Any need by #UnrealEngine users for an analog controller plugin?

It converts player input into 360 degree values, normalized values, and square coordinates.
It also gives designers a quick way to change deadzones.

If there's interest I can go thru the effort to make it available (free)

I've been noodling away at a turn-based tower defense deckbuilder prototype. Each battle, you play cards to build your tower or directly attack the battlefield. Then there's a round of auto-battling as your tower goes to work and the enemies take their actions.

the time has come to draw proper player character portraits.. some need more polish than others, but it feels great to add them to the game. the ui feels complete with them in there. they feel right

In my game, you play as a 🐦birb. You've got a wacky beak that can be used like a springboard to launch around levels.

Not persuaded yet? There's also an 🐘elephant with a wacky trunk that can grab things.

Still not convinced? How about 75% off?

Trying out some low poly modelling with low resolution texturing. My first experience in Blockbench. Even if it is missing functionality that Blender has, I found it more fun. I think the limitations help with establishing a style!

We first released Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, on Gear VR, over 10(!!) years ago 😳

The big launch was on PC/Rift, which will turn 10 early next month. Should probably get a cake or something.

I've been working on custom client authoritative movement AND abilities. The client pawn is using two abilities; a jump and then a "pounce". Net simulation is "bad" (100-200 ping with 5% loss).

The client appears smooth on the server and gives a great experience for the player.
