It's my first time making a 3D #animation, but I'm very satisfied! I intend to use this for gliding mid-air, to stretch your jump's reach. Do you like it?

You enter the second level of #Crash 2, and nothing but three boxes await you. What does this mean from a #gamedesign perspective? (See my thread 🧵👇 below for explanation)

I wanted to record a video of me making a mockup design for the demo level but the terrain editor plugin I found online for Godot keeps crashing on me randomly. Anyways, I found this timelapse cool so even though it's worthless, here you go 😂

Any #gamedev SPEAKING #Japanese 🇯🇵 ? I started my journey in 2023, but only began consistently pursuing it this Summer. Here's how my #BeatEmUp game's title is written 📝
Are you learning a foreign language? I can recommend my native tongue, Hungarian 🇭🇺 (Proceed with caution, it's HARD!)

🎨Throwback to Pik's first #ConceptArt. You can see he's a bit bulkier on this one :) Do you think the skinny design works better for our #BeatEmUp inspired by #CrashBandicoot?

Is it a fox? Is it a giraffe?! No, it's Pik the skunk! I just like doing random stuff with 3D skeletons :)
