Some days the world feels scary. When the war started, my hand was shaking on the mouse but I kept animating. Even now, with an unclear future I still animate. It's one of the few things I can control. I put my heart into characters, hoping to create games that show a more beautiful world.❤️

I'm gonna analyze some more game animations and there's not a single thing you or ANYONE can do to stop me #animation youtu.be/LUzB8zYLn_s

It's been a month since I started learning Godot, I'm really loving the engine! Super satisfying, I'm very happy with the progress working a few hours a week on my free time. Once I'm done with this sandbox I'll release it as a Live Wallpaper for Android. (still lots of ideas to test!) #Godot

How Ghost of Yotei & Tsushima are Animated with Autodesk Maya

Tie a know

More screens from our PS2-style magical action platformer! #screenshotsaturday #gamedev #indiedev

Ok this is now an Android project lol Locking to 30 fps and starting to rewrite the movement to not rely on physics anymore. This capture is still using physics forces to repel the crabs bodies. #godot

🦀 Another week, another Wicked Animation — back from vacation! 🔆 Here are some fresh critter animations for those not-so-little crabs… 😁 No Rest for the Wicked by Moon Games Studio #animation #gamedev #3d #game #3danimation

Forget about everything. Just focus on your goal and you'll get there, Nil.

I do embroidery animation, a rare enough medium for people to follow me

Spider-Man WIP animation... or a 'thWIP' animation

Another video showing how to study and use reference, and when to let it go. And also to reemphasise the importance of blocking and experimentation before moving to spline and polish. reference footage from ericjacobus.bsky.social #animation #mentoring animdiversityfund.bsky.social

Happy Odaiba Memorial Day! did a redraw of that fateful moment!🐵 #デジモン #Digimon #art #8月1日メモリアル2025 #お台場メモリアル

Happy Aug 1st to all Digimon Lovers ~ 🥰 #digimon

🏹💥 Collab with the awesome, one and only, @nilnavaei.bsky.social !! Did some explosive stuff on an explosive animation. And @clo-sch.bsky.social added some wicked sound on top. What a team, go give them some love :D Very proud of what we made!

Daily pose practice Normal vs Pushed

Finally, new animation! I started this almost 4(!!) years ago to practice animating on 2s & get more comfortable animating hands. This piece has taken so long that I don't know if I've leveled up, but finishing it matters more than perfection. Music: Pop Culture by Madeon

I feel cute ~ 💅

Some days I feel like I'm the worst animator and today is one of those days.

I built state machine for idle/ run/ stop. Still rough but fun to share! 🎮 Do you know good resources to learn UE specially AnimBP? ✍️ P.s: I changed UE editor splash 😎 #UnrealEngine #Animation #GameDev #ドラクエ #ブループリント #3DCG #gamedev #3danimation #dragonquest

Our next feature artist/tutorial for today is this BEAUTY by the awesome @shermcohen on how to PUSH YOUR POSES! Although sometimes of course you want to convey a subtler emotion, when you need to go BIG these ideas will help :) #animationdev #gamedev #characterdesign #SpongeBob

This might be a shot in the dark but are there any animators with ADHD and are diagnosed or assessed with ASD? If so please shoot me a DM or comment below! I’d love to ask you some questions!

Made a fan teaser for our D&D campaign: using game map, and some carefully chosen YouTube footage to capture the world's cold, eerie vibe. ❄️ I'm ready to take freelance editing projects too! Trailers, teasers,SM content for games 🎮 #VideoEditing #GameTrailer #FreelanceEditor #IndieGame #GameDev

🗓️ Day 02 of making Dream Quest ⚔️ Today I learned an important lesson: Every gameplay animation needs a plan. As a gameplay animator, it's these challenges that help me grow! 🎮✨ 🗓️ Dream Quest、2日目！⚔️ 今日は大事なことに気づきました。🎮✨ #3danimation #gamedev #unrealengine #UE5 #3dcg #indiedev #3Dアニメーション

Unreal and CommonUI completely broke my spirit for like 2 weeks, but finally getting back on the wagon to finish a few basic UI elements.. Ended up just writing my own UI menu & input nav logic entirely just so I can move forward again. Ugh. #gamedev

Back in 2018, I was working on an RPG inspired by the Paper Mario series. I don't think I'll end up finishing this game, but I figured I could share the demo that I had put together anyway. #gamedev Blog post and demo here! 🔽 adamgryu.itch.io/paper-game/d...

Work in Progress #animation

🗓 Day 1 of making Dream Quest! Today I animated a walk cycle and two idle anims. This is my personal adventure as a gameplay animator and a lifelong #DragonQuest fan in UE. Dream Quest、1日目！ この冒険、一緒に進んでくれたら嬉しいな！ #indiedev #3danimation #gamedev #3dcg

Any Dragon Quest fans here? #dragonquest #crossstitch

Yeaaaay I've done it! 🥰🪡🧵

Trying new things... Like Cross Stitch 🪡🧵

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (2006) horse animation with lead character animator Christiane Meister. Awesome to see an animator so in love with the subject.

People sometimes ask me how I animate cameras — I wish I could say there’s a master plan, but I improvise as I go. Tweaking the FOV helps shape what the viewer sees — more of the world, or a close-up. From outside the camera, the scene’s usually a mess (*ﾉ▽ﾉ)

I’ve been reviewing some portfolio submissions at work to help HR and wanted to throw a few random ideas out into the wind.

I'm looking for my next adventure! Open to freelance, remote part time and full time! 🎮 My reel is private due to NDA but I’d be happy to DM it if you’d like to check it out 🎨 ArtStation: www.artstation.com/nilnavaei #gamedev #indiegamedev #lookingforjob #animator #opentowork
