Excited to reveal what I've been up to!
I left Epic to co-found Noodle Cat Games, where we're trying to find a better way to work by weaving trust, creativity, and empathy into everything we do. We think a great culture will lead to great games.

Hardware raymarching a 3D #fractal while racing the beam at 1080p? Sure thing!
A 324 stages pipeline implemented on #fpga with #Silice happily walks along each pixel ray (190 steps), rendering 1920x1080 at 60Hz
No CPU involved. Inspired by #demoscene raymarchers. de10nano board.

Stunt Car Racer Pro was a fantastic looking sequel to Geoff Crammond's 1989 classic. Developed by Simergy and Lost Toys in 2003 for PC, Xbox and PlayStation 2, it was sadly never picked up by any publishers at the time.

This project took me so long to finish that it deserves a real video (coming) but in the mean time please enjoy this potato quality preview of an FPGA based PCI board snooping and displaying writes to the VGA palette from the PCI bus on the fly.

I use a little 7” LCD display I got from Amazon that’s clearly intended to sit on a car dashboard but works very nicely as a debug display and takes basically no space. Just don’t expect optional extras like “viewing angles” or “image quality”.
Give me you favourite FPGA screen. Only requirements are it works with Xilinx Zynq and supports 640x480 by DVI over HDMI. I started working on my GPU again, but I won’t have a computer monitor for months and would like a simple screen I can just connect via HDMI and power somehow

Is this the first ever raytraced game that is not software?
1080p realtime, interactive, fixed float point, 3D vector math, no CPU, no instructions, completely in #FPGA!
@suarezvictor's fantastic work with CflexHDL and PipelineC! #raytracing #graphics
