I’m sure everyone is getting tired of playing Animal Crossing, and what better way to exercise your grey-matter than modding your favorite game. The other downside is these really are the dev tools we used to make the game, and like most in-house dev tools, they are poorly documented and very crude around the edges.

The purpose of developing Cocos Cyberpunk is to showcase the Cocos Engine’s ability to create complex 3D games on multiple platforms and to motivate the developers in Cocos community to learn game development. Today, I am thrilled to share with you an amazing 3D shooter game project that I think you’ll love.

What a year it has been, with the number of Godot submissions in game jams rising to new heights, more people working for the Godot Foundation than ever before , and most industry award shows featuring one if not more games made with Godot. And with that, the 2024 season comes to an end. A busy year inside the project as well.

As always, honoring the Godot tradition, this renderer will be super easy to use and run on as many platforms as possible. Improve Culling: Portals (rewrite as polygon-based) and Rooms. As such, ports for different platforms must be kept separate as they share little code. TODO for Milestone #3 (December 2016). and OpenGL ES 3.0

As great as this is, though, only very high-end and high-budget games will really make use of it.
