Game developer with a focus on programming. Interested in almost everything. Not from Ghost Busters!
Got the rasterization working - sadly, it's really slow. There's definitely ways to do this much more efficient, but I think for the purposes of learning the process, this will do. #pico8 https://mastodon.social/media/R1CWgE4Zpdn5IsQA2NY
Trying to optimise drawing on the screen by using memory access directly, and some bug caused a fun glitch effect. #pico8
And that's the triangulation done. In the process I learned that in fact, the polygon from clipping a triangle against a square can have up to 7 vertices, not just 6. #pico8
Extended line clipping to proper triangle clipping. Triangle outlines + their screen space bounding boxes look quite cool in motion! #pico8
Finally got clip-space clipping to work! Turns out that the answers were in a paper from 1978 :D #pico8

Tried implementing rasterization and clipping in #pico8. My clipping seems to be glitching out, but I got to sleep, so have the result so far: https://mastodon.social/media/D-gTBcRLVGEk0NExuAo
Here's the #pico8 experiment I worked on yesterday. Wanted to try out @TRASEVOL_DOG's sampling render method for rendering 3D shapes.
It's not very optimised, but this is good enough for what I wanted to achieve :) https://mastodon.social/media/PO8Jm2jwD7UbgdOaUEQ
A previous game I'm quite proud of: Kryce, a bullethell game that you control with just an analog stick!

Kryce by Tilman Schmidt

Analog stick bullet hell

Given there's lots of new people, let's do another #introduction post:
- I'm Tilman, from Germany, currently studying Computer Science in the UK.
- Also learning Japanese.
- I do #gamedev on the side, as well as various other code-related things
- Also into 3D modelling and occasionally photography.

Here's a video of my latest prototype: https://mastodon.social/media/_123OM_Jyk2GuehJEDw
