I'm getting Cozy Country ready for launch and every wishlist makes a big difference for a small game like this. If you like landscape builders, please take a look and consider adding it to your Steam Wishlist (or sharing this post). It truly helps a lot❤️

I just picked up Ubisoft's Avatar game for research - totally worth it. I don't know how the Snowdrop engine achieves all this micro detail but the amount of it is kind of staggering😮 Easily the lushest game I've ever seen, plus ray tracing, and this is on a base ps5.

You can create bridges in Cozy Country. I like to place them where there's a nice view. This is a game from my heart, where you can just sit back, create, and relax❤️ Coming to Android, iOS, Mac and PC Wishlist Cozy Country on Steam:

Just added splash effects to the procedural rivers. The game now also generates persistent rivers that flow throughout the world. I’m currently wandering around discovering them in action. #Wilderless #IndieGame #iPad

Finally got variable width working in procedural rivers using a world space post process so they feel less roadlike. I'm thinking it would be good to add wider = slower and thinner = faster, and maybe increase the depth of the carving in thinner sections? iPad Pro (2020).

This is how I test #Meadowfell's new unified tree shader to ensure it works across all tree types. I'm porting it back to Wilderless, and using it in my next game, GrimShiver, for better control over the environment in crafting a haunted world 👻 #indiegame

Titanic Dracozids are very rare, I wasn't even sure if one would generate. So I was happy to come across one in the forest. At this size she can walk faster than I can run. #Wilderless #herds #dragons #proceduralGeneration

$What makes Red Dead Redemptions 2 rivers the best rivers in videogames? I don't think they use fluid simulation. Plenty of particles, foam, mesh undulations, refractions and depth... every river, stream and creek in RDR2 is naturalistic and gorgeous.$

Years ago, watching pines sway in Skellige's winds in Witcher 3, I dreamed of making games that capture nature's magic. Now, with #Meadowfell’s wind system, I’m thrilled to just watch trees dance in the breeze, framed by bright sunsets and deep shadows. #GameDev #IndieGames #iPad

Procedural buildings are for #GrimShiver, but I think I'll also add them as toys in the #Wilderless games. This is my first test at using gizmos to change a house - just the width/length/height for now, and thinking which other variables to expose.

Wilderless' procedural river generator completely bugged out and created a half-mile high pillar with a sunlit grotto in the centre. Even though it's a bug I have to fix, it's still kind of cool to see procgen create things you don't expect. #BugsHappen

No variable widths or shaders updates today, but I did get river connections in😀 Procedural rivers can spawn anywhere and they seamlessly connect when they meet. Eventually I’ll make them grow with each merge, but for now I’m happy with it.

Big thanks to Jan Orszulik for helping me get flow maps working with my procedural rivers. Here's a look at the results on an iPad Pro 2020. Be sure to check out his page and follow his beautiful game project, an incredible blend of art and engineering. #indieGames #Wilderless

Meadowfell on iPad. I ADORE rivers so they were one of my favourite additions. If you create multiple ones they'll join up as well with waterfalls, and rivers are in Meadowfell, Wilderless, and Dune Barrens😃 #indieGames

Indie dev isn’t just a job. it’s my passion. Meadowfell, Wilderless, BrightRidge, and Vandgels mean the world to me, but right now sales aren’t enough to support me. I’m facing a tough decision, but I’m not giving up yet❤️
