Two years ago today, my team and I were fired from the outlet that we rebuilt from the ground-up and put a ton of love and work into.

Next weekend we get to celebrate two years of independence, building something better than what came before, and the best community on the net.

Time flies.

Check out our first Design Notes, about Victoria 3 and what the Paradox game does right... And what we suggest to improve!
Screenshot of the strategy game Uncharted Sectors, it shows a 3D desert planet subdivided into regions, and various UI elements. A panel on the top shows the amount of resources the player has, and notification icons. A panel on the left shows details about a good present on the planet called "Space Melange". A subpanel shows an advisor portrait, with text saying "Spice Melange is thriving on foreign markets, we should take advantage of this by ramping up production!". Under this panel is another panel detailing a list of markets in which the good is imported, produced, consumed and exported on the planet, with the price at which the good is sold for each market. On the bottom part of the screen, the planet name is displayed, "Sarrakin", with the system's name being "Mua'Din". On the bottom right is a minimap.

Accidentally discovered a pixel art style for 3D planets 😂
Turns out, rendering tiny textures on a sphere is… surprisingly charming.

🌍 Prototype world generator in action!

It took some deep dives and serious headaches… but now we can generate stunning high-res planets in under 0.25 seconds.

Nested tooltip system: ✔️

The UI prototype now supports windows, panels, and tooltips that explain... other tooltips.

Today we check out Terrain3D for #GodotEngine. It's one of the most performant and mature terrain/landscape extensions for Godot, a feature that Godot is glaringly lacking out of the box.

Terrain3D just released 1.0 version!
