What one month of learning #Crocotile3D does for a previously strictly 2D artist... incredible glow up for my game!

Wtf did I just watch? A sprite stacking program?? This is impressive for sure.
This is genuinely some of the most impressive graphics from a pixel art game I've ever seen

Would it make sense if I told you this scene was inspired by Alberto Balsam? It's what I always pictured in my head, the drips and falls and crystalline structures... #AphexTwin

Expanded this #Crocotile3D scene quite a bit, check it out!
Also, if anyone wants some 3D environments I am open to commission just on Bluesky for now but soon also on Fiverr.

Wow, time really flies when you're having fun in #Crocotile3D
How did it get from 7pm to midnight and I'm still in the mines?

This cloud effect was probably the hardest thing I've ever done but it was so worth it. Render orders and seams and shaders 😱

My visuals are getting pretty complex, so I made this channel for better quality uploads. Now you can watch in 1080p. Here are newly drawn clouds. I am writing a shader for these!

Testing some WIP features- offshore aerial barrage (later will hatch enemies), hand drawn cloud layers, and spooky door!

A door you can place anywhere was easy to make.
...one that you can't place into rocks and trees was harder!

Only played a bit of Angeline Era so far but I'm already kind of in love with it. The first PS1-style indie I've played that actually feels true to that early experimental 3d era of gaming, both in terms of visuals and gameplay.

Designing a new island and some better props to place around the shoreline.
No there isn't a ground texture yet! The animated tiles didn't react to light so I'm keeping them separate for testing.

Artomyces pyxidatus, the Crown-tipped Coral or Candelabra Coral fungus, was not seen in the UK over the entire 20th century, its last record in 1886 until a spate of recent findings around 2022, which is when I found this specimen (in East Kent). Where did it disappear all this time?

It took a thousand years but I opened the door to actual 3D gameplay for my game!

Oh boy... I exported my animated tiles from crocotile into Godot, and they got lost somewhere along the way 😅
At least I know what I'm doing with my weekend!
