[Daniele Bartolini @dbartolini_]

The new LOD system is feature complete. I'll spend the next few days testing it and fixing the remaining blockers, then @crown_engine 0.63 will be ready for launch.

[Daniele Bartolini @dbartolini_]

In the next version of @crown_engine, you'll be able to toggle flags in bulk simply by clicking and dragging over them. A pretty nice productivity boost, and quite satisfying to interact with too!

I updated bx's typeless cross platform SIMD library, and wrote my thoughts on the architecture in blog post:

Mike Acton and DOD finally making it into enterprise, just with everything renamed and attributed to new people.

@bkaradzic @crown_engine Yeah, I suspected something similar... these days you could probably inflate the marketing value to infinity just by saying "Imagine hooking up AI agents on the other end of the pipe".

Preview of collaborative editing in @crown_engine.

Multiple people can work on the same level at the same time over TCP/IP.

I'm curious how valuable this kind of workflow is in real production. Is this something your team would use? Should I invest more in it?

[Daniele Bartolini @dbartolini_]

@crown_engine There are actually two. This one even has a printed edition for €28. That is far too much money, which is why I will probably buy it immediately.

You know your engine is doing numbers when a complete stranger asks a machine to write a book about it. @crown_engine has now reached that stage.

I'm not affiliated with this AI-generated Amazon masterpiece in any way, which only makes it funnier.

[Crown Engine @crown_engine]

Crown is growing up.

We've published Crown's roadmap for the year ahead. It's not just more features, but a stronger engine, better workflows, and the foundations that make real projects possible.

Spent last week refining the character controller, adding browser joypad support, and polishing the @crown_engine physics online demo. Today, I've also added basic character animation!

@vkrajacic Maybe the biggest opportunity in AI is resist to it long enough to see others get crushed by it and then replace them.
