Welp, done with the Global Game Jam for this year! Made a little game with @kraklegrand.bsky.social called "Tango Theater", a "space channel 5" inspired minigame where you gotta copy your partners's dance moves (but be wary, they can make mistakes!) globalgamejam.org/games/2026/t... #GGJ2026

Why I still teach OpenGL ES 3.0 in 2026 14 years old. Still one of the most portable graphics APIs. Same C++ and GLSL runs on Windows, Linux, Android, Switch, and the web (via WebGL2). Wrote about what we teach, what we're missing, and student work. eliasfarhan.ch/jekyll/updat...

This year I ran 42km, climbed from Sierre to Zinal, won two awards for Beach Slap, and learned that being productive doesn't mean working every waking hour, but also enjoying life and others (like at @spelkollektivet.com, love you all). Full 2025 wrap-up on my blog: eliasfarhan.ch/jekyll/updat...

Let’s wrap up 2024. A lot of things happened this year for me and I wanted to share them: Earlier this year, I organized the RGB Games Programming Conference - Green Edition. I finally edited the video of the talks here: bsky.app/profile/krak...
