Got an implementation of xBRZ upscaling running real-time on every 3D surface and sprite texture. Still just one debug texture on everything, but I like what it is doing! I'm astonished this runs at all on my old laptop, considering how it looks, haha. #Godot #GameDev #PixelArt
Excited to be showing off Dark Pixel in his weekend at #Aikon!!! Stop by, try the latest build, and get some exclusive Aikon Dark Pixel swag!!!
I see @mattwoelk.bsky.social liked this post so I’ll point out the mesh text in Spin to Win His Heart helped me realize 3D text was a good use for the bounding box rig.

I've finally managed to recreate my #UE4 gameboy color shader in #Godot, to match the one I made for Sea Game (as seen here: mattwoelk.ca/blog/seagame). Is it worth a blog update to go over the details? #gamedev
