Amazing video by @RYStorm about how to document your game in game and why you should do it!

Getting some acceptable performances, 6minutes for 300³ voxels and 16k triangle.
Had to put an end to this project for uni but the end goal is to make each model a single fourier series which can be quickly evaluayed in an SDF renderer.
Everything was coded in C with raylib for rendering

Hi all, I'm currently working on a hobby project currently titled "Prometheus and the Gods" (but will be changed at a later date to reference the duck), where you are tasked by Prometheus, the Titan who stole fire from the gods, to infiltrate in the worlds of the twelve (Greek) Olympian gods and steal their power for the humans (e.g. mastery of the seas from Poseidon). In addition, the player is a duck, which is kind of fun.
The game will mostly be about solving puzzles and going through obstacle courses, rather than real-time combat. The player can interact with "totems" to use the powers of what Wikipedia calls "nature deities": Helios, the all-seeing Sun god, Achelous, the river god of the largest river in Athens I think, and the four Anemoi, the winds (N/S/E/W)
I've got the basic movement down, and I think I have done a decent job at making pixel art for the player, character sprites, and the world. However, I'm not very good at level design at all, and the levels that I have added (tutorial + meeting the four winds) aren't all that fun to play, they all are either a) too easy b) way too difficult or c) just boring/uninteresting.
I am looking for someone who has any skill in level design, and ideally some experience with Godot as well. (two programmers are better than one!) This is a hobby project that won't be making any money though, so this isn't a job or anything, just a bit of fun. No set schedule or anything.

The computer has taken its first steps toward actually playing the game. At the moment, its logic is limited to land units (tanks and infantry). Aviation and naval forces are not fully implemented for the player yet either.
The AI can construct buildings and units (within its budget), move them through friendly territories, and attack weak neighboring zones when an opportunity arises.
For now, I’m postponing further AI improvements and shifting focus to the user interface. The goal is to complete the overall game structure and architecture. This includes the main menu, options menu, save/load system, and a basic sound system.
