Made my first video today! It was more like a live stream because I kinda go live on YouTube till tomorrow but I did it! Just me coding and working on simple stuff for my UE game. I plan on recording work I do for my frame work tonight as well!! Super excited

I also have a lot of writing planned for the next few months!

Doing a bit of a dive on RAII for C because I don't want to use constructors in my frame work and I found this blog going over some topics I didn't know about in C. Mainly the cleanup attribute that's part of clang and gcc compilers. Its a good read

RAII in C | Low Level Learning

You're debugging a production issue at 2am. Memory usage is climbing steadily, the system's getting slower, and somewhere in a 500-line function there's a malloc without a matching free. You've...

Huh, they're also removing the option to use C++ for gameplay.

Been thinking about live streaming development progress. Feeling caught between sticking to writing or making videos. I feel videos would be more beneficial to get myself out there but people did it before so why can’t I? Just a thought.

I hate this kind of thinking so much... Fuck this normalization of AI code. You don't *have* to use AI for code. It's not "impossible", it's not "we forgot how...", jeez. Some libraries like SDL, stb, Love2D and tools like RenderDoc have strong anti-LLM policies even!

I feel this type of stuff is just common sense. Using AI to help search niche topics, is the best use of AI. It’s just a tool. Using AI to build applications is a waste of time and effort, but we are doing it to our selves.

HOLY: Anthropic's Claude Code engineer Addy Osmani is warning about a brutal AI paradox: the more coding you hand to agents, the more you risk losing the very skills needed to supervise them. He calls it "cognitive surrender." AI-generated code looks pristine, tests pass, and engineers start approving work they no longer understand. Anthropic's own research warns: "supervising Claude requires the very coding skills that may atrophy from AI overuse." Osmani makes a striking observation: "When you're producing more than you can stand behind, you're no longer reviewing. You're hoping."

I'm pretty happy without how textures are generated. I now need a way to keep track of all textures being loaded so I can destroy them when needed, but that will come. Next is sprite rendering, and input.

I have textures rendering within my game frame work now. I did a lot of rewriting that I will go over in a blog post next week, but this is the lovely function that does all of the work. I pass in the Uniforms name in the generate texture to tie them together!

Hey @TimSweeneyEpic, many people have questions and concerns about the future of UE6 with the recent news. Would you be willing to do an interview to help give indies and studios of all sizes some clarity and answers so we can all start planning for the years ahead?

At noon Eastern today my game will finally get its name and a Steam page! One year ago this Saturday I started writing my own game engine. Today, I get to share what I've made (so far) with the world! While we wait, here are some chill vibes from inside the world I'm making.

How use full would it be to add a function to my logger that tracks frames? Just a thought, so give me you're thoughts!!!

This is a much cleaner way to handle things. Is also makes for a cleaner DisplayEvent loop.

Right now the render loop is hard coded. I’m still trying to figure out how to make it user friendly. The goal is to have it more like raylib but one day with Vulkan support lol. We like to reinvent the wheel.

Tonight I reworked my basic render loop. I wanted to pass data in the backend of the renderer to make it a bit more user friendly. So I created a private static that gets it info from a user created struct and just pass those values throughout the backend of the renderer.
