Vehicle-combat-game-dev-day 484: GPU instanced grass. Only one mesh for now, but the rendering system is robust and supports a LOT of instances and is fully procedural, generating grass on the fly! The game's levels are fully RNG & procedural #indiegamedev #solodev

Uniform tool and layering system is now fully GPU accelerated. You can use large sculpting and painting brushes, surface filters, deformers and procedural layers on meshes with millions of polygons without any input lag or shuttering.

Bonkers vehicle action dev day 275: Train combat!! The train now has AI, weapons, health, can be killed and is physics based you can get on it! I also added some white-box freight carriages that unfold into ramps when damaged enough. There sure is a LOT going on! #solodev #indiegamedev #madmax #indiegame

This indie dev is making a game where you cut grass, but the grass grows back every morning. - Every day, the grass, trash, & weeds return - Dig up buried treasures to fund your gear - Find out why the grass always grows back It’s called Master of the Mow. Would you play this?

Dev day 382: I ported mesh blending to Unity 6 The effect has been making its rounds online for Unreal and I WANTED IT FOR UNITY! and Finally I have it in my game. It is so nice to get rid of the nasty seams in my procedural mesh based world! #wishlistwednesday #VFX #UNITY

vehicle combat game dev day 414: Some progress on the mesh for the boring machine (still largely untextured and many details missing). I also did some more effects for when it is eating away at the enemy vehicles. #indiedev #vfx #buildinpublic

solodev day 628: I added a free-paint mode to the paint booth. But instead of nice and flawless paints, the free paint is a really messy spray for that authentic destruction derby spirit! #solodev #indiegamedev #unity3d

My grass system is now closer to the release! It's now possible to draw up to 3 types of grass, or even more, but randomized or sorted by size. You can draw it on top of any mesh with the brush instrument I provide, or with vertex color paint in Blender.

It's been awhile. I've been quietly working on the third character for my game. His name is Yoru and he uses a big sword. Everything is still very WIP. His skills and ranged techniques are next. #screenshotsaturday #indiegamedev #indiegamedev #solodev

Earlier this year, we launched 4D Generation with mesh-based schemas like the car-5. Now, we're expanding to 30+ new schemas powered by Procedural Model Generation. This shift allows for fully functional and editable 3D assets—from submarines that dive to jet planes that fly. Here's a sneak peek of what's coming soon.

New mountain-scale shadow system in my engine. It is a planet-wide horizon visibility bake: every texel on the surface knows how much of the sky is open above it, and that feeds straight into the aerial perspective and sun shading. #indiedev #gamedev #computergraphics #procedural #terrain #rendering

Working on sparse volumetric light maps for WebGPU. Got generation part sorted. The resolution is adaptive, refining near geometry and skipping through most of the empty space. The video is question uses a map that's only 10MB in size, including everything. That's less the amount of GPU memory that a single leaf takes up on one of threes in the scene, or texture on one of the sign-posts. We get about 1 sample every 30 centimeters in the world space. As a side note: gave my renderer quite the workout, rendering each probe as a separate non-instanced mesh for debugging.

Working on a 3D/Pixel Art tileset to use with my custom level design tools Tiles can be textures or entire models, like on the larger walls (grass, moss and other details are procedural) At the end of the video I show how it looks in-game #gamedev #indiegame #lowpoly #pixelart

I built a Three.js rendering study inspired by Tiny Glade’s painterly aesthetic, and got it running at 120fps in the browser. Over the past few weeks, I’ve been studying how stylized games achieve that soft, handcrafted look in real time. Tiny Glade was a huge inspiration, and I wanted to use the browser as a constraint: no compute shaders, no native GPU access, and single-threaded JavaScript. As part of this study, I implemented: - GPU-driven instanced brick walls with procedural noise jitter and elastic build animations - Tree, bush, and flower rendering with billboard card expansion, wind sway, and grow animations - Procedural grass with terrain conformance and interactive push deformation - Animated water with layered noise, interactive ripples, and Fresnel-based reflections - Procedural terrain with slope-aware triplanar materials, dirt paths, and rocks - A 7-pass post-processing stack with TAA, bloom, depth of field, painterly filtering, ACES tonemapping, 3D LUT color grading, and film grain The hardest part wasn’t writing any single shader. It was making all of these systems work together at high frame rates inside WebGL, where every millisecond counts and performance problems compound quickly across animation, materials, post-processing, and scene management. Some techniques in this study were inspired by analyzing Tiny Glade’s rendering approach, while others were original implementations built from scratch from visual reference. That contrast taught me a lot: recreating an effect is one challenge, but designing your own shaders and systems to achieve a similar feel is a very different one. This is a private educational rendering study. Some temporary placeholder content is being used during the research phase, and any public or production version would use original or properly licensed assets. Huge credit to Pounce Light for the incredible art direction and rendering work in Tiny Glade: Three.js #gamedev #webgl #threejs #rendering #graphics #realtimerendering #shaderdev
