Not great at finishing games. Current project: Vampire Pinball
NC, strong desire to be good at macramé
Current WIP - rigged wings for bat mode yesterday, animated and put them in engine today (and drew a tiny lil' bat form smoke poof as a treat) This movement is feeling great! I stream randomly at www.twitch.tv/2ndfavorite if that's your thing!

Getting close to finding Count Bounceula's personality. I will let you choose the haircut, maybe.

I've never been a huge tabletop games person, I will play but never seek them out - so imagine my surprise when I go to one PAX and start making my own design for a game called "Dogs with jobs" and it's all I can think about it.

What's that? That's the ADHD? Oh.

Got the results hooked up to the CRT material. Slot: done. Inventory: done. Ready to realize these ghosties.

I'm pausing on the typing game to build out a smaller scoped project - a fun twist on tower defense where you run a temp agency for ghosts ... I'll fill you in more soon.

Got a "slot machine", inventory and name generator rocking over the past few days!

Moving this project from Godot to UE. I am not a strong programmer and I got to a point where the web of scripts was too much. I've used blueprints for years so this is way more comfortable.

I've started finishing pieces of the environment, and have the keyboard manager set up so far!

Update: I started working on a portal that looks like a butthole and it's a bit too much. I've got a new plan but please remember this moment and the sacrifices I make for you.

He's not really that chunky, he's just a shapeshifter.

Oh no he melt.

I DO have typing in the game. Is it far along? No. Does it kinda work? Kinda! Will you be able to tell what's going on? Eventually. ❤️

Getting the customer select UI set up. I've got the main typing scene set up, and I'm working on the keyboard customization now! I'll be able to get my steam page up sooooon

I took a break from coding to model and rig Seraphina here. I'm working on a typing game in Godot with some Balatro-like mechanics and a modern occult setting. You can find me on twitch sometimes www.twitch.tv/2ndfavorite

Love you.

Something about these gave me a 1990's Nickelodeon vibe and I couldn't say no. They are heavy af.

Almost finished with this little slice of a game I'm working on. I had just been using programmer art, but decided to get a cheeky portfolio piece out of it while I was at it!

Watching graduation commencement from the car on a break from work. Glad to be done, please hire me to make your environments or process your assets. I used to help run a cruise ship ... does that count for anything? No? That's understandable.

Started a nature diorama to practice foliage and find a better workflow with scan data. I've got to invest in a new camera cause my 5 year old 13mp phone camera is not cutting it 🤣 I made a lil scan processor in houdini and a few materials today

I just finished up my graduation capstone project and im pretty proud of it! I'd love it if you took a sec to check it out at www.artstation.com/artwork/aoJrOL

Doesn't look like a giant update but I made a some new decals and materials in designer for vertex painting, and started texturing the front entryway 🔒

Ceiling paint flaking test one ... had a bunch of grand ideas between simulating in Houdini or using the PCG ... ended up just using the foliage tool 😅

You know that feeling you get when it turns out the way you imagined? Here's my vault entrance in Unreal Engine ... now the door.
November 14, 2023 at 1:01 AM
Just a bench and a chandelier nbd. Got all the UV's for my scene done too. ✔️
November 13, 2023 at 1:42 AM
I asked a bank if they would tell me how tall their vault entrance was and I think I got put on some sort of watch list. More details!
