Walls blocking camera is commonly solved by moving the viewpoint closer. However when the wall is moved away, Link's camera doesn't immediately jump to its original position, instead only slowly recovers when there is user input.

came to learn about the beautiful golden spiral stackoverflow.com/questions/96... since I needed a way to sample a sphere's surface uniformly

The thing I hate most about generative 'ai' art is when I see something actually good. I know a real artist did that style very well, and someone else drew her hair in this specific way I love and want to see more. But there is no way to know more about the artists who the 'ai' stole from

I thought of this scene when I was in the shower :D That was a year ago and I had a sweet day job at Epic. Life was slow and I had all the time to think what next. I remember seeing videos of Tiny Glade and [...]

Hi, you may have seen my concept video of the physically correct slime before
