Interplanetary Procedural Cities
- I'm working on interplanetary procedurally generated cities while maintaining 30+ FPS in Unreal Engine 5.1. Travel between planets is seamless.
- When completed, this won't be just an open world– it will be an open galaxy.
- Although the galaxy will be explorable, the game is centered around a singular planetary system.
- This is a solo dev game. I plan to upgrade it to UE 5.2 to take advantage of the experimental procedural generation tools.
- I'm using an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 Super. I plan to continue optimizations to maintain and increase the 30+ FPS framerate.

Spacecraft Vertical Takeoff and Automated Landing
- I'm testing the spacecraft vertical take off and automated landing for the spacefighter, spaceshuttle, and capitalship.
- There was a bug where the spacefighter was getting launched into space after I flew the capitalship. I've fixed the bug.
- I got lost and couldn't find the capitalship temporarily on my return trip to the planet.

BBQ Grill Door and Cover Animations
- I've created the BBQ grill animations. Grilling just so happens to be one of my favorite pastimes.
- I'm going to make the grill fully functional so players can grill food in-game.
- I'll consider introducing recipes into the game.
- This open world space opera game is fast turning into a Sims in Space.
