knowing how the story has progressed for Satoshi Kon (RIP) and Aronofsky (pro-AI, rich) , this is a very sad thing to reflect on
Satoshi Kon talks about how Requiem for a Dream took from his film Perfect Blue (1997)

I wish the tech industry was more interested in grappling with the METR study about AI coding assistant productivity. Lots of caveats, but AFAIK it's the most rigorous study on whether these tools actually make professionals faster and the results were negative. metr.org/blog/2025-07...

One Hundred and One Dalmatians is a gorgeous film. After 65 years, its design is still fresh.

I wrote a new CRT shader for #BlastEm, hopefully better than my old one. Simple and easy to modify. With scanlines, vignette and chromatic aberration. Perceived luminosity is good. Link gist.github.com/anael-seghez... (GPL code). What do you think @retrodev.com ?

…"Gen AI" is a bullshit engine, in the strict philosophical sense of the term.
All it *ever* does is statistically correlate what you ask it for and how you asked it with the words, phrases, connotations it's been trained on, using the weights and instructions in its programming.

I just realised that scrolling can be used to do temporal reprojection of interlaced lines to reduce the artefacts. Only in 2d space but still 😮!

So it is possible to do 60fps 3d on the sega megadrive by using a very exotic indexing method to simulate 2 colors + alternating lines + fast DMA. Totally interlaced my brain 🙃

Background + sprite animation (the ship is now pre-rendered) and... tunnels ! I think I can add more gameplay elements and stay at 30fps, there is hope, the megadrive is a beast :o

Jumping! I want the driving to feel smooth and arcadey like a Sega Rally. I was never a big fan of Wipeout's physics, but I love the graphics obviously :)

I reworked the camera, improved clipping and rewrote the physics with acceleration and drift, the feel is better now

Side quest in texture land... DMA is on it's knee and interrupts are eating a good chunk of CPU on #SegaMegadrive #SGDK #BlastEm

🍬🎃SUGAR GHOULS IS OUT🎃🍬
I emerge from underground to bring you a new Halloween platformer I've been working on non-stop for the last 2 weeks. It's got pumpkins, it's got goblins, but most importantly, it has GHOST KID.
So grab some candy, a controller, and have fun~

So mayyybe it's possible to render in 4 colors, it takes 20% more cpu but two palettes of 16 colors are then free for sprites and background #SGDK #SegaMegadrive
