Got a new asset for testing the shadows and SSGI in my @OpenGL project #Degine. Ended up looking way nicer than I expected, right out-the-box. Still lots of boring stuff to finish to get the #3D engine finished, but graphics are at least where I wanted.

got my linux box working again. had to reinstall ubuntu after the ssd died. got a new environment render in #degine with one of the props from the game.

Just got this new "hologram" 3D kit from China. Looking nice so far, considering using this for the GDC 2026 demo. cybereality.com/cube-c1-revi...

finally got the transparency on the hair working nice on my engine. been tweaking this for months, but seems finished to me. just validating everything i have and not trying to add too many new features at this point, hoping to ship something for end of year.

got the rendering (I hope) fixed on #degine. spent the past month verifying all the #opengl shaders and found a ton of bugs. this should be how the character is supposed to look. need to complete the editor features next so i can actually start working on the game.

Working more on the transparency for the hair (WBOIT) and seems to be at a good place. Feel like the color looks a bit different than before, so may still need some tweaking. #Degine

Hyped to be a part of this BANGER compilation of custom #3D game engines, made from scratch, WITHOUT the use of #Unity #Unreal or #Godot. Take a look at what's *actually* possible for #IndieGameDev with own technology. www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9qK...

somehow fixed this lighting bug with the transparency on my engine, totally by accident, which makes the hair integrate with the scene better. still has a few issues I need to fix, but looks a lot better than previous. #degine

It's finally here! I'm pleased to share GP-Direct 2025, the latest edition of the graphics programming discord showcase! No engine? No problem. We wrote our own! Thank you to all the talented people who participated! youtu.be/e9qK6EtqB-Q?... #indiegamedev #graphicsprogramming

got the graphics showcase for my opengl engine live. it's a submission for the 2025 gp-direct compilation video. hope to have a real-time download out soon.
