@fwa @bruno_simon Well deserved Bruno!🎉👏

Huge congrats to @bruno_simon for winning both FWA of the Year 2025 and also FWA People's Choice Award 2025 too! This is the first time in our entire 25 year history that a project created by one person has won both of our yearly distinctions thefwa.com/editorial/fwa-…

A sneak peak of what I've been working on: A strand based hair system for Jolt Physics (WIP): youtu.be/Rl19G0c003o

1/5🧵 Today I gave to my physics engine NPCs a brain 🧠 Each Agent now supports custom Sensors and Intents, fully extensible through a simple API. If I keep going, we might see a GTA in the browser before GTA6😄

@mustache_dev @pierrick_picaut I really want to learn rigging and animation this year also. Then up popped Pierricks channel in my YT! Loved the content and seriously considering taking a course. Will be following your progress.

Started @pierrick_picaut 's Alive! animation course This is the Hello world exercise 👀

Next week I’ll put online physics examples, and I’ll need some gamer testers👾 The magic of Three.js Blocks Engine is that users can plug in their own Physics Models: Platformers, FPS, RTS, anything. It even ships with presets like quake, here I vibe coded a CS1.6 surf mod!

@bruno_simon Amazing work Bruno! 🎉🥳👏 Thanks for taking us on the journey with the Dev logs too. I’m sure that extended the dev time but its been amazing to watch this masterpiece evolve.

6 years of thinking I can make a better portfolio. 1 year of actually building it. My new portfolio is LIVE 🚀 Please, don't break anything! 👉 bruno-simon.com

Blender Scripting section is live! 3 hours of new content for the gamedev course. Build custom plugins, exporters, and automate things like lightmap baking. Preview: #03-11-blender-scripting-intro" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">simondev.io/lessons/gamede… Over 65 hours of course content is now live! #threejs

@mattvb91 @bruno_simon Great stuff Matt! Another web dev here on a very similar journey. Been thinking of doing a dev log too so this great inspiration. Will be following your progress.

My new game 's.p.l.i.t' is out now on Steam! A narrative driven psychological horror hacking game, where you attempt to infiltrate an unethical superstructure. Thank you for the support! :)

After few adjustments and thanks to #threejs TSL 💙🙏 this experiment runs on #webgpu and #webgl ! Try it with firefox to test webgl fallback : threejs-webgpu-test.netlify.app/test2 Source : github.com/klevron/test-w…

@dghez_ Sorry it’s bundled up within a larger project. Once I’ve refined it, il separate it out and make a link.

@_DarrellBean link plz, want to play with this

To all the tech artists/ vfx artists. I have so much respect for your skill! Here is my attempt at a slash effect 🗡️⚡️ using #threejs and TSL running the browser. So much learned and so much more to learn. #gamedev #tsl #webgpu #threejsJourney

@PRAGYANCHA79497 @threejsgamejam Vanilla Three.js

@_DarrellBean @threejsgamejam Vanilla Three.js or R3F?

@thomas_matlock Oh😂. Yes I baked the animations into the model via blender and exported as glb. I actually baked into the sword mesh for its own attack animations. At runtime when it's equipped, I create the action and add it to the characters animation list.

@_DarrellBean Sooo 😂 how did you do animation? Baked into your model and exported? Or separate FBX? I’m trying to make a mixamo FBX library in threejs and apply it dynamically to a rig No luck yet 😤

@thomas_matlock The knight animation is good old mixamo. The slash effect is all shaders done in three.js

@_DarrellBean It’s incredibly smooth Did you do this in blender then move to gltf/threejs?

@AgrwalNishan @threejs Thank you ☺️

@_DarrellBean @threejs Amazing Bean
