I got the stylized spindash model working in-engine using a kind of goofy/jank rendering trick. (The model representing the outline is flattened along the view axis. It's imperfect and occasionally prone to occlusion by the sphere, but it also doesn't require any stencil mask nonsense.)

Think I've come to terms that I'm actually VERY good at understanding the technical limitations of 3D modeling, and my ability to develop complex and specific rigs is well beyond normal for my level of experience.

Working on solving a very broad enemy design problem.

This is my New Years resolution

happy new yappy

I locked the fuck in and figured out how to procedurally mirror bezier and nurbs curves in Blender.

Lot of recent stuff with MH Wilds is distant from the diagetic aspects, but something really cool is that during lightning storms the villagers in Kunafa hide in their homes and you can't interact with them. Has me think about what if other settlements behaved similarly during a state of emergency.

im starting to think this is too many pills to be taking each day

didn't watch it last year, not watching it this year, won't be watching it the next year

I love watching others learn 3D modelling because its such an exercise in problem-solving. Folks who're new to it don't have fancy tricks, in-depth familiarity, or convenient plugins ready to whip out every time they need a complicated shape. You can practically see the gears spinning as they work.

Working on Multimesh+ for my game, a simple multimesh editor in #GodotEngine. Add, delete, scale, and paint. MM+ is designed to facilitate the editing of multimesh instances and divide them on a grid for 3D culling. All available on GitHub :)

it occurs to me that since Adventure 2 we haven't really seen Sonic show up in any united federation regions very often if ever and that's for obvious brand synergy nonsense but i like to think its because he's still wanted by the government

Little late, but something I'm thankful for this year is the connections other people have made with me. Both in the sense that my social life is more active and vibrant than before, and that people have thought enough of my talents to reach out to me for collaboration. I feel wanted.

If i had a nickel for every time I was blindsided by old man yaoi this year I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but its weird it happened twice.

for various reason i have drawn this omega plenates please enjoy

"Kill your darlings" that ain't nothing. I put my darlings in Gu Ritual.

i think its entirely possible that anyone whos ever said anything bad about sakurai is going to hell

I'm considering the possibility that I might actually fucking hate listening to Sonic fans talk about Sonic's character design because everyone is too caught up in theory instead of making things from their heart

🔥Flames Shader In Godot4.5 #godot #vfx #shader #gamedev ##indiedev

I think its extremely special that Simon never discards or grows past using the Core Drill. It's extremely clear by the end of Gurren Lagann that he doesn't strictly need it. But he always holds on to it because spiral power is fundamentally sentimental.

Wanted to show off a demo of all those HUD face sprites I've been making for Treasure Tech Land! #GZDOOM #DOOM

Barry the Quokka and his Miles Edgeworth equivalent Larry the Hyrax

check it out, little greens!

monster hunter should be like viva pinata where you can attract monsters to a pinata garden (locale) that attract other monsters, or kill monsters that are scaring away or smashing all the other pinatas (monsters)

When love and death embrace #artpost #batman

just guessing but i think Knights of Guinnivere is probably going to be thematically about intellectual copyright and the concepts of "owning" a character, the way those characters inspire fans to do more outside the "owners", and the hostile force corporations wield to maintain complete control

I think there's probably something beyond hope. Once you overcome struggles enough times, to overcome is just an inevitable reality. You don't even need hope at that point, you'll march on anyway without even realizing. How you choose to feel about it is just a matter of taste.

I think the Bomberman act zero design is cool, everyone else is wrong (mostly joking, -mostly) #Marsh星Art

eight less teeth today than i had yesterday lets fucking gooooo

what the fuck is wrong with gumroad that when i try to type capital letters for my email address it interprets that as moving my typing position to the last letter

kirby air riders does not feel real. it's completely dissonant with the reality ive lived up until this point (in a good way)

I made a face rig for Sonic that can handle switching between side-mouth, front-mouth, or whatever. The weight painting is pretty shit and it'll need a lot more work for complicated facial expressions but it surprisingly isn't a complete topology nightmare.

evo good next year more evo

(real fucking scenario that just happened) doctor: "yeah we tested you for sleep apnia. we can do this even when you aren't physically present. you don't really have the sleep apnia vibe."

I've honestly been in kind of q creative rut and I want to find collaborative work out of hope that will help, but I feel like when one of your best skills is coding for games the opportunities suck. Most places where collaboration is advertised are drowning with obviously bad people to work with.

whatever. behold my Rorb

E-123 Omega boot-up sequence

I don't wish to make a habit of focusing on negative shit, cause who needs that vibe. But like. Put this into perspective, I have 260 muted phrases and it's not enough to filter out people's rampant bitching and doomer attitudes. Grass cannot help these people because it will never be green enough.

im actually doing a good job right now of getting my life together so could ya'll stop trying so goddamn hard to make me fucking miserable

oh we're ALREADY getting death stranding 2 spoilers on the feed, cool cool cool cool cool cool cool..
