I've been recovering from some surgery for most of the last month but I should be more active again going forward. Tonight I did a quick update of the arcade world's highscores and made a little page to display them that loads from the same source.

Version 1.2.1 of Crystal Defenders is out now! It includes a bunch of fixes folks have asked for as well as some tweaks to the experience on phones, and it updates us to Unity 2022!
In other news, I'll be out of commission for at least a month starting in the middle of this week, recovering from some medical stuff. I can maybe fix anything that's gone wrong by the end of monday, so let m...
I've pushed a new update to the arcade featuring:
- global highscores! They are pulled live from the web, and can be submitted in my discord. (In the future I'll look into a better submission process)
- a rebuilt and much upgraded Face Invaders with coop play

I had this in drafts for weeks, but now I finally have time to get some of this stuff done! If you are a creator and have been wanting the crisp and smooth pixelart shader tech I use in my worlds, take a look. Its 0+ dollars so feel free to grab it and use it on an avatar or world or whatever. Just keep the licenses in there and we're Gucchi.

She is recovering well, but I'll likely continue to have a hard time finding opportunities for dev work for a little longer. Hopefully I can still find time to do some bug fixes or get some of the prefab stuff I wanted to done, but we'll see. Wish her luck! 2023-07-24 18:41:43 +0000 UTC View Post
Its the first "behind the scenes content" for y'all. Yay!
The latest update to Crystal Defenders has a bunch of quality of life improvements, but the one that was the most effort is a nice little perf bump just from me reorganizing basically every object in the scene and adopting this tool (2023-07-10 06:51:01 +0000 UTC

Its now been about half a month since Crystal Defenders was released on VRChat. We topped out at 400+ people in-world and there's been 100-200 people there pretty consistently since!
I'm very happy with how much love its been getting, and thankful to my new patrons. We even got featured by some japanese youtubers! 2023-07-07 00:26:35 +0000 UTC

I continue to plug away at two main projects, updating the arcade to Udon 1.x and fixing the bugs it presents, and getting Crystal Defenders over the finish line. In the past month or so I've made a lot of progress on both.
Crystal Defenders Progress:
- LOTS of optimization: We now run at a higher FPS than the default homeworld on quest and 40+ fps even with capped towers and late-gam...
So, I created a patreon. I'll be trying to keep it up-to-date and make it the place to go for details of what I've been working on. I'm new to having one of these, so your feedback is most certainly a gift. Let me know what kind of rewards you want to see! I have a lot of ideas but am still testing the waters.
As for what I've been working on, I've been plugging away getting my ... 2023-04-21 09:28:18 +0000 UTC View Post
