well it sounds cool, but i'm not quite following you. in any case, do you have any screenshots of it in action? cheers Smiley

Yeah, click on my signature bunny link.  First video is the lighting I'm talking about in action, but it has many more elements then what I was talking about here going on.

With some shader coding it can be changed to work for lots of scenarios pretty well.  If you like the effect I could try to explain it a little more thoroughly.

Update: More lighting work, I've split the algorithm up into a number of passes, so it first performs light propagation within the 16x16 subchunks, then light is diffused between subchunks and another propagation step is done. Still a few bugs to iron out.. this stuff is doing my head in. Crazy The good thing is is that it will be generated on demand, and will only be recomputed (locally) if blocks are changed.



Also, I'm on hiatus for 2 weeks, holiday time... Evil

looks promising!
maybe some materials would let the light pass more than others ?

Update: the light algorithm seems to work alright now, although i'm sure there's some more edge cases i haven't stumbled upon, and I have no iea about its performance.

I'm also doing a final blur pass which removes some of the awful artifacts..



And I'm not sure whether posterising it is still the way to go, but I'll have to wait until its all composited together to see how it'll look..

Will there only be one world, with a ship to fly around it, or will it be multiple worlds that you fly in between with a space ship?  Just asking because I saw a ship inventory somewhere in this devlog.

hey pixelulsar - atm moonman is heading towards a "short story" format, each story/scenario will have its own world, so e.g., there will be a story with an island with villages, a central volcano with branching dungeons/caves off that, all surrounded by sea. The ship story will be one of the bigger stories - moonman crashes on a planet and has to fix his ship to get home, in that scenario the ship is a static entity with an inventory and special inventory slots that you have to fill with certain items to complete the scenario. There's also going to be an open-ended/sandbox story, in which the game plays more like minecraft (where there's no real goal).

Free or commercial?

Do you prefer apples over oranges?

Will the inventory items be available from the start or will the player have to find / fight for them?

What's your opinion on ramen noodles?

Yeah.

@eyeliner commercial; i'm allergic to oranges, so apples; inventory may be traditional roguelike, starting with a few random items; we call them 2-minute noodles in australia. thx for the q's. Wink

@sb3dgraph for sure, i'm working on it Smiley
