Feedback is an invaluable part of learning anything, but it can sometimes be the most stressful component of the creative process. So how do we make it easier for ourselves and for our colleagues?

How does ROLLBACK NETCODE work, why is it so difficult to program, and why is it the gold standard for fighting games? A whirlwind tour of different solutions #pixelart #gamedev #AnimationVERSUS

The setup: you have a video game with couch co-op and want to add online multiplayer. Easy, right...?

Got some very simple water going for in the background 🌊

It's a relatively simple shader:
- Create heightmap by sampling a noise texture twice
- Lerp color depending on height
- Calculate normal using Central Difference
- Use derivatives from CD for foam mask
