14 years ago I attended my 1st Gamescom - a fan, a student.
This year I attended for the 2nd time - a developer, a freelancer, a studio founder.
It was an overwhelming and emotional experience. I am so proud of how far I've come.
Can't wait to see what the next 14 years will bring!

I also reworked the UI to provide better player feedback. For example, initially the scalar factor only affected the focus and changed how large of an impact player input had on the focus. Now I changed it to affect all mechanics, so you can finetune any adjustments to focus, orientation, and zoom!

For this prototyping day I wanted to add camera orientation to the existing focus prototype.
I added a bunch of rocks and hid them in the existing level - it was a lot of fun to figure out spots where they look like smudges until you adjust the focus and them suddenly becoming visible. 🪨👀

After all that setup, I managed to create a plugin that adds a console command to show a UI widget. You can even customize the widget’s position by adding arguments.
Next time: Tackling the actual Input Visualizer! Can’t wait. 🎮👾

Oh, and I’m using Miro to organize my thoughts—turning ideas into tasks and capturing key learnings. Plus, ChatGPT’s been a lifesaver in keeping me from wasting hours rambling or perfecting posts. 😅👌
