Visualization of two point cloud sounds for water streams and foliage, respectively. One technique is to move a regular point audio source to the position inside a volume that’s the closest to the listener. This works fine for convex shapes, and I’ve used… ## [Around the Water Cooler](https://betty699.substack.com/p/around-the-water-cooler-6f7) _2026-06-09 · Betty McArdle · CMAP's FCC Actions Alert Substack_ FCC could issue new EAS requirements, Supreme Court affirms FCC powers, Sen.

The video has lots of elaborate animated visuals, and is more focused on my process of discovering, refining, and evolving the technique, while this post has a bit more implementation details on the final iteration. I suggest watching the video first, but it’s not required. You can… ## [Phacelle - Cheap Directional Noise](https://blog.runevision.com/2026/01/phacelle-cheap-directional-noise.html) _2026-01-22 · Rune Skovbo Johansen · runevision blog_ While working on a novel erosion algorithm last fall (which I'll release at a later time), I developed a directional noise function in the process, which combines various traits of other ones. Since I haven't come across one quite like this, I'll share my findings here. I call it Phacelle Noise, a portmanteau of phase and cell. Update: After discussing with two of the authors of Phasor Noise, I've… ## [I made a hair shader](https://blog.runevision.com/2025/10/i-made-hair-shader.html) _2025-10-23 · Rune Skovbo Johansen · runevision blog_ I've actually been working on a cool erosion technique I'll post about later, but during some downtime, I had an impulse to see if I could make a basic hair shader that doesn't require any specially made meshes or textures. I ended up making three hair shaders. The shapes below are just standard Unity spheres and capsules and only a simple normal map is used; no other textures. The hair strands… ## [Notes on atmospheric perspective and distant mountains](https://blog.runevision.com/2025/06/notes-on-atmospheric-perspective-and.html) _2025-06-29 · Rune Skovbo Johansen · runevision blog_ I don't know if it's because I come from a supremely flat country, or in spite of it, but I love terrain with elevation differences. Seeing cliffs or mountains in the distance fills me with a special kind of calm. The game I'm currently working on, The Big Forest, is full of mountain forests too. I've just returned from three weeks of vacation in Japan, and I had ample opportunities to admire and… ## [Photos from an inspiring trip in Japan](https://blog.runevision.com/2025/06/photos-from-inspiring-trip-in-japan.html) _2025-06-27 · Rune Skovbo Johansen · runevision blog_ I've just returned from three weeks of vacation in Japan. Besides being great as a vacation – which was the only thing my partner and I planned for, really – it happened to also be inspiring for me as a game developer. I like to make games that take place at least partially in beautiful nature, give a sense of mystery and wonder that invites exploration, and that have environments that incorporate… ## [Procedural creature progress 2021 - 2024](https://blog.runevision.com/2025/01/procedural-creature-progress-2021-2024.html) _2025-01-10 · Rune Skovbo Johansen · runevision blog_ For my game The Big Forest I want to have creatures that are both procedurally generated and animated, which, as expected, is quite a research challenge. As mentioned in my 2024 retrospective , I spent the last six months of 2024 working on this – three months on procedural model generation and three months on procedural animation. My work on the creatures actually started earlier though.… ## [2024 retrospective](https://blog.runevision.com/2025/01/2024-retrospective.html) _2025-01-05 · Rune Skovbo Johansen · runevision blog_ Another year went by as an indie game developer and what do I have to show for it? In last year's retrospective I wrote that apart from working on my game The Big Forest in general, I had four concrete goals for 2024: Present my Fractal Dithering technique Release my Layer-Based ProcGen for Infinite Worlds framework as open source Wrap up and release The Cluster as a free experimental game Make… ## [Snapshot Showdown on Google Play (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/phNPoOA9mO90) _2025-01-05 · **Sponsored**_ Available on Google Play for Android devices. ## [Procedural game progression dependency graphs](https://blog.runevision.com/2024/10/procedural-game-progression-dependency.html) _2024-10-02 · Rune Skovbo Johansen · runevision blog_ In 2022 I came up with some new ideas for what kind of game The Big Forest (working title) could be. During the year, I developed a way to procedurally create dependency graphs and also procedurally create fully playable game levels based on the graphs. In the video below you can see the prototype I had near the end. A dependency graph is a concept in mathematics and computer science which has…
