🐦⬛I love making games, but there are others who seem to enjoy cancelling them more. So, I’ve decided to take a break and share my knowledge with people who truly care and love what they do.
Welcome to🖤 EmberShade🖤, my independent lighting art creative agency.

I think this is something a lot of programmers struggle with - "I need to know & understand it all, but there isn't enough time" - I know I have. This is great advice.

How to keep up with the state of the art in rendering is a common theme in the DMs I receive. Conferences, books, blog posts all available at a click of a link, we live in a golden age of (graphics) knowledge sharing. This also makes it overwhelming and hard to keep up. 1/4

"Practical Optimization" by @slipster216 is most excellent. Unlike synthetic/toy examples that have been making rounds lately, this has examples from *real actual* products. youtube.com/watch?v=NAVbI1HI…

I'm very late to the party, but what a beautiful game Ghost of Tsushima is! Just gorgeous environments, animations, lighting... I'm really enjoying it.

That early sequence where Jin gallops through the meadow and reaches down to run his hands through the tall grass and the title comes up - goosebumps!

Very much looking forward to Develop, it'll be my first in-person conference in a while (and my first time at Develop).
If you're going to be there and want to meet up, let me know!
23 May 2022
Yes! So excited to be at Develop: Brighton this year! It feels like forever since I've been at an actual conference. HMU if you want to meet with me,
@romero or @keithoconor.
Spoiler alert: my hair is now brown.

If there's one person in the world I trust with the Star Wars IP, it's @GregFoertsch! Really looking forward to this one.

Guess this is where the fun begins. It is the thrill of a lifetime to work on an @EAStarWars game with @Respawn. Learn how you can join our team boards.greenhouse.io/bitreac…

I remember reading up on TTC's voxel cone tracing with great interest - actual shipping realtime GI when nobody was doing it. Great to see the game being revived, congrats @dylancuthbert!

Today I'm reminded yet again how critically important QA are, and not just for testing. Of all the developers in the studio they're the ones who play the game the most, and so can add a ton of value to design reviews, playtest feedback, feature reviews, and more. Go hug your QA!

Am I the only one who feels a sort of mental weight after copying but before pasting, like I'm holding something in an invisible third hand?
