EsoDev

We work on positive, mature games with adult content, and difficult technical issues related to procedural generation, agent systems, and so on, and so forth.

There will be no more gamedev posts coming from me. With a lack of any response, it is nothing more than a burden to continue posting here.

As stated in my previous post, we're shuttering this Twitter account (this will be the final update), read here if you want to know why:

New update, and this time it comes with a preview of our Knowledge system, you can download it from our Discord.

Late update. I'm not feeling like I can say anything witty or funny here...

We have done did a thing. Yup, sure a thing. (The interesting thing here is that we're dealing with automated lists, where the items can also be called individually as part of our tooltip system.)

Update time. It's not a very interesting update. We're working on stuff, some of which is really complex while other things are just tedious.

So what do we have here? Kabbalah and Poincaré Recurrence Theorem? Sure, why not.

Update time. In-game Internet updates, facts and some firegreen textures. Also some lore about time, who knows.

I think I'll skip the update for today, I'm not feeling well and would much prefer to lie down.

[EsoDev @EsoDevOfficial]

Weekly update, not much to say, just incremental progress on the facts system, plus some nice progress on the document renderer. Also lore about stabbing people.

I am not sure if this is safe and/or sane but it works, for the moment. We'll see how it goes, even if the code isn't my proudest moment.

So I managed to replicate foreignObject inside of SVG using my draw command...
#gamedevelopment

[EsoDev @EsoDevOfficial]

How did I do it? Well, basically what happens is that the Render call for draw renders the HTML provided to it into an image using a second browser style display and then returns that code back to the main browser which displays it.

[EsoDev @EsoDevOfficial]

Update day, a fairly inconsequential lore piece and a lot of talk about document generation.

However this has the benefit of also allowing for the use of the draw command. Here are some examples, from left to right: Bokeh pattern draw, prepared texture for colourization, and colourization with the command: ColourMatrix Colourize #8FBC8F #800080 #000

[EsoDev @EsoDevOfficial]

So, I've finally managed to get a working, if imperfect, method of mixing HTML into SVG. This was difficult because I had to work without CSS' background-clip:text and without SVG's <foreignObject>.

But it produces works now. And I've checked, I cannot remove even a single reference to those dimensions or else everything stops working. If I could remove them, I would. (This also showcases creasing for paperback books on the very left edge.)
