Figuring out UI in Unreal is basically this over and over until it looks good

watch bernie talk about how he had the same problems 40 years ago, and how he fought them. community. basic needs. joy.
Before he was a Senator, a candidate for President, and our greatest champion in the fight against oligarchy, Bernie Sanders was the four-term Mayor of Burlington, VT.
I sat down with Bernie in Astoria to talk about the lessons he learned—and the work ahead.

Another look at my security Kiosk project another goal at the time was to to show off a space with different moods by playing with lighting that was very new to me at the time. Still not grate with lights but was worth the attempt

Did I ever tell y'all I made an Intro to 3D Modeling course composed entirely of text and images in Google Slides? It's pretty basic, but idk the prof I made it for liked it
So if you wanna learn Blender from a kinda-sorta-professional artist, check it out!

I teach a game writing class. Students have scripts, worldbuilding docs, treatments, etc due every week
About half the class used ChatGPT last semester even though I made it clear using an LLM = an F. When I asked why a studio would ever hire them if their work was just ChatGPT, they seemed stunned

This past semester was the most stressful of my academic career. I had 180 students and about half cheated at some point in the semester
They submit weekly reflections where the questions are opinion-based, graded only on effort, don't care about grammar
SO MANY students submitted ChatGPT essays

i’ve said this many times & people are so quick to defend Steam it spins my mind
one of the world’s wealthiest companies taking 30% of all revenue from every struggling indie dev as a flat fee.. & taking LESS revshare from AAA games
spare me their sob story & stop allying with unchecked capitalism

Valve could easily lower their 30% revenue cut for small games and it wouldn't cost them much (Apple and Google do 15%) but Steam doesn't have any strong competition and devs want to be on Steam either way. IMO if indies got slightly more money, there would also be more viable games to compete with.

Quick tech art breakdown:-
- The base sea is a big polygon that's animated up/down in Y intersecting the land.
- The wake is layered texture strips + an animated shader. They use blendshapes to hug the land as the tide moves in/out.
- The sea sparkle/seaweed are offset from the base sea motion.
