Astronaut on a Rotating Planet Orbiting a Star - Kobold Engine
2024-02: Astronaut on a Rotating Planet Orbiting a Star - Kobold Engine
One of the goals for my game is to have planets rotating on an axis and orbiting a star. I've got a version of this working, with entities on the planet adhering to its rotation and orbit. Given the camera being locked to a position on a planet, this results in a day/night cycle. I've added increased brightness when the camera is directed towards the system's star. This is part of my iPad Playgrounds project which is growing from a Metal renderer to the beginnings of a game, with models made in Blender
