trying to do some simple stuff in 640x480x8bpp:

(pretty buggy and a bit slow though ;)

so inspiring to see all of this.
Figured I'd contribute.
Here's what I'm working on these days. Nothing too fancy but hopefully useful.

Raw stuff from "50 shades of k". I really need to work on design fundamentals such as colour choices. Kinda disappointing that postproc can turn into such a cliche.

mudlord, neat colors :)

@u2: reminds me of the texture in this demo:

IIRC it's generated with only a few bytes, and when the value exceeds 255, the modulo 256 makes the peaks appear (not on my picture)
But yours is moving, right?

@BarZoule
Shit dude, used to play so much with ACID, very handy for non musicians!

Working on a demo for sundown, and I've been posting WIP shots on twitter, so may as well post them here too. It's generic ray marcher #14852, and these are all test scenes, I'll stop posting once i'm past the "build the tech" part and into "make the demo" ;)

Beginnings, basic ray marching works, some simple lighting, and for various reasons colour grading got added early:


Typewriter :)


Figuring how to do non-cubic domain repetition without the glitches...


Turning space inside out...


Wrote a nice 'clamp to surface' function for those pesky inaccurate end-of-ray positions, which gave me nice smooth normals, so of course i went nuts with reflections :D


And where I'm up to. I think this is enough for a passable entry, but I really want to do something with decent content, so that's next.

A monkey head in 3/4 : { 0.0f,67.0f,25.0f,45.0f,33.0f,14.0f,77.0f,29.0f,56.0f,89.0f }

try that again without the blur @barti. and... i might guess the formula to shape that? work indeed. x)

I'm now on shadertoy too. \o/ My modest shading adventures so far.

Some WIP images from a game I've been working for over 2,5 years. Even though it's a commercial product it's heavily demoscene influenced. For example our end demo is about a ~10 minute long.. well.. demo :)








The game in question is called P.O.L.L.E.N

OH GOD YES so buying.

@pommak: :D I knew there would be a lot of demoish stuff in there but this is even more "non-casual" demo stuff than I expected to see - buying!

Some people with knowledge have described the ending as an 'mfx' demo. Soundtrack is actually quite nosfe-ish, try to find another game like that ;)

sounds good to me. Hopefully my laptop NVidia can handle it at some reasonable quality settings... Gotta also try it out in VR later this summer.

Pommak :O :D 8) Niiiice!

pommak: loving the first few minutes already - although whoever's idea was to mess with the menu size when changing FOV should be kneecapped :D

Stuck after playing 1,5h. Beautiful and atmospheric, and already got the first hints of some familiar effects :) - but now I'm stuck...

Looks awesome, but the reviews on steam seem to be.. mixed?

@Pommak if you port that to Mac or Linux (& keep the Oculus support!) I will be beating down your door with fistfulls of cash. Just saying.

pommak: Fucking awesome game, it's the kind I always wished I could take part in making one day. Huge respect.

Also let me know where to send the buglist to :D

Thanks, glad you liked it :) Would really respect if you could drop us a review.. some people don't seem to understand the game that well :P

If you can send a buglist, support@mindfieldgames.com would be the address!
