Decided I'd merge my renderer into my engine since they were branched But before hand I decided to do some editor stuff, and I am additionally working on a Gigi like "render graph as a data asset" system... Will keep you guys updated

After quite a bit of work, I am finally done with the first blog post about ocean rendering! You can find it here: rtryan98.github.io/2025/10/04/o... I've also decided to create a video to showcase the ocean simulation in motion: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0OXm...

For the people who are interested, I made a discord server for my game engine! If you wanna come chat, roast my code or just talk programming and showcase your own stuff, feel free to join Link in replies

Renderer is now fully functional on Mac + Metal!

Also yes I’m porting my engine to Mac and Metal3

Metal devs -- has anyone achieved ExecuteIndirect emulation with Metal Shader Converter? I know I can write an MSL kernel to go from indirect commands -> Metal ICB, but for MDI I'm mostly curious how I fetch DrawID in HLSL.

Been playing some Ghost of Tsushima and HOLY FUCK

Just announcing that I am open for contracting for the following year! Looking for a graphics/engine programmer to help you out on your project? Feel free to reach out. My expertise is primarily in graphics programming as well as console platforms. 🧵

Welp, just finished my last day at Ubisoft

Some people think the next step in graphics is work graphs, some others think real-time PT I want the adoption of ResourceDescriptorHeap on every modern platform (PC + Console) by 2026 otherwise I’m reconverting to web development

I need to move to a country where people actually give a shit about living together and building a community rather than being egotistic and individualistic fucktards. Case in point : Parisian cyclists.

I'm probably the only person ever to care about the aesthetics of my GitHub profile It's cutesy af now though ngl heheheheheheh...

I was bored so I made a thing You can now spoof steam playtime using another .exe github.com/AmelieHeinri...

Honestly Odin is a sick ass programming language that I wish I could use more

Also fyi I'm going to GPC in Breda, Netherlands in november :D Come say hi and talk about graphics!

Pros and cons of living in Montpellier Cons: summer feels like living in hell Pros: there’s a TGM3 arcade in the city center

Downloading pre-compiled shaders on PC???? devblogs.microsoft.com/directx/intr...

Got IBL and bloom added in my renderer Oh also I’m 19 today. Yay!

Hey bsky o/ any recommendations on platform independant texture compressors for bc5-bc6-bc7-astc? So no NVTT

Implemented Im3D in my engine and added a sample to showcase how to use it :D

Went on a little sidequest and implemented device generated commands

The idea of "not talking politics" sounds lovely until you realize that your politics are "nobody should starve" and theirs are "have your family exterminated and you thrown in a concentration camp", but you're both agreeing joyfully that Mario Party really does suck.

Nothing makes me more uncomfortable than having to take my gaming laptop, my only computer, in a train to do some work That little guy will blow air like an airplane motor and yet it still can't do RT hard shadows on Sponza @ 1080p under 2ms It is sad to say I have to save up for a Macbook Pro

Losing my mind trying to denoise stochastic RT shadows this shit is HARD

Hey BlueSky! I wrote my first ever blog post in a while, talking about how I built my RHI for my game engine Kaleidoscope. Link is ⬇️

Often, I'm wondering how many amazing work from cool minds we collectively miss because we decided that everyone need to throw all their energy and waking moment tied at work because some people decided we need money to live.

After a few months of Slang usage I switched back to HLSL I appreciate the effort to make something uniform for every API but realistically you will have to do divergence shit for bindless and whatnot Also compiler was a bit unstable in my experience…

Little update on my renderer Seraph. 🧵 I got tiled light culling implemented, so now I'm focusing on shadow techniques. I reimplemented my CSM code and hard RT shadows code, will be experimenting with raytraced soft shadows now.

Playing Death Stranding 2, and aside from the fact it's the best looking game I've ever seen, the whole game has just been: >oh this guy has a hand made of tar. >"hi im tarman" >oh this guy is a doll >"hi im dollman" >oh this girl dances in the rain >"hi im rainy"

Took the time to redo my portfolio. Even added a few languages and made it so that I could write blog posts in the future :) Up at amelieheinrich.com (haven't tested on mobile lol)

I made a Vulkan/D3D12 RHI A 🧵

Rare video game skeet but on god, if OMORI just threw out all the boring RPG sections and just kept the IRL, horror and black space sections it would probably be one of my favorite games of all time. The amount of filler is CRIMINAL and makes it INSUFFERABLE to replay

Pre-rendered background appreciation post

Even though I know it's probably not gonna happen, i'd love to see Australia win Eurovision just because it'd be fucking hilarious to see all the European contestants fly to bloody Melbourne for like 28 hours just to get to ESC

Story writing for game dev is funny because you will have the best idea ever in the history of mankind, but then you write it down and you're like wow... maybe i should become a barista actually

Happy to announce that starting May 19th, I’ll be joining Ubisoft Montpellier as a Graphics Programmer Intern! Can’t wait to join the team and do my best! Visited Montpellier for the past few days and it’s a wonderful city. Excited to see what I’ll be able to achieve there :)

Currently writing a DXR pathtracer, pretty fun so far

snow time

"Bro! Why do you make your own engine?! Bro-bro, just use a pre-made engine, don't reinvent the wheel, bro!"

I don’t know what they got going on at Rivoli in Paris but they sure love their environment maps…

Toyed around with Raylib and C for a university project, it's very nice I have to say Tsoding would be proud since I'm using his favorite library... >.>

Damn, game dev got hands

HOLY SHIT DEATH STRANDING 2 TRAILER

remembered i have free will and took a walk at 3AM in paris

The teenager urge to change profile layouts every other day Sorry to my bluesky followers, don’t get used to any of mybprofile pictures i WILL change it 2 hours later 🤗🤗

Sometimes I forget how lucky I am to have a dad in tech Like I’m actually able to talk about my work to my dad. It’s LIBERATING Anyway dad appreciation post go give love to your dad if he’s there

The year is 2036, Apple has released yet another version of GameController framework that supports Donkey Kong's Gamecube Bongos, meanwhile I still cannot read DualSense input on Windows without implementing the device-specific HID report.

Oh by the way, I made a showcase reel for the school engine, just need to finish up a few things and then it'll be ready to release... youtu.be/xwor8kwcyPM

Implemented CSM and spot light shadows in uni game engine

Sneak peak of how rendering week is going…
