    I've been experimenting with controlling Ableton with VR gestures. It's amazing how quickly I made a prototype using IWSDK and AbletonOSC. Time to see what's possible with the new …

    I just love how Godot itself is under 100mb. Even as the project grows I hit play and it instantly loads. Compared to Unity hitting flow state in Godot and sustaining it is trivial…

    It’s incredible to see what can be achieved with very few lines of code to produce visuals and sound. It’s often pretty easy to know who the demoscene is made by because of the art…
