This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message : “If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side. By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people. I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.” — For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.

Judero comes out tomorrow. It’s all a bit too exciting for us at the moment. Hope we’ve done enough in these 2.5-3 years to make people believe in our vision. We tried our best to create something that is most human and joyful. Hid a bit of humanity in every corner.

This is effectively the test I was using when developing the custom engine for Bits & Bops. Here is a comparison between what you get by default from Unity and what you can achieve if you write an engine with latency in mind.
also, audio latency in games ;-; • open any game • put your mouse by your headphones/speakers • record audio with your phone • click the mouse loudly • measure the delay from click to sound effect I measured ~80ms in terraria, which is about 5 frames at 60 fps

here's a random gif from years ago when i was programming mesh tiles for ADOFAI they were meant to showcase that the tile 'arms' could self-intersect without visually altering the rendering of the texture inside
