I was going to post this last night, but twitter hates me.
The NovelRT Vulkan support is basically done at this point, I just need to add a few more ECS APIs and fix a minor issue or two.
Enjoy 1000 Novel-chans spinning. All ECS driven! Very hype! 🎉

✨ GAME JAM! ✨
Myself, @RubyNovaDev and @RB6K have been running a game jam with over 35 autistic participants. Here's a preview of one of the games we've been working on 👀
The games created from the jam will be released on itch.io near the end of the month!

Every time I have to write pure C I'm constantly asking "please point me to the exit" and I just have to hope some prankster hasn't just pointed me to the hellgates of oblivion
Or worse, pointing me to another pointer, so I get to have that anxiety all over again

Good morning, world.
Been thinking about the NovelRT C API again.
C API design is not only hard it's actually kinda cursed.
Oh well. I'll get there.
