This palace has unexpected twists and turn, some defy even space and gravity

Been absolutely loving A Twist in the Myth by Blind Guardian. It’s medieval mixed with power metal, and it absolutely shreds

I forgot to remove them, so you can see the items on the ground in the video. I'll make another post going more in depth about them at another time

With Godot 4.5 coming out today, I used the new stencil buffer feature to make the heat waves cut off between rooms.

To really see it, you need to look through the doorway, you can probably see the difference between rooms

Super excited for whenever it's finished. Although the prophecy doesn't say when it releases, so guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Here's a before and after, although the before version was outdated, but it still had the same rooms to it

Jex @jexdev.bsky.social · Aug 5

I really didn't like the look and direction of the previous version of the floor, so I re-made it from scratch with new textures and effects.

The music is still a WIP so, expect it to be extended further

Where do you find these movies? It would be amazing see what other films there are, that aren’t mainstream (at least where I am)

Been working on a few new areas. It's been mostly shader work, but these new floors (especially the garden) are looking spectacular.

A garden with the moon showing in the distance, and there is a bunch of fireflies surrounding a bush in the center

A desert with a brick pathway showing two pyramids with a bridge between them with the sun in the background

A different area in the garden with a forest on both sides

What game is this? I would love to check it out

Been working on a ocean level, you do not have to swim.
You do have slightly lowered stats, but their effect is minimal (e.g. slightly lower jump, slightly lower movement speed, etc.)

Found this small artist called Grand Chef, I really liked the dark tone of their songs. The songs can be a bit loud, so volume warning, but otherwise really good. Go check them out! www.youtube.com/channel/UC1P...
