Worked with Otto for our last game and he was awesome. Now he's giving away this resource and I think it will stop some of us to sign very bad deals, negotiate better or seek help.

Hey everyone. I’ll be honest, I’ve run out of rope on this “being a writer” business, to the point where my site either takes off, now, or I start applying for whatever local shop/cleaning jobs are available. This isn’t a “threat”, just an honest statement of where I am. Sorry.

❌Proper tiling and masking for the UI sprites

✔️Convoluted ass optical illusion using a 3D camera

(Trust me, this is somehow way easier than all the other options I've tried, and more optimized too)
