Potato laptop testing for the (unoptimized) prototype. I got this dog water Chromebook with me while we're at the hospital away from home. Side loaded Kubuntu 25, runs on Wine way better than I expected given these specs. 60fps might be possible!

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.

I am very sad today because Rocky has been missing for 5 days now... He normally comes inside every day and sleeps with us... In the picture: Kirby - Rudy - Rocky

This is Old Boy. He's a grizzled older stray cat. He was reluctant about approaching for a long time. Recently he was limping and we gave him food. We were gentle with him and let him rest inside a few days. He got better and now comes around every day.

I got unreasonably mad at combining text in C++ Macros, so I made this lol. I'm honestly surprised it works.

It got warmer so Kirby and I went out.

Not an April Fool's joke, I got super sick. My wife had been super sick and I caught it, which I should have expected.

Sucks that this happens right at the start of the game jam, but I'll still try my best.

Anyway here's Bud, he came inside on his own!

This is an example of what I was talking about last week when I say that Physics Boxes in modern engines are not good for Character Alignment on Slopes in 2D games. I think Physics Capsules are a great middle ground solution. #gamedev #pixelart

Working on a different feature enabled easy Zoom controls for the Retro Camera system. This will be used for debug mainly, and may not have any in game uses for this project. But it can be used for future projects. #MegaMan #UnrealEngine

Was backing up files off the drive from the PC where Windows 10 wouldn't boot anymore before I wipe it. It said it was gonna take 4 more hours So I started a download for Unreal Engine 5.6 to run in the mean time then I went to take a nap with my buddy.
