Working on Sprite After Images supporting more features like Sprite Palettes.

It's kinda beautiful honestly

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!

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

The item animations stay in sync always, no matter where, when, or how many spawn.

(60fps version in replies.)

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

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.

I often wonder what Mega Man Xtreme sprites would look like with a few little touch ups... #megaman #pixelart #megamanx #rockmanx

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

If Time is paused for any Actor that uses my #UnrealEngine5 Time Control system, all of their SFX also automatically pause.

I can put Actors into Time Groups. In this example the Parent Time Source for "Gameplay" is paused, so 'everything' pauses.

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
