**"Before & after of my mushroom character 🍄
Added more texture, glow, and grit to give them more personality and presence.
Still keeping it stylized but leaning into that corrupted cave explorer vibe.

Which version do you like more?"**

Working on the look of my game's underground world—this is one of my main reference images. What do you think? Would you want to explore a place like this?

🍄 Something wild is stirring in the mushroom forest...

Our little hero’s ready to swing into action — but where will the grapple take them next?

Stay tuned. Big adventures (and maybe a few surprises) are just around the corner.

Here’s a sneak peek at the new grapple mechanic in action, paired with a smooth third-person controller. Built in Unity

Finally got around to adding some basic animations to the Enemy. What kind of behavior do you think I should add?

Worked on the note pickup recently What do you think so far? Still got to work on the visuals but it seems to be coming together nicely!

Started working on the enemy. Not very smart yet but with time and effort he'll get there 😅 🤞 how do you think the enemy should behave? Let me know in comments!

Hey all!

What kind of horror game would you want to play a horror game based on corrupt Teletubbies OR a game about the bunny man? Here's some visuals made with ai to help get the feel of both!

Ever wondered what a Teletubbies horror game would look like? 👀 I'm working on a chaotic survival horror experience where the friendly faces from childhood aren't so friendly anymore...

Would you play a Teletubbies-themed horror game?

Got some of the grapple mechanics up and running in unity in a fraction of the time it took in Unreal. As much as I like Unreal I think Unity might be the engine I use for this project but what do you think?

So... I made a little acorn pistol for my game I call it the Acorn Blaster! What do you guys think of it? Currently trying to decide between using a sword or a gun which do you think would be more fun?
