Animated a new combat idle for my barbarian character in #Blender 🪓 I'm thinking it may be a bit fast for a casual idle. He looks a little out of breath. What do you think? Should I slow it down a little?

My barbarian may be standing idle, but I'm not! More #Blender #Animation practice! How did I do?

It’s not a golden banana or a legendary loot drop… but it is collectable! 😂
The challenge was to find something to collect using only the map assets I had. May swap it out later, but the mechanics work! That’s a win in my book! 🎮✨

Built a mover component in #UnrealEngine to make a sliding door and a moving platform! It will take teamwork, timing, and just a dash of chaos to reach the goal… but that’s half the fun, right? 😎🎮 How should I use these to create challenges?

Welp… that didn’t go quite as planned 😅
The perfectionist in me wants to keep tinkering, but this lesson is just an intro to #Blender #Animation Time to accept — “good enough” is good enough!✨ Any tips as I move forward?

The learning course I’m following is for #UnrealEngine 5.2, but I’m on #UE 5.6 — turns out the Steam Subsystem had major changes!☠️
Spent way too long troubleshooting… but victory tastes sweet!🍾Hard-fought, hard-learned, and now I know better.💻🔥

Super hyped to finally learn how to bridge a main menu to the game session in #UnrealEngine 🎮
Until now, it’s all been about the game loop. I’ve been itching to figure out how menus fit into the bigger picture. Can’t wait to dive deeper! 🚀

Serving fierce Blender runway energy in this practice session 💃✨
Striking poses like I’m about to headline Fashion Week… but really, it’s just me and my viewport. Be honest — do I work the runway, or trip over it? 😂👠

Still only in the intro, and I’m already picking up tricks that would’ve saved me so much pain on past animations. Better late than never, right?🎬✨Fellow #gamedevs and #animators — what’s your “wish I knew sooner” tip?

Fun fact: A client RPC only runs on the target client. That means only the player who triggered it sees the fire… so yes, Ricky Bobby really was on fire!🔥😂

Another multiplayer learning session, another “meh” demo. But trust me, this cube is a certified multicast RPC arsonist! Had to make it sound cooler some how, lol… just wait until it spreads chaos across the map!😂

I’ve been experimenting with FK vs. IK animations—I always assumed IK is just better than FK. But having tried it with arm swing I see that was a rookie thought… IK isn’t always the go-to solution! Arms have their own drama.😂💪

Victory!🎉Got a Listen Server running in #UnrealEngine with #Cplusplus packaged it up (quirks and all), and connected my dev PC to my trusty old laptop over LAN. The poor thing fought bravely… but it’s definitely more potato than gaming rig.🥔💻😂
