I'm out here dying of thirst for artistic iOS games. This looks super cool!

Live at the World Economic Forum: SUCK, an AR intervention by @drawing.bsky.social & me. Read more about it here: www.realitystudies.co/p/wef-davos-...

We’re deeply honored that HADES II is in the running for Game of the Year and more at #TheGameAwards tonight, especially since we’re in the company of such an amazing group of wildly different and beautiful games. Congratulations to all our fellow nominees — we salute you!! 🙏👏

Democrats need to lay the groundwork for reform by attacking the villains on the Supreme Court - loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly. And they should start now. paulwaldman.substack.com/p/democrats-...

I've given the Roberts court the benefit of the doubt for too long. This is deeply troubling to say the least.

I haven't watched yet, but oh hey bookmark this talk! www.youtube.com/watch?v=rEKm... The Road Map talk is a once-a-year glimpse into how Unity leadership thinks about the product, and what's coming up!

🔥Unity just announced XR Hands Package 1.7.0 that enables devs to create custom gestures even easier! The steps in Unity: 1️⃣ Connect your headset 2️⃣ Record the gesture on your device 3️⃣ Import the recordings into Unity

We made (a lot) of things! Come check out what we did for Android XR on the Galaxy XR Headset!

Mabel & I hope all our fellow Californians vote YES on Prop. 50! #FightFireWithFire

Selfishly, my favorite thing about the rise of AI is that traffic on the Unity forums that I monitor has noticeably declined. I hope you all are getting good answers to your questions out there!

Unity just released a really nice guide for landing your first role as a junior game programmer: cdn.bfldr.com/s5bc9y64/at/... A commendable effort I definitely thought was worth sharing.

Unity's accessibility team quietly doing great work. Native screen reader support for Windows and Mac just dropped. discussions.unity.com/t/native-des...

It's been a while. Glad to be announcing a new game, and happy that it is something experimental and weird: a tiny, tense, turn-based strategy game about merging units into spectacular combinations, and then watching them evaporate thousands of bugs. store.steampowered.com/app/2396130/...

Announcement! I've been working on Unity support for the new OpenXR Spatial Entities extensions, and today we shipped a public native API in OpenXR Plug-in 1.16.0-pre.1: docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com... This API is a pure C# port of the OpenXR spec, currently limited to spatial entities.

This decision sets our country back decades. Donald Trump is intentionally pushing unconstitutional policies and this Supreme Court is giving him the green light to do so. It must be condemned and Congress must act to stop him. www.npr.org/2025/06/27/n...

This week Khronos released the OpenXR Spatial Entities extensions, a new cross-vendor standard for mixed reality app development. www.khronos.org/blog/openxr-... The implications for AR Foundation are massive, and I'm excited to lead Unity's integration of the new standard.

BREAKING: A voting rights group is suing Montana over a new voter suppression law targeting college students Under HB 413, students must say they’ll stay in the state after graduation in order to register to vote. From: @yuniorarivas.bsky.social www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

My favorite Canadian clothing brand has discontinued shipping to the US altogether :/. The tariffs are a real shame.

Maybe all my mutuals already know of Marc. But in case you don't, you should!

Three weeks ago Hamdan Ballal accepted the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature alongside his Palestinian and Israeli creative team. Today he is detained by the Israeli military after settlers violently attacked him at his home. This is horrible. apnews.com/article/no-o...

PSA for Meta Quest users, please be aware that there is a regression in the v74 PC runtime that causes the environment depth provider (occlusion) to hang forever on Quest Link. This regression affects users of Unity OpenXR: Meta 2.1.0, and we have notified Meta. In the meantime, build to device!

Last plug for the Unity XR GDC talk! Because Unity is sponsoring the talk, anyone with an Expo pass can attend, which is rad! Tuesday 1:20pm schedule.gdconf.com/session/unit...

My favorite part about Meta's blog post: "As of Unity's OpenXR Plugin 1.14, the OpenXR Meta package has achieved feature and performance parity with the Oculus XR plugin," That's my team! :D We've been working on this for a while! developers.meta.com/horizon/blog...

www.erininthemorning.com/p/powerful-s... Rep Howell's speech joins the opening montage from Pixar's Up on my list of 5-minute videos that brought me to tears.

I'm excited to share I'll be giving a talk at #GDC2025 this year with @andybiar.bsky.social on cross-platform Mixed Reality! Going to be a bit more technical, talking about OpenXR, Meta Quest, AndroidXR and Apple Vision Pro More info on @unity.com #GDC stuff here: unity.com/events/gdc

Congrats to the Flow team for their Best Animated Feature win! I believe this is the first animated feature made in Blender to win an Oscar? A great day for free open source software!

The most important thing I read today: www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state...

Unity has asked me to co-present a refreshed "Immersive Experiences" talk at GDC! This is my first time speaking at GDC, any advice? Also if you are in the XR space and attending, let's meet up!

Applications are Open for the 2025 Unity for Humanity grant. This is still one of my favorite things that Unity does. unity.com/humanity

So this is later than expected, but we shipped a pre-release of Unity OpenXR: Meta that includes support for Meta Quest Link: docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com... If you are an AR Foundation dev on Unity 6, huge news! We're finalizing some occlusion work before we ship the final 2.1.0.

Senior Program Manager role is open on the Unity XR team: unity.com/careers/posi...

Excited to share the Unity OpenXR: Android XR package, our in-house AR Foundation implementation for Android XR. If you are developing for Meta Quest with AR Foundation today, you don't need to change any code to use the same features on Android XR. developer.android.com/develop/xr/u...

If you aren't familiar with me, hi! I'm a senior engineer on Unity's XR team, and the technical lead for AR Foundation and its ARCore, ARKit, and Meta Quest implementations. Here's our team's latest info from Unite 2024. (Pardon my nerves in the beginning hehe) www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW27...

Ok I'm officially making the move to BlueSky but also not sure how this works yet or who all is here. XR / GameDev follow suggestions are most welcome!
