Two weeks ago over Easter I started working on a submission to the @Gamedevjs Jam. The theme was 'Raw,' and I wanted to create a processing pipeline simulator. This is how Super Simple Salad Simulator came to be. #gamedevjs

stas.itch.io/super-simple-s… It's my hommage to The Incredible Machine from 1993, and also to the vegetable salad, sałatka jarzynowa in Polish. It's a springtime treat in Poland. The full list of ingredients includes potato, carrot, green pea, apple, pickled cucumber, onion, boiled egg, and mayonnaise.

Last weekend I made a tiny action game about being an alarm clock on wheels.

Presenting: You Are The Snooze Button.

#LDJAM #gamedev #webgl You Are The Snooze Button can be played in all modern browsers, both desktop and mobile. It only takes a few minutes to finish it.

Play it here: piesku.itch.io/snooze

ESCAPE is a 2.5D puzzle platformer in 13KB of HTML and JS (zipped) by @michalbe and myself. It's a short story about wildlife and nature on Earth after mankind leaves for good. You can play it right now in the browser on desktop and mobile.

In ESCAPE, you solve environmental puzzles as you progress through a misty world abandoned by people. We were inspired by games like @Playdead's INSIDE and movies like @bladerunner, and we tried to convey a sense of loneliness, remorse, and confusion.

It's August again which means @michalbe and I are taking part in @js13kGames! This year's theme is Space.

We're joining a week late with a new idea: a 2.5D puzzle platformer on Earth abandoned by humans and reclaimed by nature. #js13k When the theme was announced over a week ago, we spent a few hours on Saturday and Sunday brainstorming game ideas. And to be frank, we didn't like any single one of them. They just didn't seem to click.

Gamedev.js Jam 2021 is happening over the next two weeks, and @michalbe and I are making a turn-based strategy game inspired by Risk.

#gamedev #gamedevjs #gamejam #javascript The jam's only restriction is that the game must be playable in a web browser. It's a refreshing change from the size-constrained jams that I typically take part in. I'm not used to not having to worry about the code and assets size.

I managed to get simple 3D physics working in the prototype for my WebXR game for #js13k. Best part is, I'm not using any extra libs! It's all vanilla JS, clocking in at 9 KB right now. The hand mesh alone is 3 KB so I'm sure there's plenty room for optimization, too. More #js13k progress! I added toon shading, a few textures, and replaced the hand mesh with a paw which has fewer vertices. This is now still around 9 KB zipped!

Have you ever wanted to be a Godzilla wreaking havoc in a city?

Part 2 of this experiment starts right now! Today, I plan to implement projectile, wall and pickup collisions. I'll generate the terrain procedurally, and I'll add a simple UI.

With this set of features, I want to build an MVP version of the game: loading a map, advancing through it, killing enemies and picking up items, and finally finding the exit.

I'm trying something new today and over the weekend. I'm making a simple 3D game prototype using Goodluck, a hackable template I created with @michalbe. I'll be taking notes along the way and tweeting them in this thread together with progress updates.

#gamedev #javascript The goal of this experiment is to create a tutorial about Goodluck which can be followed commit by commit. We don't currently have good onboarding docs for Goodluck, but you can learn a bit more about it at github.com/piesku/goodluck.
