Another evening of filter refactoring and optimization, a few more nice performance jumps.
I've now done a first pass (remove deprecated method signatures, add explicit input location, add NVTX trace data, do easy GPU optimization if I see an obvious low effort win) on all filters A-F alphabetically plus a few later on that were priorities for one reason or other.
90 down (of which 23 were optimized and the rest just refactored), 115 to go.
Some of the remaining ones sh…

Been playing Roots Devour (#Steam via CrossOver on #macOS
BE THE ELDRITCH HORROR YOU ALWAYS KNEW YOU WERE
It's pretty great, put in 8 hours so far.
The general gist of the game is strategic, puzzle-like reveal of map levels - capturing cards of creatures and humans, wrapping them in your blood sucking vines, and generally conquering all.
When you get stuck, spend some of the blood to open a card pack and get random helper tools, effects, and critters.
Sounds are superb and visuals are very 𝒜𝐸𝒮𝒯𝐻𝐸𝒯𝐼𝒞 - if you dig Cult of the Lamb or Darkest Dungeon, you'll probably enjoy it.
Only downside is that there's an occasional indicator that English is not the primary language of the game developers. Very rarely you can see untranslated Chinese text on-screen, one or two oddities (uncapitalized, punctuation slightly off). This is unfortunately probably why they're getting a little beat up in the Steam reviews.
Honestly, in my 8 hours so far, I've noticed it like 3? 4? times tops so far. The game is so very much my jam, it really hasn't bothered me.
Some people are also reviewing it as "too linear" - they definitely gave up way too early. There are SECRETS, side areas, choices you can make, intentionally difficult areas that will take some thinking to unlock, etc.
Currently 10% off right now, give it a shot!

In the last, guttering hours of the year, it’s tradition to look back on the last 12 months’ #TTRPG activity and reflect. You can read last year’s summary at https://dice.camp/@davej/113747664699824381…
