Forgot to link my puzzle platformer mini-game for Windows, so here it is for free talesdenorie.itch.io/drag-n-loop
You have to be strategic about where you place your limited platforms and how you use your loopy fireball to complete the level.

In this fourth video we finish off the campfire VFX, and then I'll start recording the videos for the fireball and hooking up the VFX to the dragon animation and campfire, including scripting www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMca...

I've now uploaded part 3 of my stylized fire Unity tutorial, where I explain depth fade, dissolve, and other things. You can check it out here www.youtube.com/watch?v=wx1x...

Just uploaded part 2 of my tutorial mini-series on how to make this stylized fire in Unity. Now we're distorting the main fire texture by doing UV manipulation. Here's the link to the playlist on youtube www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I'm making a tutorial mini-series on how to make this stylised fire vfx in Unity. In part 1 we start working on the shader graph and particle system of the main campfire flames. You can watch it on youtube www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1Kt...

The watermelon cannonball is one of the transformations you learn as the tanuki character, and later you get a bouncy powerup for it, which allows you to do a sort of triple-jump and bounce off walls.

Still working on this platformer where you play as a shapeshifting tanuki. Now you can somersault and float as a balloon.

I worked a bit more on this puzzle platformer I made for the GMTK game jam. You have to get across each section of the level using your loopy fireball, and strategically placing your limited platforms into the level from your inventory.

🎨 Color Theory: Why is color Value so important in VFX?
💡 Pro-tip! Use a built-in Windows feature to check the values for the content on your screen quickly:
In Accessibility (Win11) / Ease of Access (Win10) > Color Filters, enable the shortcut and set the filter to Greyscale.

I also made this fireball and found a nice dragon asset, so now the dragon spits out a fireball to start the campfire.

Toxic sludge cannon? Check. Unsettling grin? Double check. ☠️ The Kotan Poisoner is coming, and it's here to make your next encounter a little more...corrosive.

Making where you use your shapeshifting powers to platform. Heavily inspired by Banjo Kazooie, Mario 64, and Pom Poko.

Wrapped up the punching combo I made to get familiar with working in Houdini for real-time. Of course, even with all that realism, things ended up very stylized!

Passion project I'm working on. A platformer where you learn new transformations which give you new moves. Heavily inspired by Banjo Kazooie and Tooie 🐻🐦

Finished my poison projectile... probably. Also used a few textures from the @vfxapprentice.bsky.social Goo Splat for this one too.

Decided to split my poison effect into two separate ones. I'll work on the projectile next. For these, I'm using a few textures from the VFX Apprentice "Goo Splat".
