Hey Patrons!

Thank you for your patience. Covid sucked but I'm now feeling a lot better. And it's time to get back to work.

Starting with a new video on 2D camera design! You can watch it on YouTube and on Nebula.

I've got a lot of videos in the works for the coming months - plus a much-needed return to game development. And I'll deliver the bonus video from August later this week.

Thanks for everything, and speak soon.
