I love adding critters to game worlds using a simple particle system so you can draw as many as you want with almost zero performance cost. Here are some fish that orient to a random velocity with noise; one draw call for all, no code, just a bunch of "sparks" really

it is such a joy to be able to work on an effect inspired by "the" classic win98 solitaire gameover screen!! might iterate next week and make them leave trails by not clearing the background like in the oldschool original #gamedev #screenshotsaturday #phaser #typescript

I love #godot multiMeshInstance3d which can spawn 150k grass meshes on my terrain and since it uses gpu instancing and only one node3d in the scene it's still 60fps+

make small games. if you don't have the skills to hack out a polished Pong clone in a weekend, your 6-year dream game project is in serious trouble

today's #gamedev fun included starting work on a space level for an on-rails flying game featuring a witch on a broomstick! (black magic lets you breathe in space of course) work in progress with a more detail and gameplay to come (speed boosts, spinning lasers to dodge etc
