Worked on making dynamic npc sprites for #kingdomarchitect and a debug tool for it. Animations are colored in a UV-ish way where each color is a different bodypart. Enables me to color and add items to a runtime spritesheet in an offscreen canvas.

It's seven years since we posted on Twitter about how kids kept coming into the library asking if we had any books about FORTNITE. We didn't back then, and we'd never heard of it so we tried asking what it was.

Visibility is back in! 👀 Discovered tiles are now driven from the game server and synced to players, entities outside the visibility are not shown and discovered tiles that are outside of the visibility is tinted darker.

Got the idea of making an App-like game where you collect heroes and run them through random dungeons with others. Loot from dungeons can be traded. Turn based play-style, a bit like DnD in your pocket. I might want to explore this further, seems fun. Made a quick mockup for #screenshotsaturday

Been playing Star Wars Outlaws recently and really enjoying it. The UI design is fantastic and it really captures the vibes

Excited for more people experiencing Project Hail Mary (there is still time to read the book, it’s great).

Went down a rabbit hole recently updating a UI menu. It was a bit cumbersome so I thought "What if my UI was declarative instead of imperative?". Fast forward, this is what the API-surface now looks like for making UI's for my game. Inspired by react and jetpack compose but I wanted it to be my own.
