Thought this was a fun weekend project! getting the Index controller to work as a lightgun. now I get to play things like Point Blank and Time Crisis without having to buy something like a Sinden light gun. No force feedback yet, but hey it works! :D

Been getting into audio recording lately and needed a way to wrangle my sounds with UCS tags. So uh... I made one. New audio tagging + sorting thingy just dropped → lit.ruv.wtf/docs/?misc-f... #AudioTools #SoundDesign #FieldRecording #GameDev #IndieDev #UCS #Workflow

Found these 2 cuties while watering the garden today

Getting that first multiplayer session going in your game, starting from the main menu, makes it feel so much more real #gamedev

Just dropped a tiny free VST: MS Matrix. It turns stereo → Left/Center/Right! Extracts a true center channel, keeps your sides wide as hell. Perfect for watching YT/Vids with EqualizerAPO lit.ruv.wtf/docs/?misc-fun/ms-matrix UI’s rough as guts, but it works. 😂 #vstplugin #audiotools #audioplugin

Doom debugging, its like doom scrolling but you just keep trying one thing after another to fix a bug and at some point you should really stop but you can't 😭

Using the metahuman live link webcam to drive the blendshapes in this goblin. Be really good for fast animation iteration 😀 Happy with the results so far, it'll be interesting for the rest of the body. #indiedev #unrealengine #ue5 #gamedev

Trying to animate again for the first time in *months* The Gnawbolt - A rat launching crossbow that causes hit damage + dot from rat nibbles. #gamedev #UnrealEngine #indiedev

Remapping curve names from ARKit to your own blendshapes for live link be like... Lord Help Me. #UE5

Adding jiggle physics/bones, entirely within #UE5. Added extra bones. Weight painted, and then slapped on some SLERP, all without leaving the editor. #gamedev #UnrealEngine #indiedev

'Time Seconds to String' got your knickers in a knot? Try favouriting 'To String' instead! #gamedev #UnrealEngine #UE5 #tips #indiedev

Put up this $100k masterpiece on my door #Art #ModernArt #LowBudgetPicasso @maxvoltar.be

Been beefing up my fork of #PNGTuber + added a ton of new features today. Huge thanks to @kaiakairos.net for the solid foundation. Hacking on this has been a blast. github.com/litruv/PNGTu... #PNGTuber #VTubing #DigitalAvatars

One thing I hadn't yet implemented was checking if the players actually go around the track instead of just crossing the finish line twice... Now I have it so that I can set a percentage of how many of the track blocks you need to cover. I have it set to 90% at the moment. #GameDev

I'm sure everyone has an opinion on wall hiding - how's this? #ue5 #gamedev #shaders

Anyone looking for any audio work? I have some free time for freelance work for the next few months. You can check out my portfolio here. arineaudio.com #indiegames #gameaudio #gamedev

Messing around building a fishing mechanic, loosely inspired by Minecraft’s system, but from a top-down view 🎣 #UnrealEngine #GameDev #Fishing

Weird Plasma feature, shaking the cursor, makes it grow? #linux

It's a lovely time to compile plugins for multiple engine versions now :D just need to set up the right msvc's and paths to your installs, and off you go! lit.ruv.wtf/docs/?unreal... #unrealengine #ue5

Why is drag/drop in Widgets still so clunky? Click handling could be way better, prevent click, and don't even get me started on the lack of tap-drag for accessibility. On the bright side, I've managed to recreate some of Minecraft's functionality for my own inventory! #UnrealEngine #UE5 #GameDev

Trying some #photography with #viture xr glasses. Wanted a bigger display on my camera but ended up being too bulky and came with similar issues

Working on a module for lasers in #UnrealEngine for virtual production as a feature research project. Been fun to make from scratch #UE5 #DMX #stagelighting

But… WHY?! JUST KEEP BEING A FLOAT, PLEASE!! I kinda like these dynamic nodes, but ngl, disabling them is looking real good right now. #UE5 #UnrealEngine #GameDev #WhyAreYouLikeThis

Our #TWD #UEFN game is shaping up nicely. We are currently focused on the atmosphere, walker balance, and economy. The game will feature multiple scenarios within the same map and randomized objectives 🤯

Trying out some long exposure photography, how'd I do? #photography #landscape #boat

The wait is nearly over! 🎉🎉 We’re thrilled to announce that the highly anticipated remaster of Croc Legend of the Gobbos is launching April 2, 2025! 🐊💚 Wishlists are open for PC on @gog.com, with Nintendo, PlayStation, and Xbox digital storefronts following soon. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTbQ...

