Initial simulation of how weeds spread dynamically over the map.

In 2019, I came up with an idea and created a rough prototype related to weeds.

At that time, the server generated images like the one above every second. The weeds followed a lifecycle of sprouting, growing, activating, aging, and dying, all on a per-second basis. Since I was fond of .NET, I started developing the server using it.

I also began to feel more drawn to the appeal of C#.

Additionally, I experimented with drawing the map manually, placing each dot at the pixel level.

Research on a new method of pathfinding algorithm for performance improvement

Recently, after adding wolves, I set the wolves' field of view to be wider than that of rabbits and conducted tests, during which I confirmed that the A* algorithm was not performing well. This is because, in the current Breathing World, it uses coordinates that are subdivided into a

Concept Meeting for Wolf Development with GPT

Suggested Settings for Wolf Behavior Predation Behavior Since rabbits are the primary food source for wolves, a wolf will begin searching for the nearest rabbit once its hunger level reaches a certain threshold. If there aren’t enough rabbits nearby or if hunting attempts fail, the wolf can be set

0:00 /0:10 1× Initially, I developed the map to be draggable. I also added restrictions to prevent it from going beyond the edges. 0:00 /0:20 1× This time, I made adjustments so that it works properly on larger screens as well. 0:00 /0:16 1×
