In all my time covering #gamedev, I don't think I've ever seen Epic Games so directly pitch for #Unity3d developers to switch to #UnrealEngine! Even if you don't want to switch, it's a heck of a tutorial -- for both engines! gamefromscratch.com/unreal-engin...

How does Substance Designer + Inkscape sound? That's pretty much exactly what Graphite is. A new free, open source, procedural vector graphics application. gamefromscratch.com/graphite-fre... #gamedev #indiedev

Rejoice Godot fans, for #GodotEngine 4.5 Beta is here. This should more or less be what we expect to see in the 4.5 final release... just buggier. We go hands-on with the new features in Godot 4.5. gamefromscratch.com/godot-4-5-be... #gamedev #Indiedev

So, I use a service called Impact to work with some affiliate partners, and as a video gamer/geek, I have to think today's partner notifications are trolling me! DBZ and RE Unite!

Quick question for people... If YouTube videos are in 4K, do you watch them in 4K? It seems most content is 1080p still. It used to be uploading 4K resulted in 1080p getting a higher encoding rate, but that seems to have changed. Is it worth uploading 4K still?

Windows 11 completely ruined the start menu, which I routinely used as a quick search/launch. Is there a 3rd party Windows app that operates similar to Mac's Cmd + Space? I know I can do Win + R, but it doesn't search. I use this as a quick way to launch installed apps.
