SO: Why is your player just a capsule?
Me: It's a first person game, so you never actually see the player.
SO: But why not make it like a clown face or something?
Me: I don't know anything about texture mapping.
SO: So?

This is much, much easier to reason about and keep track of my streaming level layout than what I had before, which was just a list of levels in my LevelManager:

Working on some tooling to help visualize the world graph in Superspective, here's my progress! I have dynamically-sized level nodes, with Rect edge-to-edge directional (or bidirectional) arrows indicating the levels that should be loaded from each active scene.

Investigating a bug with portals in Superspective, stepping through the code in my debugger, and it leads me to a bit of code I wrote -- with this comment written above it.

Welp. I guess that tracks lol

Working on some fake volumetric light effects for Superspective, what do you think?

Here's a peak at the new level Locus Maximus, available to be explored now on Steam!

Made some improvements to the glow around interactable objects. New version handles corners of objects much better and is a bit thicker and easier to see in general. This was something minor that's bothered me for a bit but never felt important enough to prioritize, I'm glad I finally did!

Proud to show off the new official art + logo for Superspective! Thanks to the wonderful artists at Red Potion Studios for helping give a professional touch to the game😄

The only time I need to modify my scripts to accommodate being saved is by specifying explicit save/load instructions (such as calling a function), and marking fields in classes as [DoNotSave] and a couple other handy attributes to modify how they are saved.

Here's what it looks like afterwards:

I think I probably coded like 7 or 8 hours today working on a revamped save system that will drastically reduce the amount of manual code (and thus room for manual errors) I need to write for every script in the game.

Here's what a typical boilerplate I would need to write looked like before:

Working with an art team to develop the Steam capsule art for Superspective, and I'm torn on a subtle detail. Want to collect some feedback about whether the text (other details aside) grabs the attention more/looks better WITH an outline, or WITHOUT?

Trying to find some good screenshots to use for the Steam page that I'm working on. Here are some of the ones I'm thinking of using: (Pt. 3)

Never used Bluesky (or Twitter, for that manner) before! Excited to try it out :)
