As a coral reef ecologist by training, this is the single-greatest heartbreak of my otherwise blessed life: the extinction of the greatest ecosystems on earth, in our lifetime, with full knowledge it would happen, because humans love fascism & tat more than life 💔 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Progress on the detective game experiment made with @godotengine.org Using custom post-process, a secondary camera for the magnifying glass which can reveal hidden clues and to be able to study objects seamlessly... It's been fairly smooth so far, I'm enjoying the Godot experience 😊

#MaterialMaker 1.4 (#GodotEngine based PBR material authoring and 3D model texturing tool) is now available on @itchio . It is based on Godot 4, had a huge UI redesign and has quite a few new nodes. rodzilla.itch.io/material-mak...

Second @godotengine.org experiment, this time working on interior lighting, trying to mimick detective games... I found it a bit harder than I expected to get decent results, but it's starting to look all right I think Got around to playing with stencils which is fun 😊(work in progress)

Spent a few days on my first @godotengine.org experiment, a Star Wars themed environment, with basic movement and shooting mechanics. Learning a lot 🙂

Day 1 of playing with @godotengine.org , focusing on its rendering capabilities: 1/ It definitely can look really good 2/ Standard material is absolutely great, so many features ...

The Play for Peace: Games for Palestine charity bundle is now live! Nearly 400 games from creators all around the world, with proceeds going directly to Gaza relief efforts. Bundle link: itch.io/b/2979/play-... We made a launch trailer to celebrate this moment👇 Please RT.

Little experiment that uses MaterialMaker, Ucupaint, @blender3d.bsky.social & @sidefx.bsky.social

Le nouvel épisode de How to compose est disponible sur Youtube ! Cette fois on s'attaque à Outer Wilds ! youtu.be/G4FZcscxjow?... #vgm #composition #OuterWilds

My latest coding adventure is now up on YT -- some experiments with ray-tracing glass and water, and the cool caustics they can cause youtu.be/wA1KVZ1eOuA?...

It's all fun and games until … "Professor Gina Neff of Queen Mary University London told the BBC #ChatGPT is "burning through energy", and the data centres used to power it consume more electricity in a year than 117 countries." www.bbc.com/news/article...

Back to making some art, started a set of houses for In the Same Boat, aiming at very stylized shapes, low poly and vertex color only (a triplanar noise texture adds a bit of detail) 🙂 #Blender #Unity

The National Park Service has removed "T" and all mention of transgender people from the Stonewall National Monument. Trans women were some of the most influential activists behind the Stonewall movement and what followed. 3 articles of clothing laws were why raids happened. Erasure.

Yes please, check out this sweet & sour, absurd, bubble-powered short text adventure, we're very proud of it! #pico8 #gamedev #GlobalGameJam

I made this stylized scene for @halisavakis.com's #TechnicallyAChallenge on the theme "Brunch" 🥐 #Blender #NPR #StylizedArt

Gen ai is poisoning our power grid, stealing intellectual property, using precious water, and ruining the internet with unreliable information and garbage imagery. Don't use it, and don't normalize it, even for laughs.

For our wedding, my wife and I made a small hand-drawn game that retraced our lives and how we met every single guest, featuring everyone's drawing of themselves. Lots of fun ! 😁💍🎮

Hiya! I'm MarechalBanane, French indie dev making silly games with lots of love and big pixels in #pico8. I made Will The Man Get Frog, a cute, semi-random haiku writing game. 🐸✍️ t.ly/R54w2 I'm now working on Picoguessr 🗺️🎯, and I have more free stuff at marechalbanane.itch.io. Nice to meet y'all!

Hello everyone, I'm super happy to see the game dev community moving over here, let's build something nice! 😊 I'll have some game-related things to share soon, in the meantime here's a 3D project, a recreation of Gauguin's studio on the Te Fenua Ènata islands. All done in Blender!

Started setting up a starter pack for technical and vfx artists here! It's not conclusive yet, I'll update it as I go, but it should be a great start to find some awesome artists ✨ go.bsky.app/Bih7pqu

Made some progress on my vehicle building project made in Unity... Trying to think of the silliest possible parts that can be used to make contraptions 😁

Here's my first game dev post here ! 🎮 Spent a couple of hours making a prototype for an editor that allows you to build and test physically simulated vehicles, with custom key bindings for each part. Should allow for some fun challenges ! 🙂

Another day, another Houdini experiment 🌩️

This time, trying my hand at some fire and rigidbody simulations, using Houdini 🔥

Trying my hand at Houdini simulations and rendering... It's very different from Blender, but I love the freedom it brings !

Hello Bluesky ! 👋 My name is Vincent, I'm indie dev and 3D artist, and I'll share some of my work and experiments here : game dev, 3D art, VFX, sims, etc.
