I use this extension to capture .gputrace info on macOS 27. This allows me to profile the shaders and compare implementations a lot quicker. E.g. testing font shader optimizations in a quick fashion #gamedev #defold #gpudebug #macos

A great teaser from @jhonnygoransson.bsky.social Global Illumination experiments for Defold with an editor script to bake lightmaps #MadeWithDefold 🧡💙

I think the vacation shenanigans are nearly done. I've done a due diligence of using #Slug or #SweepingScanline and it seems to comeout in favor of the sweep algo. Faster, simpler code, single curve texture. Thx @scuff3drook.bsky.social ! @defold.com #gamedev

Fast, robust, header-only 2D Voronoi diagrams in C

I added a documentation page for my #voronoi library! #gamedev jcash.github.io/voronoi/

I added a Wasm version as well, turned out it has good performance there too. Due to the nature of the native generation, it costs more memory in order to not do Wasm<>JS all the time, but still I think it's ok... #gamedev #javascript #wasm #voronoi #delauney

I feel mildly optimistic that we won't have to watch the "antagonist is the hero" approach from the Last of Us 2 game, in the tv series... The video game is 65% playing the antagonist :( #thelastofus
