A game by the creators of Danganronpa and Zero Escape called The Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy- is on Steam Next Fest right now. I just finished the demo and it has some fun mysteries. I'll definitely be buying the full version

I started to enjoy KCD2 quite a lot and then got to the Storm quest and it ruined the experience completely

Mass Effect Andromeda can look really good sometimes

Worlds Untold, made up of ex-Bioware people is pausing work, basically shutting down like Humanoid Origin. That only leaves Archetype Entertainment in the AAA Sci-fi space. There's also Yellow Brick Games with Mike Laidlaw, but they are working on Eternal Strands. www.linkedin.com/posts/worlds...

I thought we might even see this at the game awards since it's been quite a few years. I was super excited about this game along with the ones from Archetype Entertainment and Worlds Untold. I hope everyone there can find new jobs quickly

Unreal 5.5 has a LOT of great additions for profiling, performance and optimization. I've compiled a list of the most interesting changes, with some commentary. www.tomlooman.com/unreal-engin... These awesome features and improvements will be included in my Game Optimization Course asap!

Four games I've worked on:

No Best RPG nomination for Dragon Age: The Veilguard???

I've also adapted some code from the ue4-orders-abilities project by Daedelic Entertainment. It's a work in progress as well github.com/cd1232/RTSPl.... I first found it from this fantastic talk by Nick Pruehs www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Dm1...

I made a little minimap builder, taking code from how WorldPartition does it in Unreal. Still a work in progress. github.com/cd1232/Minim... #UE5 #UnrealEngine5
