Galax
A downloadable game for Windows
This is a space sandbox that I've been developing in my free time purely for my love of space.
Seeing as it's in C++ I expect there may be problems with my memory management (nothing catastrophic, just un-optimiside) but from what I've seen, it's pretty stable.
I am unsure how much I will be working on it since it purely for fun. For example when it came to the atmosphere shader I took major inspiration from Sebastian Lague's video on atmospheres. However the rest (ocean shader, planet generation, gravity, etc) I developed. If there is any code (such as the noise sampling in the terrain shader) that I've gotten from other people I have written so in the file(s).
The water normal maps are NOT mine and have been.
While this project does not contain code CREATED by LLM's, I will be transparent that ChatGPT has been used for debugging help and implementation suggestions. However I personally wrote (unless I've forgotten any small function) all the code.
Hopefully you find it cool, there's lots more to add!
