This is why Nibbler got his name lol.

Started working on Fighting Game Game-Jam prep.

Got the Update on Demand System to the minimum feature level needed for the Jam. It strictly controls the Gameplay FPS & Processing, useful for Fighters (and Rollback Netcode).

More details

Weekend night hang out with the stray kitties on the porch. That's Rocky (Rockman), Junior, and Rocky again.

I'm doing Unreal Engine research on my potato laptop, in the fresh nighttime air.

(A Chromebook jail broken with Linux on it. Runs amazing!)

Would it be interesting if I participated in this Game Jam? "Starting March 31, 2026 and ending May 1 2026, you have one month to make a fighting game." https://itch.io/jam/fighting-game-versus-jam-2026 I would be using Unreal Engine, with a small team of friends.

Going to try and setup for Streaming & Recording on Kubuntu (a kind of Linux).

Wish me luck lol. I've got a lot of audio hardware to get working...

3 years before Pocket Fighter EX I made a sprite of Kazuya in Pocket style. I touched it up just a little bit for this post.

Junior sleeps on me every night now. He's become quite attached.

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

Most didn't realize that part of the colorization specification was maintaining 100% backwards compatibility with the original NeoGeo Pocket 3-Color look via palette swap only. I enforced this by mandating every new sprite to be made *first* in 3-Color.

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.)
