This past year I got the chance to update our bruise texture system, it was a lot of fun to research all of ways bruises appear and what shapes they take.

I’ll be doing a live demo on Sept 18th for Gnomon School, showing my costume design for character process.

One of the best parts of our game dev process is getting to design costumes for our fictional characters and working with the team to really hone in on solid design. The whole process is fun.

I’m a huge fan of story and @dontnod.bsky.social never fails to deliver a solid story… “ Life is Strange” was such a good game I had to give this a try… the pacing felt slow at first but then delivered a gut punch and twist so I’m really enjoying it. Check it out.

We've been working on adjusting the lighting in our snowy, open-world Tandar level to feel a little more dim, distant, and tinged with unease. What'cha think, friends? ❄️
