Wasn't feeling good today (or yesterday). I guess I really overdid it more than I thought during that game jam month...

Kirby, Nibbler, and Orangey kept me company while resting in bed.

This new stray has gotten friendly. He looks a lot like Nibbler, maybe they're brothers? What should I name him?

I just had an absolute FREAK OUT MELTDOWN because I noticed Kirby was missing a tooth. Turns out dogs lose their baby teeth like humans do, so false alarm 😅

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

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.

Project(s) & Health Update

I'm alive! I have been resting a lot after the brutal game jam crunch... We didn't make the deadline, but the team is very invested and determined, so we'll finish the demo-

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

Strange lights over a farm. Animals going crazy. Something moving in the corn field... You’re a journalist. You came for a story. You’re not leaving with one. Check out the latest trailer for They Are Here: Alien Abduction Horror!

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
