itch.io

Yup they seem to have been indexed pretty quickly after I made this post. 🥳

That's because it is the Linux duck lol! This game was originally made as a FOSS Linux Game.

Such as my coin pusher: https://pushergames.itch.io/tuxpusher
It's been available for a long time, I think all of my games should be indexed by now?

Other games of mine lacking indexing:

• https://pushergames.itch.io/pacgal
• https://pushergames.itch.io/tuxfishing

Pretty much most of my games have never been indexed, which I think is pretty bad.

I made sure I did all the meta-data and tags etc.

Lol this is an oddly really cool game.

Interesting game, moving speed and jumping gravity feels like it should be a tad faster but overall it's alright.

Interesting idea

So cool, very satisfying.

I like this style of game that you make.

This is fun! Well made!!

lol cool fun game

very interesting and funny game, the theme combination of doom and cute anime feminism is intelligent and well executed

you are extremely skilled at making games that feel, look, and sound good.

very good game design, fluid and not annoying to play

this is really well made, beautiful illusionary graphics

This is a really good game.

These are very high quality and professional models, looking at them in blender the topology is perfect for game-ready assets as there are no wasted triangles that are not visible. These models are perfect. Very well made. Also nostalgic, thank you for making these it was a pleasure to review them.

Lol this is a really great game, amazingly well made, fluid, great controls, amazing.

Hey your hitboxes for the play buttons on Ball and Flagman are broken, you might want to check the others too. I am using Chrome Browser. https://itizso.itch.io/retrofab

Clickable but very thin hitbox above the button.

These are very good btw well done.

Cool game

I love menger sponges. A great game.

If you liked Portal, and you liked Desordre, you will probably like this.

One of the few good games on itch!

 Yup I made the synth, that's my baby, I'm only really interested in Audio from a technical level, I'm not actually musically talented in a traditional sense and most of my knowledge and terminology comes from Digital Signal Processing and not in the art of music or composition etc.

very interesting art style!

Over the years I have seen various software that will render 3D models as 2D isometric art come and go, but currently the Drububu.com Vozelizer seems to be the main way to achieve this effect.

Is anyone aware of any other software that can produce 2D isometric art from 3D assets, or maybe even plugins for existing 3D modelling software such as Blender? If so please do share in this thread.

I am remaking a 2D game I made in 2009 in a fresh coat of new 3D AI generated graphics!

I maintain a small repository of free sound effects I have made with my Borg ER-3 tone generator project: https://github.com/mrbid/Sound-Effects

These are free to use, although I tend not to use sound in my games these days because I find it a bit tacky and annoying in video games, I can finally appreciate why adults used to get so frustrated by the crunchy noises coming from my GameBoy as a child.

Other sound effect archives you may be interested in:

1001 Sound Effects (*free)
App FX (paid)
BBC Complete Sound Effects Library (paid)
BBC Rewind Sound Effects (*free)
Sound Ideas Sond Effects Library 1000 (paid)

Sound Ideas released a lot of sound effect packs, such as the Warner Bros Sound Effects Library.

And ofc... https://freesound.org/

My first ever sound effect libraries where:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sound-Effects-Vol-Machines-Movement/dp/B000M4RCX2/
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sound-Effects-Vol-Nature-Animals/dp/B000M4RCXC/
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sound-Effects-Vol-People-Sounds/dp/B000M4RCXM
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sound-Effects-Vol/dp/B000M4RCXW/

Most sound effects are not game-ready and need to be mastered with software such as Audacity.

Although these days I am more into 3D content from generative AI (text-to-3D):

https://imageto3d.org
https://meshy.ai
https://lumalabs.ai/genie
https://www.sudo.ai/3dgen
https://www.tripo3d.ai/
https://3d.csm.ai/

So much so that I have created two assets packs of hand picked content from two of these generative services:

https://archive.org/details/@mrbid

https://archive.org/details/meshy-collection-1.7z (800 unique assets)
https://archive.org/details/luma-generosity-collection-1.7z (3,700 unique assets)

Details concerning Generative AI:

The forefront/SOTA of this technology is maintained by a project called ThreeStudio at the moment.

Typically what happens is Stable Diffusion is used to generate consistent images of the same object from different viewing angles however regular Stable Diffusion models are not capable of this and so Zero123++ is used for this purpose. Once these images of the object have been produced from different view/camera angles they are then fed into a Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) this will output a point-cloud of densities and NerfAcc is commonly used for this purpose by most projects. Finally the point cloud is turned into a triangulated mesh using Nvidia's DMTet.

Stable-Dreamfusion can be attributed as the first project that really kicked off this academic field for text-to-3D solutions, and while there are pre-canned image-to-3D solutions available currently they tend not to perform quite as well as most public text-to-3D solutions.

If you are interested in learning more about generative 3D here are some links you can followup:

The above Zero-shot generation models tend to be generated from a dataset of 3D objects, at the moment Objaverse-XL is the largest dataset of 3D objects being 10+ million in size, although this does include data from Thingiverse which has no color or textural information.

I've also written a Medium article which has a more wordy version of what I have written here with some image examples: https://james-william-fletcher.medium.com/text-to-3d-b607bf245031

If you are into the Voxel Art aesthetic you can Voxelize any 3D asset using the Free and Open Source Drububu.com Voxelizer or  ObjToSchematic.

I maintain a project that allows users to create Voxel art in the web browser and export it as a 3D PLY file, called Woxel. It's like a simplified MagicaVoxel / Goxel but with a Minecraft style control system.

Although Woxel isn't the only voxel editor that runs in a Web Browser, there are more listed in my article here! And I have a more comprehensive list of Voxel Editors here.

Tux Pusher is a re-production of the classic seaside arcade coin pushers, you have gold and silver coins, silver can be released automatically holding the left mouse button down but the gold coins must be played one at a time with individual clicks. The gold coins are your reserve coins. The aim of the game is to collect all 6 Tux Penguin figurines.
