Same effect with radial and distortion for the waterfall shader:

With some very bubbly caramel filling

For #ScreenshotSaturday this week, a mortar barrage to help pull into the lead:

Circuit Burn dev update: For #ScreenshotSaturday this week, a test run with powerups enabled:

Applying a bunch of downforce with speed not only makes the controls feel better and more responsive overall, it also lets you drive on the walls and ceilings like in Rollcage if you're going fast enough:

Circuit Burn dev update Friday: Reworked bot driver navigation again to make them faster and more aggressive. Still needs work to make them more aware of other cars in their line, but I'm happy that they can even handle The Big Jump now:

Speaking of labor-saving technology, doing some more godot editor tool work to place checkpoints for bot drivers to follow. Previously each point was an Area3D that I would have to create and move into position, now it's one click:

And a quick attempt at placing the shader in-game on the new race course - transparency might be a bit too high now that it's in a fully lit environment, but it's getting there!

Waterfall shader is working, using a cellular NoiseTexture2D, putting it in polar coordinates and scrolling outwards along with some noise displacement and particles.

Learned how to use Visual Shaders in Godot to recreate my Blender node setups - I can't say it was easier or faster than just writing it in code, but on the plus side it is a new thing I know how to do now:

Game dev progress today: Blendering, building props for the new course

For #ScreenshotSaturday this week, two new melee-themed power ups for Circuit Burn. Punch, which charges into the car ahead, and Kick, a sideways slam.

Still work to do on the bot drivers, especially on being aware of other cars around them, but they are navigating the course more quickly and smarter than they used to:
