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

I got unreasonably mad at combining text in C++ Macros, so I made this lol. I'm honestly surprised it works.

This Linux tool Dev Toolbox is really handy! Has all sorts of convenient converters, encoders, image format changer, colorblind preview, color utiities, etc.

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

Was backing up files off the drive from the PC where Windows 10 wouldn't boot anymore before I wipe it. It said it was gonna take 4 more hours So I started a download for Unreal Engine 5.6 to run in the mean time then I went to take a nap with my buddy.

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

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).

I officially joined the April Fighting Game Game Jam on Itch, hosted by people I know.

I got some of my friends, Pocket Fighter EX crew, and others, together to make a demo!

More details & Updates

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.

Kirby seems to understand what the Vest means now; That he can go outside.
