Saber’s Katana Jam 3

Experience a wild club adventure like no other!

Raid the club and collect as many valuable items as possible before the time runs out. Try not to get caught by the security guard while you’re at it! If you want to buy yourself some time try to toss items at the guard.

This GUI for Unity shaders provides a material inspector with automated shader properties grouping.

Features:

• Automatically organize ungrouped material properties by their underlying type (Eg. Textures, Ranges, Floats, etc.)
• Group properties together that follow the convetion [Group GroupName].
• Search for properties
• Display enabled passes.
• “Edit Shader” button that also works with Amplify Shader Editor.

Really useful for Node-based or AI-generated shaders that have a lot of properties exposed.

Adding it to your shaders

The name of the Shader GUI is “KrisDevelopment.OrganizedShaderGUI”. Placing this string in the Custom Shader GUI field of Amplify or as CustomEditor in your HLSL code will draw the shaders with it.

HLSL Example:

Amplify Example:

Shader Graph Example:

Custom grouping

Groups are defined directly in the property’s public name. For example, a property named [Group World-Blend-Options] "World blend enabled" will appear as part of a new World-Blend-Options group. Supports only one word for the group name, deeming hyphens necessary if the words are compound.

HLSL example with adding properties to a Base-Properties group:

The same approach can be applied for all types of shader tech, that expose the display name.

Search

This Unity shaders GUI also supports searching for properties. Here’s an example:

Global Game Jam 2020

Your ship got damaged in the middle of asteroid field! Don’t worry, SPACE JOHNNY 5 is here to repair it for you in the middle of the galaxy! Fly a little drone to repair your spaceship which got damaged in an asteroid field. Use WSAD and the mouse to control the drone. Picking up rocket boosters increases your speed for a while. Pick up spare parts and bring them back to the ship to win the game. Watch out for your battery though – flying around and hitting obstacles deplete it. You can pick up spare batteries to recharge it but if it reaches zero the drone is dead.

Description

This foliage shader package is designed to help you achieve immersive vegetation for your games.

Simple, user-friendly setup. Lightweight. Scriptable.

Enjoy smooth and customizable wind effects, which work perfectly with unity’s latest physically based rendering features.

Added support for character interactions!

Note: BRP and SRP support included in the package. Some “empty” materials might occur depending on which rendering pipeline is used in the project.

EtherCubs is a web3 framework, building on top of Nethereum for the Unity game engine.

This package allows easy communication with the decentralized Web3 space, where user data is hosted on the blockchain. It will also come with game-ready dapps, like the Web3 Game Server Browser and the planned Web3 Workshop, along with variety of tools for managing connection to your web-api nodes, code generation and more.

So why would you need EtherCubs in your project, why is it relevant?

Data on the blockchain is immune to a lot of the problems that conventional servers have. It is public, easily verifiable and secure. If you are building a community-driven environment for your game, such as building your multiplayer model on dedicated community game-servers, chances are you need to worry about future-proofing the architecture around it. Say, if your self-hosted “master” server goes dark, players lose access and your entire community goes down with it. Same point goes for modding workshops and other web-based features.

Another driving factor is not needing maintenance. Contrary to conventional servers you don’t need to worry about backups, rollbacks, cost and load. All that is handled on the blockchain.

If that gets you excited, you can sign up now to get notified about the development and release!

About IK in general:

Inverse Kinematics (IK) is a mathematical process that solves for the movement of joints in a skeletal animation system to reach a specific end-point. It is a crucial component in game development, especially in character animation and physics simulation.

Character Animation: IK is used in character animation to provide more realistic movement and interactions with the game environment. In character animation, the IK system calculates the movement of the limbs and other joints to make sure they move naturally and realistically. For example, when a character grabs onto a ledge or reaches out to pick up an object, the IK system will calculate the movement of the arm and hand to make sure the character’s grip is secure and the hand is in the correct position.

Physics Simulation: IK can also be used in physics simulation to help characters interact with the environment in a realistic manner. For example, in a platformer game, a character can use IK to calculate the movement of their legs and feet as they walk over obstacles or run along an uneven surface. This helps to provide a more realistic experience for the player and makes the game more enjoyable.

First Person Shooter (FPS) games: IK is used in FPS games to make sure the gun is held and aimed correctly. The IK system will calculate the movement of the arm and hand to make sure the gun is pointing in the right direction, and it will also calculate the movement of the fingers to make sure the player’s grip is secure.

Virtual Reality (VR) games: In VR games, IK can be used to calculate the movement of the player’s hands and arms, which can be especially important in games where the player needs to interact with objects in the virtual environment. The IK system will calculate the movement of the hands and arms to make sure they move in a realistic manner and that the player’s grip on objects is secure.

In conclusion, IK is an important tool in game development that can help provide more realistic and enjoyable experiences for players. Whether it is used for character animation, physics simulation, FPS games, or VR games, IK is a crucial component that helps bring the virtual world to life.

About IKP:
IK Plus is an easy to use, yet advanced modular IK system that allows you to create realistic character movements with very little effort. It enables you to make your characters interact with the environment in more believable ways.
IK Plus has been developed with the end user in mind, featuring organized and readable interface, easy to use script access functions and optional modules which you can add depending on the purpose of your IK.
IKP works with all versions of Unity and is continuously tested and improved to match all the latest features.

The package includes extensive documentation covering all modules and API.
