@ludumdare.com 58 jam complete!

Suffered the age old problem of overscoping for 3 days of work, but I really like the core idea I came up with - maybe I'll take it further

Anyway, check it out!

GridMap - the strange caching of the mesh libraries and the odd rotation behaviour forced me to abandon it entirely and write something custom

Great for my learning, less good for time efficiency!

โค๏ธ more and more iโ€™m finding that every element of design informs every other element! adding the right music or sfx can help me decide on the vibe or even whole mechanics

gives me an excuse to play around with weird noises too!

Playtonik Looping Iโ€™ve recently been working on a looper feature for Playtonik, our musical fidget toy. The idea is to capture a section of the inputted notes and to give the user controls to play the loop back at will...

interested in unity, audio and threading issues? of course you are!

i wrote a little blog post about my recent run in with unityโ€™s threading while writing a midi looper for playtonik

check it out!
