If you live near Milan, IT make sure you don't miss this unmissable event: cotoletta8bit.carrd.co #gamedev #indiedev #event #game #cotoletta8bit

I've recently been hired for a game developed in #UnrealEngine that has been stopped for a couple of years. Working on such projects is always inspiring as you need to 'get into' the mind of other developers. You always learn something new... #freelancing #indiedev #gamedev

I've started teaching #GameProgramming at #ITSTechTalentFactory Once more, I'm out of my comfort zone... #ue5 #unrealengine #cplusplus

Added tile variants to my #UnrealEngine maze generator based on Wang Tiles; just to have some more variation. #procedural #ue5 #gamedev #cplusplus #gameprogramming

Adding an exclusion list to my Wang Tiles maze generator. #unrealengine #ue5 #procedural #labyrinth

I've created an #UnrealEngine project that serves as a gentle introduction to #BehaviorTrees. It is available on #GitHub: github.com/marcosecchi/... #ai #ue5 #gamedevelopment #gamedev

Prototyping a maze generator using Wang Tiles in #UnrealEngine. #ue5 #gamedev #cplusplus #blueprints #programming #procedural

I'm just checking the #PCG Extended Toolkit plugin for #UnrealEngine and it is just mindblowing. #procedural #ue5 #gamedev

A blast from my past... And the actual proof that I get older everyday... #gamedev #magazine #videogames

So, it seems my students won their first #GlobalGameJam in the category "Best WTF"... Should I be proud or should I ask myself if I am doing something wrong? :D #indie #ggj2025 #teaching #gamedev

When I let my students loose... #newmedia #ue5 #unrealengine #creativetechnologies

"Get Out Of My Dungeon!" is the new #VR game by my student Edoardo. You can download and test it out here: assedeltavolo.itch.io/get-out-of-m... #gamedev #madeinunity #unity #videogame

After so many years, the #GlobalGameJam will be hosted again in #Milan: globalgamejam.org/jam-sites/20... A huge thank you to the @IGDA Milan chapter for organizing the event. #GGJ #Indie #GameJam #gamedev

A much appreciated review by Marcos Romero about my new #ai #book for #unrealengine published by #Packt. x.com/RomeroBluepr...

Whenever you get a 'no' just read these letters, take a deep breath, and keep on going #tolkien #book #thelordoftherings

Professor Tolkien and me... #academic #teaching

I've been asked by #Packt to write a short article about #BehaviorTrees in #UnrealEngine as a companion to my "Artificial Intelligence in Unreal Engine 5". You can read it here: www.packtpub.com/en-it/learni... #gamedev #ai #cplusplus #blueprints #ue5

Some crazy controllers my students have been working on some time ago... #gamedev #gamedesign #unity #prototyping #bareconductive

Sometimes I just need to go #retrogaming with my students... Here's a crazy combination of #GBStudio, #RaspberryPI and #Retropie. #gamedev #retro #gameboy

Some time ago I held a workshop for undergraduate students with puppet master Valerio Saccà. The project involvend #motioncapture, #photogrammetry and digital environments in #unrealengine. Had so much fun with it! #3dscan #realitycapture #manus #ue5 #gamedev

My student Davide presenting his Chronodys project, along with Martina and Alberto, during the #GameNight organized by @igda.org #Milano. #gamedev #ue5 #unrealengine #indie #playtesting

I Just found out that #Diversion is an official sponsor for the #GlobalGameJam. Seems a good time to test this technology out. www.diversion.dev #gamedev #ue5 #unrealengine #versioncontrol

Something I am really proud of... This is a video of the very best project my students created this year. #gamedev #unity #unrealengine #ue5 #game #development vimeo.com/1034238418

When opportunity arises, I love inviting game studios for a playtesting session during my lessons. Students are always happy to try beta versions - and get some rest from my boring lessons! Here's a testing session from the newest game from @runeheads.bsky.social: Journey to the Void #gamedev

Hello! I created a Starter Pack for Italian game developers! Feel free to ask for joining, and make sure to help us spread it around so that we can grow our community here on bsky 💪

Sometimes you just need to take a deep breath, step aside from your job and just relax...

Found on the web... Too funny not to share... #oop #programming #humor #dev

Gameplay trailer of "Get Out Of My Dungeon!" the final project developed by my student Edoardo. I'm really proud of the final result! www.youtube.com/watch?v=z-7S... #unity #vr #gamedev #roguelite #videogame #teaching

A much appreciated review on my newest book by fellow lecturer Giovanni Visai. #ue5 #unrealengine #ai #gamedev #gamedevelopment www.linkedin.com/posts/giovan...

GGJ is about more than making games: it’s about finding your place in the global game dev community. Discover your strengths, build confidence, and make connections that could last a lifetime. 🌟 #GGJ25 #TeamworkDreamwork #GameDev #IndieGames

Amazing breakdown of a recent thesis by my student Davide, along with Martina and Alberto made in #UnrealEngine: www.therookies.co/projects/74981 #ue5 #gamedev #shader

Some hand-painted assets for a videogame that never went through the design phase. I painted them with acrylics over illustrations drawn by the super-talented Francesco Dossena. I learned a lot from this... #gamedev #game #development #gamedesign #indiegame

My new indie digital “label” is on Bluesky. SCPC is a digital playground for game designers who create eccentric, cosmic indie games, especially #ttrpg and adjacent. Follow us for updates on every unique creation that leaps from our box! bsky.app/profile/scpc...

As a game developer, I could not find a single reason not to buy this cutie... #gamedev #moleskine #sketchnotes

Some game concepts from about fifteen years ago... #gamedev #gamedesign #sketchbook

Sketchnotes from a loooong time ago... #gamedesign #gamedev #game

The "real thing"... #ue5 #book #ai #unrealengine #gamedevelopment #gameprogramming #cplusplus #blueprints #gamedev

One of the things I love most in writing a book, is the moment you have to add dedication...

A thesis project by my student Davide (along with Martina and Alberto). I am reaaly proud of the outcome: a fully playable #UnrealEngine rythm game. They even gave me a printed miniature of the main character! #teaching #gamedev #ue5

Well done #igda #milano #event

Pretty nice presentation by Jeremy Choo (Ammobox Studios) on why, in some cases, you should prefer #StateTrees over #BehaviorTrees in #UnrealEngine: dev.epicgames.com/community/le... #gamedev #ue5 #ai #artificialintelligence
