It has been nearly three months since the last to-do list was created. It really is hard to say if it has been such a long journey because of holidays or if I am just getting bogged down. I have, all of a sudden, found it harder to wake up super early, and I am not sure if it is due to being tired …

Is this you?
You’re working 14-16 hour workdays for cents on the dollar.
You post your art and screenshots and no one notices.
Whenever you host a sale no one shows up to the party.
It’s pretty disheartening, isn’t it?

Hello and welcome to this weeks Dev Diary!
The last week went mostly by studying topics related to the project development - here is the short summary;

So I’ve been experimenting a lot lately with rendering lines on the ground, for the map in strategy and tactics games. Last post I already had this effect working for a square grid, but it wouldn’t work for hex grids because it was dependent on drawing pixels to match the grid. I ended …
You can now see the top ships using the tab at the top called leaderboard. Those URLs can be copy and pasted into the app, so you can try them out for yourself.
- the article presents how ordering mesh data can influence rendering performance
- compares different algorithms developed for this purpose
- the primary focus is on how to train these algorithms using machine learning techniques
- analyzes the results of dif…

Unity does not provide much direction on how to transfer game state between scenes. Some community suggestions are singletons, static variables or DontDestroyOnLoad. But these have other effects that you might not want. Here, I will share a pattern inspired by functional programming I call Stateles…

Hello and welcome to this weeks Dev Diary - the Summary Edition!
I have decided to use summaries in this Dev Diary for the time being, in order to concentrate more on research, project planning and creation and less on writing about it, until I have something more major to update. My aim is to do at…
Another week has passed and more progress has been made.
I ended the last dev log on the fact that the character creation process worked but was pretty rough. I'm happy to report that has been fixed. Upon account creation, the server now assigns a new character token automatically to the player acco…

No, I swear, we are still alive. With the holidays, birthdays, november and december just flew by.
The october post with a to-do list has been slowly been getting eaten away. Right now, for that near three month old post, I have audio, message system, and disasters left. And of course, a handful…
No video this week; I’m in the middle of a big update of Annun City, the main town in Chapter 2 of the Accursed Crown of the Giant King. I like to make videos as part of testing an area, and the area has been in flux all week.
So in lieu of a video, here’s an in-progress screenshop o…

Welcome to our fifth installment to the devblog series. First off, apologies are in order! We had to delay our meetings due to unforseen events which in turn led to late discussions on the devblog and further delays due to availa…
It's been a quick week.
The milestone for the month was to create an account login system that stored character and item data, and be able to retrieve that data through the client.
I'm happy to report that the first major hurdle has been crossed. Albeit roughly.
As it stands now, the user can start th…
Some points that were pending.
The format of the octree can be multilevel, keeping, instead of the color, the address of the octree that follows it, and if the octree that continues is the same, then it will be infinitely recursive, get to do a test of this and it worked.
In the first versions of thi…

After a malevolent cult enjoyed a continueing growth of popularity, it became a threat to all people who did not share their philosophy. In 1845, the cult had taken control by force over several city districts or even whole villages throughout Great Britain. Now, a priest is declared to sneak…
Among the data that are prepared before rasterizing are the masks in X and Y for each coordinate, the limits in X and Y the shortest length and the distance from the origin to the child rectangle, array of sums.
This algorithm traverse the rectangle that the cube occupies and calculates for each poi…
In the previous version of this algorithm, the way to level down in the octree was to maintain the arrangement of sums and masks for each level, calculating these numbers by dividing by 2.
In the current version there was an improvement in this aspect, instead of calculating for each level these val…
