Attended a London indie game dev meet up and had such a great time. What a group of lovely people. 😀

[MARATHON] Beautiful. Mysterious. Inviting me to explore. [ME] Eager to drink in the environment and just exist in Tau Ceti IV. [STRANGER SHOVING A KNIFE INTO MY BODY 2 MINUTES AFTER THE MATCH STARTED] “Sorry bud…”

Let’s go Egypt!

*taps the sign*

Very proud to be doing tech art work on this!

It me and my family.

I love making art and writing code. Going through that process gives so much meaning to my life. Why someone would want to shortcut that and hurry up to the result… I just don’t understand.

Working on a small demo to show off the mode7 renderer for my custom game engine. github.com/joshuaskelly... #pixelart #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

Second win! I managed to do this with enemy intents hidden?!

Me when I pull out my everyday carry 3DS

I am charmed by how much my eight-year-old loves the Playdate. I caught him sneaking into my office before school to play on mine. “Dad I know I wasn’t supposed to be doing that, but can we please just talk about this game?” Sure kid. Always. ❤️

A GPU that doesn’t do what I tell it to do is a bad GPU.

Wild that thoughtfulness and intentionality in design is seen as unnecessary.

Fun read so far, but what the heck is up with this cover? It’s super confusing. Can you guess which book this is?

Love my kiddo. He’s intently flipping through the Monster Manual and grilling me on stat blocks. It’s like a nerd pop quiz that I’m failing horribly. 🤪❤️

It might be old fashioned but I’m old so here goes: Three resolutions/things to focus on.

Hunter is amazing! They made the animations in Delver a million times better.

Apropos of nothing, man I hate gen AI.

I should be polishing up my currently in progress tech demos, but what if I started a new feature instead?

I'm on vacation and had a free hour last night so I decided to start prototyping a mesh renderer for my custom game engine.

Me walking around Disney World: “Look at all this great stylized environment art.” Me one minute later: “World of Warcraft is just Disney World Fantasyland, huh?”

100% this. In my case, it was: make friends with my peers support their work and share my work with them. Maintain a casual correspondence. 10 years later when they’re an art director and I’m looking for a job they know exactly what I bring to the table.

Made vinyl stickers from some of my favorite pixel art pieces from this year.

Still looking for help on this

Android dev question: I have an older app on a no longer supported API level. I created a test track with an updated version of the app on the latest API level. BUT No one can join the test because the released version is still on the deprecated API level. 🤦‍♂️ Any help/suggestions appreciated.

Delver is $9.89 (34% off)! Now is a great time to pick it up if you haven't already. store.steampowered.com/app/249630/D...

Me after my first week at Nightdive seeing their roadmap and what I get to work on.

Beyond excited to share I’ve accepted a senior technical artist role at Nightdive!

I’m a game developer with two children and a house. Tim, I use whatever is cheapest.

I will always have a special place for libGDX, but its UI system hurts me. 😅

I’ve pledged $5 a month to support Blender! I got started with Blender 2.42 which is now almost 20 years ago! I’ve been fortunate to have the opportunity to develop tools and add-ons for Blender as part of my career.

❤️ wide pixels

Ive been working on the Delver mobile ports for about a month now? And mostly full time? Turns out I’m crushing it? Problems I’ve been worried about for years are getting fixed! Heck I even got stencil buffers working for our fancy low res glow/shadows.

Every "AI Game" video I see I'm just like, "Wait, doesn't procedural do this exact thing but WAY better?? We already solved this problem?"

I'm castpixel, a senior illustrator and art director with more than 20 years of experience (ok, it's 21 years). One of the best pixelartists working today. I'm looking for a project. Clients: WB Games, Minecraft, SEGA, HASBRO Hire me! I make your game look good. [ #portfolioday ]

Productive day! I’ve fixed iOS shader issues and Delver feels great on an iPhone!

📢 I'm looking for work! Seeking a Tech Artist role. 📢 I'm a creative thinker who loves empowering artists, building tools, and streamlining workflows/pipelines. I've been building software for 15+ years, so I know what I'm doing. [email protected] www.linkedin.com/in/joshua-skelton-029ab645

PSX wobbly verts eat your heart out! Also ignore the ominous pool of pure black liquid…

iOS looks like it needs a little shader love. 🤪 Any libGDX folks know where I should start looking?

I’m pretty happy with layout! Just need to put some time into Delver with it.

Progress is being made…

Ah. The responsible thing to do.

Lately I've been knocking the dust off of Delver Engine and working towards getting mobile builds going. So far it hasn't been _too_ bad, just normal levels of reviving a legacy code base. 😅

Did you know I wrote a set of command line tools for Quake? Did you know they are totally free and open source? Once in a while someone will throw a few bucks my way for these tools and every time it makes my day. 😃 joshua.itch.io/quake-tools

An old sprite cloud experiment i did, trying to recreate Samus Aran in Ballz 3d style, but using animated hex shapes

You probably shouldn’t dig stra.. aaaah! Love seeing the progress on this project.
