Hey so
Do you have a "Windows 10" machine you didn't upgrade to Windows 11
You should open this page and follow the instructions BEFORE WEDNESDAY. There are no downsides I know of & it means you get security updates for one more year. It may cost $30, or may not.

Been almost half a year now and Blue Prince still looks like this. Kind of crazy that the game's been broken for this long without a fix.

it's been three months and the so-called "blue prince" still doesn't have any sort of colorblind mode. i'm starting to worry that they never actually had any plan for one and just assumed they could add it as an afterthought.

recently i've been working on a rendering prototype. it's a Wolfenstein style fan raycaster (so CPU, no polygons).
it has:
displacement mapped walls
terrain raycaster floors (entirely different tech, but texturally matched with the walls).
(angle constrained) real time shadows

You should listen to Media Club Plus, you're running out of time to say "i've been listening since season 1". If you haven't tried it yet because you don't care about anime, i've seen so many people saying similar things who end up really liking MCP if not also Hunter x Hunter
