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.

Enhancements to the After Image system are working good. It accepts Palette Sprites now, among all sorts of other features. 🌈 #UnrealEngine #gamedev

Mega Man Xtreme... Enhanced? Made just for fun. Tweaked frames, timing, added color, new frames, etc. Nothing too crazy, but I'm happy with the results! Felt therapeutic to make. #megamanx #pixelart

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

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

When Dr Wily goes HARDSTYLE

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

🔊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.

BIG ANNIVERSARY UPDATE!!

It's been a very difficult year. The paralysis, which I am still recovering from, and the medical bankruptcy that followed. In spite of that progress was made, maybe not as much as I'd like, but look!
