The goal of this first post is to establish a foundation that’s: easy to run, easy to debug, and easy to evolve wit...5d ago·3 min read

This post is about what ha...Feb 8·4 min read
blog.lucasguzzo.devTiny Colony (part 3)In the previous post, I set up the absolute basics of a tiny colony simulation in Rust using Bevy:a grid, some tiles, and a handful of pawns rendered as little circles. Everything compiled. Things moved.And… that was about it. At that point, pawns we...Jan 28·6 min read

A small, fantasy-flavored colony simulation: a few people, a piece of land, some basic production, and the feeling that things slowly start to work on their own. Every time I approached ...Jan 25·3 min read
