Mr. President, a second Persona 4 VA skeet has hit
For those asking, I have not been asked to reprise my role as Chie Satonaka in the Persona 4 remake.
RIP 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I am blessed to have recorded as many Persona 4 games as I did playing her.

Been working on a tether system, similar to the one in Astroneer. It's still a very early progress but it feels great seeing it in action!
Whole system is made in C++ with the connections made with a Spline Mesh Component.

Hey everyone! Here's a stylized character we worked on — we retextured it and created a custom stylized shader in Unreal Engine. The original concept was done by Yishu Ci.

✨Created a light themed attack VFX in Unreal~
I used Blender and Substance Designer, but mostly everything was in Unreal w Niagara. I additionally wanted to emit some particles out of the character, but I also really wanted to share this! Any thoughts? :)

Layering of more custom particle sim effects for motion and reactivity on top of the localized destruction + emission.
Don't be afraid to do weird incorrect math or break the laws of physics if the results look cool and the animation is pleasing to look at.
