If I'm gonna be honest, I completely forgot I had Windows on this computer. I've been daily-driving this thing for a couple of months now, and I'm quite happy.

Note: I started writing this on the 7th of August 2025 and ended in early October.

I got a nice little 2TB M.2 SSD some time ago, and figured I'd evaluate Linux more seriously!

It's been a while since the last post, but don't worry! I've been doing stuff.

I have a reason to believe this year marks the return of old me. I'll explain what that means soon.

I started porting Half-Life SDK over to C#, basically aiming to have all the game code there, and only the utmost minimal C++ boilerplate to let the engine launch the mod & then delegate all logic to a C# DLL. But first, some in-the-meantime stuff.

Happy New Year! Is it just me, or is the winter making me horribly sleepy non-stop? Or maybe I should just take small naps during the day.

So I finally found some time to re-enable rendering in Elegy. I also noticed I've been a bit more productive lately. Oh, and my ESP32 chips arrived!

Hello Internet! It's been a while for sure. Tonight I'm gonna briefly write about this website and some project-related stuff, and of course, HL2's 20th birthday.

Alright, let's see what I wrote about last time...

Mental health.. mhm. Yeah, it's good now. I fixed my sleep schedule, too, I managed to wake up at 7:40 this morning and have proper pre-11:30 breakfast even. Back then it was a scramble to have brunch before 15:00, hah.

The VRChat + Virtual Desktop hack still works, annnd I've yet to actually automate it. Because of course, that's how it goes. My brother managed to complete Boneworks, Bonelab and Half-Life Alyx, all before me.

Wew. I'm happy to say I've already reached a few goals I set for myself in January:

• mental health good
• started a HL mapping series
• got a real good microphone & audio interface
  • and a guitar
• started making videos in 1080p

Elegy is en route to becoming more and more usable, so that's cool.

Sretna nova! (or srećna as our eastern neighbours would say it)

2023 was full of ups and downs and ups and downs, and I'm finally feeling a little more stable now. A short overview of what happened throughout the year:

• January: started the Elegy Engine project, wrote some raymarching shaders
• February: worked on a secret lil' GUI tool project
• March: cemented the Elegy Engine project, played with Veldrid, ported Unreal-style water to Godot
• April: got a job, started working on my college game project (in Unity ;w;)
• May: got used to the job, started working on a commercial Source game on the side - Amygdala
