Unity has a number of different joints and other ways to connect Rigidbodies (Spring’s come to mind). We’re going to be exploring how to take advantage of those offerings in order to build a 3D physically simulated rope that we can attach to our grapple gun and eventually swing around space with.

The last time we explored animating our Fractal Shader we had a problem. Our code was not elegant and was very difficult to keep updated.

This weekend for the #asylumjam of 2016 we’re going to be developing a game called Red. Red is a game all about social interactions.

One of the problem’s with games is that unlike real life things don’t happen all the time. They happen in frames.

Let’s make a portal in unity so we can see from one world into another. We are going to accomplish this by using a second camera, render textures and some manipulation of unity layers.

Yesterday we built a way to fly in Virtual Reality using your hands as rockets. Today we’re going to expand on that by making an up close and personal version of Asteroids.

This is a quick, unedited demo of what we got done during the four hour live stream earlier today.

Today we’re going to be developing a Jetpacking game in Virtual Reality. I’ve seen some demo’s of Richie’s Plank Experience but more interesting than the plank for me is the firefighting iron man of the future part.

Let’s return to our flat shader. Today we’re going to be developing a perfect circle. At least, as perfect as we can make it.

Continuing with the perfect circle we were rendering let’s see what happens when we plug in other values! Specifically let’s plug in a sin wave and render that.

Let’s get back to work on our Fractal shaders! Specifically, let’s animate them. I’ve got an idea to use a subscriber based design so we can publish various “changes” to our material and dynamically update it.

Starting with a classic XNA pixel shader which can generate both Mandelbrot and Julia fractals lets convert that into a Unity Surface Shader we can use in our Unity projects.

Last time we built a fractal using recursion in Unity. Let’s expand upon that and do something terrible: we’ll add physics to it!

Lets make some fractals in Unity and take the opportunity to explore messaging in Unity. We’ll make an extensible, component based fractal generator that is capable of generating fractal trees easily.
