My book about character customization in Unity is updated with the first chapter of the section on Spine 2D that I'm working on. The first half of the book was all about 3D characters, and the second half is about 2D!

Started playing a big of Hellblade II the other day, and that first level really inspired me to see if I could get a similar vibe in Unity with a handful of megascans and a bit of HAZE 🌫
Really dig the results, especially for ~1.5 hours of messing around 👀

Help me find this game from my feed will ya, it was a black and white Cult of the Lamb-like game same cult-themed idea but the perk was you could draw in blood for some reason. It’s a one word title, I was captivated by the minimalist style. I know you’re out there devs. #pitchyagame #indiegame

Climbing 🧗 is a little tricky at first, but it's really fun when you're use to it.

After years of work, I'm very proud to release my debut game "Super Space Arcade" to the public today. It's a short loveletter to simpler times, as I remember them. I hope it brings you joy. #gamedev #indiegamedev #madewithunity

Here's a cool sequence where I was able to flip the field and score in a single run of turns. Launching the demo has given me some space to actually just play the game and enjoy it :)
