I made a birthday meme for myself today. 🎂

We're getting close to the end of this wave of Astro Bot DLC levels. =/ They've all been great fun so far. This week I got global rank 53 with 26.933 seconds in the new level Hard to Bear. 🐻

I ranked 50th worldwide at the time of completion. 👀

This new Astro Bot level has some very cheeky shortcuts! 👀 I got 38.373 seconds!

I don't think I've ever ranked higher than this in any of these speedrun levels. o: I'm sure it'll go down to 100+ in the next few days, so I'll enjoy this moment while I can. :v

I got a best time of 39.482 seconds in Astro Bot's new level "Thrust or Bust". My worldwide rank was 31 at the time of completion. There's still room for improvement, but at least for now I'm happy with this time.

The first of 5 new weekly Astro Bot levels is now out! Who can beat my best time of 0:31.987? 👀

In addition to gyro aiming, you can also get the controller's orientation as a quaternion. (This has been updated to match Unreal's Left-handed Z-up standard)

Introducing JoyShockLibrary4Unreal!

I've been working on an Unreal plugin that adds native support for PS and Switch controllers, including gyro! It's based on
@jibbsmart.com's JoyShockLibrary, and integrates into Unreal's existing input events.

Got my 30th anniversary DualSense Edge today! 🙌🏻 I'm looking forward to using it to play Ghostrunner 2 in Hard Mode, and also to help test one of my Unreal projects on PC. 👀

I got to meet the cast of Uncharted at London Comic-con today while cosplaying as Nathan Drake! They were super nice to talk to and also had a very entertaining panel yesterday. 😁 Nolan North, Emily Rose and Richard McGonagle are just so funny together! 🙌🏻

You can call me Agent, Ottsel, or Renan (my IRL name, pronounced REE-nan). I'm a level 31 game programmer based in London.

I love gamimg (especially platformers!), anime, learning Japanese, playing piano, animals 🐱🐶, vegan food, art, and puns!

The new #AstroBot speedrun level is super fun! I started with 39 seconds but managed to lower my personal best time to 33.516 seconds. 👀
