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.

Here's a fun weekend post. A while back I tried to animate Ryu in his new Street Fighter 6 costume in NeoGeo Pocket Color style. I quite like the result! (This will NOT be featured as a costume in PFEX though, I did it just for fun.)

"Hey Marc, how's rollback netcode coming for Pocket Fighter EX?" ............. At least it's holding 60fps?...

I found unreleased dev footage!

WIP Rugal 98 stage. Rugal was going to be the Arcade boss. Also notice the bubbles spawning during knockdown events! #gamedev #streetfighter #KOF

(This game is cancelled because Unity Engine betrayed all of it's devs.)

Looks like it is Kim Kaphwan's day! Got me thinking about his KOF15 outfit in NeoGeo Pocket Color style... There's a lot of small details so I had to reduce it somewhat to fit

Yesterday was Chun-li's birthday! So here's some animations I've been working on for when it's Chun's turn to get added to Pocket Fighter EX. (plus a bonus SF6 sprite!)

Apparently you can soft-lock Mega Man & Bass

(I didn't save, so I'm cooked for this playthrough.)

You can mark Macro nodes as *Development Only* but they STILL GET CALLED IN SHIPPING?!

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.

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