Ok, I had the plan to make one big post per month, but that did not work out. Everytime I wanted to create an article I decided it is a better idea to code. So I will continue with my regular tweets.

I did a lot of stuff in the last months. The design for a new game description language is finished. I hope that I can code faster with it once it is implemented!

Here are some screenshot of the new voxel background landscape. In the last version the creation of one segment took 10s. Now it takes 0,1s!





And voila the new dungeons are finished. Only the zombie is a little bit too peaceful (he does not want to attack the player).




I changed the internal data structure of the game engine in order to be abled to create much larger landscapes. I need to debug this intensively before I can make a new release (or else it could destroy your save games).

This Grand Life has now been fully released onto the main branch.

A big thank you to all the players who have been on this journey with me. We've grown our careers, bought our first homes, become landlords, started our own businesses and invested in stocks. We've been homeless, alcoholics, avid collectors and lottery winners.

If you're looking for even more content, remember there's Steam workshop support. Here you can find some mods like Vlade's megamod, which has a large number of additional career paths like sports star and criminal.



Thanks for playing This Grand Life, I hope the game helps you in your real life in some little way!

Hi All,

We're very pleased to announce that after a delay of several months, Solar Wind launches to the public as an EA release.

We've chosen EA as we know that there are a lot of you who love this genre and by releasing as early access, we would like to give you all the opportunity to help shape the future development of Solar Wind, as it moves forward from another of our retro inspired games towards the ultimate classic side scroller.

We're sure you'll love our current nods to various games, and rest assured, we'll be adding more levels, developing more weapons and more bangs for your bucks as development continues.

We welcome feedback, so please feel free to commment.

Thanks, and enjoy.

The JimJams Games team.

In a world of growing urban populations and worsening effects of climate change, we’re inviting artists like you to imagine and create an environmentally sustainable city of tomorrow.

http://forum.masterpiecevr.com/t/sculpting-contest-imagine-and-create-a-sustainable-future

We’re looking for models that creatively take on the urban challenges around water, energy, transportation, agriculture, waste management and sprawl.

Create a model in MasterpieceVR that represents a sustainable concept that matters to you and submit it to our #sustainablecity contest for a chance to win one of several prizes and see your model included in a growing VR city environment.

We’re not looking for scientific or engineering accuracy - it’s all about creative designs!

The contest will last from April 17th to May 29th, and we will be updating a virtual city environment every two weeks with our favourite submitted models, and giving prizes to the best #sustainabilty concepts and best models.

The virtual city will be available in MasterpieceVR as a sculpting environment, giving contestants the freedom to explore the city and get inspiration for models they’d like to create.

Let’s imagine a more #sustainablecity, and build it collaboratively!
