Prototype is ready! But I can now proudly announce that a playable prototype for the video game GenoTerra is finished (and I graduated with the Master in Design *yay*). But before I explain the narration, I want to jump back in time when I started building the endless terrain generator. Master in Integrative Design.

This chapter is all about how I solved it (so far) to be able to place all kinds of assets like 3D-meshes or self-growing fractal seeds on the terrain. What Sebastian Lague did to work-around it when generating new terrain chunks on runtime is to use multithreading. Before we start. Freezing is simply annoying and kills the flow.

He also enjoys writing science fiction in what little spare time he has. Gabe develops models of worlds powered by the coding language C++ to test and simulate how rugged electric vehicles would handle the terrain. As for programming, Gabe loves 3D computer graphic modelling and rendering and visual arts.

We are a small team working on our first team project, Lumencraft, which is released as I'm writing this. Since the path of a game developer is rarely straightforward, I ended up as an academic at the university doing PhD in skin cancer research, and as a part of not doing the PhD I started writing my own game engine.

"A Native script", as in "a script you're writing", is just a script, just like a GDScript file, so it doesn't have access to those classes, it also can't extend engine functionality. GDScript is an excellent language for making games and quick prototyping. So you have to write your code outside of the editor.

The scope of this rebalance is way too large to cover in its entirety, and while I don’t plan to write about every aspect, we’ll be looking at the broad strokes and pick out some representative examples here and there. Exiles Prototypes. ASCII art for Exiles prototypes. Categorical Approach. Slot-wise Approach.

As I promised in this chapter I will dig deeper into the designing process around the creatures that will be walking on the procedural terrain. We rather think of an ideal or prototype bird like this one over here from a kid's science book. Designing the game world's creatures. The same is valid for weapons of all kind. Concept art.
