Last week, I shared a video with a friend of mine that explained the Wave Function Collapse and that got me excited about procgen again! So I thought I'd go back into exploring WFC with the help of Daniel Shiffman's video linked above ✨
This is sort of the brute force approach to that essentially is a walker that fills and backtracks, so it does run into a bunch of dead ends and endless recursions so there are fail safes to stop that.
This was done over a weekend and I hope I can go back and look at how others have done and hopefully re-attempt it in a better way :)
Hope to get back to doing more interesting proc-gen things!!
Thank you for playing the game :) I'm glad you found it fun.
I made the game along with Shamika Biswas (thepototo) who did all the art and writing along with design.
Technically yes, like all jams here.
- There will be a theme announcement on the 15th on our discord - https://discord.gamedev.in
- You have to make a game within 48 hours after the theme has been revealed.
- More information on the jam faq, but feel free to ask questions you may have.
- The jam is open to everyone, although to be eligible to collect cash prizes (if any), you would require someone in your team to have an Indian Bank account.
- There are no engine requirements, you can use whatever works for you, but a web-gl build is preferred as more people get to play your submission easily, using engines that produce large executables which are large in size can be cumbersome for people - to download, play and rate your game. Imagine yourself in their shoes having to download a 2GB zip file or play a game online. itch.io also has an upload limit of 2GB the last I checked.
All the best :)
The fundamental idea is to have a platform where folks can submit games that can be judged by either a jury or the public.
At the moment, you can probably use Jams to facilitate this. What would be useful in the case of awards is having options to create categories for people submit into and also the ability for people to submit games which are unlisted and private/secret.
Like imagine if the IGF was hosted on itch.io 🤔
I don't know if this is a side effect, but if I drag and drop the config file into the playlist it does use some of the config data, but the ⭐ seems to be a bit weird. I have to check again. So what seems to be happening is that when I set the star to something else, after I download the zip, that seems to reset to the previous (or in this case the first track in the list)
Aside: I don't know if you do this, but do you use the starred track info from the config file? If so, maybe use the loop count info also 🙈 because otherwise one has to manually put those numbers etc in again. Not super important, but thought I'd let you know :)
Aside from looping the whole playlist, in my case specifically for the kind of music (very tiny looping tracks) I make, looping a single track makes sense too 🙈 - Mini Loops by Yadu Rajiv (itch.io)
Either way :) looking forward to how you go about solving this! All the best again! 💪😊
