3:40 is so satisfying, I'd keep it like that. Great work, btw, can't wait for more!

[@haubna]

Haha yeah picking up such a huge pile indeed is satisfying :D

[@SimonHesjevik]

Yo this is super cool. great job man!

[@haubna]

Thanks :)

[@xvtitanbane2349]

The game looks really awesome, for only a few months of work it already looks like the kind of Early Access game I could get on steam and some of them have been worked on for years! I love the way your building works, hanging them off sky islands is really awesome looking, can't wait to see how it progresses :D

[@haubna]

I seriously appreciate comments like yours! Thanks mate. That keeps me motivated! :)

[@xvtitanbane2349]

@@haubna Np, your devlogs are some of the only ones I can watch all the way because you keep me interested the entire time, I really love games like this and im excited to see more.

[@salgadinhoroxo]

Look's very cool. I would buy it.

[@horst8844]

Your game looks so nice I love the flying Islands 😀

Hey man, are you looking for mor edevelopers?

[@haubna]

Not right now, sorry :o

[@MattJSowards]

@@haubna aw okay, keep it up i love it! i have 6 years experience ue4 so i will share!

[@larslien9775]

Are those clouds inspired by Sebastian Lague? Also nice work! I like the UI!

[@haubna]

Indeed! I saw his video and thought I should give it another try :D

[@peterkruse9670]

Will there in the future be some sort of game modding, like users can create mods for the game. Otherwise it looks so good, reminds me of minecraft, but in a MUCH better way, keep up the good work bud

[@haubna]

Yeah I would love to support modding. But it purely depends on how many people will play the game. If there will be enough I will be making a modding API for sure!

[@GuckGuck]

Great work! I'm looking forward to play this game! :)

[@urielcohen9251]

Wow looks amazing! question: where did you learn to do all of this? also are you planning on doing some tutorials for the things you implemented like the server-client architecture and gui using opengl and more?

[@haubna]

Coding in school and graphics stuff just online. I would love to make some tutorials but they would slow down the game dev progress.

[@urielcohen9251]

@@haubna Yeah thats understandable, thanks! good luck on the game and the series the quality is really good right now and will only become better. ps getting strong ThinMatrix vibe from your vides. keep it up!

[@blackpanda1302]

@@haubna yes plzz make tutorial how you you make ur engine etc

[@haubna]

@@blackpanda1302 I might do them in the future, not sure yet :P

[@YouKnowNate2]

I don't know if you made this a feature or not because I am behind on this devlog series, but I think it would be cool if there was an option to turn off the grid thing (with the lines) for more free building. But an option to turn it on for cleaner building.

[@haubna]

The lines thing was only for testing/debugging. It's already gone :D

[@YouKnowNate2]

Haubna ahh okay

[@RamHomier]

Incredible, nice sky and you mentioned in another video the link for realistic sky shading and then you said that you simplified it to be more customizable. Can you elaborate on that? I understand that it does not need to be physically accurate but I would love to learn how to code a nice looking sky.

[@haubna]

At the beginning I used mie-rayleigh scattering. Now I am only using dot products and the pow function :P

[@alexjandro2380]

Sooo cool

[@_ace55]

Haubna macht Game Dev Videos? Geil :D

[@icerise2128]

Great job, it looks amazing! I have some questions about your game/engine and i wonder if you could maybe give me some pointers if you have time. Do you have a discord or something similar?

[@haubna]

Na I don't have any but you can ask it here, I will reply as fast as I can :P

[@icerise2128]

​@@haubna How do you handle the networking? Do you use ObjectInputStream and ObjectOutputStream or just send arrays of bytes as packets? Is there any kind of method you can recommend to me since im trying to do something similar?

[@haubna]

I am using netty and a packet based system. Minecraft has a decent networking code so you could take a look at that!

[@icerise2128]

@@haubna Thanks!

[@sbn0671]

2:06 Are clouds generated just in fragment shader with some noise applied or is there any 3d model with a cloud shader?

[@haubna]

I have some pregenerated noise textures. But other than that everything is done in the fragment shader.

[@sbn0671]

@@haubna Thanks!! Your videos always motivates me to switch back to my own game engine from Godot! :D

How skilled does one have to be start making our own games? Do we need a cs degree??

No probably no guns, but other weapons :)

The building is similar to rust, but with fortnite’s editing style...
