After three months of work, my presentation on the nCine multi-threaded job system is finally online.
Concurrency basics, atomics, acquire/release, false sharing, ABA, CPU topologies, ECS experiments, benchmarks & profiling.

The recording from my /dev/games 2025 presentation in Rome is on YouTube! 📽️
It's a one hour talk about the last 14 years developing the nCine, my open source and cross platform 2D game framework, with a lot of interesting challenges and technical aspects.

Wet Paper is out!
An enhanced version of our #GGJ2025 game, made in C++ with the open source #nCine framework. The game itself is open source too!

I’ve added support for a bunch of environment variables that you can set to override any run-time value in your nCine AppConfiguration.

Things like fullscreen mode, VSync, output audio frequency, the data path, the log file name, and much more.
