Haxe language creator and @shirogames.com founder Nicolas Cannasse just released Pico GPU.

It's a virtual GPU and could become the perfect introduction environment for shader development.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvCY... Have RG handhelds? Anbernic, Retroid, whatever? Use #GodotEngine? I've finally made and released a video guide to getting Godot games running under Portmaster with only half a headache. And yes, for those Unity refugees, C# support for 4.2 is available.

I could not possibly be filled with more rage after seeing Texas Republicans blame the National Weather Service forecast for the unspeakable tragedy that hit the girls camp.

You were warned this would happen if you fired everyone!

Welcome to the USA of 2025, where condemning genocide is deemed antisemitism and can get you deported, but building concentration camps and calling bankers ‘Shylocks’ doesn’t get condemned by the news media at all.

All the tutorials about testing web exports in Godot are like "You need to install Python and create a local server"

You don't! It's built into the editor.

Once you've set up a web export, click this new icon in the play bar and click Run in Browser.

It's a nice time-saver for jams.

custom particle processor with special emission mesh data.

selects randomized spawn positions on tris, then fetches uv mapped albedo texture texel on the tri, + inherits src tri lighting +bakes it into the particle at spawn time.

makes a neat stylized effect

There was a bit of demand when I'd brought up porting #GodotEngine games to Portmaster for these cheapo Anbernic devices and such. So here's a hackjob of a guide to show how it works until better guide makers with more time come about to replace it.

Democrats unwillingness to stand up for Congress's constitutional right to prevent Trump from unilaterally shutting down social security offices or firing veterans is craven. If we’re afraid of blame, we need to get better at persuasion—not rolling over.
