Played around with the new Depth of Field and Atmosphere Properties. I think it went great.

It’s a nice atmosphere, but i think it’s a bit overboard with the blue,
It’s like you’ve got your outdoor ambient, fog color, ambient, and color shift all set to light blue.
“Tinting should be like a spice… Tinting the ENTIRE GAME is like dumping two cups of nutmeg into your dish. You’ll kill people.” (Scott, 07:52 - 08:02).
I jest of course, I don’t get to quote Ross’s game design philosophy. so i can whenever the opportunity presents. but still… maybe dial back the blue a tiny bit?

Cycle the same blocks continuously repositioning the “unloaded” blocks like a conveyer belt, or Instance.new() followed by :Destroy()?

There’s a module for re-using parts instead of instantiating new ones, forgot the name of it though.

Your “conveyor” method is known as Object Pooling, in which you have a “pool” of objects that you keep reusing. It’s far faster than reinstancing and super easy to implement. There are many open source modules for this, most notable is PartCache.

However, because the point of this project was to finish an MVP as fast as possible, I did not use this method. The entire game uses less than a single percent in the Script Performance activity and only has about 20 parts at a time, so it was not necessary for an MVP. It will be added in the polish stage later on, of course.

Working on this cool menu UI - game me and @yacti are working on together :eyes:
The game is going to support Desktop, VR and Console. I’m pretty proud of the main menu so far, so here it is:

Yes, Object Pooling and Part Cache are what I was thinking of.

Currently learning advanced Lua, and learning tons of stuff regarding the ROBLOX’s engine and studio features. Currently set my aim towards a big game idea and to work on it after I finish advanced Lua.

f### yeah! proper VR support!

Speaking of, I’ve been working more on blockworks

Better hand physics for one.


Lots of improvements.

For refence, here’s the old behavior:


too much force, and the hands just snap past, ignoring the block

Finished that train, i think it looks great now that it’s done and added.

oh, and uh…
this.