Should pressing up/down on the D-pad move with the camera’s direction or the world/tileset direction? It’s for a top-down roguelite — mouse handles aiming/attacks, somewhat like Hades. Thoughts? #gamedev #unrealengine

Got a little too into prototyping my #Cyberdeck — built on a @raspberrypi.com 3A+ with a Glorious GMMK #mechanicalkeyboard and a ridiculously ultra-wide screen. Gonna be fun. Case is next… but first, some 3D scanning shenanigans!

Made a D20 roller with a retro CRT style with @threejs.org over the weekend. Fun little project—give it a roll! 🎲✨ codepen.io/litruv/full/... #d20 #dnd #retro #webdev

This is by far the best moderation list I've found, my Discover page is so clean from politics and extra bs, I come here for fun scrolling, not doom scrolling #Bluesky #BlueskyTips bsky.app/profile/temu...

Where's the #unrealengine blueprint art at? #gamedev

I've been using @obsidian.md for my docs, but I wanted an easy way to upload and read them anywhere—without dealing with a full backend. So, I built my own frontend that just needs a place to be hosted. You can even let @cloudflare.social handle that part. lit.ruv.wtf/docs/ github.com/litruv/docs/

Trying out making my own objective markers, things to add include offsets and group visibility, like combat objectives, quests, etc. got things like offscreen arrows going and distance tags, went way too indepth, but it's a good experience so far #unrealengine #ue5 #gamedev

*"It's been 84 years"* Diving back into personal site #webdev! Even integrated my #Bluesky feed—shocking how easy it is with no API tokens needed for public data. So refreshingly simple. lit.ruv.wtf

Whipping up motion trackers for Skullduggery mocap + VRChat—time to see what chaos I can cook up. Powered by a Nokia-style BL-5C battery, so basically indestructible. #GameDev #SlimeVR

Sunset doing pretty sunset things, rare sight for a gamedev to see ;D

screw trying to find sound effects that fit my vision of my game went to the thrift store, spent 20 bucks, and I'm making my fricking own >:[ #gamedev #indiegamedev #sfx

Adding rings to Skullduggery for powerups—think Diablo, but in first person, so you can actually see them! Now brainstorming cool effects and some spicy synergies to bake in. #UnrealEngine #GameDev

What should we call Game Logic AI to avoid confusion with 'AI'?—Drop your extra ideas below! 🧠🎮 #GameDev 1️⃣ NPC 2️⃣ Bots 3️⃣ Game AI 4️⃣ Just use AI 📊 Show results

Whipped up a shader for my sails—no rigging involved! Using a texture map, I can smoothly blend into a furled state. #UnrealEngine #GameDev

What's up fellow #GameDev 's ? *Got the tag, it's automated now*

Praise be to the AI overlords—thy wisdom hath granted me a functional AI today! 🙌 Finally diving deeper into #UnrealEngine AI with Behavior Trees + EQS, and wow, what a ride. Gone are the days of AIMoveTo() simplicity. Loving the learning curve! 🚀 #GameDev

Testing a dynamic crosshair that shows projectiles coming from the weapon's muzzle, not the player's camera. Adds some realism to aiming in my not so realistic game lmao 🎯💥 #GameDev #UnrealEngine

Manny looking mighty suave. #UnrealEngine #3Dprinting

When a #gamedev plays a video game

Working on my sculpting again seeing as I keep getting told I'm a one trick pony #gamedev #zbrush #sculpting #gameart
