I went to a concert a Ungdomshuset in Copenhagen and shot some pictures of the bands as they played. Low Light photography is challenging, but I wrote about some tips and tricks using my own pictures as examples! mads.blog/ungdomshuset... #denmark #ungdomshuset #music #metal #photography #guide

Inspired by @freya.bsky.social 's cat pictures, I took a picture of our family cat Louis. He is an old gentle sir that meows like he smoked a carton of cigs a day for years. He just always sounded like that. He is what most foster homes would *love* to have around to foster orphan kittens. Love him.

This is the kind of thing that gives #unity3d a bad rep. I wanted to jump into Unity and do a prototype of an idea so I used their 3D URP template. I haven't done anything yet and I open up the template to *errors*. That's just sloppy. #gamedev #indie

I gotta be honest the messaging here is not making sense to me kotaku.com/divinity-gen... He starts out by saying: "So first off – there is not going to be any GenAI art in Divinity." Then ends by saying: "...If we use a GenAI model to create in-game assets, then it’ll be trained on data we own."

#gamedev 🎮 #dkgame: Now using Physics instead of Transform and decided to put in a function to switch between ground and flying mode at will. Could be interesting for a racing game. Gives me 2D and 3D movement. #indiedev #makeitexistfirst #racing #scifi #flight #simulation #unity3d #prototype

#gamedev 🎮 #dkgame: Made a little 6DOF controller in #unity3d as a #prototype. It only moves a transform right now, so no physics involved, but the idea is there. I am playing using an actual flight stick controller. I've missed those. #indiedev #makeitexistfirst #racing #scifi #flight #simulation

#dkgame #gamedev 🎮: We got a #voxel engine addon to dig tunnels, but it was only exposed to GDScript. So I wrote a thin GDScript class and then a C# script to run that GDScript. The bridging was easy. Credit to Godot for that. Using Get(), Set() and Call() present in all Nodes. #godot #indiedev

My Unity extension Scene Notes is currently at 50% off! 👉🏻 bit.ly/scenenotes_as It's a tool to place annotations in the scene, including the ability for the team to comment on them. Provides a handy toolbar, filtering, focus mode, a notes browser window, and more. #unity3d #gamedev
A screenshot shows a video game-like landscape with an overlaid note-taking interface. The scene features a body of water, green land, and trees under a cloudy sky. In the upper right corner, a red graphic reads "-50%". A large teal banner across the center displays "Scene Notes" next to a note icon. Smaller white notes, some with text like "Move chest" and "Add fish," and an empty "TODO" note, are scattered across the landscape. A black bar at the bottom of the screen contains various white icons.
