yeah so this happened last night while playing Protoball for Community Game Night.
In Protoball you can shoot a shield which explodes and pushes things away, you can knock the ball off course and self-pass, and... apparently you can do this.
Has to be the first time ever...

Hey friends, quick update! I promise we're going to get better at social media and post more!
Check out this concept art made for Protoball's "Orbital" map.
Worked with studio @auleek.bsky.social to bring the map to life in game.
Protoball is back! If you want to play join us anytime!

15 seconds from kick off to goal, a well executed play by us devs in a devs vs testers match. We put point zones back in, so there are 1, 2, and 3 point zones in the arena.
We added in-game text for certain events and it makes a huge difference. It's so much fun with the comic style pop-ups.

15 seconds of our indie game, Protoball. In this clip we save a goal with a shield projectile, eliminate an opponent with a shield, then I clear the goal with another shield so my teammate can shoot their shot uncontested. The remake of Protoball is feeling so damn good right now. Come play!

These sewing lines in Marvelous Designer hit me with such nostalgia today when I connected them to an old screensaver on old Windows 95 or 98 PCs. I loved those old screensavers so much.

Quick facial rig test for use with Apple ARKit in Unreal Engine 5. Hair and materials are temporary, and so is everything else really. We're just getting started here.

I'm a huge fan of Zen Buddhism and also Stoicism. I believe the two lend to each other well. There's a phrase that I think the Stoics would've liked from the Zen Buddhists:
"Before Enlightenment : chop wood, carry water.
After Enlightenment : chop wood, carry water."
"Before Enlightenment : chop wood, carry water.
After Enlightenment : chop wood, carry water."

Our first game, Protoball, is a cult classic and we're SO excited to be remaking it. We'll probably start letting more public playtesters in this December, so follow and stay tuned!
Check this review out from one of the smartest, most perceptive, gamers to have tried our game!

I keep forgetting to post here I guess :shrug:
I've now become a hair stylist!
Really driving home this "Zach of all Trades" thing...
Also I'm really loving #houdini and can't wait to pour more time into it. Hair was made in H20 and video is in #UnrealEngine5 #ue5 #indiedev

In 2017 I set out for TwitchCon with a pre-alpha build and a dream. I don't know what I expected, but it was exceeded. So grateful for our community. Our first game Protoball is something of a cult classic, and we're very excited to let you know that the remake is happening!
