#gamedev protip: as a multiplayer game developer, I often have to copy game builds between my main PC and my secondary PC on the same LAN. I used to use Windows Nearby Sharing to transfer the files, but lately I've been using LANDrop. It makes it super easy to copy files over the LAN! landrop.app
Voxel map rendering at 1200+ FPS
The result of mucking around with different ways of rendering voxels with GPU instances in Unity over the weekend: over 1200 FPS at 1920 x 1080 resolution on my 3080 Ti Mobile (see lower left corner)

Fortunately in my game you can join your enemies online 😱
