Making more progress on 2D Retro-Style ledge behavior for Capsule bodies in Unreal Engine 5. #gamedev #megaman

I had to configure this in Kubuntu 25 options, because some applications like Unreal Editor and Rider were displaying noticeably smaller than they should be.

Despite what it says, it looked slightly blurry before, and not blurry now 🤔 #UnrealEngine #Linux

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

Did you miss out on any of the games we highlighted from Steam Next Fest? They're all listed in the article. Check out their demos before Next Fest ends!

More progress on proper Retro-Style Ledge behavior for Capsule bodies. Why is it important? Capsules offer great slope navigation, but bad Ledge behavior. Proper Ledge behavior is essential for Retro jump precision and consistency. #UnrealEngine

When Dr Wily goes HARDSTYLE

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!

This is a general #UnrealEngine tool, not specifically for the Mega Man project. It can copy the data from ANY Blueprint or C++ UPROPERTY variable, and copy it back to any compatible variable. Could lead to making Save States for Rollback Netcode.

I DEMAND another Mega Man Show!

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.
