Moons in Crystal--Video Devlog 5--"Technical Trees"
A video-devlog for the work-in-progress video-game "Moons in Crystal".
Specifically, this is the devlog for Thursday the 8th of May, 2025.
In which a new and vegetative moon is begun; that moon proves surprisingly technical to build; a shader animates tendrils; another pair of shaders gives movement to foliage; grass is encountered; a level is thought to be done; and miscellaneous changes and fixes are made.
"Moons in Crystal" is an isometric fantasy "space" metroidvania.
Fly a brass-and-crystal vessel through crystal-sphere solar systems; explore strange moons; avert a devouring doom.
(As the game is still a work-in-progress, any of this may change during development, of course!)
