Since "Overreact" (my React/HTML/CSS game engine) survived its first major test last week, a 2-day hackathon at work, I've decided to focus on just 2D features, and use it to build and release a complete game!

"Overreact", the open-source React/HTML/CSS game engine I'm building now supports basic 3D stuff.

It's still very alpha, and pretty light on documentation, but I'm liking where it's heading! :-D

Why did nobody tell me physics could be so much fun! Where have y'all been? 🤣

This is all running in the browser, built with React, rendering to HTML elements, styled with CSS, no canvas. 🎉✨💪

This feels so nice!

Split-screen, local 2-player? Yes please! 🎉✨

I spent some time at the weekend tinkering with my JS/HTML/CSS based game engine. It's a lot of fun!

martian,

@SteffoSpieler Nope, no canvas in sight! It's all HTML elements. Images are just background images on divs, using background-position to select different tiles or animate stuff. 😄

It's probably a terrible idea, but so far it's working really nicely.

martian,

@SteffoSpieler Haha!!! 🤣

Of course this has a lot of limitations, such as not being able to use shaders, but for the kinds of games I'm interested in making, I think it could be really efficient and let me prototype ideas really quickly!

martian, to react

Continuing my experiment of building a HTML/CSS based game engine, using . It's looking really promising I think...

Playing around with some variants. Here we have a simpler, less noisy version with fewer cracks and craters, and some mossy versions too which would be great for a dungeon setting perhaps.

Would love to hear your thoughts...

Do some people just not know that their kids tablet has a volume control, or do they just hate the rest of the world?

martian,

@Noneeeed Sit next to them and play some explicit trash metal at full volume. They'll get the message then!

martian, to pixelart

It's the start of something new!

martian,

@luftlesen Thank you so much. I just finished working on it and I'm so happy with the end result.

✨🎉 Version 13 of my retro texture pack is out now!

It's a small update, adding just 6 new textures, taking the total texture count to 345! But it's the first of what I hope will be weekly updates from now on. 😊

I'm working on some bigger textures, starting of course with big wooden doors!

✨ Version 12 of my RETRO TEXTURE PACK is out now, which adds a handful of new tech-base themed textures!

I'm revising the art style for Beep Boop slightly. I'm sticking with the 's 15-color palette, but I'm using them more freely, without the attribute-clash limitations.

I think it has a more of an "arcade" feel to it. Do you agree? 🤖⚡️🕹️

martian,

@hbons thank you so much! ☺️

martian,

@hischeekiness thank you! 👽💛

why does a PS2 game have a file named COMMANDLINE.TXT in the main WAD file

what command line? this is a PS2 game

martian,

@foone yep, all seems fine here! 🙃

martian, to pixelart

Hey gang! 👋 This week I've been working on a new title screen for Beep Boop! 🤖⚡️

What'd you think?

martian,

@noisetank thank you so much. I love working with the spectrum palette. It can be really challenging, but when it comes together just right it's super rewarding!

martian,

@Carnivius ah you've rumbled me, those aren't actually possible! 😎

It's not a real spectrum game, I'm just using the palette.

martian, to pixelart

🎉✨ Version 11 of my retro texture pack is now available!

It's just a small addition of 19 new textures this time round, focusing on outdoor stuff, such as tarmac, sidewalks, fences and cladding! Enjoy!

martian,

@brnrdbrk unfortunately there isn't a fixed palette, but I try to limit the number of colours in each texture as much as possible. I have been trying out some ideas for limiting them to a fixed palette though.

martian,

@brnrdbrk no problem, and sorry for not responding sooner, I've been trying to take longer breaks from social media! 😄
