Ray tracing is very common technique for generating photo-realistic digital imagery, which is exactly what we'll be doing in this series. Aside from learning all about ray tracing and the math to goes into it, as well as how to implement it, we'll also be focusing on performance and optimization in C++ to make our renderer as efficient as possible. We'll eventually switch to using the GPU instead of the CPU (using Vulkan) to run our ray tracing algorithms, as this will be much faster that using the CPU. This will also be a great introduction to leveraging the power of the GPU in the software you write. All of the code episode-by-episode will be released, and if you need help check out the #raytracing-series channel on my Discord server.

The jam runs twice a year these days, in April and October. I've done Ludum Dare eight times before, however I've never done it in a team (nor have I used Hazel) - this was the first time that Studio Cherno (myself, Tim and Peter) collaborated on making a game in Hazel.Forest is what we came up with. Even though it wasn't without its difficulties, we're super proud of what we've managed to achieve. Hazel behaved itself surprisingly well, and actually crashed WAY less than Premiere Pro whilst editing this video. There are so many new features and improvements that we can't wait to add to Hazel, and honestly the team and I are super looking forward to taking everything we've learned to the next jam. Hope you enjoyed this video and playing Forest! ❤️
Make your own GUI apps in C++ (with ImGui and Vulkan) The Cherno 2022-04-15 | Walnut ► github.com/TheCherno/WalnutSupport my work ► patreon.com/thechernoInstagram ► instagram.com/thechernoTwitter ► twitter.com/thechernoDiscord ► discord.gg/thechernoI made a little UI framework called Walnut! This is meant to be something super-easy and lightweight to setup and use for any kind of GUI application, and the native integration with Vulkan makes this perfect for graphics/rendering related apps. In fact, we'll be using Walnut very soon for an exciting new series on this channel!I made Walnut in around six hours, so there are bound to be some issues + lacking features. The reason I made it in the first place is so we could make a launcher for our game Forest (bit.ly/StudioChernoLD50), which we made in 72 hours for Ludum Dare 50. We wanted to use elements from Hazel's UI library (which uses Dear ImGui), but we didn't want the entirety of Hazel statically compiled into the launcher, so I quickly put Walnut together.Since a lot of you showed interest in ImGui and more content around it from my last video on the topic, I might turn this into a little series as I expand Walnut and add more features (such as a custom titlebar). Thanks for watching! ❤️Chapters:---------------0:00 - I made a little app framework called Walnut2:53 - How to use Walnut to make an app11:08 - How Walnut works
We MADE A GAME to Prepare for Making a Game! The Cherno 2022-04-01 | Download and play for free! ► studiocherno.itch.io/fragileSupport us on Patreon ► patreon.com/thechernoDiscord (#fragile channel) ► discord.gg/thechernoStream ► twitch.tv/thechernoInstagram ► instagram.com/thechernoTwitter ► twitter.com/thechernoIn preparation for the Ludum Dare game jam this weekend, we decided to... make a game (in a day - the day before). Although there was much regret at times, mostly dreading the weekend and wondering why we signed up for this, I think we managed to come up with a decent prototype and jamed in some more engine features. Did I mention we made this in Hazel, our own game engine?"Fragile" (named after the theme we randomly selected) is about protecting your fragile home planet from incoming missiles. Use the WASD keys to move, mouse to look around, and click to shoot - or you can plug in a controller if you'd prefer.We might develop this game a little further in the future, since we have some more ideas and think this has some potential to be a fun little game. Let us know what you think, and thanks for playing!#Hazel
