Timeline cleanse anyone? Rough day for artists.
So tell me about your comic or project. Show me some cool stuff you've been working on. I wanna see the good shit vs all these news headlines. ❤️

There's a bit on the whole "You're really efficient at x, but going max efficiency for more than 4 hours will drain you of your remaining energy for the day"
Anyone else has that?

Anyone else ever had the situation where there's some VERY complicated math on part of your game code, and you wrote a guide on how it works
And it's like... the 7th time you're reading this because DEAR GOD the math is terrifying
Having the hardest time with uneven frame count animations

Aside from sprite work, I’ve been learning and doing some VFX. Here’s a compilation of the ones I made on Threads of Time:

And the shapes are done!
Really think that a wrist moulinet fits pretty well a lightning-wielding character, and making the animation as fast as possible feels gud

Have been working on the trailer for a while, but I'm back working on the animation of the characters for now
And there's such a great satisfaction of being able to nerd about martial arts
Not many other games I can justify animating a wrist moulinet because yes
Anyways, here's today's progress!

We ran a randomized controlled trial to see how much AI coding tools speed up experienced open-source developers.
The results surprised us: Developers thought they were 20% faster with AI tools, but they were actually 19% slower when they had access to AI than when they didn't.

Reaaaally feel that we could work on making Chroma's Effigy an exalted sentinel
And the breath weapon being moddable with elemental mods be only damage boost
And spectral scream scaling with the effigy's breath weapon, like Excalibur's slash dash in the future? Yum
