Having a lot of fun adding new entities, even though it's just programmer art.

Added more flower variants, a palm tree, improved world generation, and changed so chunks fade in.

This change was definitely worth it!

Absolutely love allowing images (and rows of images) to expand beyond the text boundary of posts!

Posted a devlog about my experimental #multiplayer!

Tried including a bit more technical stuff, compared to the previous devlogs.

@_V3X3D Thanks! I am planning on making bigger characters, since everything else is bigger as well now, so don't love them too much

I wouldn't call myself a pixel artist yet. But you definitely are. Nice art!

First working build with #multiplayer!

Currently, only player positions and world seed are synchronized. It's quite literally the first working build!

@the_story_nerd Thanks, and I definitely will!

[Vallentin @VallentinDev]

The world seed is also synchronized. So changing the seed, causes all clients to rebuild the world.

Finally have completely modular buildings, that can be built piece by piece!

Now I just need to add the actual building menu...

Half-Life turns 25 this weekend, and we're pushing a big update to bring back some of that 1998 feeling with restored original launch day content, brand new multiplayer maps, a look behind the scenes with the original development team, and more: https://t.co/ceV4oePUyP

My second devlog is online (again), after a few tweaks

Another one, with some flowers clinging on to a grass patch in the desert

I have an interesting relationship with procedural generation. I fix this bug, then a few days later it magically makes an appearance again!

@justin_rhw They are small enough indeed. The most expensive assets are character animations, as they have a lot of frames. So when I pack textures into atlases, they take up the majority. But I still have plenty of available texture space, so it's not gonna be an issue anytime soon

Spottet a sunflower field in the middle of a forest!

Trees and plants are now tinted slightly, so that they look more apart.

@BigWhoopGames Thanks!

[Vallentin @VallentinDev]

DevLog post coming tomorrow, if all goes well!

I've been redrawing and replacing all sprites this whole month. Still a lot of work to be done, but it's finally starting to look like something!

#gamedev #indiedev #rustgamedev #pixelart #aseprite

[Vallentin @VallentinDev]

Finally happy with how the vehicles are starting to look!

Not at all excited to make directional sprites for the drivable versions...
