I did an experiment to get an improvement to sprite rotation quality while maintaining the retro vibe, in Unreal Engine.

I works with any type of 3D transformed object too. And it still respects the scanlines, so it will fit in correctly with CRT filters.

3 years before Pocket Fighter EX I made a sprite of Kazuya in Pocket style. I touched it up just a little bit for this post.

I am now an Unreal Engine developer. Even if Unity Engine walks every word back how could anyone trust them again? Do we continue on where at any moment they can retroactively change the rules? I will not live under that fear. I'm done with them. Deets

Managed to figure out how to apply palettes to low color sprites in #UnrealEngine5. The flashing ones are randomizing their palettes every frame.

Still working on an easy to edit palette data system, but it works!!

More #pixelart for fun, this time Zero! Enhanced his Mega Man XTreme 2 sprites with more colors and tweaks. He has too many damn details and colors 😵‍💫 (This is not being made into a real game.) #megamanx #megaman

Cooking today. Proof of concept to Increment and Decrement ANY UEnum;

ie. ValueA -> ValueB -> ValueC -> ValueD -> (wrap to) ValueA

For UEnum Assets AND CPP defined UEnums, whether you own/control them or not.

LETS GO!! X3 has my favorite armor, so I felt like trying to make it for this "Xtreme Enhanced" 'style'. It was a lot of fun, and I think it came out alright!

(Note: this is not a game project, just #pixelart for fun.) #MegaMan

Light work today on combining a piece of data and a checkbox. Unreal can't do this through C++ templates so I had to manually make a variant for each data type. Made it for several universal Blueprint data types.

🔊ON! Finally got around to making a proper Music system in #UnrealEngine5. Utilizing MetaSounds for seamless and easy to configure loop points. Plus you can preload a track to prevent loading time gaps, and it is async to prevent frame stuttering.

More After Image system enhancements for future project use. Trying out different blending modes, and mimicking a character after image like Mega Man X4's Dash trail. I think the results are pretty neat! #UnrealEngine #gamedev
