As release gets closer I'll probably cover all of these, but here's some tech-art topics I can make threads on: -Clouds -Volumetric lighting -Grass -Fur -Water -Terrain tools -Interaction effects (grass motion, water ripples etc) -Fake lighting volumes Any of those tickling your fancy to start? 👀

All of them, but terrain tools and water are extra intriguing.

Definitely fur! So many unique approaches and I'd be curious to hear your thoughts and approach.

Given the importance of the fur for our fluffy beasts you can probably guess that fur was the bane of my existence for a big part of the development haha 😅 Hopefully the info on that will be useful for those who come after

That was the case for FAR: Changing Tides, but for HERDLING it's all custom ✨ but, to be fair, in this case there's not too much emphasis on open waters and waves so we didn't need as many features

I’m always super interested in interaction effects (there are so many different solutions for these, always curious to learn how other games pack & use the data for interactive foliage in particular) and clouds!! But also, all of these 👀
