack from multiple directions, and Musk is behind a great deal of it. You all have been great. I love seeing what you create. I'll be looking for you on BlueSky and Mastodon.

Simple pixelated glass shader for Unity (URP).

My talk about extending Wave Function Collapse / Model Synthesis is now online. I gave this talk at Everything Procedural 2024. My new work overcomes many previous limitations. It no longer requires tiles. https://t.co/rk3Ni4qSzO.

@TheBibites Looks great. Are you going to consider procedural normals?

@DailyBig_O The question is, is it a satellite, or a stage light? And how was its fall predicted?

@Bana_Kabalan @NRDI_UF I'd love to hear more about these activities. They sound like a lot of fun for the students.

@Phantom_TheGame You are right, but at least it lets you switch to primarily white ink while you get new black ink. Doesn't help if your monitor only takes combo ink packets.

@KenneyNL The key distinction is that a tree asset conveys the idea of a tree WITHOUT intent, apparently.

@DailyBig_O Ah yes, the really big wtf scenes towards the very end.

[DV_Gen @_DV_Gen_]

@HyperMegaPixel Bush fishing! I love it.

[DV_Gen @_DV_Gen_]

@wtfmig You mean the Flash Gordon theme?

P.S. Big O is my favorite ever.

I'm writing a simple graphic for UI decoration. A single texture can be oriented 8 different ways and mirrors around the center to work in any size.

For many years, I've been developing a new procedural modeling technique that overcomes many of the limitations of my PhD work on Model Synthesis and WFC. It's a completely new approach that uses graph grammars. It doesn't use tiles. I just presented it at SIGGRAPH!

Here is my life recently.

1. I moved across the country to start a new job.
2. Two months of COVID. It’s been rough, buddy.
3. Job shenanigans. Always, apparently.
4. I’m currently polishing my code in preparation for sharing it with my next video.
5. Unity shenanigans.

@Vercidium Thanks, I'm glad you like them. Yes, I've seen Maxim's MarkovJunior. Haven't had a chance to really look into it, but it seem fascinating. Paul Merrell also has his own follow up to Model Synthesis / Wavefunction Collapse that I've been meaning to check out in more detail too.

[DV_Gen @_DV_Gen_]

@RealAstropulse I'm so into this.

[DV_Gen @_DV_Gen_]

@FreyaHolmer @HelicityBoson Maybe he can finally implement that microtransaction per reload idea.

@Rainmaker1973 Anyone tried taking a random sample of things, and recording what portion of those things can be described in terms of the Fibonacci sequence or golden ratio?
