GameMaker 3D lighting demo update: the floor is now also shiny! ✨
After weeks of experimenting with screen space reflections and not being satisfied with the results, I just went with using planar reflections, even if it is more expensive.

Vibing with the theme from Fly Tales. Sounds like something from an early Playstation 1 game.

I did a double-take at my Steam library today because I thought Flow was on Steam for a minute.

Not quite a game yet, but I've been upping my shader game and experimenting with 3D stuff.
I'm grateful for the people in the GM community who've made tutorials and demos on these subjects: @dragonitespam.bsky.social, @xordev.bsky.social, xygthop3, pace_x, and Noah Pauw to name a few.

Added environment mapping to my GameMaker 3D demo. I wish GameMaker would natively support cubemap textures in shaders, as it would have made thing a lot easier, but seeing how the engine is focused on 2D graphics, I can see why it isn't a priority.

The AI bubble, from an investment standpoint, will likely burst, but I think the issue of AI replacing human labour is still out there, unless companies are really allergic to using open source models.
Investors worldwide stand to lose more than $1 trillion today because of the sudden fear that the market-sustaining AI spending boom might have been for nothing.

China's DeepSeek model shows all that massive AI spending might not be necessary.

I took some inspiration of physically-based rendering (PBR) methods and added in ambient occlusion maps and roughness maps. While the normal maps do most of the work in texturing brighter areas, the AO maps do the same for darker areas.

Worked on my GameMaker 3D lighting demo a bit more, now 100% more shiny! It also supports more lights and each of them are fully configurable.

I've been dabbling with 3D graphics in GameMaker again, after a long hiatus. After about a week and watching many @dragonitespam.bsky.social videos later, I made this basic lighting demo.
