Thank you back from one of the three people working on it :)
The team appreciates the kind words, most of the great work was done by our Art director and our 3D artist!

Of course, theres some super fun tutorials on this sort of technique on youtube youtu.be/VNY49SGQAJs?...

And finally! Merging it all down into one layer for a last pass with Camera Raw (color correction + cranking up texture for a crisper look) as well as a bit of lens correction for that curved screen look! Last curves layer and boom. All in All roughly 24 Layers of stuff.

At this point it looks like this. Now we do all the fun layering to finalize it! In this case - Curves for dramatic lighting, 3 layers of reflections and dirt (thanks adobe stock) that get hand painted in with a mask, some shadows around, a bit of the highlight in the top, some color correction.

Outer Glow, two blurred color overlay layers for more granular glow control. Gradient mapping, and then applying an LCD-RGB pattern to create the screen effect, Levels adjustment adjust the brightness levels of the image, gradient mapping it for the green colors, levels again, then some grain.

Hey! Since i made this - base logo was created in illustrator (spookality text) and then brought into PS as a smart object with the other text elements and the border (see below) After that its a bunch of layers with layer styles to create the glow effect.

The fact this is from an actual presentation you held in front of the whole company today makes this even more unhinged and i'm all here for it.

This is also my experience when people look at my VRChat hours in a cs game

Very much agreed. It's mostly a convenience feature anyway since you can just go to the channel's videos and start watching the VOD while they're live. Good QOL feature that's a nice addition for people that pay a little extra. Also makes ads a lot easier to manage probably.

OUR ILLUSTRATOR LOVED THE LITTLE RAT SO MUCH THEY DREW IT TOO

I'm glad someone's getting the reference and I'm even more glad i convinced flare to post this one.

Tupper making a character named Vrchat and advertising VRC+ in every dungeon we hit tonight. Please get me the fuck out of there.

Is that the peter griffin death pose. I need to learn how to do that.

It was planned for a while but we should totally let you take credit.🤝

You will never see me on rocket league in my life again

Looking forward to more co-op streams with tupper.

Tears in my eyes
