Video Game Dev Enjoyer trying to go indie.
Previously RUINER, EVIL WEST
Work on "gib system" continues. I am now experimenting with dynamic painting of the skin layer with particles (for something like dripping blood for example). 😊

Work on "volumetric gib system" continues. Added resistance to damage depending on proximity to bone.

Still need to work on effects on the outer shell (skin) :)

Hello, long time since I last posted :)

I am trying to figure out / hack a system that would add an actual, procedural volume of *MEAT* inside characters. 🥩

Another test of "layered" approach to our in game characters for some fancy gibbing effects 💀

A quick procedural animation concept :)

The goal is to make something unique ("weird" ?) and messy ;)

Growing creep effect with a bit of parallax :)

Used morph targets to achieve an effect of an evolving creature in Unreal Engine. Material transition still needs a bit of work, but I'm happy with the effect so far. Trying to keep an hint of an "retro-ish" aesthetic

3/3: After enough blood has been absorbed, a humanoid body spawns which you can take control of 😈 #GameDev #Indie #UnrealEngine

2/3: You can spawn an organic "womb" that collects and absorbs the nearby spilled blood #GameDev #Indie #UnrealEngine

1/3: A floating drone fighting against zombies, with some dynamic blood painting :) #GameDev #Indie #UnrealEngine

More work on "particles into voxels" Niagara system I am experimenting with 🙂

Gotta love it how after tweeting for months about game mechanics / vfx I come here, post playing around with IK and suddenly the post gets more likes then I got views on that other platform 😅🤣

Anyway here's more of the same but in Unreal Engine 😎

Yeah, everyone does this after setting up IK 🤪

A small snippet of an example gameplay from our project. As you can see physics play a major role and I always wanted to recreate "slamming enemies around" feel from (perhaps a bit obscure) PSX game WILD 9 😈

Here is a little teaser of something I am currently experimenting with for a game project I am working on together with friends. A Niagara emitter which basically voxelizes particles without any volume render targets :)
