Vulkan 1.1.76 spec update is out, featuring VK_KHR_draw_indirect_count (yay! finally! :)). Hopefully driver support will be there soon? I've updated github.com/zeux/volk to the latest version.

Released my second #Vulkan demo at AtParty 2018! #demoscene The party results are now available on pouet: pouet.net/party.php?whic… I'll be uploading a YouTube capture as soon as I get a chance. pouet.net/prod.php?which…

Finally got around to uploading a video of my latest #Vulkan demo! youtube.com/watch?v=h4YZUf…
