an important optim for any isometric RTS: split the map into sectors, and do frustum culling. I know that Unity already has great culling, but it feel wrong to only rely on Unity for it, what if we want to have huge maps? Of course, logic and rendering has to be completely decoupled, because entities in invisible sectors still need to "think". And of course, I broke the minimap because all sectors must be visible in it at all times. But it's fixable by manipulating visibility though rendering layers instead of mesh renderer state.

if you are making an isometric 3D game, one of the easiest and highest impact improvement to lighting you can make is to take your lighting rig, and shove it inside the camera hierarchy. It gives a consistent lighting from all angles! no idea why it took me so long to do this

thanks guys for trying the demo! this feels different from the initial demo that we pushed last year in the steam RTS fest. Back then, 95% of feedback was about "lack of tutorial". It made me sad because I didn't really enjoy the game back then and I felt that making a tutorial was pointless. this time, we still don't have a tutorial, only few minor objectives, and still got 10x more feedback. And real feedback from players that played a lot, some of them replayed the same mission many times. for the first time in almost 3 years, I feel confident about encouraging people to try Powerplay. And it will only get bigger and better from here, because I decided to finally end my solo developer era and finally get a partner to help me ship this motherfucker! If you have been following the development you should know who I am talking about 😉 I will announce it soon!

we have biomes! using a palette but for terrain and trees. We have 4 fixed texture types: base, nature, light, and dark. Each biome defines the set of textures, and a type of trees. The terrain is painted with indexes into the palette. Thanks for coming to my ted talk

when packed with refined uranium, trucks have the "suicide" ability. No tutorial needed!

expansion mechanic done! Once deployed, the BEV (base expansion vehicle) becomes an expansion hub, which allows basic construction and industry. It can be packed up and moved, like the Terran command center in SC. Or it can become an advanced and permanent construction center

fooling around with the map editor. It feels so much faster since I removed the GameObject overhead from everything except the units and the buildings

1 month and 18 updates since the public demo! My next focus will be implementing the skirmish mode. Alexander Tanasie will focus on the campaign. Can't wait to show you what we have in store

it's perfectly ok to simulate 3D pathfinding on a 2D grid. It's all about edge detection: mark cells between different elevations as unwalkable. Mark cells as walkable to create a "ramp" between levels. Keep a height map to vertically displace units. PF simulation remains 2D

we finally have walls! a must have in any RTS imo. I am not sure how important it is to prevent units from shooting through walls. I think it could be frustrating if ranged units are just sitting behind a wall and unable to attack

the new pathfinding is fast and is dealing well with resource extraction. It used to get messy when assigning a big group of units to a small mineral patch or a wall of trees. I think not having thousands of pathfinding exceptions in the background helps with the speed!

Elevation proof of concept. This was strongly requested by Alexander Tanasie because it's hard to design interesting maps without elevation support. Pathfinding works by making the edges unwalkable. A ton of fixes and polish is needed but the concept works

it's been a while! our schedule got wrecked by the holiday season, but we are coming back. I want to ensure the demo is fun, polished, and accessible before the next marketing blitz. we are getting close

we released the demo 5 days ago. Pushed 7 updates so far. Players seem to like the game vibe and the unique industrial logistics. Nice wishlist spike. Received a publisher proposal, may have great news next week. Thank you so much for playing and for the yummy feedback 🙏

Making progress on the game, but still no public demo in sight! We will get there when we get there. I hope you are all having a nice summer!

trying vertical gameplay in the snow. I really like how the oil derricks look. But I will have to find a new visual for the stone mineral, which is barely visible in the snow :(

I finished the explosion FX for the new buildings. Someone one Reddit suggested to keep the debris longer after the explosion, it worked so well I think I will consider a real persistent debris system when we get into the polish phase!

just finished integrating the shipyard. It can spawn naval units like the corvette and the uboats. I tried placing it on water but it doesn't look good because we don't have shallow shores (yet). So it is constrained to the coast but must be on shore
