Did anyone ask for an FX breakdown of how I did the Comic Book Cel Shading for JETRUNNER?
No? WELL HERE IT IS ANYWAY.
Here's a quick after and before. In this thread you'll find a breakdown of everything I've done.
Please like and share so more people can see and learn from it!

Being a good community manager is insane to me.
You're on discord, the main app you use for absolute bullshit. You have consumed alcochol, the least professionsl state of several listed states. A state known to lower your judgement.
Somehow you're supposed to judge that you should not use Discord

The Knightling has so much going for it. So many fun mechanics, so much whimsy and joy. It has most of the ingredients needed to be one of those rare games I just plain love.
It's also littered with very annoying design decisions that I'm trying my best to stomach, but it's really getting to me.

Now that I've gotten every banana and fossile in Donkey Kong Bananza I'm finally qualified to review it.
Game's fun. Smashing thing is fun. I hope I never see these smahing mechanics ever again. Digging around looking for Bananas is just not as fun as searching for Moons in Odyssey.

Tomorrow is a big day. It's one month until launch, and the end of summer vaccation. In other words: Hell is about to break loose.
Time to finish the video game.
See you all on the 4. of September.

It feels really nice to be drawing again. It's a real shame I can only really make time for it when a game is in pre-production.

Finally my new drawing tablet arrived after Adobe rendered my old drawing laptop useless by removing DX11 support.
Time to start some pre-production on an unannounced title 👀

‘JETRUNNER’ Puts Speed and Precision First and Foremost, Taking Inspiration From ‘Neon White’ and ‘Trackmania’ for High-Flying Action
'JETRUNNER' combines movement with shooting for a new futuristic sport, one that I can't wait to sink far too much time into.

Donkey Kong Bananza is sick, but you have to much power to allow any challange to have identity, and the world is too mallable to allow any moment to stand out.
That said I do enjoy punching the world.

We've just finished turning JETRUNNER's most boring environment into a work of art.
The third world in JETRUNNER spans ten floors of a giant skyscraper. You climb higher with every level. Sick concept, but the levels themselves were just white pillars resting in water.
Solution? Parks everywhere.

You know what they say about hiring professionals to do your capsule art?
Yeah, people are not joking, it's just a good idea. Way better than just tossing stuff we have in engine together and hoping for the best.

The amount of reviews we have on the JETRUNNER demo with like 50+ hours of playtime blows my mind.
