Here's a little 3d heightmap builder and visualiser i'm working on at the moment, first ever pico8 project and i'm having a lot of fun with it. I'm planning on turning it into a little walking simulator with more to look at eventually, but for now this is all i've got. There's a lot of work to be done in terms of optimisation first.
The controls are directional buttons to move about, and directional buttons+z to pan and rotate the camera.
Here's a fun update, a little in the way of optimisation but a lot of changes to the visuals, the big change ones are adding water effects (with screen-space reflections) and adding clouds. Enjoy!
I like the way that faraway mountains become just a single line instead of a solid - very good atmospheric perspective effect.
That V2 update. I don't remember the last time I sat down to admire the view in a game. The water animation and slow moving clouds somehow seems so relaxing.
No pressure, but I would love for this to become a full game. I’m not sure that you should keep the heavy dithering, but it would be wonderful to see a 3D Terraria-styled game. Here’s a suggestion: add trees to this beautiful game.
Also, there’s some ugly flickering with the undithered colours
Ya the same as ryzorm I hadn't seen that water update that's really pretty! good stuffs
