things i'm building

[rick @rickdevlog]

@0x45o Yeah I started this account to share updates on my game engine. Would have still been possible a few years ago but taken way longer

[rick @rickdevlog]

@BenHomebrew Nice. We recently bought a TV stand for our retro game corner. Doesn't quite hit the same playing NES games on a flatscreen

[rick @rickdevlog]

Below the cutline for v0, but still cool:
- Networked components
- Custom GLSL shaders
- Gamepad support
- 2D rigid body physics

[rick @rickdevlog]

A few big features I want to integrate into my game engine before I open up the repo on gh:
- Skyboxes (possibly THREE's built-in sky.js)
- Better editor gizmos (rotation, drag)
- GLTF animation clips
- SFX and music
- Save files (maybe through IndexedDB)

@henrytdowling Honestly worth the CapEx if we can get our brightest minds focused on other problems tbqh

[rick @rickdevlog]

@psomkarbuilds Sure, but usually it's less productive. Even with AI assistance there are lots of hard problems to solve

[rick @rickdevlog]

@Krubbled I'm just noticing now that Claude overuses the word "Bayesian"

[rick @rickdevlog]

@Kweepa Looks great. Is this using the original Doom engine, or are you writing it from the ground up?

[rick @rickdevlog]

@XRPee1983 It's honestly tragic that this gem never got released in the US

Lights now cast shadows! This can be enabled/disabled for imported models on their .meta file.

[rick @rickdevlog]

@yacineMTB Yup. Literally why I created this X account a few days ago

[rick @rickdevlog]

Messing around with different light and material variants

[rick @rickdevlog]

@maseylia Even just looking at these clips, it's obvious how much love and attention to detail went into this game. Congrats on the launch 🚀

[rick @rickdevlog]

@SarahTheHaider I've noticed myself using the phrase "load bearing" more, and I'm not sure how to feel about it.

[rick @rickdevlog]

@Ki3_Games Nice. I know in OOT the camera zooms into first person mode for tunnels. Have you thought about a hybrid mechanic like that?

@BenHomebrew @Blender I used Opus 4.8 through the claude CLI. Just the standard MCP server: https://t.co/2N2YF0AtuQ

Claude also walked me through how to set it up

[rick @rickdevlog]

Just tried @Blender MCP for the first time today, and it one-shotted this palm tree. I'm seriously impressed!

[rick @rickdevlog]

@dwhitedesign This sound font feels very similar to the Nintendo Switch. Cool stuff

[rick @rickdevlog]

@Blender The same tree, now imported into my game engine's prefab editor
