The Game has finally gotten a Website!

Very Interesting Articles from the last Siggraph! Some very cool Voxel Stuff as well.

If you are interested in keeping up with the development of the game, here is my tiny little Twitter account.

I recently read about Pixel Dailies and how the 2 People who started this have improved their Pixel Art skills.

They went from "not so great" to "very good". All they did? Create 1 themed Pixel Art per Day for 365 Days. It didn't even consume that much time per day and I just thought it was such an awesome idea. So, I decided to give it a shot as well. I am on day 3 and it's fun!

So, for everyone who needs an excuse to start doing Pixel Art, here it is!

Get Busy!

An "oldish", yet very interesting Interview of some of the more famous Voxel GameDevs: Branislav Siles (Atomontage Engine), Gavan Woolery (Voxel Quest) and Miguel Cepero (Voxel Farm). Sadly the Sound Quality isn't the best with some.

A short introductory Video from Siggraph of a successful attempt in creating holograms using Lasers. The "floating light Points" have been suitably dubbed "Plasma Voxels". As with 3D printing, a voxel representation for 3D data se ...

While not entirely an Article about our modern Approach on Voxel Rendering, this is still an interesting look at how Voxel Rendering used to be done in the Novalogic Engine (Delta Force Series, Comanche). Very short, but enough to get the idea on h ...

As a GameDev that relies heavily on Pixel Art, I've always wondered what the most adequate prices are for Pixel Art.

I found this great Article (on a great site for anything Pixel Art related to be honest):

2D Will Never Die

It explains in Depth what they believe are fair prices for Pixel Art sprites.

I would love to hear from other Artists what they believe is a fair price for their art.

/t/voxel is dedicated to all things Voxel! Be it Voxel Game Development, 3D Printing or just plain good ol' Cube Fetishism

After seeing this over at reddits' /r/voxelgamedev, I thought I'd crosspost this here, as this is a very interesting method for procedural cave generation.

Here are some excellent and very influential Sparse Voxel Octree papers:

Efficient Sparse Voxel Octrees

Gigavoxels

Out-of-Core Construction of Sparse Voxel Octrees

This list will grow with Time.

Come join 'us' (well, me at this point) at /t/voxel and share your Voxel Game Development, Art or even Research.

An upcoming RPG created by Gavan Woolery, set to release some time after 2017. Using a very new approach to voxel rendering using signed distance functions instead of the "traditional" approach of simple intersections.

A very promising Voxel Engine created by Branislav Síleš. Unlike the currently "typical" large Scale Voxel Engines, it tries to use Voxels for photorealism, as was attempted in the old days.
