You're moving at a really incredible pace. Please don't stop.
This. I really like where this is headed. As for the demo, well, I walked up to the rusty flyer and tried picking up the boxes thinking that it was a shack with guns or supplies. Then I realized it was moving with my controls and I was like "Wooh! a vehicle" when I ran into some rats and the biped aliens who proceeded to kill me with tennis balls and spawncamp me. Eventually I fell through the ground. But I think I saw a gun floating in the air when I spawned. I would like to wreak vengeance on those foul beasts. |

 So I landed my craft in the remains of an old forest, after a while i discovered it was swarming with rat like creatures. I barely made it out of there alive. |

 Its getting dark!  The forest is scary at night. Here is this weeks progress report: * World generates when player moves to new places.. ie the world is now infinite. * AI improvements, state machine ai framework. * Basic faction system ( NPC's knows whos friend or foe etc ) * Quest system framework with ONE! working simple test quest. * Made some test generating forests (need more models to make them prettier though) ...and much more that I can't remember right now  Oh btw, if theres any artist out there that wants to contribute. Please contact me!! |

no, not yet. But in the future i really hope so. One idea is to put huge (like 10x10km or more) biodomes in the desert that can support tropical environments etc. |

been working on backend stuff: * Hardware skinning ( too bad i just have one animated character atm) * rewriting and cleaning up mesh and shader system * made ship feel smoother when flying. ( no jerking around) Planning on creating a deferred renderer with support for post processing and so on. Still looking for artists btw  |

Working on a particle engine for fancy effects and sandstorms =D.
Then its back to adding gameplay features again, most likely the trade dialog.

 Yesterday i added support for manual texturing of the heightmap, in earlier builds all heightmap texturing was done in the pixel shader depending on the tilt of the ground. Thats nice and effective but its not very customizable. Now texturing can be done on the server side, and then sent to the clients..its some what more data but i think its worth it. It also opens the possibility to add random meshes along with the heightmap , like random grass, flowers, twigs and small rocks (theres already small rocks all over the gameworld but all these are actual game objects). I know the screenshot look like a pile of poo but hey, I'm no artist . |
