Not quite but I can forgive the assumption as it really does look like it. Its actually a pillared heightmap. It has some advantages and some disadvantages. If you look closely you can see the steps between cubes can be much smaller that the cube size giving smoother terrain
haha yes I guess it does have a bit of a minecraft vibe
And a snowy biome, now to populate the desert and snowy areas
#gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Started work on the desert biome.

The Great wall, A boundary between regions. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Fixed my prop system, found a memory leak and fixed a big in my northern mountain range.
Not much to show for progress but still good work that needed to get done.

Ouch two days, Thats painful.
I just spent an hour looking for a memory leak and that was painful enough.
I spent the day making a new prop system for trees and other things but ended up having to scrap the system and revert back to earlier code. Some days are like that I guess.

I will be doing a playtest on my discord at some point. It will be a month or so away yet though
Hope you enjoyed

More styles of dungeon entrances in my wip openworld roguelite. #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame
Cubic pillars, And good eye, most people don't even get that when I explain it.
The game is not really a building game so the disadvantages are not to bad and it does allow much smaller transitions between tile height allowing for smoother terrain
Working on dungeon entrances in my procedurally generated openworld roguelite #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev
I guess a light storyline. As for an option to make deaths not permanent I will think about if/how I can fit that in without breaking the gameplay(its not a bad idea)
Working on terrain generation.

The second boss level in Shovelware, coming to Steam soon.

I thought we called it Mr Driller :P To be honest Ive never played Dig Dug
I loved the Mr Driller games when they came out and although very similar Shovelware has big differences, 100 shorter levels, Boss levels, a multitude of traps but at the core that same style of fun block digging gameplay
Nope just a steam install
