Another cloud test, this time with stronger sunlight and a bit more bloom. Sped up like 20x to make it more visible, the movement is pretty subtle ingame.

Another week, another video! Another techy one about my navigation mesh system - now doesn’t that sound exciting? 😁

I made another video, showing more from my GPU particle system! (Video compression was tough on this one, but what can you do 🤷♂️)

Staggeringly generous and deeply accurate review of SteamWorld Heist II that does justice to the ground-breaking, envelope-pushing triumph of creativity and craft that this game truly is:

A heist game starring robot pirates? Yes, please!
Plus, we clean out the mailbag

I just started using Slang for my C# OpenGL renderer, some hitches but working well overall. I don’t miss GLSL one bit 🥲
The Khronos Group (OpenGL, WebGPU, Vulkan, etc.) just announced a new project:
Slang
Slang is a "new" shader language developed over the last 15 years at NVIDIA. It's the "one shader language to rule them all".
