Adre | A Weird Village

Congratz for finding me among millions, i'm very rare but worthless.
Developing A Weird Village, a 4v4 cozy gore game.

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

Hello, here's my team's base getting wiped by the enemy team.
Fuckin' overleveled campers.

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@mogmek Not much but honest work :D

Got procedural humanoids and walk, idle and run animations. Even these are procedural, so can change for each character basically.

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

So i have a HUGE planet of 804 km² procedurally generated you can visit seamlessly, with 10+ random biomes and interesting landscapes, plus now i have terraforming.
What's missing? A prototype of intelligent and evolving civilizations terraforming the planet by themselves and interacting between them.

I'm scratching the surface.

@Latiencur my fav!

[Latiencur @Latiencur]

No AI. Made from chunks of bodies and a blasphemous relic at the bottom of a mass grave... 💀💀💀

Well, and a touch of Photoshop as well🎨

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@mogmek ofc!

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@mogmek fair point!

Will test something "in between" like a background simulation of the water flow to define where to build the water mesh, waterfalls, etc.

Could be a middle point.

Mhhh. will see!

@re_skob ♥️

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@mogmek was not joking honestly.
Since everything can be terraformed, i was thinking about creating lakes or enlarging rivers and such. There are few ways i can do it.

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@DrQuentinSTN why not.

I'd say, why not even amphibious civilizations.

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@Parius_ hopefully super fun

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@Jocker_zero Yes! You can be indeed a good or a bad god... and civilizations will recognize your behaviour

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@Raymondbuilt they score more on evolution goals, so ensure adaptability, survival, reaching resources faster or finding new POI where to move or start new camps->villages->towns

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@BeyondTheBoxCN ahah this is exactly the interactions i'm aiming to!

And playing go you could force their behaviour somehow 🤐

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@LearnOpenGLES 😊😊

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@TheRealIndie ofc, everything happens in realtime and is saved, is a single instance, so if a civ built a village changing a river or flatted out a mountain, you'll notice when you go back there ^^

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@Raymondbuilt is not a problem at all that one, talking about performance ^_^

Harder, having a civ taking a decision about terraforminh, why, and how.

I think should be goal driven, somehow

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@eiennoKirakira The planet is deterministic and generated from a seed, so I only need to save the voxels modified by the player and a cache of generated chunks. The cache can be deleted at any time without losing anything.

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

@gustavo_gamedev will do ^_^

[Adre | A Weird Village @adredev]

I intend the civilization to be really aware of the environment.

If you create a crater they might consider to build a village inside if they see benefits, or if you create a canyon they might study to build bridges. Your actions might bring evolution and for sure impact civilizations..

Imagine you destroy their village.
