Updated pinned post as there's so many new faces here so hello everyone!
I'm Chappu and I'm a solo dev working on a handpainted third person horrorgame about an all girls ghost club.

This is what it currently looks like in engine and below you'll find my gamedev recap of everything I've made so far

Don't mind me, just resharing my gamedev recap of everything I've made for my horror game so far cause I want to make a new pinned post.

Were you getting bored of my three trees and the ground plane? No problem as I've finally managed to get Makena's room into the engine.
Hope you like the comfy atmosphere. Surely nothing bad will happen.
Also flowy dithered curtains hello?

It's my birthday today so I thought I'd make a recap of all the #gamedev I did since last year. Also I heard I get to wish for reposts today?😶‍🌫️
Backing track is new music I made for the game.

I'm learning... And while it doesn't yield the results I want(yet) it's also really bad for the frame rate😊

I don't have much for today. Refined some facial expressions, finished her upper body textures and her body rig. Now it's only the hair and shoe textures left and she's ready to go into #cascadeur for animating.

If I stop responding I died of heatstroke cause it's been 30°C INSIDE my apartment for the last three days.
While I melt I thought I'd share another old clip.
Lots of WIP stuff in here but I realized most of you haven't even seen what Makena looks like in engine.

I often feel like less of a gamedev cause I'm that classic art person "just" making a horror walking sim.
I'm trying to learn how to make other systems in a silly study project too now so that's helped a bit.
Look I can plant metal spheres and make a stick explode🤦

I'm working through a bunch of random tutorials that are more or less (mostly less) helpful to my current project and I'm like 3 minutes into this one but I'm having way too much fun.

Ok I do not in fact have any fun gamedev to show for today and the mermaid is also back cause I didn't have time for a new animation either😭
But I thought I'd continue with sharing music at least.
Have this snippet of a song that has lyrics but in this part it (thankfully) doesn't.

Hair is about 70% done and I already never want to do this again😅
Also there's no translucent or clipped textures on the hair. It's all just painted in. Don't know if it'll work in different lighting but if it does that would be neat.

I'm done with the face textures! Now onto the hair😊
Also are you annoyed by these micro updates yet?
Well gamedev is pain so I hope you're really feeling how slow this grind is.

Quick video on how I make flat eyebrows look less flat on my 3D characters.
Also can we appreciate how I'm holding up my phone with my other hand to record this?
