Hey lovely person! 💘

Hope you're having a fine day! Summer slowly fades into fall. Let's get the tea cups warmed up, soon it will be cozy-time again.

Our game got an update! 😊
Your piggy-siblings can now wear flower-hats! 🌷🌺🌻🌼

Also: play hide & seek, more interactions between siblings and explore the cabin of the forest guardian. Might there be a secret hidden inside? Nobody can tell, but yes.

If you buy the game (thanks!) please leave a review (thanky-thanks!).

Nemi from my discord has released the demo to Pulse Drive! Whoop Whoop! Get your fingers ready to roll with the beat!

Cool VFX for UI of a spell book prototype.

Beautiful and interactive water. Also, pay attention to the dynamic water hose physics!

Cool collection of (animated) concept art for VFX covering smoke, fire, explosion and projectiles

8th Floating Bit has shared their latest work on my discord. Lovely use of noise, fresnel and the distorted target-dummy gives it an extra nice vibe!

Breakdown showing insights into textures, simulation, logic and materials used for this super cool effect.

Nice (short) video about render performance improvements for the voxel based Enshrouded game. By the way, if you understand German, you may be interested in my Podcast episode about Enshrouded and Custom Engines.

Thanks for mentioning it on my discord @somethinglikegames ! :)

We all saw rain ripple shaders, but this one makes them overlap. Whoop whoop!

A great list summarizing all the LinkedIn posts from Wojciech. I especially like the UE Profiling topics like Unreal Engine 5: Reliable GPU Profiling of a Packaged Project.

Many useful Unreal material functions to use or study.

What a trip into "good old times" when games had beautiful boxes. Now you can look at them in your browser!

Impressive 3D City made with Raycasting, HTML/JS, ... 

Thanks for reading! Have a lovely day/night! 💘
