Still alive and devvin'

Will be posting here again- trying to consolidate all my social media

Voxel level editor, jobs/burst for CPU mesh mode, and a GPU mode with drawindirect and all meshing done in compute shaders. Both look the same. Just different runtime speeds! #gamedev #unity

Recursion Deluxe 1.2 will bring not only bug fixes and new content, but also a little extra polish on what's currently there.

Here's a sneak preview at some of the new particles we've added to spruce things up a bit!

Here's something I've been wondering about.

I've heard sentiments that some players will get upset if you add more achievements to your game post-launch.

Has anyone had any experience with this?
Let me know your thoughts!

I've been slacking to post my recent work to bluesky. I slapped this together today after reading a reddit thread about failing an interview for not being able to find prime numbers.

Just released my unity urp vertex lighting system for FREE :3

Its inspired by the per vertex lighting that #silenthill 1 used, and is meant to be used to make older looking games

Why Gran Turismo PSP Looks So Good Although many people debate the exclusion of "career mode" inย Gran Turismo PSP, it's generally considered one of the best-looking games on the portable console to date. When you look at some of the st...

Today I was explaining how Gran Turismo on the PSP made use of the console's poor display refresh rate to create a sort of "hardware antialiasing", and I found this great article that shows the (approximated) effect in action :D

Since @unity.com Starter Pack is full, I decided to create a new one as I think that there're more than 150 Unity devs on bsky.

If u're interested, pls post โฌ‡๏ธ. (And Yes, there will be another list if this is full! No FOMO!)

What is up my fellow #gamedev people? I've noticed an uptick in engagement here on bluesky!

Seems a lot more active than gamedev mastodon! And we all know twitter is a corpse!

Anyway, here's a GIF from my current #multiplayer thingy with happy balls.
