Unreal VisionOS Fork | Polyarc Unreal Engine Vision OS Fork alt text

We recently released a game on Apple's Vision Pro and our engineers did some amazing work to make our game run smoothly on VisionOS. They wanted to share the wealth, so they put our fork of Unreal for VisionOS up on github for all to use. Please enjoy!!

More of my prototype character exploration from Polyarc's Glassbreakers. This is concept anim on a proxy mesh.

She felt like a twisted ballerina to me. Wanted to really sell the contrast between timid, graceful and vicious.

Mesh by Chris Alderson of Polyarc. Music by Geoff Harvey.

More of my concept character animation for Glassbreakers at Polyarc. This is the proxy mesh for the male starthing.

He's a gambler with irreverent sensibility. Everything is funny to him.

Gameplay: His attacks start with a C shape, moving to an S shape, ending in reverse C for visual progression.

I've switched gears recently to adding controller support for the game. Not glamorous, and hard to demonstrate through a video, but necessary (especially before I get too far into development).

I became Senior VP at a multi-million dollar company at age 26. My salary was $600k. This was in 2018. How did I do it? Blacked out lines CEO (my dad) promoted me to SVP. There are no gimmicks. There are no shortcuts.

This is blackout poetry to me

Do you have what it takes to stand out among Champions?

The Tournament of Champions registration is closing soon, and with it the chance to compete among fellow Glassbreakers players!

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

One developer’s tool strips AI and other junk from Chrome, Edge, and Firefox A developer released a free tool called “Just the Browser” that disabless AI features, ads, and other unwanted junk in Chrome, Edge, and Firefox.

You love to see it.

Gotta loop it through Jones

A render of a digital 3D sculpture of Porco Rosso. He is facing the left, dressed in his flight gear, holding a cigarette in his right hand near his face.

"I'd rather be a pig than a fascist."

It's so bad and I genuinely love it so much. I think I'm just starved for cyberpunk content.

For your base ship in Farmageddon I wanted to break from the grid-based locomotion you use in battle and instead allow you to freely walk around the environment to interact with things (channeling some Disgaea vibes).

The graphic has key art of Grindstone on the left side. The Grindstone logo also sits on the top of the graphic. On the right side, there is text that says: “75% OFF UNTIL 01/21” with the Steam logo above. The background of the right side has a dark blue gradient.

I use Pyxel Edit, though mostly for sprites that need to be animated. Otherwise I use Photoshop since it has a more robust set of tools and features (and also because I'm more familiar and comfortable with it)

Honestly, not that much. The Godot side is pretty easy. The part that takes longer (at least for me) is making the art in Photoshop and deciding how it's going to be separated

Thanks dude!

A screenshot taken from the Godot editor that shows various assets being placed together to form a home base interior environment scene.

A screenshot of the character Hannibal, giving a thumbs up, from the "A-Team" television show. Text over top the image reads "I love it when a plan comes together", but the word "plan" has been crossed out and the word "scene" has been handwritten above it.

Finally started chopping up the assets for this scene and bringing them into Godot. It'll be nice to have a real looking "home base" to come back to between battles instead of just the placeholder UI I've been using up to this point.

100% agree!

I was just mentioning this game the other day - more specifically how it's an artifact of a magical era in gaming when iPads were new and devs were exploring what games on that platform could look like. There were so many creative, unique games that came out of that time - this being one of them.

The graphic has a screenshot of Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP on the left side. On the right side, there is text that says: “75% OFF UNTIL 01/19” with the Steam logo above. The background of the right side has a dark blue gradient.

Need a little more mystical, musical, mystery in your January? Look no further than Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP on Steam — it’s on sale for 75% off until January 19th! 🌙

I'll def have to check it out. Never played a Dragon Quest before, though - is that going to be an issue? Any games I need to play in preparation for it?

Oh man, those are some juicy barrel breaking effects 😍😍

Also, that camera angle feels super satisfying for some reason.

Was also mentioning that this is my experience whenever I want to take pictures of my 3D prints. Looks fine when I'm looking at it with my naked eye, but then I look at the picture and it's an utter horror show. Every. Damn. Time.
