Got some walls going now and a Floor in 3D. Next, Lets connect those rooms together ! and close off any open rooms. #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #houdini

Doing a seperation now between the path and the Walls. No path will Crossover a wall so there are clearly defined zones. Next, connect pathways together, and fix wall corners ! #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #houdini

So, I tried two Methods when the algorithm is blocked and has no way forward, One is a Reverse search, the other is a random position jump and keep finding neighbors. I do like the Position Jump, but I am interested to see how these generate a maze. #indiedev #gamedev #indiegame #houdini

Some more progress. Some searching now and no overlapping with neighbors that have already been found. Next, the reverse search once the Algo gets stuck so I can back track and build further into the maze... Perhaps I will go up ! 🤔 #houdini #vex #procedural #sidefx #environment #gamedev #indiedev

Made some progress last night and got some random neighbor search done. - 🔴= Starting Position - 🔵= All Connected Neighbors - 🟢= Random Selected Neighbor There is no Collision Detection or reverse search just yet, but its coming. #houdini #vex #procedural #sidefx #environment #gamedev #indiedev

The #houdini Journy has Begun !!! #procedural Level and asset generation is under way. I always love me some #vex as it have the most control over the data and math. Very simple start as you can see, but.... I am excited to share more. I'm also setting up my #assetpipeline, will share more later.

After doing some Bug Fixes and Project Cleanup, I am ready to dive into some new features and tooling. Houdini is Open, and ready to go ! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #unrealengine #ue5

Got quite a lot done this Sprint and I thought it best to add more to my plate... The sprint is Young ! with 10 days still to go... Lets see what I can do :D #gamedev #indiedev #Indiegame #codecks

Hey, To find out what kind of #indiegame I am developing. Go checkout the Newest Video on my channel. I show the up to date gameplay and explain more about what I am building. #gamedev #ue5 #rougelike #indiedev youtu.be/giMYAuwDP5M?...

Check out the #git Branching structure I use for #gamedev and #indiedev on a daily basis. For more details, checkout the video below: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfzT... #ue5 #unrealengine #sourcecontrol #azure

If you want to see where the the project started, go check out my latest video in the Devlog Series I have started: #indiedev #gamedev #unrealengine #techart www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nnk7...

Its been a while since I last Posted. So, I am going to finally do it after months of talking my self out of it. I have made some recordings and edited my first video for #youtube. I will be focusing on #indiedev and Asset Pipeline development. The first video will be live next week 😬

So.... The breakdown is taking a little longer than expected. I started out with a plan for 6 pages, and, well... We are past that now 😅 But I learnt a lot during this process and I want to share how I thought and why I made the changes that I did. #gamedev #indiedev

Hey everyone. I finally finished this setup to the point I can move onto other things now. Yes, still some timing and tweaking to do, but its at a good enough state for now. Sneak peaks coming soon, with Full breakdown later. #unrealengine #ue5 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegame #shaders #materials

An Initial test. Not too bad. There is still a long way to go, but Happy with this for now. Time to turn it into something ! #indiedev #indiegame #gamedev #unrealengine #ue5 #blueprints #c++ #cpp

Got a nice little Trace system to get closer to the RootComponent so I can always hide the floor when looking up at the Pawn #indiedev #ue5 #unrealengine #c++ #blueprints #gamedev

The initial thought for the first system I am adding to my game, An Occlusion Opacity system when the camera is blocked by an object. #ue5 #unrealengine #c++ #blueprint #gamedev #indiedev
