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

Was planning to code tonight but I've been Linux theme Vibe Maxxing instead.

Wallpaper is a shader, so it is sharp and smooth.

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

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

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

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.

The weather was finally suitable to take Kirby outside on the leash for the first time.

Bud was hanging out outside too.

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.

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

It's Sakura's birthday??

I did this one for fun a few years back. #streetfighter #sakura #pixelart #NeoGeoPocket
