TL;DR - Laser Dance is coming to ✨Early Access✨ later this fall!
In the meantime, be sure to wishlist the game on the Quest store ➡️ bit.ly/3W0huQf

I recently finished the @pikuma.com course on making a 2D game engine with C++, SDL, ImGui and Lua! 10/10 highly recommend it.
It was fun to get a deeper understanding on how all the pieces fit together and really explore ECS from an implementation side.
I made a tilemap level editor as a bonus!

When debugging on #visionOS it can be helpful to view the eye gaze cursor sometimes. You can enable it via accessibility settings under Interaction / Pointer Control

fixed a small permissions issue on quest, thanks for the catch @virtualdario.bsky.social!
Have you ever wanted to put "stuff" in Mixed Reality?
I implemented the poisson disc sampling algorithm for AR Planes in #Unity. It's setup to customize how content appears, what content and which surfaces.
It's open source and supports #MetaQuest and #AppleVisionPro

Two goals I have this year for personal development are to try and maintain a commit streak on github and learn Vim motions.
The first one is just about showing up, I have lots of small projects but sometimes getting started is the hardest part.
The second is something fun to learn and practice.
