[WIP] I am modifying the planet editor in my game so that it can generate foamy edges for water and other liquid surfaces.
I would also like to add support for shorelines.

Hey folks! I uploaded a lot of rough sketches and explorations for my personal project set in the Tron universe. Obviously it's all super work in progress, but people seemed to dig them when I shared a few weeks back

it's unbelievable that there aren't decent 3D level editors in active development.
you'd be hard-pressed to find a more high-impact, highly-historically-explored, yet under-served problem space in gamedev tooling today

Hey #PitchYaGame!
I'm making an atmospheric 3d platformer where you're a robot pole-jumping through an underground complex!
🏃- Unique staff-based movement
🏚- Huge abandoned megastructure
🎞- Wordless story to piece together
The game comes out the 10th of November!
Wishlist it here: s.team/a/2980260

Still stressed, still bugfixing, still tweaking, still stuff on the todo list but still time so hopefully the game turns out ok!
Really hope people enjoy it, but regardless I've learned a ton and even if it's not 100% perfect I'm still really proud of what I've been able to make!
