If you’re wondering what the heck I mean by #bloxel, it’s a term I think I came up with, combining “block” and “voxel”. I like to differentiate between Minecraft “grid-based but not entirely made of cubes” worlds (since there’s things like stairs, slabs and fences), and a more “proper” voxel game like Teardown or Veloren (FOSS) since the aesthetics and technology behind it are typically pretty different.

Something I came across recently that re-ignited my interest was this game called Cubyz that recently released its version 0.0.0. It started out being written in Java but went through a rewrite in Zig. I like that it already has distant chunk rendering (using LOD) and infinite terrain in all 3 dimensions.Gonna just drop the release video here: https://youtu.be/jm_0nRQEn_o

Through asking around in Bevy’s Discord, someone (well, a developer) told me about Riverbed. A #bloxel game built with #Bevy, and thus written in #Rust. It has less gameplay than Cubyz but an equally interesting foundation to build a proper game on top.

Just realized trying to get people to stop using AI probably has similarities to trying to get people to stop eating meat.

Been debating whether I should even post this, because I haven’t on my main account, properly, and I’m turning into “that dork that never finishes projects anymore”, buuut … well this one hopefully has a small enough scope to be doable!There’s not much to show off yet, but I don’t mind stringing people along who are interested in the (slow but steady) #GameDev journey.So I have been and hopefully will continue to be working on an #OpenSource #bloxel game that’s a recreation of the 2009 version of Minecraft, now referred to as “Classic”. A simple, creative-mode sandbox with limited world size, multiplayer and browser support, build with #Bevy in #Rust.This is.. interesting, because 15 years ago I wrote my own custom Minecraft server(s) in C# for this version. So kind of also returning to my roots in a way?https://git.mcft.net/copygirl/bevy-bloxel-classic (Now with.. build instructions, I guess?)

@brook I don’t mind as long as they just offer a good service that people actually want, setting a good standard. However, their anti-competitive practices need to stop / be stopped. That is, requiring games to be priced the same on other platforms, even if Steam keys are not involved (which is a common misconception).

Which games have subverted the “refill before boss fight” trope / expectation?I’m curious how people would react to the buildup in tension from a refill room, lore dump, gradual build-up in atmosphere as they approach the apparent boss room, with the character themself growing anxious, only for them to trip and fall, lose all their items and/or have something completely different and unexpected happen.

I haven’t yet implemented different types of blocks in my bloxel game, but as I was experimenting with hot-reloading block definitions, I realized it only affected newly placed blocks.

I’m legit stuck naming things again. Maybe fedi can help.I have an single block asset source file that gets parsed as two different assets, one for common (server+client) properties, say display name, collider, behavior, … and a client one for purely visual information like mesh, material, color, …Currently these two are called BlockType and BlockVisuals. But since they come from the same source file, should they share the same base name (BlockTypeVisuals)? I’ve also been toying with BlockDefinition and BlockAppearance.Please advice. 💚

I’ve found myself avoiding watching #YouTube videos that have #AI summaries on them (like through the search), but I’m not sure if that’s something creators opt into or if it’s one of those things YouTube decides to push on people (including creators) without their consent.

Here’s a custom #uBlockOrigin filter to hide AI summary from #YouTube search results, without hiding human-made chapters:# Hide AI summary from YouTube search results.www.youtube.com###collapsed-label:has-text(Summary):upward(#header)

I just realized I completely by coincidence created issue number #22222 on Bevy’s issue tracker. Yay? 🎉

I’ve finally decided that I’m gonna start unfollowing some people because their posts / boosts lack appropriate spoilers / CWs for topics I’d rather not be reminded of constantly. I want to have hope. I want to see beauty.Hopefully I can remember to properly do the same with my own posts, but please give me a (friendly) reminder if I mess up.

Today I was once again reminded of the hit video game a nostalgic blast from the past called “Machines”, made in 1999. (I really enjoyed being able to directly control units in first-person.)But I also found out that a couple of years ago, around its 20th birthday, the game’s code has been released under GPL, with the assets also freely available for download.https://github.com/WiredForWar/machinesManaged to compile and run it, and am tempted to throw the package on the AUR. Though I should probably playtest the game beforehand a bit.

Currently can’t create an account on #StoatChat because the verification email isn’t coming through. I do hope they’re gonna handle the influx of users well enough, but this is just another reason why federation and making it easy to host (and have people join) custom servers is more important that a “maybe” that isn’t even on the roadmap. Don’t become the BlueSky of Discord alternatives.
