This isn't really my normal content, but I'm going to start posting stuff on shortform video places and I put a lot of work into this first one so I thought I'd post here too. :)

How in the heck did they do this shadow?
The part on the ground seems like it's drawn with sectors but the part on the fence has to be a transparent decal of some sort I guess?
It's honestly really impressive how many tricks this game uses for fake light and shadow.

Never forget that one of the artists on Redneck Rampage was Victor Antonov.
You know, the artist behind Half-life 2 and Dishonored.

Played the first two levels with this mod last night and it makes the experience a lot more fun.
Definitely worth a look if, like me, you love the aesthetics of Redneck Rampage but feel like it needs some fixes and balance adjustments to actually be fun.

I feel like people don't talk enough about how incredibly good these shorts are. My kids have been watching them on loop for several years and they're still hilarious.

It took us a bit, but Iron Lung is finally available on Android devices!
play.google.com/store/apps/d...
The port was done by @ducky-dev.bsky.social
and I, so we can confirm that it plays well and runs well. With a pair of headphones, it's actually a decent way to play the game!

Been playing the Coffee Break mod for Wolfenstein 3D. Although Wolf3D hasn't aged as well as Doom, it's always had a really unique core to its gameplay, being essentially a stealthy tactical arcade shooter that's arguably as akin to Hotline Miami as it is to other boomshoots.

There is not a single thing in my life or career I've integrated the 'AI experience' into willingly, and not a single thing in my life or career that's been improved by having AI unwillingly shoved into it. I don't know why there's a demand for this.

So it turns out this game rules. Idk why I hadn't heard of it before.
I guess people consider it kind of derivative but I don't know of anything else that fills the weird niche of "Oblivion if it were also Fable and God of War"

Testing some new textures in Bugbite. Levels are all grid-based and very quick to build/texture, but the tradeoff is that it's almost impossible to completely eliminate the square tiled look, so I think I'm actually going to lean into it as a part of the artstyle.
