As of today I am no longer at Riot Games! I genuinely wish the crew there the best and I'm 100% certain they will continue to pop off. I'm now looking for my next adventure! Engine programmer, Brisbane-based with 8 years of remote exp. Low-level UE5 and engine experience.

As an aside, I would love the ability to navigate with vim-style keybinds just to reduce my need for a mouse during my daily tasks, but I also understand how (possibly?) niche of a request that is. Regardless, this is a fantastic program to check out!

A quick shoutout to @vkrajacic on the public beta release of FilePilot! It's an amazingly fast file explorer replacement. I've been using it all day and the latency is absurdly refreshing. This is going to be the easiest purchase of my life.

I can't believe I finally get to say this. SDL3 is officially ABI locked! We will _add_ new things but not _change_ or _remove_ what's there, starting right now. Which means it's safe to start migrating your games to it, starting today! github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/re…

Finally able to say what I've been working on since joining Riot in 2022! I know I'm not going to have many console enjoyers following my account, but I'm keen to have those of you who are play the game! Trust me when I say it feels far more natural than you think.

Until it's confirmed that VAC Live is starting to perform at its expected competency, I'm going to have to play other titles with my limited free time. Makes me sad for sure.

Entirely unplayable in Premier at the 20k mark. VAC Live is being trained, sure, but Valve are sure putting the playerbase through a lot of misery by regressing from csgo as far as competitive integrity goes. I suppose we can only hope something will be done this year.

I'm typically sympathetic toward anticheat developers as I understand the rat-race nature of it. But I still don't understand why @CounterStrike 2 doesn't have server-side authority on recoil rng seeds and weapon fire rates? This prevented many ragehacks in csgo, but Cs2 is 1/2

The image features a promotional poster titled "TO HELL AND BACK" with legendary game developers John Romero and John Carmack. They stand back-to-back, Romero holding a large axe and Carmack clutching a sword, both looking confidently towards the viewer. The background glows with a warm, neon-lit haze, highlighting the duo's partnership that revolutionized the gaming industry with classics like Wolfenstein 3D, DOOM, and Quake. The text announces a live event on December 10, 2023, at 8 PM GMT on Twitch channel THEROMERO, celebrating DOOM's 30th anniversary, with David L. Craddock as moderator. The poster exudes a nostalgic '90s vibe, celebrating the iconic developers' contribution to the first-person shooter genre.

This image displays a CD-ROM of the classic first-person shooter game "Wolfenstein 3D," resting inside a clear jewel case. The disc is prominently labeled with the game's title in a bold, stylized font. Logos for the creators, id Software, and the distributor, Apogee, are also visible. Instructions for Windows 95/98/NT users and DOS users are provided, detailing how to install the game from the CD-ROM. The CD itself has a simple yet iconic design, reflective of the early era of PC gaming. The dark textured surface on which the CD case lies adds a contrast that highlights the vintage appeal of this gaming artifact.

smart way or if there's some other compression shenanigans occurring, but having that much geometry piped and the core rendering loop beginning ingame in just a couple seconds on my gen3 (not gen4) m.2 drive is honestly excellent. Big props! Would love to know if it's custom. 2/2

Played around 7 hours of #TalosPrinciple2 so far and am only a fraction of the way through. I'm a little sad to see Serious Engine gone, but they've absolutely nailed this sequel so far. Excellent work @Croteam , you've done it again!

That game developer motion of spending 2 weeks working on a problem thinking "I'm the dumbest person at this company" just to finally finish the task and swing to "I'm the best". Only to fall back to "how am I this dumb tho" the next day 👌
