Amazed from the silence in my feed about Iran. Double standards are strong in some areas of it.

Chrome 144 includes the start of a slow rollout of WebGPU support on Linux! Intel Gen 12+ only for the moment, but expected to expand.

Now that I can compare with the shipped device I can see that the WebXR input profiles asset for the controllers I prepared earlier is offset a bit. I'll get that fixed sometime this week.

There were a few moments of happiness today. The remaining 20 living hostages returned. Some optimism in a crazy reality. Still waiting for the bodies of the dead hostages.

I'll believe once the hostages are back home, but I'm hopeful. youtu.be/vnNKtJVqgWc The remaining hostages and their families will need a long time for healing. Happy that the end of the war seems to be near. Sad for the lost lives and all the suffer.

Call for the annihilation of Jews for 2 years. Ask them to let terrorists kill them, encourage the terrorists to attack Jews and to not release the hostages. youtu.be/KOLKqfLGN2c What a surprise, the war continues and Jews over the world are being attacked.

Shana Tova 🍏🍯 May all the hostages be back at home

Quest Browser 40.2 now has support by default for WebXR Body tracking. Example here: cabanier.github.io/webxr-sample... It works on every Quest headset and will fall back to emulation if hand tracking is disabled.

This is how Worlds Demolisher looked like 9 years ago. worldsdemolisher.totalviz.com It was developed for GearVR and later ported to WebXR

Denied. Well, I guess I'll make a Youtube video or medium article about that.

Ended up suggesting a talk about Unity Web - Debug tools, tips and developing extensions. Hope they'll approve it

Game devs in Israel: Arabs and Jews work together on games, trying to coexist in those awful times. So called "peace" promoting game fests: Racist 💩

Real massacres that happens right now and the traditional west media ignores youtu.be/85P6xQWEFVU

The morning rockets alert. In the bomb shelter.

I'm happy to announce Lumi's next adventure, Dead Watch! This is a murder mystery game where time loops whenever you find a dead body. Wishlist & more info on Dead Watch's steam page: store.steampowered.com/app/3464670/...

Browser 38.2 went out with a couple of new features: WebXR's 'passthroughFulllyObscured' feature lets you disable the passthrough if you cover the entire screen. This saves battery and performance for sessions that only sometimes show passthrough

The world must know what happens to the Druze in Syria www.youtube.com/live/KWGeeNy...

Islamists are massacring the Druze in Syria. The new Syrian government allows the massacre to continue, and stopping the Druze from defending themselves. The world needs to focus on it right now! Around half of the Druze population is in Syria.

I made a recording of starting a google meet

Made lots of progress with Strandedle this week. Added random themes to the planets🌍, and improved the controls🎮 in XR.

Meta Quest added the final piece for PWA - "Add this page to your library"🎉 Now you can add ANY web app and page for quick access from your library🤓 (It's now released for all)

I wonder if a talk related to WebXR Export or the making of it would be interesting. Lot's of aspects - UPM, XR SDK, Unity Web Plugins/Extensions...

Presenting Strandedle🎮 today and tomorrow at the Israeli Games booth in Olamot conf. Had a super fun day🤩

Had some fun last week-end porting Lunakepio (AlexMoulinneuf) 's #Mario Controller to #webXR. github.com/Lunakepio/ma... Uses #ThreeJS #R3F @belabohlender.bsky.social 's new Handle in #XR Should work smoothly on #iPhone in #AR. Not available on #Switch2 🤡

Who better than a squid to understand an alien with tentacles? 🦑 Moduwar joins the Firesquid games! Moduwar is a sci-fi adaptive organic RTS where you control an alien creature. Play the demo and wishlist on Steam: store.steampowered.com/app/923100/M...

Figured out a very hacky solution for transparent background in Unity WebGPU. I guess now I can try and use it for WebXR AR mode?

WebGPU/WebXR integration is ready for developers to start testing in Chrome canary! Available on Windows and Android with a couple of small example pages to get you started. Please give it a try, file bugs, and give us feedback! #WebGPU #WebXR

I'm 38 today. That was a horrible week, with the confirmation of the murder of innocent hostages and the return of their bodies. The ray of hope was today, with the return of 6 hostages back, alive, to their families. There are still more. Bring them all back.

[1/5] PCVR journalists: when covering a headset software/firmware update, run the OpenXR Conformance Test Suite. If it fails, the headset/software/firmware *DOES NOT* support OpenXR and users should expect problems. The CTS is freely available on GitHub.

IWER DevUI v1.1.1 now supports dynamic loading and swapping of pre-captured #MR environments! 🎉 Currently, there are 5 environments—office, meeting room, and various living spaces—with more on the way. Plus, an MR environment capture tool (powered by #WebXR) is coming soon! 🚀

500 days, hostages are being held in terror tunnels, with no contact to any human aid organization. Those who came back tells about tortures, denial of basic health treatment and other atrocities. Bring them home now

I've been going down this side project road of wanting to make a #WGSL shader debugger to integrate into my #WebGPU Inspector tool (chromewebstore.google.com/detail/webgp...). I'm making some progress! The "first triangle" of unpolished, incomplete WGSL debugging! The rest should be easy, right?

I'm thinking about going over the source of our GGJ game, explaining Unity+WebXR+Networking in a Youtube video. Live or pre-recorded?

Our @globalgamejam.bsky.social game is now live at @itch.io Aliens vs Helicopters de-panther.itch.io/airkanoid Aliens stores air in their spaceship using bubble gun. Helicopters stops them by popping the bubbles. Added mobile AR mode (on Android) for those with no headsets. Play in the browser

WIP - @unity.com + WebXR + @coherence.io on Desktop, Android and Quest 3. At @globalgamejam.bsky.social #GlobalGameJam

Made a quick video with tips for WebXR Export in Unity. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UG9i... For those in game jams that have some questions

Happy that 3 of the hostages are back. Sad for those who are still in living hell, in the hands of terrorists. Sad for those who have been murdered by those terrorists. Sad for the broken families. Sad for useful id**** who share terrorists propaganda, thinking they promoting coexistence and peace.

I'll be talking tomorrow about Unity Web at the Israeli Unity Developers meetup bit.ly/4g4hrtM It has been 9 years since I last talked there about this topic, I guess there were some updates🤓

I propose we replace semantic versioning with pride versioning

I'm very happy we announced our #WebGPU support in #Unity 6.1! It's been a long but fun road from the first triangle until now. There's still work to do, but it's really exciting to see the things people are starting to create with it! discussions.unity.com/t/webgpu-sup...

Trying to use @coherence.bsky.social with the WebXR Multiplayer Template. Made some progress thanks to people in their community and discord. Still lots of work to do.

WebXR Body Tracking Sample

VR chopsticks! Always wanted to add these to a game, and now I finally can. I might be a bit biased, but they feel great! Effortless to use. #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev #screenshotsaturday

A new repository with #WebXR support in #Unity VR Multiplayer Template github.com/De-Panther/w... #screenshotsaturday #madewithunity

I guess I'm here as well. #WebXR, #Unity, #WebGL, #XR. Looking for more tech and computer graphics stuff 🔎🗺️
