Belugo
You control a little albino hedgehog and have to take it through this weird tunnel with hitting the minimal amount of obstacles! (better in fullscreen)

This game was originally intended for CozyAutumn 2022, but I quickly went off-road, no more autumn, no more cozy and no more deadline.
I just ended up experimenting with every little thing I got excited with at the time (some procedural generation, AI asset creation).
- Notes
- Slow in the beginning, the binary is 29mb, sorry!
- No real gameplay, it should just be a 3-4min "experience", more of an Ebitengine "tech-demo"?
- Lots of visual glitches and artifacts, because everything is hacked on top of each other, I tried to minimize these as much as I could, but most are still very obvious => wontfix
- Technical details (since it has been more of a technical project than a game to me)
- Tunnel is made with the same technique I used in this game (based on this article). I just procedurally generated an additional "data" texture containing the map tiles information (water, grass, snow, etc..) and customized some of their rendering in the tunnel shader.
- The trees are procedurally generated (poor solution from scratch but okay), not the leaves.
- The owl spritesheets are generated with the help of StableDiffusion, then a Flowframes run to create extra in-between frames.
- The hedgehog is modeled by hand using 3D signed distance fields.

Trippier than alice in wonderland, nights scarier than minecraft, more immersive than falling in VR, heart touching ending. Solid 6/5.
Haha thank youu!
