Fly through of part of a Keeper level directly in the Unreal Engine editor. Part way through I turn on all of the game objects the player doesn't see -- it takes a lot to make games work.
Indeed! :)
Ah bummer! Unfortunately I'm not around this year. :/
Enjoy SF tough and I'm looking forward to your talk when it shows up in the vault!

I had a wonderful conversation with @ronscompvids.bsky.social. Please check it out. bsky.app/profile/rons...
Here are some techniques I discovered through 14 years of shader programming:
Since it was never blessed with the big box release - I MADE ONE! Many thanks to @leepetty.bsky.social, @timoflegend.bsky.social, and @doublefine.com for a fun and funny game and Happy 15th Birthday to "Stacking"!
Stacking's 15 anniversary sharing continues! Today I'm sharing the Game Design Document I wrote for that game, all those years ago, which was part of our pre-production deliverables. You can download the PDF here: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/8jk0e...
I'll be at #GDC2026, talking about #DOOM rendering.
Hit me up if you see me around!

Some early, abandoned concepts for Stacking to celebrate its 15 year anniversary! First is a take on a Natural History Museum where you'd eventually stack into dinosaurs to chase away the misbehaving children. Second is a Baba Yaga house, when I was thinking about having more folklore in the game
'for an estimated 4% of people, this mental imagery is weak or absent. When researchers ask them to imagine something familiar, they might have a concept of what it is, and words and associations might come to mind, but they describe their mind’s eye as dark or even blank.'
Happy 12th birthday, Broken Age Part 1! Look how adorable we all were! youtu.be/ssUFuZyu5bw?...
Happy 12th birthday, Broken Age, Part 1 ! Here's a clip from a very early previz we did while the engine was still being stood up, all done in After Effects using concept art. @doublefine.com
The RAM-price induced GPU shortage has led some folks to switch to alternatives…

Oh wow. It's been 11 years already? Working on Grim was a lot of fun indeed. If you wanna know more check out the mini documentary made by @2playerproductions.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7-6...

Ah ja das wohlbekannte kleine Indie-Spiel Halo. Ich glaube das haben nur zwei oder drei Leute gemacht... in ihrer Freizeit!
BEHOLD, EARLY LIGHTHOUSE VISUALS FROM KEEPER. 😍
Gamedev is so cool and weird and awesome sometimes!
Gotta keep 'em at bay you know!
a fantastic video on the relatively recently described emergent property 'branched flow'. the connection to caustic patterns on a swimming pool was a great connection to something i was familiar with. youtu.be/6aZ45RNHa6U?...

Haha. Indeed. :)
It's a lense... maybe?!
We have multiple Double Fine devs speaking at GDC this year, and if you love locomotion, James Collins is going to talk about about his gameplay programming and his work on KEEPER!
It was great chatting with @aricwilmunder.bsky.social about what it takes to build a game engine! #maniacmansion #lucasarts #scumm

What a fun— and long— conversation!
