Translucency was difficult to implement within our low-spec requirements, and I'm very glad we got it done! The normal way, to prevent alpha stacking, of rendering to an offscreen buffer, wouldn't work with our really small memory requirements. We do a depth-only pre-pass, which works well!

I know him -- we talked about our favorite taco trucks at a party a year or so ago. He was a normal, normal man. He wasn't some monster, he was just a student. I can't believe this -- he should be free immediately

academia is also teaching, not just research. to that end, as a "partner" (which is a framing I don't really agree with) academia needs to churn out students capable of analyzing games too. basically we need them to make asses who are like "you didn't real GET Firewatch's ending, huh?"
