Since having one mega game project at a time isn't enough, I started doing a #SimTower remake 🏬 side-project.

Hell, elevators are hard! 😳

My PC just had a "bluescreen" at #Windows startup, after which it conviently so happens to have changed my default browser settings from @firefox.com to #Edge. Crazy how that happens, right?

How do I make palettes? #2 🎨

The lowest colors start at value ~11-18.
Matte materials got up to ~65, reflective to ~90+

Let's see how to apply this by using one palette to create different materials.

How do I make palettes? 🎨
I get this question often times.
Short from, I use photos and iterate from there as you see here with the marble pillar.

I know it has been some time, but things just take time in gamedev and patience is required... a lot of it actually. 😅

Here is new stuff! Using 3 lights: The actual light source, a unlit "emissive" light-sprite and a shader-generated bloom-sprite.

When I'm (re-)concepting my tilemaps my community often times recomments your posts and videos and we've looked into them quite a few times. It is so interesting how to approach those things, so thanks for sharing! <3

Working on Minecarts I took a look at #Minecraft and thought: Wouldn't it be nice to cause damage at a certain speed?

To be honest, this is way more fun than it should be... 😅

Nice feedback! I tried the same before, showing it without checkmark and others came to the same conclusion. Normally I've got some higher contrast, but for the ground it would just be too much, idneed. :)

Making new ground tiles for the mines🏔️⛏️

It always takes some testing to find out what works best. These final contenders varied in brightness, stone shape/plasticity, amount and dirt structure🪨🖌️

What do you think about the winner?
