I rarely have time to make a nice options screen during game jams, not to mention accessibility features. But for NaNoRenO 2020, I worked on them more than usual. In this post, I’ll explain how I customized the Preferences and Accessibility panel of Sidetracked! in Ren’Py. Preferences In this game,…

Quite often, gameplay programmers need to hand over the task of creating scripted events to level designers. In Unreal, a common workflow is to define shared features in C++ and level-specific behaviors with Blueprints.
While it is possible to implement C++ Actor methods via Blueprints using either BlueprintImplementableEvent or BlueprintNativeEvent, in this post, I’ll talk about dynamic multicast delegates.
For all my Unreal projects, I insert a small header containing debugging utility, especially for printing on screen.

I prototyped an elevator for a cooperative platform game I am working on with Unity. I made two prefabs: one for the elevator and one for the switch that controls it.
