NEW INTRODUCTION! After 3 years, some of my interests pivoted and some are just not on fedi.

I'm a one man company that mostly does 2D computer animation but I also do interactive writing and co-creating the first ever video game completely about larp!

This is a big day for Orion's End. I can finally announce that I received funding from Screen Australia to dedicate more of my time to developing the game. It is really exciting.

To celebrate, here's a new trailer showing all new content from the game. The Steam page has also been updated to reflect the current state of progress.

Star Wars: X-Wing Collectors Series with XWVM alpha

Played #XWVM (closed) Alpha with my ViperPit and with #XR glasses. I’m simply in awe that I can replay missions from #XWing (or #TIEFighter) with more modern graphics and modern interface devices again. I spent _so many_ hours playing this as a kid.

This is the heavily cut VOD of the live stream over at live.famkos.net (pick your poison):

I go over the input settings and show it’s capabilities to connected various joystick devices, demo the Proofing Grounds and showcase mission 1+2. In the end I go over various settings for the XWVM engine and how the machine hardly sweats displaying the gorgeous cockpit.

XWVM is not an official product from Lucasfilm Ltd. or Disney. It is not endorsed or authorized by either. It is a fan recreation of the game engine used to play X-Wing and TIE Fighter for the sake of accessibility and requires the original game assets to work.

The game was played with #Viture Pro XR running in Side-By-Side mode thanks to ReShade on a Linux PC.

Kudos to the XWVM team, they are doing a stellar job here.
