I’ve added a new feature that lets players tweak the mountain noise layers in real-time. Previously, the terrain was generated using layers of noise with fixed frequency and amplitude.

Now players can adjust these parameters to shape the mountains exactly how they like whether that’s jagged peaks, rolling hills, or something in between.

This gives a lot more expressive freedom while exploring or creating in the game.

It’s a small change under the hood, but it opens up possibilities for player created personalized landscapes to help support an additional layer of player created gameplay challenges.

Some examples:

Trees shouldn’t overlap. Rocks shouldn’t clump unnaturally. Buildings need breathing room. And ideally, all of this should be controllable, performant, and compatible with procedural generation. A few years ago, while working on procedural world generation for my game, I ran into exactly this problem i.…Community17 Dec 2025Turning Real Footage into Game Animations (and Why I Open-Sourced the Tool)One of the challenges I’ve been thinking about a lot while working on Infinicity is animation. I wanted characters that feel hand-animated and expressive but without relying on huge animation budgets or locking myself into a very rigid art style. I also wanted a workflow that lets me iterate quickly i.e. change timing, style, or scale without redoing everything from scratch. That led me down an…Community9 Dec 2025Dev Blog: Tile cachingTile Caching = 159x Faster City Streaming Today I want to share a technical update rather than a visual one but it’s a huge boost for performance. My game uses procedural city tiles. Generating a full city tile costs around 1 millisecond . When the player is flying fast over the world, dozens of tiles may need to be created quickly, and that can become a bottleneck even when each tile is loaded…
