been a couple years since I wrote a dumb pathtracer-in-a-shader; felt that itch again and decided to brush off the cobwebs by 'covering'/'blatantly ripping off' noby's brilliant 10yo 4k www.youtube.com/watch?v=9r8p...

do YouTube video essayists know that titling your video in the form "The Adjective Noun of Adjective Nouns" or anything similar immediately signals that it's absolutely not worth watching at all

played at the MTG premodern finnish nationals yesterday with this Replenish deck, 4-2 results for a 10th placement overall :)

tied in points for top-8, not good enough in the tie-breakers to qualify, but very happy with the result anyway!

We made a Nintendo 64 demo for Revision 2025!

📺 youtu.be/v3wYV6gxJII

It has baked lighting with normal mapping, specular shading (at the end), and of course bloom. The beautiful song was made by @prismbeings.com with guitar performed by soundcloud.com/sou_andrade

Some development notes below.

I made an attempt to create this kind of material. Also, this is the first shader I'm posting about on this new Bluesky account! www.shadertoy.com/view/Wfs3RN

I got tired of people relying on other people's code to build demos (or games for that matter) so here's a tutorial in 40 steps and ~400 lines of C++ on how to build a renderer (with music) in DX11:

My father-in-law is a producer. He is insanely gifted. We were listening to Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites together and I asked him what it would cost to make the FM8 growl patch today. I will never forget his answer…

add to this RME TotalMix, Digicheck NG and iLok, then Linux might be a viable consideration for music production
If I can get footage of someone running
-FL Studio 24
-Ableton Live 12 Suite w/ Max4Live
-Adam Szabo Viper
-iZotope Trash2
-Fabfilter full collection
-Kilohearts full collection
-Reason Rack
-simultaneously, for six straight hours, without bugs or crashes
in React or Proton i will switch within 72hr

I wrote about video game shadow techniques on my blog:

📜 30fps.net/pages/videog...

I've always liked different ways to draw shadows in games. I went and tried to find visually distinct examples and explain their differences. I hope you'll find it inspiring!

bluesky image upload backend still needs a lot of work… resizing to max 2000px on the longest edge is barely acceptable, but always recompressing the input to ~500kb JPGs is just terrible. and none of this is even documented anywhere.
