This Week in Bevy: ClearCoat, new examples, and game updates

This week there are a bunch of new examples added to the repo, new additions to the StandardMaterial, and more.

Out in the wider ecosystem, we'll see 400,000 entities on a flowfield in the showcases as well as crates for networking, ui, and signals.

On top of that there are game updates from past Bevy jams, card games and more.

experimental tiled integration. Seems like actual Tiled usage would take quite a bit of work to build out though.

Using bevy_ecs_tilemap at the moment. There's some z-indexing that I don't quite have a handle on yet.

8-way sprite exported from blender, using seldom_state and leafwing_input_manager for controls and animation control. idle, running, and dashing are the only animations implemented at the moment.

Just a prototype, but happy with the way it turned out, and I got a little blender scripting in too.

This week in Bevy we've got some project changes relating to contributing, PR review, and the formalization of working groups, new color grading and state-management features, as well as some exciting experiments and demos.

Particularly interesting on the experimental side of things is a new crate and some experimentation with Bevy/Vello integration.

loading indicator -> "Hades" start screen Bevy demo.

I think I've learned what I wanted to from building this "Hades Start Menu" style demo. Doesn't use any Hades assets for copyright reasons, but accomplishes all of the elements in it using bevy_ui.

Still some more to do on it re: timings and such but happy with the couple custom shaders I wrote and having exported 3d animations as sprites from blender, etc for this.

If you like these images, you may like this random repo I uploaded today. At the moment, its just a demo that I pulled out of some other code at this point. 3d pixelated camera with a stylized toon shader.

This Week in Bevy is very exciting this week. A tool for HDRis, Nannou's progress on their Bevy backend, Ludum Dare entries, and Bevy running on an ESP32!

On stream today we worked on new game essentials for Asteroids and implemented Levels on top. Destroying all asteroids now completes a level, spawning a new set of meteors equivalent to the current level (level 2->3 in this clip).

Switched from CollidingEntities to CollisionEnded event, which allows more balls to play more stably with less tunneling.

Took an hour or so to build out an "Infinite Pong" example. While it could be built from-scratch, I thought a really interesting angle was to explore bevy_ecs_tilemap's tile-per-entity model and adding colliders to that model.

quick q: do you sometimes say to someone "I've been there, it gets better" but then IMMEDIATELY feel the urge to say "I'm sure I'm years behind you on other things!" b/c the other remark made you sound superior / sounded like you were judging them?
