No Vikings game today, so I built my own stadium in the hallway instead. Walk through the doorway, read the coverage, pick a receiver, throw. It's a cabinet in the AR arcade I'm building solo.

12 cabinets in my AR arcade now. Two of them shipped this week: basketball and football. #screenshotsaturday #gamedev

A promise is a promise. github.com/lucas-martinic/ma… Working in Quest 2 (untested), Quest 3 and Quest 3s at 90 fps. Important: no ROMs, no Nintendo code. The app contains none of the game. You need your own Super Mario 64 (USA) ROM, and a script in the repo builds the game from it on your computer and pushes it to the headset.
Full Mario 64 in Mixed Reality! Running in real 3D (no stereoscopic crap) natively at 90FPS and also running on my desk! 😋 Again, Opus 5.5 + PICO CLI combo made it quite straightforward. Such a bliss to play an oldie at 90 FPS in 3D. Disclaimer: I own an original physical copy of Mario 64. This project is not associated with Nintendo or PICO.

25 shots, 5 racks, last card's the money ball. How many did I hit before that one? Go ahead, guess, you're probably off. Still building out my basketball cabinet for the AR arcade. #gamedev #indiedev

Toybox Soccer for Apple Vision Pro is now available for Free on the App Store! (link below) It was a fun little side quest with my kid, inspired to make this after we played NFL Blitz and NBA Jam on my old N64. Simple fun. Crazy action. Replayable. Check it out and let me know what you think! @Apple #visionos #vr #soccer #football #gamer

I am done with this shit. It is over. The state of engineering right now is horrible. It has been half a month since I started a new role at a big company. Nobody knows anything here. The specs, code, tests, PRDs, tickets, resolution of those tickets, reports, etc., everything is made by Claude Code. Nobody on my team likes this. They are being forced to ship as much as they can. I have heard multiple times from higher management that pushing code is not a bottleneck, so why are we slow? People are working 12 to 13 hours a day just to press enter. Nobody is reading anything. Humans in corporate are doing nothing on their own. Everyone, literally everyone, from an L1 to an L7 engineer here is doing the same thing. Talk to Claude. There is no sense of victory. Nobody is resolving bugs. In reality, nobody is thinking anymore. Everything is done by LLMs. It is so soul-sucking. I would not mind it, to be honest, if we were at least given the time to check out the code and see what is going where. But no, the goal is to just ship. No matter what happens.

Always wanted to play with my physical Pokémon cards in AR, so I unleashed Astra + CLAD on it… they did not disappoint! ⚡️🥽 Basically a fully playable proto with all 151 mons from SV 151. @specs @specsfordevs – at Marina del Rey, CA

The Mac Virtual Display widget in visionOS 27 is the first thing that's made me open my Mac inside the headset without thinking about it. Glance, tap, BAM.

Time to dust off my AVP

Been going back through my notes since 2019, building new cabinets onto the ARCADE floor. Last week I found my note on bowling. 🎳 Built it, deployed it. Here's a couple frames in my hallway. Free on iOS + Android. Bowling goes cosmic nightly, 6p to 12a local.
