In the last few years, live-streaming has skyrocketed in popularity. Through live-streaming, we can share videos of ourselves and our screens with a greater audience, who can communicate with us through chat.

Game Development

1.5 update. Just a quick post to let you all know that Drag Camera 2D pro just got updated to version 1.5. The latest update has been added to the unity asset store and has some bug fixes and an updated controller for the player example. This was to fix an issue with users with high refresh rates (60FPS +). I recently got a new high refresh rate monitor that can handle 165 FPS, before this I was only able to test at max 60 FPS.
