WIP A fully functional pool system with real physics, built with Scene Graph for @SurpriseCityFN Iโ€™ve wanted to add little minigames like this to open-world maps forever because they make the world feel way more alive. Youโ€™ll be able to play 1v1 and 2v2 matches right inside the city #UEFN #FortniteCreative

Full weapon inspection + customization system is coming to the upcoming @SurpriseCityFN map. Swap attachments, change skins, upgrade individual stats, rotate and inspect the weapon in real time. Still WIP, but I'm really happy with where this is going. #UEFN #FortniteCreative

WIP Inspired by the new Lanterns series, I decided to make this shader to reproduce the ring constructs. The goal is to create a material that works on all meshes and, of course, gives it that cool aesthetic
