🔊ON! Finally got around to making a proper Music system in #UnrealEngine5. Utilizing MetaSounds for seamless and easy to configure loop points. Plus you can preload a track to prevent loading time gaps, and it is async to prevent frame stuttering.

The item animations stay in sync always, no matter where, when, or how many spawn.

(60fps version in replies.)

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

It's kinda beautiful honestly

#UnrealEngine

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

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

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.

I'm feeling very bad this week so there may not be many updates on things.

Last week I did boost the efficiency of Mega Man Rulers of Space prototype by like 15%!

Still working on the Simon and Nathan sprite rips. Simon is almost done I think.

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

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

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