Highly recommend this video, which is a super deep dive into the techniques used to create a 64kb demoscene-style '90s FPS:

Wow! Very cool. Thank you for the demo and details. Inspired!! This the new Control Rig physics or physics control component? Guessing it doesn't really matter as hopefully they perform the same.

Fun! Have this running from headset or desktop? Been wondering how well a quest headset can handle UE physics.

Been a hot minute since I've been last posting on social media.
So for anybody who's been following me in the past, "Hi again!", and for the newcomers "Hope you like silly and weird little critters, because I got plenty!"

A guide to attributes & fields - blender geometry nodes YouTube video by harry blends

People often ask me "what's the harry blends style?" [well they don't, but if we're trapped in an elevator you better believe I'm gonna tell you] imho this video is the best example of it so far. And I think it's even helped some folks... #b3d #geometrynodes #blender3d

Traditional artists that have adopted tablets to amplify their efforts will be happy to know that tablets are becoming a priority for Blender. #bcon25
