Input remapping is really cool, you can play Porta Nubi even when laying down ⛅️ If you haven’t played for a while, it’s time to give it another try 🧩 The accessibility update is available now! Now I can take a break and WWDC decides what I will do next 👨‍💻

It's Global Accessibility Awareness Day! 🌎 I spent the last 3 months making Porta Nubi on Apple Vision Pro more accessible: 🎮 Full input remapping 🦴 Alternative pinch joint detection 👁️ Full eye-control support Accessibility makes apps better for everyone 🚀 Coming soon!

It’s a wrap! Today I gave my last visionOS lecture this semester 👨‍🏫 This was my first time teaching. So hearing from a student that it was the best course of his entire bachelor’s program due to the hands-on experience truly made my day 🧠🛠️ The perfect way to wrap up an amazing year 🙌

Just came across this review of Porta Nubi, and it’s incredibly helpful for seeing what I can improve in the game! Best part? He stays super calm and positive - very enjoyable to watch 🙏 He also does Vision app reviews in general, so definitely check out his channel! 🔝 youtu.be/cEAs5wjIsdE?...

Excited to teach visionOS back at my university soon! 👨‍🏫 Inspired by @freya.bsky.social's visual Game Dev lessons and @stepinto.vision's byte-sized labs, I’m using Apple Vision Pro to create hands-on mini lectures where students can explore 3D topics through code & visualization. 🧑‍💻🎨

Porta Nubi is currently again featured on the App Store for its night environment 🌙 The reason I added this environment was seeing the relaxing rays of light truly shine in the dark of my living room ✨ This one and 19 other new levels are coming to Porta Nubi tomorrow! 🚀

Porta Nubi is getting more and more reviews, and it’s so rewarding to see I’ve reached my goal of creating a fun spatial experience 🕹️ It’s incredibly motivating to keep building for visionOS 👨‍💻

It's insane how much interaction you get with a single line of code in visionOS 26 🤌

Michael Temper @michaeltemper.bsky.social · 12/06/2025
It's now possible to show entities outside of a volume's scene bounds in visionOS by adjusting the clipping margins. These entities are non-interactive and only work with volumes, but they’re still great for decorative effects. ☁

In visionOS 26 mixed immersion style apps can now coexist in Apple environments. Even reflections and lightings blend perfectly over into the environment ✨

By using Systems and Components I can finally focus on the fun part: Being creative by crafting levels 🔨 I can use Reality Composer Pro as my level editor, put my pieces together like I want and the rest works out of the box 🪄 Spoiler Alert for level solution at the end ⚠️👀

Can you beat all levels using just VoiceOver? Today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day, therefore, all images in Ploppy Pairs are invisible for a few days. Try playing with VoiceOver only and experience the game in a new way itunes.apple.com/app/apple-st...

Today, to hopefully save other developers some time, some bugs / workarounds I found over the last days in visionOS. When using a RealityView inside a LazyHGrid, the window / volume does not get dismissed correctly, leading to memory leaks -> use HStack instead, FB16930710.

Custom hover effects in visionOS keep the UI clean and minimal while seamlessly revealing extra details when needed. A perfect balance of simplicity and functionality! ⚙

Portals are easily one of THE coolest features in visionOS Not only do they give me those sleek, 3D bento-box-style previews of my levels, but they also make it feel like my content is truly stepping into the real world—simply amazing! ✨

Had a great time giving my first visionOS workshop back at my university this week! 👨‍🏫 Students explored the Apple Vision Pro, tried out apps, and took their first steps in visionOS development. I prepared an example where they could try Reality Composer Pro, ECS, and SwiftUI 🧑‍💻
