I was recently working on a mobile Unity project at home and I wanted to take advantage of Android’s immersive mode, which allows you to hide elements of the OS chrome such as the navigation bar or the status (top) bar. Unity itself has a Screen.fullScreen property that tries to control the appearance of the […]

A week or so ago, I started toying with the idea of creating a tweening solution for Unity. Trying experimental tweening solutions are the kind of thing I find myself always spending time with: in the work I usually do, tweening is something I constantly have to deal with, and I strive to find the […]

In preparation for the next Ludum Dare, I have finished adding all advanced sound synthesis features first introduced by BFXR to usfxr, my own Unity port of the SFXR game audio synthesis engine. The new version is 1.2 and is available as a zip download on the GitHub usfxr repository (the asset store version will be updated […]

Now that usfxr has an in-editor window for audio generation right inside Unity, I’m considering it stable. I’ll probably do a few benchmarks in the future to improve any performance bottlenecks I’m able to identity, and maybe add a few more examples to the repository, but for all intents and purposes it is production-ready. Given […]

After creating an updated version of my latest Ludum Dare game, I decided to use it as an exercise in web publishing of games. To me, the interesting thing about publishing a game on a web portal – even one as simple and rough as one created in a little bit more than 48 hours […]

Once again, a Ludum Dare game compo has ended. This means I spent this past weekend creating a game from scratch, and even though it’s a simple thing, I think this is the first time I can say I created a more well-rounded game experience for Ludum Dare. The result is called Escape Enclosures Expeditiously […]

The 26th edition of the weekend-long competition Ludum Dare is just wrapping up. The theme this time around was “Minimalism”, and as I had decided to create something for the Oculus Rift, I decided to re-create a scene of the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey: the scene where astronaut David Bowman has to rescue Dr. […]

If it’s not obvious by previous posts or some of my posts on Twitter, I’ve been playing with the Unity platform for a while. The idea is to learn enough of it to be able to create a Unity game for Ludum Dare (which, incidentally, will take place again this weekend). My previous Ludum Dare games […]
