It's been a while!
Tomorrow "Untitled Plane Game" will be mentioned along with a bunch of technical details during my lightning talk titled “Building a 3D game using real geodata” (pretty lame title, I know) at @godotcon in Berlin. See you there!

Finishing off the slides:

Defining scenarios in JSON opens endless possibilities for me (to come up with some crazy shit and some ridiculous missions) + makes it possible for anyone else to write scenarios for the game.
Stay tuned, more details will be shared later!

Untitled Plane Game is a game played in the "real" world — currently it uses the database of ~3900 airports and ~5000 cities. As an example, here are all the *playable* airports in Benelux.

The aim will be to build an airline but the game is gonna be more than just that ⬇️

This mechanism is extemely flexible and allows to create different actions, events, conditions (for example, certain events can be executed with a delay or after a certain other condition is fulfilled) and missions.
I wrote some already:

*some real work has finally being done*

Untitled Plane Game is an upcoming strategy game written in @godotengine and coming to your Macs and PCs in 2024.
It features a real world with real cities, airports and endless possibilities to create the airline of your dreams! ✈️

@godotengine (this video is from ~2 weeks ago - the problem with polygons is solved now, but you can easily guess why this happened to someone who has never tried to map 2D coordinates onto a sphere)

@godotengine To be fair, all the concepts of 3D game development are pretty new to me - whether it's shaders, polygons and their triangulation, creating the planet itself based on geodata, and creating terrain based on real geodata (still in process).
And sometimes things don't go well:

It's now time to get back to it ✈️

But first I want to say huge thank you to @UnityCodeMonkey — this game wouldn't be possible without his amazing tutorials.
Go follow him right now!

Hello and welcome onboard!
My name is Alex (@alwxtwi), I'm very new to gamedev, and I want to utilize this account to share not only what this game is about, but also my thoughts on gamedev, on @unity and how it feels to me, on C# and graphics for the game.
Time for take off!
