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.

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

Light work today on combining a piece of data and a checkbox. Unreal can't do this through C++ templates so I had to manually make a variant for each data type. Made it for several universal Blueprint data types.

Kirby has grown up so much since he got here!

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.

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

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

Very exhausted today. Was resting with my bed buddy.

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.

Potato laptop testing for the (unoptimized) prototype. I got this dog water Chromebook with me while we're at the hospital away from home. Side loaded Kubuntu 25, runs on Wine way better than I expected given these specs. 60fps might be possible!
