It's been a lot of work to make Unreal Engine 5 do various "2D Retro Effects" but there's progress made.

This one is actually manipulating a Paper Tilemap layer in real time, not a solid texture.

The wavy background effect can do both directions, even at the same time. (FPS is low because it's playing in Editor.)

Are you doing unnecessary work when calling Delegates in #UnrealEngine?

I wrote an article about this small topic since I was dealing with it recently (it's free to read!) Includes examples and fancy Macros.

Slide Brake by reversing direction, like many Mega Man games, but also PRESS UP to Slide Brake without changing direction! #gamedev #UnrealEngine5 #MegaMan

I updated the 1-Up sprite to increase visibility in game. The face now shines with the shimmer. #pixelart #gamedev #megaman
