@shibuyabullet Thanks, much appreciated!

Now that the lighting is working, I've been messing around with an outline effect to make pixels pop a bit more in darker areas. Starting to get there!

Finally managed to move the raytracing to the GPU, runs sooo much faster than my old implementation 🤩

I've been working on a dynamic sky feature for the game because I got tired of looking at a blank background 🤩

@LanttoGames Yes, my current vision for the game would indeed be a factory builder at the core with some terraria-esque stuff around it. I especially want to put quite some emphasis on exploration and adventure. And yeah, falling sand games are quite niche but I absolutely love them.

[Piter @pitergroot]

Here is a closer look. "Soft" shadows are currently being faked, but looks quite convincing with some little post cleanup hacks.

Who said raytracing is 3D only👀

@LanttoGames Thanks! I’ve actually been a Sandustry enjoyer for quite some time now, and I really like what you’ve created

[Piter @pitergroot]

Works in realtime! Performance is okay, but will move the system over to the GPU in the future for much more breathing room.

@KenneyNL How do you decide when an asset pack is “done”?
