Wave Function Collapse Algorithm
25th September 2020

I think it was last year that I learned about the Wave Function Collapse algorithm. It is rather new. Only a few years ago it was created.

What it does is create levels from pieces of levels.*snip*

2nd June 2020

I had the idea I would try to avoid pixeling larger pixelart until I got better. But I now attempted to do 32x32px faces.

We generally need to cook things at about 20 degrees above the higher (none-fan) temperature to cook properly.
