Playing with water has always been one of the most gratifying gaming experiences for me. This looks really cool! 🌊
Working the water simulation for 🌳🏡Island Architect🏡🌳, my relaxing sandbox building game. The interaction between the water and simulation is starting to work well, allowing you to build dams and aqueducts!

if you can see this, you must be into some very niche games
Teasing some Zolar - a light survival game / immersive sim where your actions have unforeseen consequences. It's a love letter to 1980s/1990s ambient music, obsolete media, and adventure games.

There's LOTS of growing vegetation in Zolar. I call it Space Bamboo! 🎍 It's generated on the GPU to handle 100K+ individual stalks - yes, bamboo is actually grass! This makes things like collision tricky, but I'm doing it anyway. Here's a video where I'm testing my custom GPU collision system.

In 1977, media prophet Marshall McLuhan discussed CIA and FBI surveillance, and then turned it into one of the most mind-bending riffs on identity in the digital age I've ever heard.
