Some Star Trek fleet commish updates from last night - bridge work and prepping for saucer lines. I'm quite fond of this thing.

not the biggest takeaway from the Epstein files but it has made me wonder if I've been working too hard on my own emails

Back to the Barn - Penultimate Star Trek short shot! It's almost done - I just need to re-render the whole thing. :P Brand-new VO work by Baldwin Williams Jr. This shot was a monster to render. 4K in the 🧵! Enjoy!

Across the Plane of Fire

Mary Shelley: sup fuckers Poe: joanne was explaining death of the author Poe: what do you think, mary Shelley: death of the author eh? Shelley: [brandishing swicthblade] i think it's a good idea Rowling: i Rowling: i have to go

Concept art for the Drexler class! A Picard-era reimagining of the NX-01, filled to the brim with references and nods to ships of the era, and of course named in tribute to the legendary Doug Drexler himself! Art Director: Phil Dunne, Concept Lead: @adriaalvarado.art #StarTrek #ConceptArt

I'm no hater of games made with UE5 but not enough of them are using the engine to make awesome mysterious orbs when that is clearly what it excels at

For #throwbackthursday how about when I picked up an Ouya for $20 expecting it to be a paperweight because the service was long gone, only to discover fan-run archival servers keeping it going! Read more in my old article here: retrorgb.com/how-to-get-y...

TIE Fighter Total Conversion in VR with a VR controller interactable cockpit is phenomenal. God I love this game, it's so cool re-visiting it like this.

Made a quick utility to auto-generate a rope tightly wrapped around arbitrary geometry. Supports odd shapes and multiple objects. Had the idea for this simple algorithm while taking a walk, and it worked a lot better than expected.🪢 #GodotEngine #gamedev #indiedev

Okay, this is a massive re-render of this scene, with bespoke, actual voice work by Balwin Williams Jr - Tons of improvements and tweaks, and I really like how it ended up looking and sounding. I hope you like it!

You know another cool thing about Mesh Partition, being able to just use PCG to directly modify the Mesh Landscape!

Updated overhead Tycho 1/350 Fleet photo with Starseeker joining the group:

For as many times as I've photographed the Radiant-class, this is one angle I don't think I've captured before. I dig it.

I made a companion rover for my @mooneysart.bsky.social inspired road sweeper last month. The small garbage truck will keep your cyberpunk streets clean. #LEGO #レゴ #cyberpunk

B-Wings (again, I make no apologies) I love these ships ever since they made their appearence in ROTJ. #Lightwave3d render of @howieeday.bsky.social 's model.

So much of concept work is meat and potatoes props. But that work is fun and fills a space! The palette team on Marathon did a brilliant job bringing my concepts to life 💙

I can't get over how great this is

An older idle of mine, but still a favorite Topaz #art #pixelart #animation #oc

silly dogfighter I made in 3 days for a game jam silly half-baked mechanic too. you collect fishbones (trash) and crystals and can use either as ammo. But I still love the 2.5D presentation castpixel.itch.io/junkstar

Huge Star Trek shot update! Fixed all sorts of issues, added some cool VFX to the scrubbing action, and fixed the lighting angles. High-sample render, working on the SFX now! Enjoy, and suggestions are welcome!

We've had a fully functional demo of our Advance Wars style game, 'Skies of Chaos: Battlefields' for a while. But I might re-do the maps in 3d/lowpoly, but keeping the 2d sprites. Needs something more to visually stand out 🧐🤔. #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev

bsky loves to ruing the quality of gifs... will this video fair any better!....

A bit more progress on this zelda inspired tileset. Feeling nice and lush so far. Not quite happy with the grass yet - already done a lot of versions! but coming together! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev

Next up is to figure out a design for the player character! #pixelart #gamedev #indiedev

low-poly laws dictate that this rat must be an important character (enviro rats don't get bones nor textures above 32px size).

Star Trek shot update! Some of the timing on the scrubber masks got f'd up, but I'll fix that in the next go round. Also, I feel like the lighting angle shifts a bit *too* much over the course of the shot. I'll tone that down. Enjoy, and suggestions are welcome!

Another WIP Star Trek shot! This one will have a voiceover commenting on how they managed to prevent all but very minor damage, then you have these workbees in floor polish mode. :D Suggestions welcome!

Polishing my chrome Star Trek logo collection.

Yes! There is an extension mod you can play now, where within the SC2 arcade, you can play with both SC1 or SC2 factions, on any multiplayer map. And there are SC1 vs SC2 tournaments. They also are making some campaign mission remakes too in the future. More info: liquipedia.net/starcraft2/U...

This was a quick inspirational painting using a #Homeworld 2 background by the legendary Rob Cunningham as a base and staging the new HW 3 style of missile frigates I was developing with Aaron Kambeitz.

For many months, Blizzard had had to suspend users publishing custom SC2 maps for good reason, which killed some of the public momentum for the Evo Complete mod since the makers were no longer able to push regular art asset updates. Now, map publishing is back! So expect more of this sort of thing:

Damn, okay, so my spouse just got let go from work. If anyone has any need for / leads on Tucson or remote office management, tech support, or video editing they have 15+ years of experience and their DMs are open: @cryngeisdead.bsky.social

Finally added some impact effects to astroids. #gamedev #screenshotsaturday

What I like most about spending years establishing a career in games and tv is that both industries are competing to see who can collapse faster

the video game industry is a mess
