@ZoldenGames I still open the project and mess around with it from time to time, but I never found where to take it. My original idea was a sort of fluid match-three type game, but we have enough of those!

@nikitadiakur @SuperRare Thank you!

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@nikitadiakur @SuperRare That's your tune? Dope. Is blueeskies-beauty-pluck the name of the sample? Anyway I'd love to hear the whole thing if it's ever done :)

@bobvodka @willgoldstone Albeit in the wrong order!

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@willgoldstone @NASA Can't believe you finally perfected Blue Steel!

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@KangarooPhysics Yum!

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@_Kcnarf Lovely!

@rezoner Cool thanks, so you pick the resolution of your render target based on the width, depth and height of your voxel scene? I'm guessing there's a specific ratio for it to render "screen-pixel-aligned" so to speak?

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@rezoner @devMidgard Awesome, can you talk a bit more about how you're rendering this? Are you converting from sprite stacks to voxels and then just rendering to a low res target?

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@studenman Hahaha, well at least they didn't complain about download speed! I think it's called trypophobia?

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@regisleroy No not really. They're all being pulled towards the center and in this case the only thing you can be sure of is that they will arrange in hexagons because they are all identical size.

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@bernielomax @HilariousCow The points used to compute the Voronoi move towards the centroids of their cells. It's called Lloyd's Relaxation, Wikipedia has a good diagram. I just give it rectangular bounds, but I don't see any reason why it couldn't be an arbitrary shape.

[Dr. Cleon, PhD @cleonsucks]

@studenman And it's much better too!
