I made this using a series of render targets. The chug was so real that the engine consistently and frequently crashed.
So I remade it using materials (shaders) and wow, what an improvement. From literally unusable to buttery smooth.
Lesson learned.

I made two 16-bit battle tracks to add to my collection of retro sea-based fantasy music pack🎮🎵. You can hear them on my YouTube channel. Let me know if I captured the vide of the 1990s and its JRPGs⚔️!

Finally got to show off this project at Tidal Waves last weekend.
Turns out if you can't get an Astro City, you can just print your own. Much assembly required, though.

I made some fresh gothic ambiant tracks for a local PICO-8 game (I live in Ottawa, Canada), Chapel Perilous. I converted the tracks into chiptune sounds to bring them to my YouTube channel. Have a listen! :)

Last night, I finished composing the final track of "Stellar Saga", an album that I'm producing with video game composer and collaborator @hydr0gene.bsky.social. It's a throwback to the Sega Genesis, its JRPGs and their soundtracks. Thanks to @smithygames.bsky.social for the gorgeous album cover!

Any need by #UnrealEngine users for an analog controller plugin?
It converts player input into 360 degree values, normalized values, and square coordinates.
It also gives designers a quick way to change deadzones.
If there's interest I can go thru the effort to make it available (free)
