A meme with a bunch of drawings of people with Samus Aran arm cannons with the trans flags that says “Repost this is trans people should have Samus Arm Cannons.”

Pretty sure it is, I’ve had some experience field-testing it and can confirm.

Check out Range, my latest exploration of how far we can push a scene using Nanite Voxelization, 200 Trillion Polys Scattered with PCG on a 16k x 16k Resolution Houdini Landscape.

So excited to tackle Act 3 with the battle retry option. Definitely gonna need that 😬

GDC talk submissions are open and just wanted to point out to people that if you were planning to apply to talk at a summit (like indie summit, narrative summit, tools summit, etc.) that there's only one call for submissions now and it's only open for a month: gdconf.com/gdc-call-for...

An LLM does one thing, and one thing only: It emulates human speech based on the examples given. It cannot reason, calculate, think, or understand. It does not "know" anything, and you cannot assume that it's providing a correct answer to anything, since it's not trying to do so.

Materials - Quality of Life Updates in Unreal Engine 5.6 | Knowledge base This document highlights various quality-of-life improvements for Materials as of the 5.6 Unreal Engine release.

Here's a new article I wrote in collaboration with Epic colleague Jason Nadro, highlighting the latest quality-of-life improvements for the Materials system in Unreal Engine 5.6! ✨ dev.epicgames.com/community/le...
Shoutout to the dev team for their great work!

I do the same with the titles of my talks. It's really getting out of control.

At this point I wanna see how far we can push it, y'know? Is there a limit?

Alright y’all, we’re starting the trek to #UnrealFest Bali! I’ve got a couple of cool talks that I can’t wait to share. And maybe this year I don’t lose my voice? No guarantees.

Who all am I gonna see there?

Did you make this to specifically target me?

A goofy, bearded gentleman is bedecked in a matching floral hat and Hawaiian shirt. He’s cheesing for the camera. His neck is adorned by a conference badge. He is backdropped by an audacious convention center carpet pattern.

There’s a lot going on, as ever, but I wanted to take a moment to say I had so much fun at #UnrealFest in Orlando!

Big shout-out to our Events team for putting together another great show. And a massive thanks to everyone who attended, we do this for you and you make it great!

Onwards to Bali!

We've been watching How To Make Everything for a whole decade, and he has yet to become the first solo dev.

If Unreal can switch to Y up, America can switch to the metric system.

If you see me, you better be handing me electrolytes.

Flying straight from my brother’s Bachelor party to #UnrealFest . Pray for me.

Them: Hey, whatcha playing? Is that poker?
Me: You don't want no part of this, Dewey.

Some rules persist across platforms. I will always reskeet this.
