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.

Cooking today. Proof of concept to Increment and Decrement ANY UEnum;

ie. ValueA -> ValueB -> ValueC -> ValueD -> (wrap to) ValueA

For UEnum Assets AND CPP defined UEnums, whether you own/control them or not.

Working on Sprite After Images supporting more features like Sprite Palettes.

It's kinda beautiful honestly

Mega Man Xtreme... Enhanced? Made just for fun. Tweaked frames, timing, added color, new frames, etc. Nothing too crazy, but I'm happy with the results! Felt therapeutic to make. #megamanx #pixelart

LETS GO!! X3 has my favorite armor, so I felt like trying to make it for this "Xtreme Enhanced" 'style'. It was a lot of fun, and I think it came out alright!

(Note: this is not a game project, just #pixelart for fun.) #MegaMan

More After Image system enhancements for future project use. Trying out different blending modes, and mimicking a character after image like Mega Man X4's Dash trail. I think the results are pretty neat! #UnrealEngine #gamedev

Enhancements to the After Image system are working good. It accepts Palette Sprites now, among all sorts of other features. 🌈 #UnrealEngine #gamedev

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

The wavy background effect can do both directions, even at the same time. (FPS is low because it's playing in Editor.)

I often wonder what Mega Man Xtreme sprites would look like with a few little touch ups... #megaman #pixelart #megamanx #rockmanx
