@DennyCloudhead 😯 Just noticed your hiring a tech artist, I'll be jumping on that application later today!

"Graphs are cool and modern! Text is for boring coders!" - continues to perform Undo for a single node movement for ~11 seconds in a simple graph after being for ~6 years in development 🤔
(pls deprecate it all already)

@runevision I think their perspective does have merit if "make as much money/sales as possible" is the goal. And obv that's important but you've made something that is easily one of the best examples of using VR as a new medium instead of just a fully immersive FPS game.

@runevision Eye of the Temple is still my number 1 VR game of all time and im so glad you disregarded it! I recommend it to everyone, all the time 😉

@NemesisTWarlock If you stop dancing you die in real life xD

@juul1a Good question! Some ideas:
-- Recreate a oldschool classic
-- Make something with a new engine
-- Build and polish a single mechanic from one of your favorite games

@NemesisTWarlock @NotSoLittleC @TheMirzaBeig @ompuco @FreyaHolmer @minionsart Omg im blushing to be included in this list 🤭

@Lemondaurora Toe prisons for me but super cute on others if they like that kinda thing...

[Zed Poirier @ZedPoirier]

@KittenCupStudio She subtlety acknowledges your adoration 😹

[Zed Poirier @ZedPoirier]

@KittenCupStudio Well deserved!

[Zed Poirier @ZedPoirier]

Really happy with how the specular dots effect interacts with the base dotted shader!

[Zed Poirier @ZedPoirier]

@afox1984 @pvncher This is brilliant. I need to see it in action!

[Zed Poirier @ZedPoirier]

@Alientrap Very cool! Do you feel like a wizard yet? 😅

[Zed Poirier @ZedPoirier]

@RJdoesVR I loved this one! I got stuck and forgot about it a while ago... I should really give it another shot!

[Zed Poirier @ZedPoirier]

@CliftonB As much as i appreciate the time savings argument i always just preferred stating all the options and then throwing on the last beat...

So by this logic, if I'm playing Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock i should be throwing on beat 6 😁

[Zed Poirier @ZedPoirier]

@DmawDev Ooou I like this! Can the player interact with the items in the panels?? If so it would be super awesome to be able to practice the actions in a "non-canon" version of the world inside the panels
